War with Acne, How to live without Acne? How to Care for Acne

"Please do not press this red button" I remember this popular app on Myspace long time ago. I remember this statement want me to press the button no matter what! ha, well the acne on your face looks the same, but really don't press. It hurts, you'll infect it, and by pressing and squeezing will not solve. It will only leave you acne scares.


Acne is very common among teens when their over flowing hormones go overwhelming. However now we have Adult Acne that appear after the teen stage. There is many reason why we get these acne, the doctors divide all acne prone skin into 3 types.

Try taking this test to see which type acne you are getting. You can have various type not just one. You can have all A, B, C or just two or one.

A type :
Acne mostly appears on the forehead
Stress just makes the acne get redder
I feel heat around my skin often
I often have headache and don't get good sleep
I get painful acne around the chest

Reason : Stress, Toxic and Heat is the reason for these acne
Stress makes not normal heat inside the body and that get around the blood stream causing redness around the skin and this brings out large amount of oil into the skin

Cure : Reducing stress is most important, and also getting the toxic inside the skin out. Activity that does this is Half body baths. Just until it feels good, not too long that cause heat up this will only worsen the problem. Another temperately thing you can do is reduce heat around the face, there is a lot of method to this is using mask 

B Type :
Acne mostly appear on the cheeks
When I eat greasy food I get acne
When I brush my teeth I tend to feel uncomfortable inside
I have little appetite for food
When I press pit of the stomach it's painful

Reason : Digestion, especially toxic in the stomach caused your acne
Many people who has problem with digestion tend to have toxic pill up inside the stomach like sputum. This cause lack of appetite and heat up to your skin.

Cure : There are herbs and medicine that helps, what you can do is to eat slowly and give massage around the stomach. Rub your hands to heat up your hands make a fist and rub your stomach on in clockwise circle.

I remember how my dad rubbed my stomach when I had a bad flu this really calmed my pain and helped me sleep :)

C Type :
Acne mostly appear on the U zone
Before your period you experience constipation
You experience gas inside your stomach
When you press lower stomach you feel pain

Reason : You hold toxic or gas below your stomach this is caused by dysfunction of the bowel movement and uterine uneven cycle. Which keep gas longer than it needs too and stacks toxic inside the body.

Cure : To cure constipation there are a lot of Fermented Foods that you can eat, like kimchi(XD) and yogurt

Now we know the "inner problem" that caused acne, if you cure the reasons it will help you stop getting any more acne and make the acne disappear. But it's not always easy to stay health all the time.
Now it's time to cure the "outer problem" on my NEXT Post

Perfect Dewy Cushion, The Face Shop Cushion Screen Cell

Cushion review I know you girls love makeup base products. I've did a voting on my blog it's just right at the Right side if you haven't voted already. I saw you all love my How to post but also want more reviews about the Major street brands review. Well, I brought you one. :)


Its a new cushion brought by The Face Shop, I think these days Face shop really bring out products that is worth giving interest. However The Face Shop is not so popular overseas yet, I hope more people acknowledge this brand. No I am not paid to say this, its my truthful opinion after buying so many cosmetic in my life XD


:O I know.. what's up with the picture?
Well I'm having fun with Photoshop these days, although I lack desperate with artistic skills. Anyways, this cushion was popular because Suji from Miss A having advertising this product. Also. it had a bit different concept than air cushion. The name screen cell really matches with this product.

15g / 26,000won

HOW TO USE?
Apply in foundation step. Paint the cushion all over the face and tap to blend it over your face. for more coverage layer the cushion.

