Before you get hot and bothered, NO THIS IS NOT A SPONSORED POST. I am giving you the God's honest truth because I am forever indebted to the Clinique sales woman who sold me this acne solution and Clarisonic just a few weeks ago. I have been combing these products for the last 5 weeks and let's just say I am in love with them both. I was super duper self conscious about the dark marks on my face to the point that I wouldn't go to class or take pictures without foundation or bb cream on and I hated that, which brings me to my next point. You will never guess what was breaking me out! I will spill the tea in a future post. Let's just say that I had no idea how sensitive my skin was until recently.
Usage:
I use Clinique's Acne Solution system twice a day everyday unless I am doing a mud mask. I also exfoliate twice a week using St. Ive's Apricot Scrub. However, I was recently informed that the crystals in St.Ives scrapes the skin instead of softly scrubbing so I am on the lookout for an all natural and budget friendly facial scrub. Suggestions?
I use my Clarisonic every night while I am in the shower. I started out using it twice per day and saw huge improvements with the oil on my skin. Recently, I have gotten lazy and only use it in the shower and can tell that my skin doesn't look or feel as fresh in the mornings. I plan to get bad on it!

After Using Clinique's Acne Solution + Mia 1
Smooth + more even completion
Less oil in my T-zone
NO Breakouts
I love my Clarisonic + Clinique acne solution system. I also use Clinique's foundation for people with acne prone skin. Combined with the above products and drinking more water I can honestly say that my face has taken a turn for the better. I also use Clinique's dark mark corrector. I had to step away from Clean and Clear almost a year ago. Although Clinique is more expensive the switch was totally worth it for me!
Questions:
1. Do you own a Clarisonic?
2. What beauty products are you using on your face? Suggestions?
Oh I love St. Ive's scrub! However I've been using MAC's volcanic ash scrub. I like it because the beads begin to dissolve as you are using it, so it doesn't over exfoliate the skin. I've been wanting to try Clarisonic but I'm too cheap lol #BLMGirl

I may have to check out MAC's volcanic ash scrub! I feel you on the Clarisonic, but I promise you that it is worth it. I charged it my store credit card and don't regret it.
