Hi there.
My skin condition getting worst
My face will suddenly pop-out pimples, sometimes its very oily during the evening time.
During morning time, my face will very very dry like very tight ? 0.0
Left side face with many scars and some pimpes.
Right side now getting more small pimples

Whenever i went to facial, they will said my face getting worst.
from oily skin > sensitive skin
they also push me to buy ampulse? 0.0 for balancing back my skin?

I'm using Herbaline products and almost finish.
was thinking to change skin products.
Any recommendation ?

Thank you so muchh

i am no beautician but happy to share my experiences.

having skin conditions dosent mean have to use expensive skincare products, but to use the correct product that suits your skin condition.

i too had this blemish problem sometime ago, seen many beauticians, used many products and drag for about 2 years (imagine that). and finally, simple cleanser and hydration does the trick.

my solution:
daily morning cleanser = normal rm12 facial cleanser + toner
daily evening cleanser = normal rm15 daily exfoliating cleanser (microbeads) + toner
weekly deep cleansing = Dr G exfoliate (gowensessang i think, korean) + deep cleansing mask, this combination can do 2x a week if skin very oily.

and remember to change to clean pillow case every few days.

hope it helps

yeahh. agree with use the correct products that suit my skin condition

may i know what brand you're using for the daily morning and evening cleanser?
i tried garnier's products last time, but pop-out more pimples ><
should i use the pimple cream ?

yes i do change clean pillow case every fews day.
hope it's really work i spent lot of money on skin care products
thank you so much

morning cleanser = now Himalaya Purifying Neem Foaming Face Wash dont really like it, make skin very dry, previously using ordinary biore tube type cleanser, forgotten which already.

evening cleanser = biore cleanser with microbeads.

yes, i use anti blemish creams, mentholatum, himalaya and another brand i cant remember now, like the himalaya 1

i still go for beauty boutique for facials once in a while, but for cleansing and hydrating only, less creamy stuff that give me breakouts, also cheaper

if your face very oily i would recommend deep cleansing mask at least every week, to clear the excess oil, love the feeling of clean soft skin that few days after the mask.

alright. last time i also used Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash, this one


but when i go for facial treatment, the beautician said that i cannot use bubble foam cleanser so i stopped use it
but i like this sooo much . haha!

i also went for facial treatment every month
but everytime they will said : did you wash your face? so many small pimples inside

where to buy the deap cleansing mask yeah?
thanks for suggestion.
i will go watson look with the pimple cream :3

the beautician got tell the reason why you cannot use that foam cleanser? that marshmallow looks interesting but personally i like tube type cleanser better.

small pimples inside i believe is due to clogging, i had that too last time, whole face, so horrible.

haha you are lucky, found the pic i took of the exfoliate and deep cleansing mask:

on left is the Dr. G "brightening peeling gel" is the exfoliate, can get from sasa, forgotten how much, 30+ or 60+ for that 120ml.
on right is the "clay mask" is the deep cleansing mask, can get from watson, less than rm20 if not mistaken.

they just said that it's not suitable for me.
but i do research, actually bubble foam cleanser will make our skin more dry.
so i think if i really want to use it, i can use three times per week

haha. personally like bubble foam cleanser, full like so fun!
yeahh it's due to clogging very very pain if they press it out -.-

yeahhh im lucking enuf that you sharing your experience with me too!
too bad that today im didnt go mid valley because DR.G having promotion on the LG floor
nvm i think monday i will check it out at SASA.
okay dokay! i will have a look in watson too! that one is mask, apply then wash off?

btw, did you use for blackhead remover things?

hmm... maybe la, the foam himalaya i use now make my skin very dry, i also use another foam type hand cleanser, hands also feel very dry after use, so maybe its true that foam type cleanser is very drying.

how to use that mask (my way la....)
1. wash face with ordinary cleanser, rinse clean.
2. with face still wet, use Dr. G exfoliate, rinse clean and dab dry.
3. apply deep cleansing mask, leave dry (around 20 to 30 min), wash off.
4. wash face with ordinary cleanser again (i do this because i scared got residue mask i didnt clean well enough), dry.
5. toner and feel good

but remember ya, every1 skin condition is different, what good for me may not be good for you, good luck dear

yeahhh cause foam cleanser really will make our skin more dry

i used the skin food black sugar mask last time ( exfoliate )
but my skin hurts after rinse off. i think the black sugar mask is rough i think ?

it's okay. i will try it soon! tehee
hope it's really work on my face
thank you sooo much dear

no prob dear.

be gentle when use exfoliate, its your face, not that stainless steel kitchen sink LOL...

hahaha i keep laugh
did you use sleeping mask? or mask?

no wor, didnt use overnight mask, never tried.

last time used masks before, but then didnt see effect or improvement, so didnt use d, just simple cleansing and hydrating.

my face suddenly got serious breakout since 4 months ago and I'm 28 years old now. Last year I had a sudden breakout too but I managed to rescue it within one month by using Cellnique product.. now my problem is back again, getting worse and this is the worst! I'm pondering which product to change to:

considering 1)Clinique 2)Kose,

as now using back normal cheap cheap facial wash and moisturizer (Natures Republic) but my face not improving at all... =( sooooo sad.....

to control the oiliness of your face, you should actually put moisturizer in those areas. works wonders. I have combo skin myself, T-zone is the oiliest and cheeks are dry. I apply toner and moisturizer to my whole face, and it has been the clearest skin I've ever had.

your skin is oily because it's trying to compensate skin dryness.

Have u tried Hada Labo products?

Too oily and too dry are all cause by not enough hydration...

Also be gentle to your skin, don't rub too hard when washing or wiping

Drink lotsa water

Avoid oily and spicy foods

Avoid stress

Enough sleep and rest

Alright cause nowadays I saw many advertisement about sleeping mask and mask
So I think simple cleansing and hydrating enuf ? hehe
Thanks a lot ya !! ^^

nah, masks are additional indulgent treats. you need to get your basics right first - use the right cleanser, toner, and moisturiser.

many times our skin have this oily/dry combination, it's because your skin is dry and lacking moisture, that's why it produces more oil. try to avoid cleanser that strips away too much moisture thus drying up your skin, usually foam cleansers dry up skin quickly. use a more gentle cleanser. add on with toner to close up your pores and moisturiser to hydrate your skin and retain moisture levels.

as for the pimples and acne, it's better to go to a proper therapist to get them extracted and cleared.

May I know you using what kinds of Toner and moisturizer?
Yeah I know about the skin oily because want to compensate skin dryness . Sometime during morning time my skin very very dry and a bit tight and reddish.
So just apply toner and moisturizer but when lunch time my face become oily and shinny

Alcohol types toner suitable for me ?

But I think it's too moisture ? Because pop out big pimples. And I feel that hada labo toner a bit sticky, so I not so like this ;(

The best way to clear pimples and control oily skin is with medication.

When you apply too much products on your skin which has a lot of oil, this will cause more blockage and congestion. What works for others may not work for you.

If you have any queries, please PM me. I'll try my best to help

I use Neutrogena or Clean & Clear.
don't use too much moisturizer. also, invest in a blackhead remover.