Ingredients :
Lily Extract, Cyclopentasiloxane, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide , Butylene Glycol dicaprylate , phenyl trimethoxysilane dimethicone , a chilhek silme cinnamate ethoxy , Dimethicone PEG -10 , jolseol phenyl benzimidazole sulphonic acid , cyclohexanone siloxanes, di propylene glycol, tromethamine , niacinamide , enhanced extract, not three tilpi , mica, peksil laurate, magnesium sulfate , sorbitan sesquioleate oleate, Te Jinx rate , phenoxyethanol, dimethicone , methyl dimethicone , alumina, Post Lycos ping ring feed , Lactobacillus fermentation product , aluminum hydroxide , phospholipids , di Betameche konol , 1,2- hexane diol , palmitoyl proline, Des uranium distearate hectorite, Des distearylisophthalic chloride, Butylene Glycol, ceramide 3 , adenosine, magnesium palmitoyl glutamate , sodium palmitoyl sarcosinate , palmitoyl tic acid, Sycamore tree frills Reel Talk silanes, silyl ethoxy tiger painted poly dimethyl siloxane chilhek at CD menu dimethicone , cholesterol, silica, synthetic fluorinated graphite sample logo , calcium aluminum silicate Foxboro , Tan oxide, hydro jeneyi painted lecithin , tocopheryl acetate, tree aged seven hexa hydro polydecene jeneyi Ted , cetearyl alcohol , potassium C11-15 alkyl phosphate, ceramide 1 , phytosphingosine , pentyl rengeu rariyi Cole, caprylic rilgeul glycol, benzyl Kenzo Inn , sheet nelol , limonene, hexyl namal fainting , hydroxy nelal sheet , Lee nalrul , hydroxy iso- hexyl- 3- cyclohexyl aldehyde senka Hebrews box upgrade , butyl phenyl methyl propionic Nacional , Scent, yellow iron oxide, red iron oxide, black iron oxide

*Scent allergic Alert*


The features this product promises :
*Not that we trust it XD*
Screen Cell, Patent product has 0.028mm of opening for the pump to com out helping the cream to apply more densily and naturally. 
Moisturizing effect
Clean Dewy Finish
You can take off the screen cell for cleaning.


Screen cell was bit more bigger than IO** Cushion case.
I liked how clean it was not like The Face Shop Aqua Cushion which felt like some kind of toy when I close and open. It was much more firm but I hoped they did the same for the pump holder. I felt if I'm not careful I might break it easily.


Nice Air pump... But why why is it this color?
It's hard for me to see how much I put the cushion cream on the cushion. Which is hard for me to control the amount. This is quiet crucial for this product I'll explain later.


This is the famous Screen Cell
with a gentle touch the cream spread across the screen cell just nice amount.
I added the picture when it is completely soaked

Comparison

I love the dewy finish, like it shown in the picture the cream very white, so if you have used 21 colors bright beige might feel bit more lighter than normal 21's you seen in other brands. 

Coverage is around Medium. But you can layer the product for better coverage.
However I did find that if you layer on too much it makes the makeup thick, unless you have the skill of very sensitive tap making very thin layer, I suggest to use concealer. It's not easy to control :/

BEFORE / AFTER

Don't say anything about my pores... I had a long night drink day before I took this picture. So my skin is suffering the result.
*Please don't drink before you are an adult I am not encouraging drinking*

OVERALL OPINION
USAGE
♥♥♥♥
I don't know.. not really my favorite as time goes by, mostly because, I feel it's dry.
Yes it's moist when you apply but I could feel that is starts too get too dry afterwards. Good thing about this product is that usually other cushion when moist dehydrates the cream darkens or looks like clay, this didn't even if the moist is gone. I recommend that you do very moistful skin care before you apply this cushion.

I seriously love the dewy shimmer it give to the skin making my skin looks so flawless and whiter than the actual color of the cream! Love it. The scent is sweet which means there is artificial scent inside, if you are allergic to artificial scent, don't consider this product.

I love how I can easily fix the makeup with this, and the glow within the product makes the makeup as if just done few minutes ago. Looking refreshed and clean flawless :)

Texture
♥♥♥
The Moist will get your hair stick into your face XD
To prevent this use powder afterwards for a finish.

Effect
♥♥♥♥
The reason I had to introduce this product is because of the dewy finish it gives. I love the finish so much that I don't care if it does kind of dry out my skin.
The coverage is middle but get stronger as you layer it on so great for people with blemishes and skin problems to cover


If you are having hard time getting these product
I opened a special event for all my readers
I can go shopping for you in KOREA! in Official Stores!
So it is Authentic, You get to enjoy the Sales, and you can get your cosmetic!
I'm more than happy to help XD

Recommend product for Acne-Prone Skin! Cure your Acne with this Savia Trouble Ampule

I found this product from a friend. She had Get it Beauty Beauty box this month and that box had this product inside. I hated it at first because of its herbal medicine scent but when I saw the effect it did to my acne-prone skinned friend, I called it a miracle ampule. I really think you should take a look. Especially if you have been trouble with acne, if you haven't go read about how to care for acne day and night.

