Skin Care Questions and Answers About Special Cleansing Lotion C

I am 30 years old and I have had acne for almost 10 years, from cystic bumps on my cheeks, to blackheads on my nose and chin, to those annoying little bumps that seem to never go away. I live in NM (it is the desert and it is hell on skin) and now that we are heading into fall/winter the air is very dry. So I cant seem to find the right balance for my skin.

Based on the information that you provided regarding your skin type, I am recommending that you continue using the Acne Facial Cleanser since the 2% Salicylic Acid will continue to prevent breakouts. The Special Cleansing Lotion C is meant for problematic skin with daily breakouts and would be too strong for you. I would follow your cleanser with the Special Cucumber Lotion toner twice daily after cleansing to disinfect the skin and discourage the acne. You may use the Glycolic Foaming Cleanser 1-2 times a week only at night to deep clean and exfoliate surface dead skin. Use the oil-free Aloe Moisturizer (SPF-15) daily to soften dry skin without clogging pores. I would suggest the Herbal Hydrating Serum to hydrate and soften dry, parched skin nightly. Use the Flower & Tonic Mask 2-3 times a week for 15 minutes to gently deep clean the skin without over-drying skin. The Drying Lotion is the perfect overnight spot treatment for surfaced whiteheads. Lastly, for stubborn cystic acne, the best spot treatment is the Sulfur based Buffering Lotion. It is a light, liquid antiseptic solution to soothe and heal cystic blemishes.
