7 FAVOURITE INGREDIENTS FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN

Hi gorgeous,

Here is finally a post on 7 favourite ingredients for acne prone skin that I have tested and use it to help clear my skin.  I have combination (t-zone oily, normal on other place), acne prone skin that is prone to redness.

The ingredients recommended here are ingredients that I have been using and some I had used for more than 3 years.  Still, there isn't one single ingredients that work with every skin type so do your research, test it on a small part of your face for at least 3 days first and don't try everything on your face all at once.

There are some people that are allergic with tea tree, some with BHA and some with neem so do your research too😊.

Also I didn't include azealic acid, tretinoin, BHA or snail inside this. The reason being I have not tried the products to talk about it(azealic acid&tretinoin) , have not met products that work (BHA) or the ingredient is not meant to clear acne. (snail is for healing&hydration).



1.  Centella Asiatica
Centella asiatica, gotu kola, tiger grass, pennywort -7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Centella asiatica

Centella asiatica has a lot of names from gotu kola, tiger grass (the tiger heal by rolling on it), pennywort.  The component arrived from it are called Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid.  So, the name with Cera, madecossine probably has their star ingredient as centella asiatica.

Centella Asiatica is 2017/2018 popular ingredient for calming the skin and acne.
I like centella asiatica in high concentration as it is actually a very mild ingredient and one would probably not see the effect if the centella asiatica is not high up on the ingredient list.  Centella asiatica in topical form is to calm the redness, fasten the healing and reduce scarring.  It doesn't have antibacterial or antifungal ability so so you need to pair it up with another ingredient that can clear those acne.

Centella asiatica is great for those that cannot use any sort of strong actives since most actives can burn the skin leaving it more prone to breakouts and sensitivity.  One can wear it during the day since it doesn't have intoxication report.  The plants itself can be consumed ☺ (I drank it fresh without sugar before for science but I would not recommend it- my stomach flip itself 😣. It is better cooked or in smoothies)

Centella asiatica has been one of the to go ingredients when my skin is raw and red from the acne breakouts and testing of products.

Recommendation:
iunik tea tree relief serum
Chica Y Chico Tota 3.0
ALIVE:LAB Centella Dressing Powder



2. Neem


Neem-7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Neem


Neem is one of the ingredients that works for my skin.  Neem is not for pregnant or breastfeeding mother since it has some sort of birth control ability in it.  It works for people with hormonal acne and also for fungal acne. Combine it with some other ingredients, it just clear up the fungal acne that otherwise just stay and spread on my face.
I prefer the powder form since it doesn't have the stinky smell of the neem oil.  I consume the powder if I have no time to apply it on my face. The powder can be consumed since it is from the leaves. Don't consume the neem oil because it is poisonous.
If you have hormonal acne, neem is great to help regulate the hormone and acne. It is a natural birth control in the past. As for male, it is best not to consume it but use it topically.

Recommendation: Himalaya Neem powder
                              Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash (for combination skin)



3. Ginger& turmeric
Ginger-7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Ginger

Ginger is great as a tea item and for food to deal with cold and inflammation.  Drinking ginger tea with a little turmeric help with acne and to warm up the body.  Some people find that their skin clear up with turmeric mask but be careful as it can dye your skin yellow and you will look weird.
For female, drink it on your monthly to help to warm up your body to reduce those cramps.

However, avoid ginger if you are having sore throat or migraine because of the heat.

Recommendation: Vicco turmeric cream



4. Mandelic Acid (AHA)


Mandelic acid-7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Mandelic acid

Mandelic acid is one type of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA).  It is made from bitter almonds.  It is recommended for acne prone because it is anti bacterial, the weakest exfoliating acid if you count by the exact percentage of concentration, increase skin cell turnover rate and gently removing dead skin cells.

Mandelic acid that is 5%- to 10% is made for daily use on every skin type.  It is best to use it daily at night to exfoliate the skin and accelerate the skin healing process at night.

Mandelic acid that is 20% is strong and should only be use twice or thrice in a month since you need a lot of healing time after that.  Remember to use hydrating product after the 20% mandelic acid else the skin can burn.  Don't combine it with other strong AHA, BHA, retinol or vitamin C on the same day as that is risking your skin to damage skin.

If you wanted AHA for your acne prone, try a mandelic acid first before trying other AHA because most people report back that it is easier to use mandelic acid and many see results of smaller pores, cleanser pores and lesser acne after they start using mandelic acid.

