I have had bad acne since 6th grade started and unfortunately, me picking with it left behind some bad scars. I got rid of my acne for good since I started birth control, and my dermatologist prescribed me Atralin (tretinoin). My skin care regimen has really helped me get rid of bad scars, dsicoloration and new pimples. Do you have one? If so, please post yours, and what products you think really helped contribute to most of your skin successes.

Morning:
Wash with Aubrey Organics Rosa Mosquite Facial Cleanser
Tone with my ACV/Green tea mixture on a cotton ball
Moisturize/Protect with Aveeno Ultra Calming daily moisturizer with spf 15


Night:
Wash with Aubrey Organics facial cleanser again
Slather on some Atralin.
Dab on some Aubrey Organics Lumessence Rejuvinating eye creme (sun exposure to eyes can cause aging or discoloration since the skin around the eyes is thin)

That's about it!

It feels squeaky clean. It doesn't dry it out because I put more green tea than acv in my mix. It's just water with green tea leaves and a little acid Smile

Acne


Apple Cider Vinegar is a natural cure for acne.

Age Spots


Apple Cider Vinegar contains sulfur that fights the effects of aging.

The trouble also with applying apple cider vinegar directly to the face, is that it could easily dry it out and leave you with dry skin as well as acne. Which is why I dilute mine with green tea.

Green tea has proved to be anti-bacterial that reduces inflammation, decreases hormone activity, capable of killing the potentially deadly Staphylococcus Aureus and the bacteria that cause Bacterium acne.
Green tea's antioxidants have been shown to be highly beneficial to acne prevention. These antioxidants help your body to fight against free radicals that cause damage to cells and tissues in your body. Green Tea with Honeysuckle is often known as 'Pimple Tea' in China. It also aids digestion and helps to detoxify your system when drunk after a meal and getting rid of the toxins prevent acne.
