I blogged awhile ago about my skin, and how bad it was. I was pretty much convinced that my skin was due to hormones, and that it was always going to be bad. I never went to bed with makeup on, and washed my face twice a day. I then went to Target and decided to buy some new products for my face, you know give a new product a chance to disappoint me.
I walked down the isle, and had no idea what I was going to get. There were so many choices. Most brands had so many selections for different things. I couldn’t decide what I was going to get. I was getting mad, that it was so overwhelming. Do I pick up the product that is $35.00 or one that is $3. Does the price really matter? I also thought that if these products such as Olay had the answer then what was all the variety for? I saw the cheap version of Proactive. I almost grabbed it, because I have acne and that’s what it is for. So, I must need it. Then out of the corner of my eye, I saw Cetaphil sitting there. There was about 4 different choices for Cetaphil…and I remembered hearing of Cetaphil many years ago. So, I grabbed the face wash and the moisturizer. I stood there with my selection in my cart, second guessing my choice. I told myself again how I had acne, and I need the cheap Proactive or some sort of acne system. I then dismissed that thought.
That night I washed my face and used my moisturizer. The next morning I woke up, and it was the first morning that I woke up without any new acne since September 2007! I have used these two products for almost a month now, and I have gotten a grand total of 3 pimples which were around that time of the month. My old acne is clearing up, and my face is practically clear now. I am SO pleased with these two products.
The face wash makes my face feel so awake and clean. It has a pleasant smell. It does not lather up like a soap, but removes my makeup wonderfully. The moisturizer isn’t greasy, it’s light, and makes my face feel great.
I realize now that I have sensitive skin, and all those acne products were to harsh for my skin. As was the regular body wash. So, if your struggling with acne like I was, I highly recommend this product. It’s very affordable, and lasts quite awhile. I still have a lot left.
