Obagi Clenziderm M.D.

Good but pricey!

Let's hope you are drinking enough water, getting good exercise, sleeping well, eating clean, doing the whole face prep/cleaning regiment right, don't have some genetic history that predisposes you to breakouts and most of all- HEALTHY. My breakouts didn't start until I was 18. As desperate as I was, I blew a whole bunch of money and laser treatments along with this package. Now I am 26 and I can tell you why I say this product is okay. Just like any other products, it will work for as long as you use it. However, you don't want to be using the same product because overtime it won't work and as you age, acne medications can't possible be good for your aging skin(personal opinion). It did work and helped tremendously while I was on it, but that's not going to last long. This product is superficial. I used is this for about a year and stopped. In a few months, I was back to square 1. My point is, you can't just try to fix something from the outside when you're not taking care of the deals inside. This is just another quick fix. I'm sure there are a lot of products out there that can do the same for less $.

Lush Celestial

NOT FOR ACNE PRONE, COMBINATION SKIN

Me: Combination, sensitive, hormonal moderate acne breakouts. 26YO female. My skin was at it's calmest state(mostly have healing acne scars, no new breakouts, etc) before I decided to try out their moisturizer. Idiot girl there recommended for sensitive acne prone skin. PROS: Natural ingredients. Smells good. CONS: Feels REALLY heavy like a body lotion. It takes a long time to absorb. At first it seemed okay when I used it but within a week my skin went rogue. Considering it's for sensitive skin, I broke out badly. Noticed little white breakouts everywhere. Clogs pores and had giant zits. VERY disappointed and angry because it takes a lot of work to keep my skin calm. Especially when you sweat, you can feel the full blown thickness of this moisturizer. Skin gets super greasy. By the way, it's not until a bit later that I realized it has cocoa butter which is highly Comedogenic. Conclusion: Used for a week and returned.
