Day Twenty-Three: Advice from Elle.
I don't usually buy Elle magazine, but I'm always on the lookout for new skin-care and acne treatment tips. This month, I noticed that Elle had an interesting cover-story - "Perfect Skin Now: The Only Acne Treatment You'll Ever Need." So I immediately purchased it to see what they had to say.
Turns out the article was an interview ith a MD/PhD who has been researching acne and other skin disorders as well as working as a skin care consultant for L'Oreal. Basically these are the products she recommends for acne sufferers:
- L'Oreal Acne Response Daily Adult Acne Regime (big surprise, since she is a consultant for them)
Topix Pharmaceuticals Replenix CF Cream ($48.50 at SkinCareRx.com)
SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic ($121.95 at SkinCareRx.com)
Glycolyic Elite Sunscreen SPF 30 ($21.50 at SkinCareRx.com)
Interesting, the Replenix green-tea polyphenol cream sounds promising - it may reduce redness. I also wonder if the L'Oreal Acne Response Regime is better then Proactiv. Let me know if you have tried it.
