the NSC cleanser is cleanz plus ar????

 

[allberrybang]

is mult action wash better or oil control face wash?

lab serie water lotion is toner or moisturizer?

any gd toner or moisturizer to recommend?

If your skin is very oily, then I recommend to get the oil control face wash, else I think Lab series Power wash is good,

water lotion is a toner.

the NSC cleanser is cleanz plus ar????

Yeah I'm using that.

I'm currently using the Oil Control Solution and Oil Control daily hydrator. The toner has a strong alcohol smell, but its quite effective in clearing the oil. The hydrator also quite good. Bought the Oil control face wash also but not using it cause I using the cleanser given by NSC.

are u taking antibiotics from NSC too? if so i strongly dissuade you from using anything that contain alcohol especially in ur toner/moisturiser

the cleanz plus good ma???? how do u feel after u use???

The staff/promoter will usually let u test out the different lab series products and recommend u accordingly. But for price wise, I think Whathewants is better.

the cleanz plus good ma???? how do u feel after u use???

The cleanz plus quite good. But the doc told me that I can only use once a day(In the morning). Dunno whether applies to everyone.

are u taking antibiotics from NSC too? if so i strongly dissuade you from using anything that contain alcohol especially in ur toner/moisturiser

Yeah I'm taking antibiotics too. I only started using recently, but so far no problem. Someone mentioned that the alcohol will cause acne outbreak, is that why I shouldn't use?

 

[cherryboom]

alcohol will cause ur skin to be dry. if ur antibiotic is doxycylin ( i think i spell wrong ) it will make ur skin sensetive to the sun and also cos ur skin to be dry

..antibiotics may cause your skin to produce less sebum as such in the case of doxycycline and many other antiobiotics used to treat acne vulgaries. Alcohol will give you the tingling effect on your skin feeling sparkling clean but wat it actually does is drawing out moisture from your skin thus you have that cooling effect. in short:

alcohol-damage natural skin barrier=aggravation to the skin=more acne

BUT

your anitbiotics may suppress the problem and make it seem less obvious and you may be deluded to think that the toner you r using is good for your skin and once you stop taking ur antibiotics acne return and you naively think that is becos of the antibiotic but infact it is also your daily regime

dont pad dry , apply toner on half wet face. helps in preserving hydration to the maximum ..
