So for those of you who dont know, one of the reasons that i decided to specialise in skin health & develop my own signature facial (U and your skin) was because of my own battles with Acne.
I know only to well the agnony, in some cases literal, of waking up in the morning, normally on the day of a special event...Wedding day,first date,meeting the inlaws...only to find a huge zit staring back at you in the mirror.
After the initial 'Arrrggghhhh!!!' We then do the 'Ok so if I squeeze it, it will be fine' then the 'Ooooo I know concealer...lots of concealer', not an option for the guys.
So how do I zap my zits, I hear you ask (yes I still get the odd outbreak too) well Im a huge fan of the MD Formulations skin perfection gel (£21) which is a sure fire way to remedy that invader pretty quickly.
However, here's a little trick for those of you who I have yet to introduce to the above said product or for those of you who have temporarily run out.
Crush an aspirin & mix with a little water to form a paste.
Apply to the spot & then leave for at least 10 minutes or preferably over night.
The secret.....Aspirin contains Salycylic acid which is amazing for sweeping the pore clean, allowing Oxygen in to kill off the bacteria and will reduce inflammation & heal.
