Thanks for the info Dr. Liv!!! I used to exfoliate my face EVERYDAY before using my face wash. It did help me to clear out my skin, but I noticed my acne scars stuck around longer. The past couple of weeks I’ve been trying to do it once a week!

Oh, you seem so tired in this one. I admire you sooo much! You must work very hard. Don't forget to take care of Dr. Liv! We love you!

I'm confused on few things. 1) I've learned from reading and have been told by dermatologists that we only really need to rinse our faces with water in the morning (provided you cleansed it at night) unless your face is overly oily or has something needing to be washed off. Because it unnecessarily strips natural oils- which stimulates more sebum production, and dries the skin, compromising the skin barrier.

2) Regarding a towel. I've always thought it to be too abrasive, and with constant use, also damaging to the skin barrier (I guess, unless you're patting). And that we should be switching towels with each use, unless it gets proper ventilation to avoid bacteria growth, which can begin pretty rapidly without good measures.

3) Foam cleansers have sulfates, so they can be drying or irritating, though, some are more gentle than others. So why aren't gel cleansers recommended? Gels can easily be turned into a foam manually with a foaming net (I actually just use a net that I found in some packaging after sanitizing it. Wet it, apply a squeeze of cleanser, then rub both sides together... foams up very well.) I switch up foams, gels and CeraVe type washes based on what my skin needs that moment.

Thanks for any clarification or contributions!

We all seek a miracle cream...face wash...body cream...night serum n or lotion... 😂😂😂🤣no such thing.We must take care of ourselves.Many times we fail to understand that alot of skin issues begin on the inside....then come to the surface....So?Try to eat well...do your research and then you can use and find what works for you.Some people have hormonal acne, some cystic acne..etc.What works for one...doesn't work for all.Prayer and fasting works.God bless all and May God shine light...on your individual situations.

Your skin is so clean and natural 💐not a dark spots.

If you have oily skin it means your skin is asking for water, I heard that from a different channel and it actually helps if your face is covered with acne, this helps a lot with your oily skin:)
