What is the best face wash and toner?
I need tο gеt a nеw face wash аnd toner thаt wіll hеlр mе wіth:
whiteheads, blackheads, acne cyst аnd extremly oily skin. I don’t gеt јυѕt pimples anymore i gеt thеѕе instead. (іf уου give mе a home mаdе thеn please bе specific bесаυѕе i’ve tried ѕοmе аnd іt didn’t work out) thanks!!!!
AS for the whiteheads,acne cyst and oily skin I recommend plan old rubbing alcohol. This cleans the areas and drys the oil up. Everything you mentioned is due to a build up of oil which the alcohol will take care. As for the blackheads I use bore` strips. They sell the ones for your nose and like forehead and cheeks. It works pretty good to, but once you get the blackheads gone you can continue to use the alcohol to prevent them from coming back. This is very cheap and effective.
1) Proactive is really good if you can afford it =/
2) I love using St. Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish Fighter- it removes all that nasty dead skin and is good for acne (I actually use the Neutragena Wave w/ this scrub for an extra good exfoliation and cleansing!)
3) I like to use Sea Breeze and Proactive toners =]
I can’t say what is the "best face wash and toner" since it’s all about trial and error. Everyone could get either pretty good or extremely bad results from using the same products. E.g.: proactive
You might wanna pay a visit to a dermatologist if you can, coz he/she can recommend certain products that your skin might not.
If not, use a gentle cleanser suited for oily skin – I actually find neutrogena deep clean face wash is pretty good, but again, it might be different for you. As long as the cleanser you’re using doesn’t "strip" your skin, then its ok to use.
For a toner, you can use pretty much anything. I usually skip this part since a good cleanser meant 2 do the job well…
For the acne part, you can try using over the counter topical treatment. E.g.: benzac, oxy, panoxyl, etc. These are benzoyl peroxide. Start with a low strength of either 2.5% or 5%…
if this is too strong for your skin, use tea tree oil.
Hope all this helps. Good luck with finding your miracle products =p
