Hello
lovely people. You’re all so knowledgable so I’d love to pick your brains. To be honest I’m a bit clueless beauty-wise and what I really want/need is someone to tell me what products to use
or tell me where I’m going wrong!
Don’t judge me but I am early 20s and it’s only in the past three-ish years I’ve even started any kind of skincare regime! I have oily skin and get angry red spots regularly. I also have blackheads that I can’t get rid of.
I used to use Liz Earle cleanse and polish as a cleanser and really liked it but at about £16 a pop I’ve swapped for Superdrug’s own brand hot cloth cleanser which I am finding ok. I used to follow that with Pixi Glow tonic, again I really liked this but it’s expensive so I swapped for The Ordinary Glycolic acid 7% as it was recommended to me but I don’t like it and find it too harsh/burny/ doesn’t give me the same results as Glow Tonic did.
I’m probably going to get told off for this but I’ve never really used a night cream or moisturised on a night after using the glycolic acid because I’m worried it’ll make my skin more oily!! Any recommendations ? I use a moisturiser in the day time, with SPF.
Please advise me what might work for my oily skin. I’ve even just started a Dermatica subscription for help with the spots so I’ll see how that goes but obviously it’s a big financial commitment
Extra question - I’m Scared of aging and my family have lots of frown lines, I’m only early 20s, is it stupid to get Botox as a preventative measure?
