Bust Those Breakouts!

Last week we spoke about how to keep your hands moist in the winter, and now it's time to talk about your face! The problem with a TON of facial washes is that they make your skin dry. If you see "alcohol" as an ingredient on the back of your daily breakout medicine or wash that is likely what is causing additional dryness. Arbonne offers an incredible product called the Clarifying Acne Wash Medication which is part of their Arbonne Clear Advantage line.

Another thing that we LOVE about this particular product is that it exfoliates gently. So many of us have pesky blackheads that need to be scrubbed out, but a harsh exfoliant will only make our dry skin peel more. Acne medicines that exfoliate may also cause redness and irritation that is difficult to cover up with makeup (and that makeup could clog those newly-cleaned pores!). Skip those chemical-filled products and try out this soothing wash that is also hard on breakouts.

As part of the Clear Advantage Line, you can also try out the Clarifying Lotion Acne Medication post-cleanse or on its own. It's oil-free so it won't leave your skin looking overly shiny, but it will still work to make your face feel fresh and moisturized. As a bonus, it will also reduce acne and prevent new breakouts. A lotion that balances skin and clears blemishes all in one bottle? Sign us up! Well... we already did sign up, but if we didn't we would want to! Check back here on Wednesday so see what Lainie thinks about the products and to learn more about the botanical ingredients that will leave your face looking incredible!

Stay beautiful xo