Savia Magic Count Down 7 Days Naflex 5 for Woman
50ml / 12000

You know how you get acne along with the woman cycle?
Well, this product is for those who is having this problem. You will see more effect if you start applying this 7 days before you go through the 'Special Day'.

HOW TO USE?
Drop a drop on top the acne. Do this everyday. This ampule prevent future infection.
If you are acne prone skin drop the liquid all over your face and spread it with your hands.

Ingredient : 
Water, Acer mono sap, gamguk extract, Lactobacillus, 1,2 hexanediol, yeongyo extract, Cnidium extract, Gold extract, barberry root extract, Blackening extract, extract of the mold opening, Mori Cortex extract, gardenia extract, paemo extract, licorice extract, nine base extract, yam root extract, Lactobacillus, hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin, betaine, panthenol, allantoin, niacinamide, Osaka ride comfort by one, Cooper tree peptide 1, resichin, cypress oil, PEG 4-hydro-Painted caster jeneyi oil, sodium hyaluronidase Nate, sage oil, tea tree oil

This is what I love about this product more than any other acne care products I've used. It's so skin friendly, SO Natural, Just check the ingredients Pratically it's all oil or plant extract. It's very important because there are girls who get acne because of chemicals inside other cosmetic.

The Features of this products are the following :
There are ingredients that reduce the sensitivity in acne-prone skin
Used Specially Patented Skill Naflex5 that is extract from plant and has reducing irritation effect.


The lid is very strongly sealed. It look me a while to figure out how to open this. Even got a little cut on my fingers. :( So here's how you do it.
open the plastic lid and circle it around so that the cover will come off too.

BEFORE / AFTER

Texture
The liquid is yellowish and very slippery so it was easy to spread. However the oil was absorbed so fast that I had to use more oil, which made my friend angry because this is a quiet expensive product. She didn't want me to 'waste' the product.
Even if it had so many plant oil it wasn't oily at all, very clean finish and not stickiness at all. 

I really love this product see how overall redness is died down, and troubled part of the skin have died down in first use. I been seeing my friend using this for a while now. I really think her acne is disappearing. and her skin looks so much brighter.

Overall Comment
Usage
♥♥♥♥
Expensive... Very expensive for little bottle. But I get were the price is coming from, it's that much effective. I have used various acne cream or ampule, I always didn't find much difference and seems like its not working. I'm sure many of you have experienced this. There are good products out there but the product that shown fastest result for me was this product. 

The only concern about this product is the rough opening. Although I know some may like the tight lid. But for me it took a while that I felt frustrated. 

Second is the scent, its those scent in herbal medicine, it's light but there are people who hate this kind of scent. But I would get over it because it will cure your acne! That's enough for me XD

Texture
♥♥♥♥
So light So so light, not heavy at all. Almost like skin but lighter! XD
I love how fast it absorb which means it can go in deeper into your skin.
Which is also a downside too because it means you have to apply more because it will be gone before you spread! LOL

Effect
♥♥♥♥♥
Full 5 points! Really I get surprised whenever I see my friend, the change was dramatic. Her face overall redness is gone and so was her acne around her T-zone and Cheeks. It was a big stress to her but no longer after this ampule saved her XD

What Products Should You Use for Cleansing?

Sometimes I know all of you get headaches from various types of products. Even make it worse they name them so differently. Well, today's theme is Cleansing. We all know how cleansing is important. It seems like very beauty channels stresses about cleaning your skin very well.

But I can see there is bit of miss understanding sometimes. Some girls would wash their faces three times or more and complain how it pulls her skin. Some girls would use strong products that irritates their skin. This is not a good way to be cleaning your skin.

I will say, let's do it right the first time around!

Cleansing Types
Cleansing Foams
Probably most used and most known products use to clean your skin. There is various types of cleansing foams from softer finish to hard pore wash cleansing foams. Cleansing foams method is making small micro bubbles to clean from deep into the skin even the pores. 
HOW TO USE? 
Squeeze or pump out the cleansing onto your palm mix with warm water to make as much bubbles you can by rubbing your hand or using a bubble maker towel.
Effects?
Cleansing foams cleans deep so great if you are looking for something that cleans out inside the pores and also cleans off oil and helps your skin to get ready to absorb the next makeup step which is skin care. Which is important for all skin types.

Cleansing foams are more for Oily skin though Dry skin can use softer cleansers. 

