Facial Company offering Alpha H trial for oily/blemished skin types

Gotta say that the change in the weather has made my skin go slightly berserk and I’m in QLD =D
My normally combo skin is still a bit shiny and slightly oily but it’s also dry and flaking at the same time, hoping to get a facial tomorrow to settle it down a bit, maybe a peel of some kind.

You both make good points Gemo and melmeko. Hope it works out for you fashionista8P.

I would say stick with it, I think it is very normal for your skin to freak out and go crazy at around the two week mark, so unless you are experiencing severe reactions or are finding it uncomfortable in any way, then try and keep going. After a month your skin should be adjusted to the new range and you may be able to start seeing an improvement.
I am still loving the products, they are perfect for my AM skin care regime, and will become staples from here on end. I love the lightweight gel for during the day as it doesn’t make my skin greasy, the only downfall is having to apply a separate SPF sunscreen but I can live with that, its pretty awesome and my skin loves it 🙂

Maybe you’ve just got skin like mine and some of the other beauties where anti-acne stuff just doesn’t suit and every time of the year os not the time to try new stuff (bah I hate the transition to winter for everything but the fashion).

I can use all the glycolics I want it seems, but not salicylic acid. I can use straight tea tree oil with no problems, but not straight rosehip oil (even if I keep it away from my eyes it gets in them and burns!).

Maybe try easing out each product to see if there’s only one that’s upsetting? I did this with my ASAP routine and it was the Clearskin gel.

yeah thanks goddessmagick, i wont give up on it just yet coz it is still early days but i am really hoping it picks up soon as i am suffering from a lot more blemishes then i normally have. But also with uni I have exams coming up so the added stress and late nights cannot be helping my skin.

Fashionista8P I found it took time for my skin to adjust but it has worked well for me in the longer term. I especilly like the blemish gel. I did stop using these recently for some other trial products and that has sent my skin crazy, i have more blemishes using this other trial product than I did before. You might need to stick with it for a while to see if it helps your skin. I find I need a solid 4-6 weeks to know if something has improved my skin. Anything less than that is just a gauge of if my skin tolerates it. eg if it reacts, aggrevates redness, stings etc I kow with one or a few uses its no good for me. Other than the I try stick with it to see if it helps.

A bit of negative news I’m afraid.
I have been trialling these three products for about 2 weeks now (I had to finish off my other cleanser first) and my skin has just gone crazy :S
Before my skin was really starting to clear up and look manageable, however after using this system for a while I have had a terrible amount of break outs and the redness is worse…
I’m not sure if my skin just doesnt like being taken through a drastic change or whether the product just doesnt work with me at all.
And now I’m not sure if I should stick to it or change routine again….

How is everyone else going with this product..

I am sing its praises 🙂

this sounds like a great range, when my current skinstitut stuff runs out (doesnt seem to be working for my skin anymore anyway) I might jump ship 🙂

Update, my skin is looking super, the tone is amazing, no longer does it have the permanent red tint that I have always experienced, instead it is just so even, this is the most impressive noticeable change so far. Hardly any spots, with next to no congestion in the pores that are somewhat enlarged on my nose area. My skin isn’t oily very much at all, it remains matte during the day when I wear my foundation instead of my face looking like a grease ball, so YES its very very effective, especially to be producing such obvious changes so soon since I started using the products, woo hoo 5/5 or 10/10, two thumbs up all the way, hehe 🙂

My skin is glowing as well! And a lot of the angry pimples are gonskis! PIctures coming soon….
And my skin is soo matte!! If it keeps working like this I may repurchase a product for the first time!

I definitely have to repurchase the moisturising gel, it is the bomb for under makeup, just loving it 🙂 And possibly the cleanser and spot treatment as well, all three work so well together and fit nicely into my skincare routine with a bit of a shuffle 🙂
