To cover, you require concealer, whilst to heal, its harder. My recommendation is that you prevent new acne from popping up and let the skin to heal by its own.

Otherwise, you could visit http://www.elicina.com for further info about this scar healing cream.

Any concealers u recommed ? I think for a few months already my skin do not have acne popping up. Can the skin really heal on its own ? How long would that normally take.

Pls advice

Thanx

jimyee

May I ask, Do you use sunscreen daily ? What sunscreen is it ? Is it non-comedogenic and oil-free ?

One more question, I would you know your skin is dry ?

Pls advice

Thanx a lot

I am currently using foundation with sunscreen. Of course its non comedogenic and oil free.

I have normal skin.
Follow the regimen closely. Because acne has the cycle of 28 days, so when its around 28 days, it will surface. If you still did not get rid of old acne, yet preventing new acne from its beginning, you might get acne for 2 weeks, then another 2 weeks acne will reappear. Therefore, consistency is very essential.

Just try my recommended regimen and I believe in 2.5months you will see improvement.
You can try to search at KL area. Try to get it at Guardian.

Jinyee,

My skin has not had acne break outs for sometime now. I would like to know whether exfoliating my skin on a daily basis will make my acne scars and pits worse ?

Actually, I noticed something, because last week I forgot to exfoliate my skin for a few days and my scars and pits became to look less obvious. But when I started to exfoliate again, it seems like my scars and pits look more obvious.

Pls advice

Thanks a lot

Yes, of course before you scrubbed, your scars are less visible because it was covered by your dead skin cell. Anyway, bear in mind ONLY exfoliate once per week, otherwise it will irritate your skin.

Recently I went to London, visiting my mum and saw that Neutrogena has come out with a personal microdermabrasion system over there. I wonder they will launch it over here or not because microdermabrasion is more effective than our usual scrub because the force was applied evenly.

Anyway, the skin will heal by its own. So, don't push yourself too hard.

Dear Jinyee,

Thanks for you advice so far. My skin has been improving thanks to you. But I have another question to ask.

What is your recommendation on SPF rating of a sunscreen we should use (Considering our Malaysian sun) ? I heard some ppl say SPF 15 enough, some say not enough need at least SPF 30. I am confused can you clarify this matter ?

And what you think about :

Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF 15

and

Neutrogena Healthy Defence SPF 30 Daily Moisturizer

Which one you recommend ?

Pls advice

Thanx a million

Try and use St Ives Firming Mask. It has deep cleasing and pore minising properties.