Hard Soap
Mostly used to wash hands but there are natural organic hard soap out in the market that has various effects from pore cleansing, black head cleansing, to whitening etc. 
HOW TO USE?
Rub the hard soap on to your hand to make bubbles rub the bubble on to your skin, roll softly.
Effects?
Various, all depends on the type of ingredient they use.

Since it's all natural and less chemical, it's great for all skin even sensitive ones.

Cleansing Oil
Like Cleansing foam there is variety of products out in the market. From cleansing oils with greasy finish to light cleansing oils that light enough for even for oily skin type. Most advice Dry skin to use cleansing oil, but I think even oily skin can use the light types.
HOW TO USE?
Apply the cleansing oil on your hand softly massage your face with the cleansing oil, remember if you press your hand for few seconds the heat in your hand helps the oil to melt thick makeup. After you message well and thoroughly, slowly melt the oil with water by applying little by little. If you splash water few times like you will do when you use cleansing foam you'll end up feeling too greasy. Apply water as you message your face is the method of not having oil on your skin. 
Effects?
This is great for people who's moist-oil balance is uneven and need bit of barrier over their skin before they start their makeup.

Peeling Foam
Peeling foam has had peels that is more a scrub than cleansing but there are no irritation soft types which I recommend to sensitive skin. Because unlike Cleansing foams it does not create fiction with your skin. Also much lighter than cleansing oil.
HOW TO USE?
Apply the foam on the face and slowly message your skin with it. Remember to do it softly you don't want to irritate your skin. Wash it off with water after you are done. 
Effects?
Not irritating soft types cleans your skin without reddening and pulling after wash.

I recommend peeling foams to sensitive skin types.

Other types for Makeup
Lip & Eye Remover
Sometimes makeup doesn't erase as well with the products above. There are specialized types of products you can use. Like Cream and liquid types for Lips & Eyes. 
So now that you know what to use
What would be my recommendation?

Cleansing Foams
Happy Bath Soap Berry Bubble Foam
This cleansing is great for all skin types even dry skin types because it has a moist finish. Even after the cleansing you can feel moisturizing and less pulling though for severely dry people might not feel this is enough.

TIPS! Check the ingredients! Buy products that has more plant extract and products with Ceramide, this ingredient helps protecting your skin from going dry which causes skin pulls after cleansing foams.
Other products I've reviewed : Label Young 5 in 1 Shocking Cleansing 

Cleansing Oil
Etude House Real Art Cleansing Oil
This is great for all skin types because it has a very moist finish.

Peeling Foam
CNP Daily Peeling Foam
Love this peeling foam, I used it when my skin was sensitively dry. It is not irritating at all, and cleans the skin well

Lip & Eye Remover
Still one of my favorites, tony moly lip & eye remover is fight for my favorites but still I will give the winner to Aritaum~

Cream Type : Banila Co. Clean it. Zero

BEST Lip&Eye Remover Cream Type, Banila Co Clean it Zero!

There is two step on cleansing, First you gotta remove the lip and eye makeup first because foam cleansing can't erase them all. There is the liquid type, my favorite is Aritaum Lip & Eye Remover. This time I decided to buy a cream type that you can just wipe it off with sponge.

My best recommendation is Banila Co Clean it Zero
There are two types the Pink and the Blue
The Mint came out even more less irritating and more skin friendly ingredients. I already think pink is so soft on the skin. So I decided to get the Mint for the review :) 

Actually there is more types, 
Pink : Refreshing finish 
Blue(Purity) : Helps calming irritated skin, helps smooth out skin texture
White(Radiance) : Whitening effect(vitamin), pore cleaning
Mint(Resveratrol) : tightening effect, Refreshing finish


Ingredients
Sept Ethylhexanoate, Caprylic, PEG glyceryl triisopropylamine -20 stearate, PEG -10 Te source rate, polyethylene, argan tree kernel oil, evening primrose oil, Portulaca Oleracea extract, licorice extract, green tea extract, rosemary leaf extract, byeongpum extract, kaemo my flower extract, gold extract, Knotweed extract, hollyhock extract, aloe leaf extract, blueberry, Karen rakkot two extracts, chamomile kkotsu, fireweed extracts, beta-carotene, Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin , samik hydroxy caprylic acid, caprylic rilgeul glycol, orange peel oil, herbs secrete oil, rosemary leaf oil, lavender oil


Like I said I personally think the pink is already very soft for the skin, but this is made more softer on the skin.


