o can reduce pore size, lighten scar...

It helps against acne somewhat and do quite a good job reducing pore size. But it doesn't really lighten scars. U need a different type of product to lighten scars.

but i forgotten the price of the DR's Secret, SANS Dynamic cost about RM200 i guess o-o SANS Dynamic is used during bathing, means its not apply only, but need to be washed off too, it cleanses and whiten the face, then after when my face is cleaned, wipe your face dry, and apply DR's Secret on your face, and do what you do for the day biggrin.gif i apply both twice a day, so far no side effect, has been using both for 3 years already  thumbup.gif  btw both products are hard to get!!

use a whitening product. but seldom do men's skincare have whitening products. you might have to look into women's skincare, every brand out there has whitening products, look at the amount of skin whitening advertisement on T.V.

it'll go away naturally in a few weeks as long as you avoid the sun. at least that is how it is for me, i can never keep a tan even if i wanted too cry.gif.

Wow, good for you bro. My problem is once I'm tanned it's extremely hard to be fair again...especially the face. I guess it's the genes...sigh

jonny, did you ever get the Shiseido Total Revitalizer? was thinking of adding this to my routine but the price is abit steep, if it can last at least 3 months of daily use then maybe i'd consider it. right now i'm just using hydrating lotion, it's good at preventing breakouts but my skin has lost it's glow, so i'm thinking bout usin hydrating only in the day while some repair cream at night.

I did buy the trial pack that came with a 15ml Total Revitalizer (TR). It's a heavier version of the moisturizing emulsion that is great as a night cream. I a bit sayang want to use coz so lil so I use it only 3 times a week at night. It's actually a good idea to use the hydrating lotion only in the day...that is what im doing for the past 4 months. At night when I don't use TR i'll use the moisturizing emulsion.

But I don't think I will buy the full size TR when my 15ml finishes. RM270 for 50ml is seriously too much for me and moreover I've found a better product in Olay Regenerist Serum. It has a lot more ingredients compared to TR and a fraction of the price. when got sale can get for RM60 for 50ml. It is light and even has ingredients that help fight against acne even though it is not marketed as an anti acne cream. I will apply the Olay first then only moisturizer at night.

Use a high protection sunscreen (SPF50) with good UVA and UVB filters. If your skin tone is not too dark, try getting a sunscreen with a combo of chemical (Tinosorb, mexoryl and helioplex...these 3 r patented names) and physical blockers (zinc oxide and titanium oxide). Apply sunscreen 15-30mins b4 sun exposure and reapply often. If u r using a waterproof sunscreen/high protection/japanese sunscreen u will need to use a cleansing oil to remove the sunscreen from your face.

Any good brands to recommend? The only one i can find in most golf shops is Ocean potion. I'm using banana boat at the moment. My skin used to be fair but now it's gotten so tanned and looks dark because of playing too much of golf in the sun. I made a mistake by not putting sunscreen at the earlier years. After reading about skin cancer, that's when i started using sunblock. tongue.gif

I saw your reply in another thread about the cleansing oil. Are these soapy products to remove to layer?

Nowadays when it comes to sunscreen u can either go for the matte non shiny/oily Japanese types or the heavier/oilier European types. Japs type normally has lesser protection (even though SPF50) compared to Euro type. Examples of Jap brands are Biore (my fav), Sunplay and Shiseido. Biore is my pick coz its cheap, decent protection and controls oil/shine very well. As for Euro type the consensus is that La Roche Posay is the best in terms of protection and finish but is unfortunately not available here. Avene is the next best option. American sunscreens are generally really primitive in formulation and most are unstable (protection wise) so keep away. But Neutrogena with Helioplex is regarded as among the better American ones. I use Biore Perfect Face Milk for my face and Neutrogena Dry Touch for my body.

Sunscreen won't stop u from getting darker or tan. It just reflects the harmful radiation from the sun. One mistake a lot of guys make is not using sunscreen. Investing in high end skincare but ignoring use of sunscreen is plain foolish IMO especially in a country like ours that's so close to the equator. I was one of them LOL.

Cleansing oil is oil with emulsifying agents and other ingredients. Basically cleansing oil is applied to dry skin with dry hands and massaged into face. After a few mins of massaging water is added and the cleansing oil emulsifies and becomes white (like milk). Your face will be quite clean after that. I usually follow up with my regular cleanser. It was really weird using oil to wash my face at first as I have oily skin but it works for me and my breakouts are less haha.

Hi guys, I am hoping for some advice regarding skin care. I'm using a Cetaphil washing cream as my face wash and I am using a Ginvera scrub.

I have oily skin (my friends say I 'shine' under light sad.gif) and have quite a few scars on the side of my forehead. I'm hoping for recommendations on products that could fix me up.

Any recommendations on scrubs? Also could I do with a toner and/or moisturizer for my face?

Thanks

Cetaphil is world renown as a good gentle cleanser so I think u shud stick to that. As long as the scrub ain't too harsh it should be fine but t shouldn't be too fine either. As long as ur skin feels nice n smooth without breakouts after using the scrub den it shud be alright edi.

There are various kinds of anti oil/shine products in the market for men and women. I have tried quite a few and sad to say none really work as good as Biore Perfect Milk sunscreen. I can go through almost the whole day with out using a facial blotting sheets if I have the Biore on.

I say skip the toner because it's a waste of money and the alcohol can potentially irritate ur skin. Just cleanse, sunscreen and moisturize enuf edi. As for moisturizer...wat is ur budget and how often u get breakouts ?
