Breakout on cheeks. My skin care routine.

Hello lovelies!

My skin has been terrible these days. I have no idea how, but it might be the weather or that horrible new moisturizer I’ve been trying out. I never experienced teenage acne, but this sudden breakout on my right cheek felt like my skin was yelling “SOS please, somebody help me…”

I could use some intensive skin repair and so I turned back to one of the oldest, but most cherished products: the Neem range of Himalaya Herbals. So how do I take care of my skin during the breakout party on my right cheek? Keep reading, I’d say!

1. I clean my face with a micellar cleaning water. Micellar waters are one of the best recent inventions, if you ask me. I use Garnier’s Micellar water to take off my makeup.

2. I somehow love washing my face with cold water, so that’s what I do next.

3. Face wash. I use Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Face Wash. Would you believe me if I told you about this being my best friend whenever I have breakouts on my face? This face wash cleanses face, removes sebum and other impurities like dead skin cells etc.

4. Scrub. Again, I use Himalaya Herbals for this. Purifying Neem Scrub works with a dual exfoliation and purifying action. I find this texture perfect for the face, it smells nice & it works fine for me.

5. Face pack. Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Mask definitely is my favourite face pack ever & trust me, I’ve used many! This pack regulates excess oil, cleans clogged pores and prevents the reoccurrence of pimples. Well, sounds lovely and just what I need!

6. Moisturize. The biggest mistake I made was not moisturizing enough. I always felt like I was applying more oil to my face and that being the reason for the breakouts. The real magic is finding something that’s suitable for your skin type. I use Yves Rocher’s Active Sensitive Hydratant Dermo-Apaisant jour. (Vyes Rocher is a French cosmetic brand)

And ting!
That’s my skin care routine right now. Please do keep in mind, I use the micellar water, face wash & moisturizer on a daily basis. The scrub & pack are advised to use just once or twice a week. For people with acne, this post by Neha would help too 🙂
