So for those of you who have read my other posts you will know about my love of Microdermabrasion. I told myself I was going to stay away but I couldn't help myself and last week made my way back to Skin Health Spa for another visit; it makes my skin so smooth and gets rid of all the little lumps under my skin.
While I was there I bought something new... Clarifying Pads from Dermaquest. I know, I know, I am not the biggest advocator of salicylic acid but I haven't used it for a while and as my skin is STILL developing new spots I thought I would buy something to try and stop those from constantly appearing. Because of my oily skin if I use anything with salicylic acid in it too much it makes my skin even oilier to combat the drying effect it has on skin (I can't win), but with these pads you only use them once a week! This is partly because there is 5% salicylic acid in them (and using them more than once a week could really dry up your skin).
This product is not for people with sensitive skin! The first time I used it I found the smell a little overwhelming and I could feel it absorbing into the infected areas.
They cost me £29 and you get 50 pads in the little container.
I'll keep you all updated with how I find them!
Also, something very exciting happened to me recently... I went to the BBC and trained to become a TV/Media make up artist! I had so much fun doing it so if any of you have any questions about acne and makeup then either comment or message me and I'll be glad to help :)