Recommendation:
By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water


5. Tea tree

Tea tree( Melaleuca alternifolia) -7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Tea tree( Melaleuca alternifolia) 

Tea tree
( Melaleuca alternifolia) is a popular ingredients in topical products for acne prone skin.  It is a common ingredients found in products for oily and combination skin.  Do not apply pure essential oil on the skin because it will burn the skin, trigger the skin to produce more oil and cause more irritation to the acne.  Now, tea tree water appears more in combination with other ingredients to calm the skin and be more gentle on the skin. Essence and serum that is made for acne usually use tea tree water to provide the benefits of antiseptic and gentle at the same time.

There are some people that develop allergic to tea tree products but then not everyone does.  Tea tree oil product is antiseptic and antibacterial but then it doesn't work for fungal acne or hormonal acne.

Tea tree oil is not for consumption as it is toxic so only use it for external application.  Sheet mask containing low amount of tea tree oil is great to calm the skin and treat the skin.

Recommendation: Naruko tea tree night gelly
                              Thursday Plantation tea tree oil (do not use it directly undiluted)
                              Aiken tea tree oil (local brand)


6. Green Tea

Green tea (camellia sinensis)-7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Green tea (camellia sinensis)

Green tea (camellia sinensis) is also one of my favourite ingredients for drinking since warm Japanese sencha always calm my skin. It is also one of cheapest ingredients for DIY sheet mask with compressed mask from Daiso.  However, it is not recommended to drink it for during the time of the month especially if you tend to have stomach cramp since it is 'cooling' .  Avoid green tea if you are someone with low iron since green tea reduce the ability to absorb iron.

If you do not have such problem, green tea has antioxidant to help with skin acne caused by eating too much heat food or lack of sleep.

However, it is a gentle ingredients mostly for calming.  So, it is nice to use green tea as face mask or look for products with high concentration of green tea.

Recommendation: Japanese green tea
                              Isn tree green tea toner
                              TonyMoly The Chok Chok Green Tea Watery Cream (sorry have not try this one)
                              Nacific Fresh Green tea seed serum (the original name is Natural Pacific) (wish to                                                                                                try this one soon πŸ™ )


7.  Mugwort
Mugwort-7 Favourite Ingredients For Acne Prone Skin
Mugwort

Mugwort is know as Artemisia vulgaris or an ingredients which looks like weed. It is usually cooked or eaten as a dish for female cramp since it provides heat to the body.  If one find that their stomach area becomes cold, then this is a good dish to eat.

There is a scent to it so it is also used to repel insect and moth.  In skincare, it is anti inflammatory, antiviral and insecticidal.  

It is not recommended if one have hypertension since it increased more blood flow and frequency of migraine.  Digesting the oil is not recommended as it is toxic in the long term.

Recommendation: Hanyul Artemisia fresh calming water (hope to try this one soonπŸ™)

Klavuu White Pearlsation Special Divine Pearl Serum (sorry for the different lighting)

First of all, look at this gorgeous packaging. It is a bottle that is sure going to attention once you whip it out of the bottle.  

There are a lot of ingredients in this serum so make sure to have a look at it because I could not possibility discuss every single ingredients in this serum.

The first few ingredients are water, glycerin, preservative dipropylene glycol and solvent Methylpropanediol.  Niacinamide is presented there to brighten the skin in long run.  There are lot of plant extracts in there to help the skin with healing, rejuvenation, moisturisation and brightening.
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 is presented which is famous for skincare products to combat wrinkles and ageing.

Sodium hyaluronate, soluble collagen, aloe vera, algae extract ferment deals with skin hydration.
Tin oxide, ceramide, cholesterol, folic acid, adenosine, squalene, shea butter, Argan oil and hydrogenated castor oil deal with providing moisturisation for the dry skin type.

There are some ingredients that are allergen to certain skin type (oily skin or clogged prone to certain ingredient) such as titanium oxide, mica, algae extract, kelp protein and cetearyl alcohol.  However, not everyone has the same thing that they react to so check it out first.

Klavuu White Pearlsation Special Divine Pearl Serum is in form of pearly emulsion that is really beautiful. It is light, absorbs into the skin really well and make the skin so soft and moisturized.  Mix it a little with foundation for glowly glass skin look.  What I find this serum really unique that the skin has this very nice subtle pearly glow when you look at it.  It has this transparency glittering pearl that makes people wonders what you did to your skin-the kind like you get when you mix high grade pearl powder to your makeup.  I guess it is because Tin oxide is presented coated with titanium dioxide which explains the beautiful glow.

