Here’s my 6 months + 3 weeks results! =)
I introduced some new skin care products into my skin care routine for this week. They are…
- Cos De BAHA MA Peptide Facial Toner
- InstaSkincare Retinol Serum
- Alpha Skin Care Intensive Renewal Serum
Here are my thoughts on each:
Cos De BAHA MA Peptide Facial Toner: Lightweight, absorbs into the skin very well, not sticky as it seems, hasn’t broken my skin out. This makes a very good lightweight gel/serum moisturizer for oily skin. It didn’t feel like a ‘facial toner’ as it states on the bottle. I’ll keep using it for extra moisture. I like it so far.
InstaSkincare Retinol Serum: Lightweight, absorbs into the skin well, somewhat drying but tolerable, no breakouts. It’s not bad. I haven’t used it long enough to see results. It hasn’t given me any breakouts.
Alpha Skin Care Intensive Renewal Serum: Possibly the best AHA skin care product I’ve encountered so far. It works. It makes the skin peel. But that comes with a price. It dries the skin out and causes the skin to breakout initially. I can’t use this AHA every day. 1-2 times a week is more than enough. As I stated before, it is drying yet effective.
Alright everyone! Even though I have new skin care products, I’m moving in a different direction. This is my last post on my ‘BP Journey’ or ‘Clear Skin Journey’. BP has done what it can do, but I can still see tiny, stubborn clogged pores. They are so annoying! Once upon a time, BP could do it all. Not this time. So I have started my Tretinoin Journey! I’ve always wanted to get back on a retinoid. I think it’s time after using Differin (which didn’t work) and retinol (too weak on my skin too). I’ve done my rounds with retinoids and love the results (when it works on the skin) in the past. It’s spectacular for acne. It does wonders to the skin. Awesome stuff. I will share my first week experience next week! I’m truly excited to share my experience with everyone! See you all there!

Here are my results for 6 months + 2 weeks. 🙂 PLUS, updates on my new Beauty Balm + whatever else I’m doing, lol. 😉
I thought about increasing my use of BHA and AHA. I’ve noticed that my results have been stagnant. So by the end of the week, that’s what I did. I started to use BHA and AHA every day. Wow, it worked. My skin became less oily. I can see tiny clogged pores diminishing. The texture of my skin changed. It smoothed out. This was what I wanted. IT WORKED!!!! 🙌🏻 I think I’m going to add some BHA and AHA at night too when I’m not using BP. Caution — if you’re going to use chemical exfoliants in the AM, make sure you use a good sunblock. And that is why I purchased this…
>>> Andalou Naturals Vitamin C Beauty Balm
Since I can’t find a sunblock that doesn’t break me out. I chose a Beauty Balm with SPF. I’ve had the chance to use it twice. I’ll do a ‘first impression’ review below. Keep in mind that my thoughts may or may not change in the next week or so.
Review on Andalou Naturals Vitamin C Beauty Balm:
I’ve used this Beauty Balm two times. Yesterday and today. I’m really liking it. It has a citrus scent to it. It doesn’t have much coverage at all, but it has softened my skin. It makes my skin look healthy and soft. What I really love about this Beauty Balm is that it contains a good amount of SPF from zinc oxide to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. Also, I love how it’s a brightening Beauty Balm with Vitamin C. So far, after two days of using, it’s been good. But, who knows. I’ll make another update in a week.
I am still using Dr Jart+ Silver Label Rejuvenating BB Cream (which has SPF too, but it’s meh). I apply Andalou Naturals Vitamin C Beauty Balm first. Next, my Dr Jart+. Sometimes I mix the two. I try to reapply Andalou Naturals Vitamin C Beauty Balm throughout the day when needed (to keep my skin protected). These two BB Creams are enough for my skin during the day. I’m not using concealer or any other type of coverage. This is working for me. Again, I will make an update.
I hope this post helped! It was another good week. Stay tune for next week!
