Going au naturel: A year later!
21:14:00
If you've been following my blog for a while, you migth remember that last year I have struggled with my second bout of adult acne. As with teenager acne, sometimes it seemed to be going to clear, only for other zits to pop out a few days later. It all felt like a carrot dangling in front of me, only to be removed when I was close to getting it. :(
The first time I had adult acne, it was hormonal and I got it cleared pretty much easily once I have discovered the Malki Mud Mask Soap. But this time, nothing really worked. They helped, but they didn't solved the problem.
I actually found the root of the acne at random. I might get into it in another post, as it is quite personal and not really physically related.
The only thing I can say for now is that once I have found out what was causing it, it was pretty much gone! That and also another physical problem that started at the same time (it was in September 2012). And I have been pretty much spotless (haha!) ever since, last July. Well, except for that monthly spot...
So it's been exactly a year since I have posted that "au naturel" picture on the Internet:
And this is what my skin looks now!
I also really been loving the Skin Regime Boot Camp Peel. I had my first treatment for a few weeks last summer, and I was quite impressed with how it improved my scarring. Now that it has been a few months, I'm redoing an update treatment, to help with some leftover scars that I had the first time, and for one or two monthly spots ones I had since. I don't know why but the spots I had since the beginning of the second bout tend to leave bad scars. So I like that the peel makes them disapear!
Minimal makeup to let my skin show! |
With my new fresh skin, I don't need to use as much foundation as last year. I am in fact pretty happy to let it shine and do the talking! When I want to be appear more polished, I mainly go towards my BB creams or tinted moisturisers. Bless my skin!