I didn’t experience breakouts and my skin does feels plumper and firmer after one month up to when I finished the whole bottle which is about 5 months.

Overall, Klavuu White Pearlsation Special Divine Pearl Serum is a serum for someone who want to get into anti aging Korean skincare products, love light serum and not allergic to the ingredients in the serum.  It is great for someone that just wanted to add skincare of brightening serum into the makeup foundation for that glow.

REVIEW ON iUNIK TEA TREE RELIEF SERUM

Hi gorgeous πŸ˜ƒ,

I am sure you know that I am all about acne prone skincare products since I acne prone skin. Do you understand my pain of some people giving you unsolicited advise when they never have acne before? Oh, if only we could outgrown that acne phase just by using ONLY water. If only skincare is that easy πŸ˜ΆπŸ˜”.

I have been using this Korean serum for more than a month, iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum.  This is a gentle and a plant based serum to treat acne and for even dry skin type.

iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum



iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum comes in a glass dropper style 50ml bottle. For the price of USD15.49, I think it is really affordable for the ingredients in it. The green colour comes from the ingredients and it has not synthetic colouring or fragrance in it.


What I like and find interesting is the simple ingredients consisting of Tea Tree Leaf Water 67%, Centella Asiatica Leaf Water 19.5% and the other 13.5 % are extract from plants and preservative.

There are butylene Gylcol, niacinamide, Broccoli extract, alfalfa extract, cabbage extract, wheat germ extract, rapeseed, radish seed, allantoin, beta glucan, adenosine, Ethylhexylglycerin and sodium copper chlorophyllin.

Sodium copper chlorophyllin is to reduce odor since not every plant smells like sugar and flowers  since this product does not contain any added synthetic fragrance.  It is a safe ingredients that had been using for a long time.

I like the short and simple ingredients. Still do check the ingredients list since there can be some people who are allergic to ingredients in it.

iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum is for calming the skin and to treat the acne at the same time. It does not dry my skin at all even when I only apply this serum as the last step since my place is at 35 Celcius (93 F) and humidity that is at least 92%.

Tea tree water is not the same as tea tree oil as it could be a steam distilled fraction from the leaves or is the left over after the tea tree oil is distilled from the plant.  It contains part of the tea tree plant that are soluble in water and usually has a similar smell to the essential oil.  So technicality no tea tree oil, but comes from the tea tree plant.  In other words, tea water is much gentler that tea tree oil because tea tree oil usually will cause burn if it goes undiluted on the skin.

Terpinen-4-ol is a terpene that has an antibacterial and antifungal effect which is an active ingredient of tea tree oil.  The water-soluble fraction identified as terpinen-4-ol, Ξ±-terpineol, and 1,8-cineol.  Terpinen-4-ol was able to diminish the production of TNF-Ξ±, IL-1Ξ², IL-8, IL-10, and prostaglandin E2 by lipopolysaccharide-activated monocytes.

It means that it is a potential antioxidant.  Tree Leaf Water 67% with Centella Asiatica Leaf Water 19.5% and other ingredients to soothe the skin irritation, whack the pimples into submission and then corn it with healing wound ingredients such as vitamin E, adenosine (for proper healing with no scars), anti-irritating and stimulate growth of healthy tissue.

Beta glucan, Broccoli, alfalfa, cabbage contains great antioxidants like vitamin A, C, and E work to support health function of immune cells and boost immune system.  Our skin do absorb some product of what we put on our skin so serum does help the skin to heal faster.

iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum is a great nice gentle serum. The serum is unscented and it is a very watery liquid. It absorb almost immediately upon application on my skin. It is not drying at all given that I use it twice a day. My pimples actually get really tiny the next day and disappeared the day after. As for underground pimples, the one you can feel painful but there is no head to press, it does flatten them out and some immediately come up to a head the next day. I think it must be the high percentage of all the great ingredients put into this bottle of serum.

I actually stop using all my other acne products to try it for two days and the effect is still wonderfully fast and gentle. Given that the bottle is 50ml, I think it is a great deal and I myself would recommend it for someone who could not deal with strong BHA, AHA or just wanted something that they can use daily, show fast result but being gentle at the same time.

Overall, iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum is a great acne prone serum for all skin types. The simple short ingredients make it great for even sensitive skin like mine. Currently, it is one of my staple product for acne.

REVIEW ON SKIN AND LAB DR.SPOT CLEAR DON'T TOUCH TROUBLE

Hi beautiful,

Today is Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble made by Korean dermatologist laboratory.

