Try Adapalene its a 3rd generation retinoid, it has personally helped me alot, i went from a pizza face to having small small bumps in 2 months

Also overstripping your skin like that can make it worse

Make sure your skincare is supporting your barrier and treating concerns, NOT DESTRYYINGG IT!!!

Gentle cleanser, non comdegenic moisturizer, Adapalene (Was literally made for acne), and sunscreen (Never skip)

my mom got me 2 bottles of these and im halfway through the first one

the photos show some improvement from some people that used it but in my experience it only helped a little bit and that was after about a month

idk how long this is supposed to take for this one specifically

for the acne wash i have right now it tells me to apply twice daily and in abt 3 weeks i should see results

You dont need fancy ones for cleanser, the job of the cleanser is just to get rid of excess dirt without stripping your skin of its barrier

u can start off with cetaphil, personally i use skin1004 madagascar centella ampoule foam

Get a sunscreen spf 30-50 broad spectrum (UVA, UVB) Pa++++,

the cleanser i have rn is similar to this one and i think its for oily skin which i think i have

face washes that claim to fix acne are usually bullshit lol, dont be a greytard and believe everything marketed to u in the store

Acne is caused by overactive oil glands, clogging pores Triggered by diet and lifestyle factors

Get niacinamide and adapalene, and your good
