My skincare routines to combat pimples

Most of the time, i have two skincare routines. First one is for combating acne, and second one is my daily skincare. What about you? Do you have different skincares too? Lately my skin breaks out, due to the hormonal change and stress >,< Pimples appear on my cheek and they hurt very much T.T

Yikess!! Pimpleee...

This acne - combating skincare routines starts from face cleanser. First i wipe off all eye make up with this PIXY eye make up cleanser, and continuing this routine with Sariayu pembersih kenanga. 

After that is facial foam from Clean and clear. It is esssentials foaming wash. Sometimes, when it breaks out really heavily, i use ASEPSO brand. My friend from Singapore got me these soap and i like it very much. I can tell that it dries up my pimples very quickly. It is available in Indonesia too, tho. Asepso soap has a sulfur smell, but it doesnt left my skin feel tacky dry after wash, unlike another sulfur soap. After face cleanser, i also tone my face with clean and clear toner. Toning is important to make sure you don`t have any dirt left and also minimize your pores.

I also scrub my face two times in a week. This process is to exfoliate any dead skin therefore preventing new acne to come. But don`t scrub your face when you got pimples, because it is only going to make it worse. After the acnes are completely healed, then, you can start exfoliating your face.

And now, down to moisturizer part. I use this clean and clear whitening moisturizer. Lightweight, and also have salycic acid to help cure the pimples. I like it very much. Then, for the eyes, i use BIOKOS eye cream. I use this on a regular basis, both on daily skincare or in this acne combating skincare. I also use wardah acne treatment care and apply it right on the pimple spot. It is very affordable and is a good treatment. Lastly, i use L`oreal white perfect night cream. This too, i use on regular basis :). I tried my best not to skip night cream, so my face stays supple on the next day. 

That is my skincare routine on combating acne. How about you?

Skin care review: Clean and Clear Moisturizer

Long time ago, I read in Gadis magazine ( a local girl magazine), that this moisturizer was recommended for combination skin. That was when I was 15 hahaha. After reading, I picked this moisturizer for the first moisturizer that I have ever had. I was happened to use this for quite a long time before I changed my preference to Olay and L`oreal. Here are my thoughts about this product

What  I like about Clean and Clear moisturizer

-          OIL FREE! Yay

-          Non comedogenic

-          Nice fragrant. I ussually don’t like fragrant in my cosmetics, but for this one, I kinda like how it smells. The smell fades as soon as you put on this moisturizer

-          It comes in a tube. I prefer tube instead of jar for one reason. HYGIENIC. It doesn’t seem right for me to dip my finger day by day, leaving bacterias to grow inside my moisturizer.

-          Very affordable, around 15OOO – ish for 60 ml ( price may vary)

-           It doesnt break me out

-          My room mate has a problem with zits, after using this product, she said her zits are reduced. Hmm, good testimoni, huh? Well, this product does say that it prevents blemishes

-          Has salycic acid

What I don’t like about this moisturizer

-          It doesn’t give me that moisturizing and supple effect much

-          It doesn’t have SPF, so I have to put on a second layer of sunscreen when I wanna go outdoors

I would recommend this for teenagers who doesn’t like to wear a heavy make up. This moisturizer is light- feel. Nice for everyday use. It is also great for those who have an oily or combination skin.
