How to Get Rid of Acne Fast
If you are reading this, Trust me . . . I know the struggle. I'm going to show you how to get rid of your acne fast!
All throughout High School, I never once had to deal with full blown Acne. A few blemishes here and there were normal for me, however It wasn't until after I had my two children that my smooth supple skin had changed it's course of action.
After the birth of my lovely daughter, the skin on my face took a turn for the worst & I tried everything to battle it. I've used products such as clean & clear, Neutrogena & even Proactiv! My cheeks & T-Zone break out so badly now that I needed to find something that actually works for my skin!
So, why does this happen to me?! I just had to know so I did a bit of research & asked a pharmacist that I work with... It turns out that my hormones are no longer in balance & my skin is overproducing Sebum. Your skin produces sebum as a way to moisturize when it thinks there isn't enough.Which is why a lot of us battle Oily skin. "The most common explanation for acne vulgaris is that increased sebum production leads to increased follicular plugs, which clog pores and cause acne."
On a whim one day, I took a short gander in my local Lush Shop and found two amazing products that have actually worked to keep my acne in check! I purchased a bar of Coal Face soap (which costs around $13/100 g) and was lucky enough to be given a small sample of the Lush Vanishing cream. (The vanishing cream is a bit more expensive, but well worth it as a little goes a long way. It costs $42.95 for a 45 g bottle) I thought to myself... Psh, I don't need to moisturize. I am SO glad that I started and I'll never look back!
I use both of these products twice daily, once in the morning & once at night after washing off all of my makeup. The coal face soap works into a nice lather, with small bits of charcoal that gently exfoliate and deeply cleanse your pores. This soap is extremely effective at washing all those built up impurities away.
I honestly think the vanishing cream is what saved my skin. This is a rich, thick moisturizer that keeps my skin hydrated for hours. At first I thought it was going to feel heavy and cakey underneath my makeup, however it absorbs extremely fast and doesn't make a huge difference other than my makeup going on 10 x smoother! The vanishing cream moisturizes the skin and helps the body regulate when sebum is released from your pores.
In only one week, the skin on my T-zone has cleared and i feel more confident without makeup than ever before! I am so happy to be able to share my success with these two amazing products!
