I’m having the biggest problem with blemishes around my jawline, I’ve tried most things so far and really struggling to find the perfect routine, any advice or product recommendations to help a girl out? X
#MeAndCeraVe - since I was a teenager I've had combination and blemish-prone skin. It's quite frustrating when you have no control over your skin no matter all the efforts. I've always read and researched a lot about ingredients and formulas that could help, and finding out about the power of Salicylic Acid and the effect it had on my skin was the biggest turning point in my skincare history. At the time I used another salicylic acid cleanser that was quite effective but pricey and not easy to find, often out of stock and this worried me a lot. I remember it was my little sister who introduced me to CeraVe. She once came back from her shopping with this big white and blue bottle of cleanser advised by her dermatologist. She had proper acne and in a few months this cleanser worked wonders for both of us. Not only it was effective and gentle on skin, but it smelled good and the format was long-lasting. We've stuck with the brand since then and we love it. Thank you so much, CeraVe 💙🩵💚
I’ve always struggled with what seemed to be blackheads, but after educating myself on skincare, I realised that these were just sebaceous filaments and I just needed to cleanse my skin properly. After a couple of years, now I can share my tried and tested tips with you to avoid skin impurities. My top Cerave products would be Oil cleanser and Blemish control cleanser.
💚Always double cleanse
💚Ditch the makeup wipes
💚Incorporate BHA like salicylic acid into your routine. It cleans the walls of the pores resulting in no gunk/oil being trapped in the pores which can turn into pimples. AHA and BHA helps exfoliate the skin chemically meaning clearer looking skin.
💚Ditch the physical exfoliation
💚If you can’t tolerate salicylic acid then use it in a cleanser - much more gentle.
💚Use a moisturiser with niacinamide in it. Helps control sebum and appearance of pores.
💚Last but not least, always use SPF during the day.