This an acne spot treatment that I had drag the review to this day because I bought it and don't really have all the time to review everything.  I had already finished this tube before writing this review to confirm my opinion on it.  Besides, I must have caught some laziness symptom that I am unable to write much these few months.

So, here is the review on Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble.

Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble
Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble comes in a tube which is easy to dispense the product.  The light yellowish gel smell of fresh leaves.  The gel absorb easily into my skin easily.  It does dry my skin.

The ingredients are of all natural extract that calm the skin and suitable for someone looking for plant based acne spot treatment.  The ingredients are plant based such as Sophora Extract, Portulaca Extract, Dryopteris Crassirhizoma Nakai Extract, Plantain Extract, Akane Extract which is my opinion are just too gentle and more suitable for very mild acne and dry skin type.  It doesn't have any 'actives' or strong ingredients that can exfoliate the skin.

For me, it only work for whiteheads, calm redness and get rid of the red acne marks.  However, it is not effective for moderate acne, cystic acne, blackheads or fungal acne.  Those other type of acne needs something much more stronger than this gentle calming spot treatment.  The great thing about this Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble is that you can apply a lot of it on your skin without worrying that your face will turn red or burn your skin out of it.

If you have more than just whiteheads, I think you would probably need other stronger acne treatment products than just relying on this Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble. You can use it alone but I think you won't see much result compare to combining with an exfoliating toner or serum.

Overall, Skin and Lab Dr.Spot Clear Don't Touch Trouble is suitable for someone with very mild acne, loving plant ingredients, dry skin, redness and cannot use any stronger actives.

Product retails for

REVIEW ON BY WISHTREND TECA 1% BARRIER CREAM

Hi gorgeous,

Today is a review to deal with those pesky red acne scars after the acne left your face.  It is the sign of damaged skin (wound) on your face that should be treated gently.

Here is the By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream that is made to deal with the aftermaths of the acne.  It is not for fixing the 'holes' on the face. This is a transparent cream for hyperpigmentation and red acne scars or what people called Post inflammatory Erythema. (PIE)

By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream
Ingredients:
Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Cetearyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Cyclopentasiloxane, Ethyl Hexanediol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Tromethamine, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Caprylate, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA


By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream has a beautiful teal plastic tube which is easy for dispensing product.

As for the ingredient list, this is one of the product that doesn't contain Butylene Glycol so it can be a choice for someone that wants to avoid this ingredient.

Centella asiatica extract which are Asiaticoside, asiactic acid and madecassic acid are somewhere in the middle of the list which make the products a bit slower to show effect since centella asiatica are know to be mild.

Glyceryl Stearate is  EcoCert certified which offers skin conditioning, moisturization and hydration due to the glycerin. Cetearyl Alcohol is used fatty acid is used as emollient, emulsifier or thicker.
PEG 40 - Hydrogenated Castor Oil is used as a solubilizer, emulsifier, and surfactant in cosmetics.
Cyclopentasiloxane& Dimethicone are for the texture of the products which explains the silky slippery texture which most people describe as silicone feeling.
Tromethamine is to mask the scent of the product.
Allantoin as hydrating agent.

Other ingredients are emulsifier, lubricant,binders and etc.

By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream is made for dry acne prone skin and for the post recovery of acne so it might feels slight oilier on oily or combination skin type(don't apply too much).

It has this silky slippery texture which resembles makeup primer for oil control. If you love to use vaseline on your face which I do not recommend if you have oily acne prone skin and live in the hot humid weather, I am sure you will like the texture of this cream very much.

So, the application is very smooth with a matte transparent look.  It is suitable under makeup since it doesn't flakes.  It doesn't contain added synthetic fragrance so I can't smell anything from application on my face.

By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream protect the skin by creating a barrier of moisture around the wound and calm the skin with the centella asiatica.  If you are the type that use vaseline when apply the skin at night for moisture or after cut yourself, I think apply this cream would be better and offer the same protection.

I use it as spot treatment on the area where I pick the acne twice a day at night before my moisturiser.  It helps to keep the area moist, doesn't sting, heal the skin when I pick on my skin (I am just a human being πŸ˜…) and fade those red and black acne scars.  It took around 5 days to reduce the red scars (depending on the size of your scar) from the PIE.  However, it doesn't get rid of existing cystic or those underground acne as it is for a post recovery barrier cream.


Overall, By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream is a mild post recovery acne cream for acne skin type to deal with damaged broken skin and lighten those red acne scars.  A post recovery product for anyone that want to avoid Butylene Glycol.
