So skincare has always been a bit of a hit-and-miss for me.
Currently I use Clearasil Ultra Rapid Action Gel Wash on a daily basis, as well as the Clearasil Ultra Rapid Action Deep Pore Scrub probably twice a week. I have used products from the Clearasil Ultra Rapid range for quite a few years and it has always done the trick for me, when I keep it up.
About a year I had a bit of a break from this range and used Natio's Young range. I replaced my facewash with Natio's Young: Wash It Off Cleanser and my face scrub with Natio's Young: Pore Unclogging Face Scrub.
In addition to this I used Natio's Young: Oil Control Toning Lotion, Young: Oil Free Moisturiser and Young: Tinted Spot Cream. I quite liked this product range and how it worked for my skin. If I didn't consistently wash my face every night -- accompanied with toning and moisturizing, my skin would begin to break out. As well as this, it took about a week of thorough use for my skin to begin to improve again. Besides this, consistent use of the product resulted in having nice clear skin.
Surprisingly the Natio Young range is quite affordable, and can be purchased in skin-care packs which lessens the price even more!
I would wash my face every night, followed by using the toner and moisturizing about half an hour before I went to bed. Whenever a spot came up I simply applied a minimal amount of the tinted spot cream which both reduced the redness and appearance of the pimple, as well as helping making it go away!
I hope this review has given you some insight into 2 of my favourite face-care brands, but regardless everyone's skin is different. Some generalized products work for a lot of people, such as the two brands listen above. I would say that Natio's Young range is slightly more so targeted towards oily skin as a lot of their products are oil free or non-oil based in order to reduce oily skin. Whenever trying a new product make sure to not expect immediate results. I usually allow 1-2 weeks of consistent use to determine whether a product works well with my skin (obviously if a product is harming your skin stop use ASAP!).
If you find that a particular product works well with your skin - as I did with Clearasil's face wash, I would suggest using other products from the same range. When I was younger I also used Clearsil's rapid action pimple cream and (for me) both the Clearasil products worked quite well together!
Having said this, remember as you get older and change, so does your skin! Sometimes searching for a new face-wash is necessary as the way your skin reacts to your body, or even the weather of where you live changes how effective certain washes will be. I find that in colder months my skin is dramatically less oily and at times using my normal face-wash makes my skin worse! Oops... Oh well, it takes time to understand just how your skin works.
So go out and find a face-wash for you!
