T ZONE FACIAL – Deep cleaning my pores on this hot, humid summer day.
This is when I whip out the Salicylic Acid and Clay. Although my skin isn’t oily, I get blackheads and enlarged pores on my nose. So I use oily/acne products there to minimize clogged pores.
1. Dermalogica Precleanse (Step 1 of Double Cleanse)- cleansing oil. ESSENTIAL for deep cleaning pores.
2. Revision Skincare Purifying Cleanser (Step 2 of Double Cleanse) – non-foaming Salicylic & Lactic Acid gel cleanser. Ideal for acne prone skin. I like that it’s non-foaming and non-drying because many cleansers made for oily/acneic skin are drying on my skin (normal skin type).
3. Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant – a gentle, rice powder enzyme exfoliant. Unlike many other rice powder exfoliants, this one also has Salicylic Acid (why I chose it for the T-zone) and Papain (papaya enzyme).
4. Revision Skincare Black Mask – clay mask (bentonite & kaolin clay). Also contains Salicylic Acid in time-released microspheres (for a mild exfoliation). A great clay mask that’s non-drying.
