Hey loves! It’s been a week since I started this journey and I honestly want to say… “WHEW!” Adult acne is seriously scary to me because it threw a monkey wrench in something I was so sure of for 38 years… my skin! For the majority of my life, I haven’t had to worry about acne and prided myself on my smooth, flawless, melanin.
Thanks to my awesome followers, you guys gave me some great suggestions on how to fight this thing. I decided to start with the simplest suggestions, which were: increasing my water intake, using an exfoliator made with natural ingredients, and a nightly aloe face mask.
Read the beginning of the journey here.
After a week with this regimen, the results are in! My acne is just about GONE! I noticed the reduction immediately after my first application. Using the aloe face mask nightly is something I think I will continue to do. I absolutely LOVED the exfoliator. It made my skin feel brand new! If you want the recipe, click here. And the glow that is in my skin now!!! WOW! I’ve created a daily slideshow to show you guys the progress using my aloe regimen below.
So what’s next? I still want to achieve truly clear skin. I need to get rid of these blackheads and even out my tone. The aloe does a great job evening tone and as I stated, I will be continuing the aloe mask. I was also considering the exfoliating scrub at least 4 times a week (I’m afraid to do it nightly as it may cause irritation… iono). So, I need your help again ladies. What can help me clear out blackheads? Leave a suggestion in the comments and we’ll see what next week brings!
