@charliee
Hi there, I would say the first important step for acne to clear up is to use a good cleasner.

I'm using Avene Soapless Gel Cleanser that is gentle enough for sensitive skin and it helps treats young problem skin. With its thermal spring water, it helps to purify the skin and regulate oil secretion.

If you do use any makeup, do remember to remove your makeup thoroughly at the end of the day. Makeup that is left over on the skin can cause clog pores, resulting in more pimples! I've always been using Biore makeup remover which I find it quite good but might be a tad drying for me now. Their gel remover and water base remover might be good for oily and acne prone skin.

Use a light weight moisturizer that is non-comedogenic (does not clog pores) and dermatologist tested. I can't remember what products I use in the past. I use whitening products I think and none related to acne treating products. =x So I reckon it is the cleansing part that helps to reduce my acne.
But currently I'm using Neutrogena Water Gel which is good cos it's really light weight!

Oh and, using an effective pimple cream will also help!! I used to use Oxy and it helped for awhile but stopped cos I sort of become allergic to it now. Now, I use doctor prescribed lotion on days when I have breakouts.

Be patient cos it took me about 3 to 4 years for my acne to be in control?

If you have really bad acne problems, I would suggest you going to a dermatologist and have some oral medication which will helped greatly!

Hello. May I know btw Freshlook Illuminate and Acuvue Define, which is more comfy and which can enlarge the iris more? I tried Acuvue Define before, but the big-eye effect is only so-so. I'm thinking shld I c'tn with it or switch to Freshlook? Thanks

[ariesapril]

@bumblebee hi there! I've tried acuvue define before also! According to my optometrist friend, she says both are almost the same except that the freshlook one is cheaper. lol. I prefer freshlook to acuvue.

any recommendations for good pearl eyeshadow/white eyeliner for the bottom of the eyes?

I also feel that sometimes when I draw too thick an eyeliner, my eyes seemed to look smaller.

I like to use the lightest colour of those Majolica Palettes for brow bone highlighting!! I think the shimmer is just good, gives that pearlescent feel. I think you get those colours individually if you don't feel like buying the MM palettes.

The other one would be Nature Republic. Do ask the SA for highlight colour. There is one with multiple flexes of gold and silver, really nice and will match all colours.

As for white eyeliner pencil, I am using the Kohl Liner from Bourjois.

PS: PPPP Basically, got all the MM palettes... so whatever eyeshadow colour theme I am doing, I just grab the respective colour and take the lightest shade for highlight. =)

Maybe you should try using waterproof liquid eyeliner.
