I never had pimple problems since I was a kid until one summer back in April 2012…I HAD BREAK-OUTS!
The reason I must say is..I DON’T KNOW. Seriously, I don’t know why and how I had breakouts. Mom told me maybe I went to beach and the water is not that clean? Hmm I don’t really know. She also pointed out maybe I used this Korean Make-up and it wasn’t for my skin type. Or maybe the Lord of the pimples just landed on my face. Well of course just kidding.. I was really pissed off of my break-outs maybe because I can see people that have better skin and since I have a fair skin, it’s very visible if I have something on my face. Because of my break-outs, I learned how to spend money- - or in good words, I learned how to invest on good skin products and make-ups Lol!
I went to mall and went to different skin stores and then shooosh I landed at The Body Shop store. Okay, c’mon this store sells expensive stuffs (honestly speaking). So what do I remember about this store???Oh I know, since it opened, I never bought any single item from it because my allowance can’t afford it! Moving on, the store was on sale (yeah it was and i didn’t feel it either) so I tried to check some of their products. A salesman (take note: salesman) approached me if he could help me on something. I told him about my break-outs and what products can I use. He handed me the facial wash and I was reluctant to buy it so for the nth time (dialogue that I always to the salepersons at the Body shop) “Ah I see, thanks, I’ll just get back to this maybe next time”.
At home, I checked some of the product reviews and I found out that TEA TREE which is the main ingredient is good for pimples or scars. So I quickly rushed to the body shop and bought first the facial wash. So what happened after using it several times? Well, the scent of the facial wash is indeed tea tree and it has a cooling effect that is so relaxing but still going back to the question…IT DIDN’T REDUCE MY BREAK-OUTS.
Let me tell you something. In my personal experiences and opinion, if a person has a bad acne breakouts or problems, I don’t really think simple skin regimens will take those pimples away but you would really need a DERMATOLOGIST. The idea there is I think all the products that claim they can take away your pimples meant that they can maintain your face a pimple-free sanctuary. I had an acne-surg from my cousin who is a dermatologist and ever since then I used the tea tree facial wash and so far my face doesn’t suffer any breakouts anymore.
So why did I purchase the blemish fade night lotion? The answer is..NOTHING. Well it was stated that it can reduce the discoloration from your face and blemishes. I really don’t know if it is effective but whenever I put this every night, when I woke up the next day, my face is smoother and lighter. Hmm if between the two, I think the blemish fade night lotion is better than the facial wash. The lotion indeed has stronger smell oft he tea tree but I feel it has a lot of sense compared to the wash. Also, whenever I’m having small pimples at my cheeks due to dirt, I use the lotion and the next day, they were gone.
Question: Will I buy this product again? Naaah. I don’t think so. Maybe if I’m already rich I will then buy these products again XD
