Struggling with annoying, stubborn pimples? Get ready to say "Ciao", because I'm going to share a few of my favorite products that ACTUALLY work quickly and effectively.
1) MARIO BADESCU buffering lotion $19 & drying mask $18
We all know Mario's drying lotion, but these two products are being slept on! Using these two products, in conjunction ,are a life saver for cystic or stubborn acne. First, apply the buffering lotion to clean, dry skin. After the product has settled on the skin, apply the drying mask over it. Wait 15-20 mins and remove the mask with warm water. (You can leave it on longer, but risk drying out your skin). Apply the buffering lotion again and leave it on overnight.
You should wake up with a significant improvement. You can repeat the process 1-3 times per week until you have achieved your desired results.
2) SAND & SKY Australian pink clay mask $50
THIS MASK, you guys!!! I can't tell you how many times I have seen this mask advertised, and eventually I just gave in and got it (best decision ever). My skin been riding the struggle ever since the pandemic, and I basically woke up with new pimples (some cystic) every day... until, you guessed it, this mask. It basically pulls out any impurities, dries your pimples out, and leaves your skin brighter, smoother, and refined. I can honestly say that after a week of use, I was genuinely impressed.
Definitely add this to your skincare routine to improve and maintain your skin. (They are always running specials/ sales)
3) MIGHTY PATCH $12.50
Labeled as "your blemish hero", I can confidently say, it has been mine. Mighty patch comes with 36 little patches, supercharged with ingredients to diminish any pimple. You just stick it on your troubled spots, go to sleep, and wake up a brand new b*tch. These powerful little patches draw out impurities and are great if you find yourself picking at your pesky bumps, not allowing them to heal. It is a simple, effective fix. 10/10 would recommend.
4) Witch Hazel Toner
Cleanse, condition, and balance your pores with witch hazel toner. Witch hazel is the best toner, hands down, if you want to have clear skin. Add it to your skincare regimen and to maximize results.
and there you have it
