THE FACE | OILY / ACNE PRONE SKIN MOISTURISERS

Moisturisers are key to have the best skin you can possibly have. Not only it will nourish the skin but also slow down ageing and giving back the hydration that the skin needs in order to function. I'm not claiming to know everything nor being a professional aesthetician but I've learned a whole lot of things in the search for the moisturiser that works best for my oily / acne prone skin. 

CURRENT FAVOURITES | Skincare Add-Ons For Acne - Prone Skin

My skin has its ups and downs but recently, I think I've found the products that works great with my skin. Technically speaking, I still have pigmented scarring from previous acne but one thing I'm happy about is the texture of my skin is even! It makes makeup application a lot flawless. 

BEAUTY GRAB | Avene Skincare for Acne Prone Skin

Another brand added to my list of to try products for acne prone skin. I know for the longest time, one of the main reasons that I break out is because of constant change of products I use. I did manage to stick to one product for the entire year but I got bored. I did however managed to find that gentle products works great on my skin, therefore I'm only sticking to products that are also suitable for sensitive skin.

TRAVEL SKINCARE MUST-HAVES FOR MY ACNE-PRONE SKIN

I spent the last week of 2015 out of town with family and it was amazing! A much needed getaway to relax and unwind. My skin was not doing so well for the past couple of months, one because i'm trying a bunch of stuff that caused irritation to my skin, two I stopped using my holy grail products which is the dumbest move I've ever made! I also managed to get a sunburn on my face on Christmas Day which is a bit sad. I did put on sunscreen but I guess it wasn't strong enough to be able to protect my face against New Zealand sun. Oh what a bummer!

Pin-pointing Acne With Spot Treatments

For the longest time, I have been suffering from acne. However this year by far is the worst. Last year was indeed a joy when I started using the Loreal Skin Perfection range. It dramatically changed my whole skin. Fast forward a couple of months later, it all went downhill when I started trying out new products. My skin did not like it and decided to have a breakout party! Mind you it wasn't just a breakout, but it got to the point where its cystic acne and would stay for months! I knew I had to bust out my good old spot treatment products. One tip I can give is finding the solution / ingredients that works great for your skin. Mine happened to be sulfur, zinc, and salicylic  acid. 

THE FACE | Barely There Base for Acne Prone Skin

Finding a good lightweight foundation for acne prone skin has become a struggle for me. I would find that mosts tinted moisturizers will only give me a hint of color covering almost nothing. Back in the day, I used to suffer from cystic acne where bumps would forever stay in my face making my foundation look patchy and caked up. One other reason I used to stay away from tinted moisturizer is because of my oily skin. At the end of the day, all the coverage have moved / melted away and it's one of the embarrassing thing I've experienced! So I was a massive fan of full coverage foundation, not till later where I started feeling that my skin couldn't breathe.
