Clean and Clear shine control daily facial cleanser

As I mentioned earlier, I'll start reviewing products I used and loved and have worked for me and for my skin. So first I'll start with facial cleansers.

Washing your face all time with the proper cleanser is something I swear by. It's the key to clear skin. When you go on with your day being exposed to the air, to the dirt, come home and go to bed without washing your face, all the bacteria, dirt and oil will sit on your face sink into your pores and start irritating your skin and cause breakouts. You must make sure that you wash your face regularly at least 3 times a day.

I don't recommend using soaps, that’s my personal opinion, soaps are boring and can be very drying and don't have the cleaning properties of a cleanser.

I tried many things including soaps nothing worked for me. I'll mention few cleansers I've used before and didn't work like Olay foaming face wash this one was just foamy my skin didn't feel clean afterwards, Neutrogena oil free for acne wash .. OMG that was a nightmare, it completely dried my skin out I had dry spots on my face it was disgusting!! And I also used Clinique wash away gel cleanser and also the cleanser from the Clinique 3 step clearing system. Both were pricy and useless didn't do much really.. But they were ok. I also used many other things but they're not even worth mentioning!

Nothing worked NOTHING until I found my holy grail product *drumroll* taraaaaaaa it's clean and clear shine control daily facial cleanser. <3

I absolutely love this product I can't say enough about it!

It makes me feel so fresh, am on my 3rd bottle of it. It's basically has a liquid consistency with blue beads inside which at first i thought there were exfoliating beads but no. Not at all they melt once they touch your skin and you don't feel them. It smells good as well very fresh.

All you have to do is wet your face with water I recommended warm water to open up the pores. Then take the tinest amount I would say a pea size amount maybe?! yeah that should be enough then wet your hand with a little bit of water and start lathering the cleanser in your hands and put it on your face and work it on your skin in a circular motion then wash it of.

I have to say this cleanser wakes me up in the morning and makes my skin feel so clean, and I also noticed that my skin is getting better since I started using this product i mean i had no breakouts, my skin didn't get oily throughout the day. I don't know about the shine control claim I mean if it stops the oils then there won't be any shine I guess!

Anyways I love this product I recommend it. It's cheap and nice and I just love it. I think they are in the process of changing the bottle it’s the same product same color but in a deferent shaped bottle!

My skin and Accutane.

Alright guys so I had this idea that I would review products that I have used long enough to actually give you my opinion on them .

First I have to tell you about my skin, I have combination oily skin. I get oily in the T-zone during summer or when exposed to hot weather. I have never suffered from acne all my life except recently, I've been breaking out like crazy maybe it's my diet maybe it's my makeup maybe it's from being so close to animals, to be honest I have no idea why!

I saw a dermatologist. DR Harb Al Omari. He's the best in Bahrain he has a clinic in Sanad. He said you have stress acne. Of course the acne I got wasn't noticeable it was more like small bumps that were under the skin, they come and go but being the person I am I thought my life was going to end. Anyways he recommended a treatment session which is to be honest the most stupid thing I've ever experienced in my life. Such a waste of money. I was just sitting in a room with a girl popping my pimples with a needle! I had nothing to be popped but according to him the acne was so deep in my skin that it had to be popped using a needle and an extractor!

Anyways, he put me on Accutane for 1 month and I did my research, Accutane is for severe cases. It's supposed to dry out your face from all the oils and stuff so that you don't breakout. This medication is so strong that he made me sign something saying that I cannot get pregnant during the take of this medication, because if I do get pregnant the baby is going to be really harmed and would probably die!! WHICH PART OF I'M SINGLE DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND!!?

Anyways! He recommended products to me that were nice but really expensive and unnecessary too! Like sunscreens, eye creams, whitening creams, masks, vitamins.

Anyways the first week I saw changes and that’s it. Not much happened after that. Once I finished my 30 pills of Accutane I didn't purchase it again and I didn't go to Dr. Harb again.

Am not saying Accuutane is not good or the doctor is not good. Both are great but it wasn't for me it was for severe cases and all I had was few pumps on my face.

Anyways. I decided to adopt a new life style. I promised myself that I would make sure I drink my 8 glasses of water Every day to flush all the toxins out of my body and I would make sure that I wash my face 3 times a day. And I would scrub every other day to remove the dead skin cells and I would make sure that I remove my makeup completely when I get home and all that good stuff.

That’s all I did and now my skin is better than ever, but of course with the help of few products that I'm going to review soon.
