Sigh my acne problem is never going to go away =( I have no idea why my skin became so bad. I used to hardly have any acne.
I finished quite a few products recently. So proud of myself for being able to finish my stash bit by bit without buying anymore.
I finished my
bio-essence bio-hydra eye and lip makeup remover. It's this dual layer remover, typical of many eye and lip makeup removers. I'm actually thinking of repurchasing this, because it can remove my super super waterproof and stubborn Fasio mascara well, and it doesn't sting my eyes too if i accidentally get it inside my eyes. One thing I don't like is the fragrance, but it doesn't seem to irritate my skin, so I can bear with it. Oh, and it does leave an oily film behind. But that's not a problem because I double cleanse anyway. My eye makeup remover now is Maybelline's, which I don't like as much simply because it can't remove waterproof mascaras as well as bio-essence's. I spend alot more time pressing a soaked cotton pad to my eyes longer. But what I do like is that it doesn't leave an oily film, doesn't sting my eyes and doesn't have a strong fragrance.
Second thing I finished is my L'oreal Derma Genesis toner. I have not much to review about this, because it seems to be a so-so toner, meaning, I don't see any positive results, nor do I see any negative results. It seems pretty mild, doesn't sting my skin even when my skin was sensitive and peeling due to Diacneal use. It's marketed as a pore-minimising toner, but my pores are still as huge as ever.
Third item that I completed is another L'oreal toner. It's the
L'oreal Pure Zone toner. This is much stronger and harsher than the derma genesis one. It contains way more alcohol, and can be very dehydrating to people with normal to dry skin. It also has salicylic acid, which makes sense, because this toner is made for blemish skin. I freaking LOVE this toner. I used to break out a long time ago, but after using the daily scrub from the same range, together with this toner, my skin stayed clear. This range is discontinued anyway, which is so upsetting. When I finished the Pure Zone scrub and couldn't find it around anymore, I started having a little more breakout than usual. Then when I finished the toner as well, BAM! I start breaking out like crazy. I do know that Pure Zone products are the things that are keeping my skin clear for so long. I used 3 tubes of the scrub and 3 bottles of the toner, if I remember correctly, which equates to clear skin for a little over a year. Why did L'oreal discontinue this?????? ='(