When you open the lid you can see the plastic spoon inside and a plastic lid over the cream for more cleaner use! If you don't close the lid sometimes makeup can get mix into the cream and it's hard to scrap it off :"(


You don't need too much just that amount is enough for one side of smoky eye makeup. Please rub softly don't rub it like as if you are scraping off the makeup, just gently rub, you don't want wrinkles around your eyes. The cream will mix into the makeup and melts it.

The texture is not liquid cream but more of hard cream but not solid hard either.

CLEANSING
Since we are looking at a cleansing product let's see how well it erase makeup!

You can use tissue to wipe off the cream but I think water is much less irritating.
You need the cleansing foam anyways afterwards. So use water ;)

OVERALL COMMENT
Usage
♥♥♥♥♥
I find the usage very easy no troubles at all, I like how I can even massage my eyes while I'm cleaning the makeup. And the cream melts really fast so it doesn't takes so long. For underlines if you have folds you can use a swab for more detailed cleansing. Yes I can open my eyes while I'm using this cream it will sting if it gets in your eyes (I had a unfortunate experience of poking my eye) but it not a cream that moves around or melts downwards, so you can control it. Just don't be clumsy like me XD

Cleansing
♥♥♥♥♡
4.5 Because sometimes there were some tint redness and Tony Moly liner left overs but no worries because I do foam cleansing afterwards so no problems for me. But if you wish to just use this one cream because your skin is irritated just remember to rub bit more thoroughly before wash. I might have missed a bit to find bit of left overs

Irritation (Higher the more irritation)
0.5! Since I can't say 0 because there might be someone in the world who find this irritating. But in my opinion I feel that is has absolutely no irration, No pulls afterwards, no greasy feeling afterwards. Just love love love this product!!!

But like the toner and essence, it is not enough moist for dry skin.

Before / After 2 weeks

OVERALL OPINION
Finish
★★★★
Just like the toner and essence, it is watery and moist but not enough moist for moisturizing. This cream has more moisturizing than the toner and essence, but I needed something bit more because I was having bit of dry skin today. But if you have oily skin or combination it might be enough for you.

Texture
★★★
Light and watery, but bit too light for extreme dry skin. 

Effect
★★★★
t's hard to show all the effect with just the pictures. I really felt that this products helps with whitening up or more brightening up my skin. I think it even slowly dim out my acne spots, but very little. I might have to use trouble spot products for actual effect, but this helped too.

Skin food brought out a new line this month, it's a newly upgraded line from the original tomato line. The used much better quality of tomatoes and also increase the effect! We'll see how it effected my skin the pass two weeks.


We are going to see the Toner and Essence first.


They even written out the percentage of tomatoes inside the products. Which I like about the package. 

Premium Tomato Whitening Toner
140ml / 14,000won

If you open the lid this is the type of lid you'll see, it's those types that the whole goes inward and helps control the liquid, so if you shake you get few drops not the whole liquid pouring in your hand, having you to waste the product. Something cosmetic saver would love! XD

Ingredient :
Water, tomato extract, ethanol, glycerol, dipropylene glycol, Cyclopentasiloxane, isononyl the Sono nano maleate, cyclohexa siloxane, dimethicone, ascorbyl Ethyl ether, sodium acrylate, iso-hexadecane, poly sound bait 80 , glyceryl stearate, PEG -100 stearate, glyceryl -3 poly methyl glucose distearate, propylene glycol, caprylic hydro Painted jeneyi lecithin, ceramide 3, cholesterol, tocopheryl acetate, diacetyl boldin , acrylate, sorbitan tree stem extract, carbomer, sorbitan oleate, citric acid, sodium palmitoyl proline toal, water lily flower extract, disodium this is dt, ekchil hexyl glycerin, 1,2-hexane diol, phenoxyethanol , Artificial Scent


Texture
Very watery I see no color, just like any toner.
There is this tomato scent but not too much. This toner absorb in fast and very light. I see not really moist but it's a great product to use as the first step of the skin care. A great product for teenagers who need something light for the first step.

My skin was bit dry these days so it felt bit too light, but I waited and used the toner. I find that it well clean off the skin that cleansing foam missed. I also felt that this toner extra cleaning off also had effect on relaxing the skin and reducing the redness on the cheeks.  

