- Argan oil
- Exfoliate regularly

Is yours mixed with anything else or 100% pure? Refined or unrefined type? West African or East African shea butter?

But frankly, the result depends on a lot of factors especially the extraction process & method of extraction. I usually equate it with cooking cause it's very similar. There's so many nasi lemak sellers around, but why not all the nasi lemak taste the same? Some are nicer while some are hardly edible. Some even sent you camping at your toilet. Why the difference even though they're all nasi lemak? It's because of the different cooking process & the cooking method.

I tried my competitor's shea butters before, somehow it remained greasy for a much longer time even though it's supposed to be same like mine. Then some are still grainy while mine's smooth like the butters in our fridge. So yea, it's still gives different results 

Don't give up on all shea butters yet 

seems many people use argan oil. how to put it in my routine? like night or day ?
those collagen drink or sleeping mask with collagen?
do u mean by those capsules or liquid?

If hormonal acne ive has good results by taking evening primrose oil capsule. What brand collagen drink? I used to drink kinohimitsu brand

Oh I only tried 5 bottles and gave up cause it causes me some bumps not sure why. I use blackmores brand. Now each time my period come not much breakout if compared when I'm not taking EPO

Hmm.....cystic acne could be caused various reasons e.g. clogged pores, trapped bacteria, blackheads (which may lead to the earlier mentioned 2).

I would suggest

1. Deep cleansing - need a good cleanser for this to clear clogged pores
2. Control sebum production - try neroli (aka bitter orange aka orange blossom) water
3. Nourish/heal the cyst - try tamanu oil, it stinks but it has good healing/repair properties
4. Moisturize - your skin is oily, dry or combi? Try something lightweight that doesn't clog your pores, argan oil perhaps?
5. Exfoliate - gotta remove those dead skins.

Actually what's your daily routine now?

Collagen creams or collagen drink hardly works because the molecular size is too big to be absorbed through our skin and gut linings.

A proper diet containing high antioxidants can nourish our body cells to build our own collagen within our body.

Just my humble advice.

you rub lemon and skin will become healthy.

When I take epo I completely cut out collagen drink from my diet already and no acne ever since then. And I notice that if my skin is dry it will produce oil and hence acne comes.

Epo is mainly for adult hormonal acne caused by imbalance hormone. I use korean brands more and I can see big improvement too . Ur acne is mild right not serious those?

You shouldn't be looking merely at brands. All the stuffs that you use don't openly publish their full ingredient list. So it's hard to judge it's effectiveness. The ones I suggested to you earlier are the ingredient itself, not brands (try google those ingredients itself). A person should be looking for skincare based on its ingredients, brand is 2nd priority. The key is to understand what exactly you're feeding your skin with...parabens? alcohols? SLS? toxic? fillers? petroleum? It's like food, if you eat junk foods prepare to get lotsa health problems. If you eat healthy foods, you get a healthy body.

If you ever got the chance to experience good quality plant based oils, do give it a try. Especially those traditionally extracted or cold pressed ones. Your skin will drink it up like water. Previously most of us are exposed to mineral based oils e.g. paraffin etc which are petreoleum byproduct. Those are disastrous, clog your pores, greasy residue, causes bacteria build up, blackheads etc etc. But a lot of skincare makers love it cause it's abundant & dirt cheap.

So a lot of Malaysians freaks out at the idea of using oils now. But a plant based oil is at a completely different level compared to mineral oils. It's rich with vitamins & nutrients. Price also at a whole different level compared to mineral oil lol The super popular argan oil is hovering around RM200-300 per 100ml. The Muslim's favourite habbatus sauda is hovering around RM50-100 per 100ml. The most expensive I've ever encountered is barbary fig oil, minimum RM600 per 100ml. You don't need to use much honestly, 2 to 3 drops per day is a luxury already.

1. Due to the heavy advertisement, it sounds so good that people just want to believe that something good is happening to their body when they drink it (also known as placebo effect).

2. In the drink itself, they also include antioxidants ingredients such as grape seeds extract which high in vitamin C. The  skin condition improvements are likely due to the Vitamin Cs and antioxidants properties of the supplementary ingredients, NOT from the main ingredient i.e. collagen.

3. My personal experience. When i took antioxidants drink, skin improved and also glowing. Glowing skin is most noticeable when we take photos with friends. Our face SHINES out. Just my two cents.

hyaluronic acid injection

peeling

reapply sunblock

use mask and umbrella everyday

wht kind of scar

use whitening product to lighten it up

Ermm....for acne marks/scars probably tamanu oil? For scars, rose hips oil is famous for that. Just do a simple read up on those oil from Google for starters.

got hole alike / dark one 

use whitening cream 

There's still trial & error one le....a lot of factors effect the final result too. Factors like whether the oil is organically cold pressed or chemically extracted. Whether the facilities that process the oil is hygienic or not. What was used in the extraction process.

So sometimes what's supposed to be good turned out being a disappointment. Natural remedies like this is similar to food. Why Penang fried kueh teow taste better than KL's fried kueh teow? Why nasi lemak anak dara not as fragrant as the nasi lemak pondan? It all boils down to how it's being made. This is why modern medicine does not acknowledge natural remedies - inconsistent result & quality.

i didnt have my before photo aiya i got some acne scars red dot one left from pimple but it fade alot with regular use of sheet masks .
and ive got good results using cosrx snail mucin.
snail mucus provides faster healing on skin pimple, acne scar or cuts.

maybe the prob within your diet / life stly / cleansing method

EPO helped me with active acne, i had those small pimples bumps under skin
and it is at my cheeks near mouth area which they say is due to hormones.

when it cleared it left a bit red marks from the pimple so i use topical products
to fade them.

eat more vege and fruit 

wht about your stress level ?

do u spend time to relax ?

eat citrus food 

Pure Organic Shea Butter will not usually give you pimples or else you already have some unattended issues about your skin. In that case, even after you stop using the shea butter, the problem will still pop up again. It could be some food/product combinations that triggers hormonal imbalance or a particular lifestyle. Nowadays, many ppl are looking for a quick fix without necessarily studying their own body, lifestyle, allergies, other products they use, etc.

Are you eating healthy? (good amount of vegetables/fruits, not late... you know what I mean)
Are you still using chemical based products? (I believe you know what chemicals to keep away from)
Do you exercise enough and regularly? (This helps your body naturally expel toxins and keeps your metabolism in check)

I find Unrefined Organic African shea butter to be great. I use it together with Natural Astaxanthin Supplements. I exercise frequently (every morning), I have strict fruit diets (at least once every 2 months). For me, it is zero synthetic chemicals on my skin and in my mouth!

Yes placenta can be very expensive. I didn't know they could cause allergic..but most people are taking sheep placenta right? Do you see any changes after taking rosytime?

which brand are you using for rose hips oil? i have acne scars mark too, takes time to fade 
what masks you use?