Premium tomato Whitening Emulsion
140ml / 14,000won

the Emulsion has 20% of tomaot extract
Let's check the ingredients
Ingredient :
Water, tomato extract, glyceryl Les -26, Glycerin, PEG, ascorbic Ethyl ether, beta-glucan, p Fiji -26 - Part -26 tests, bis-silane PEG dimethyl ether -18 match, sorbitan tree stem extract , sodium citrate, disodium this is dt, citric acid, sodium palmitoyl proline, Ted jeneyi PEG hydrogel -40 castor oil, water lily flower extract, di propylene glycol, ekchil hexyl glycerin, phenoxyethanol, fragrance


The lid is the same type as the toner. But bit wider than the toner because this liquid is bit more heavier texture than the toner.


Texture
I love the milky texture. Also it's very watery like the toner. The scent is the same as the toner, soft tomato scent.

This is my skin the change after 2 week
Before / After

OVERALL OPINION
Finish
★★★★
I love how light it is but, really I never seen a whitening product that has no oily feeling but just moist! But it's not moisturizing either. But I did feel that my skin texture felt very soft. I personally think Oily skin might like this better than Dry skin. So I had to use bit more thicker moisturizing products afterwards. But I feel that the tomato extract has all the vitamin C that helps my skin to whiten up. So it's defiantly a good product for oily skin and teenage girls.

Texture
★★★
Light and watery, but bit too light for dry skin.

Effect
★★★★
I did feel it does seem to care the skin more than concentrate on the whitening. I personally think that it really helps out the texture and the all that tomato also have effect on acne a bit. For whitening I think I need to use 2 more week because it's only been two weeks, but I do see bit change in skin color from seeing the picture. I hope you do too!

How to use the Whitening Products? What are them? How to use them effectively?

Skin food was already so popular with their Tomato whitening line, I even introduced it in the post, 2013 Skin Care Product Line Recommendation. This month they decided to renew it in the theme called "Tomato Photoshop". They even upgrade the quality into tomatoes that has been grown in a special farm that is studying to make the best quality of tomatoes.

Before we see the products let's answer some of the questions. What is whitening products? Whitening products are products that products that whitens up the skin in color and smoother in texture. We all love whitening products but we have a lot to ask. Every time we buy a Whitening products people say, you have to keep applying for actual result, so how long? There are also, sensitive skin who tend to have irritation with whitening products so what could they use? Whitening products is so expensive, what makeup step has the most effect? I'm going to answer each questions, I hope to help you all with understanding whitening products and how to increase the effect depending on the skin type.

How long till you can see effect on the skin?

Whitening products usually advertise that they will see effect within 2~3 weeks. But professional makeup artist say you should wait till 1 month. If you don't find any result, you are using something that doesn't fit your skin or there is a problem with the product.

How to choose whitening products?
It's best to buy the whole line for full effect but usually it is very expensive.
Here's what I suggest to buy if you are limited to fewer products.

If you are buying one - Buy the essence! Essence tends to have the most thickest whitening effect.
If you are buying two - Essence + Toner / Essence + Cleansing
Yes, cleansing if you can find one with whitening effect. These whitening cleansing has effect with cleansing out toxic and open up the skin to absorb skin products. This way you can increase the essence effect. There is a lot of whitening creams that also work for makeup base, but if you are looking for more effect on actually changing the skin not initial whitening, you should get essence.

Can I use the Whitening product?
For whitening effect the whitening products has these following effect, Hydro kinon, Arbutin, vitamin C, etc. You have to see which one is effecting irritation. This will take some patience and testing out the products yourself.

How to increase the effect?
Dry skin
For dry skin, skin texture is dry, hard and white turn overs.
White turn overs makes the skin more dry, you need peel those off so use a nice skin peel products like Missha Super Aqua D-Tox Peeling Gel, and keep the moist-oil balance.

If you are too dry and sensitive to use skin peel, use lotion or softer type skin peel.

Sensitive Skin
There are parts of your skin that is itchy and dry patches with white turn overs
Use skin peels without round small hard capsule, like wash off type and do a very soft massages
Remember to ALWAYS ALWAYS test the products before use!

Oily Skin
Even if you have greasy skin, the oil sometimes blocks the skin to naturally drops off white flakes. You need a skin peels too.

You need something that also cleans out the pores because the oil can easily block the pores and cause troubles. You nee peel off types of scrubs, will effectively clean the skin and also not irritate your skin.
