You will find skincare products that can treat all sorts of issues. One of the most popular issues is acne. Acne itself is bad enough! Trying to hide those annoying red spots every week is difficult so getting acne scars afterwards is just cruel and unusual punishment on top of everything else you need to deal with. The problem with acne scars is that it can mean a wide range of problems. Acne scars can be anything from discoloration to uneven skin texture. You need skincare products that will take care of all these issues. So here are 10 skincare products to help you end the tyranny of acne and their descendants, acne scars.
Salicylic acid is a common ingredient in most acne prevention and treatment products. So if you have acne prone skin, you might already be using this ingredient in your daily skincare routine. What you may not know is that salicylic acid is also great for acne scars. If you have a product with salicylic acid, you should stick to it. But if you have not gotten your hands on some salicylic acid products, you should go out and buy this moisturizer from an Aveeno skincare line that is designed specifically for acne prone skin.
After finally getting rid of those bright red zits, those brown spots that pop up afterwards are supposed to fade over time and your skin will clear up. But sometimes, they are very stubborn about sticking around or you do not have the time to wait for it to disappear on its own. Break out this Murad Post Acne Spot Lightening Gel to spot treat those stubborn acne scars and clear up your skin. The AHA, a prominent ingredient in this gel, will help exfoliate your skin and remove those minor discolorations.
If your problem with acne scars is not just simple brown spots, you probably have indentations and uneven skin texture leftover from particularly annoying zits. Exfoliation and lightening treatments are not going to make the cut. You need something that will really penetrate your skin and boost collagen to help even your skin back out. Try the new Banisher 2.0. Banish has made improvement upon the original Banisher tool by focusing on spot treatment. The new design refines the needles to create smaller and more narrow piercings that allow products to soak in and cause less stress to the skin.
Retinol is a stellar ingredient in many anti-aging products because it helps to reduce wrinkles and boost skin elasticity and firmness. But retinol is also great to treat acne scars. Retinol, which is a key ingredient in the Philosophy Help Me product, will not only keep you looking young longer but also even out skin texture and reduce the appearance of brown spots. Just be careful and keep in mind that retinol will make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Use the treatment at night and wear sun protection during the daytime to avoid reversing the improvements the product has done and doing more damage to your skin.
This Kate Somerville D-Scar Diminishing Serum is exactly what you need when you have a serious scar that you just wish would disappear. It’s also a great produce if you just want to reduce the acne scars. This serum will help even out all kinds of textured acne scars from ice pick scars to boxcar scars. If you have not figured out what type of scar you have or the best treatment for those particular scars, give the D-Scar Diminishing Serum a try first.
Collagen fills in all kinds of indentations in your skin whether those indentations are wrinkles or acne scars. The vitamin C and collagen in the Ole Henriksen Truth Serum will fill in and even your skin texture. That smooth and clear complexion you want will be yours in no time at all. Also, this serum is lightweight and absorbs quickly into the skin so it’s perfect to go underneath your makeup.
The Truth Serum is great for daytime but why would you want to limit your skincare products to just daytime? While you are sleeping at night, your body is busy repairing itself from all its injuries and scars. Give your body and skin a little help with the Ole Henriksen Invigorating Night Transformation Serum. The AHA component in this serum will not only help to exfoliate your skin while you sleep but in the particular serum, will also soothe your skin.
The Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum focuses on vitamin C to boost the skin. Its formula is meant to help reduce wrinkles, dark spots, and other environmental impacts on your skin. This product covers a wide range of issues from skin texture to skin elasticity so you will love how many benefits you are giving to your skin. If that wasn’t impressive enough to convince you to give this serum a try, the C-Firma Day Serum is also part of the Clean at Sephora line. That means this product does not have any of the usual harsh ingredients like sulfates and parabens that you would typically find in other skincare products.
Lactic acid is a great ingredient if you want to improve the texture and pigmentation of acne scars as well as the rest of your face. Sunday Riley as a brand might be a bit expensive. But their Good Genes All-in-One Lactic Acid Treatment is a powerful skincare product that is worth the price tag. You will love how good lactic acid is at targeting those super stubborn brown spots. Not only will those acne scars fade but you will get a more even complexion and skintone overall.
Prevention needs to be a key part of your acne scar treatment. But it is not just acne that you need to prevent. Get this Roche-Posay Anthelios 60 Clear Skin Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF 60 so your acne scars do not darken while you are enjoying your time in your sun and working on that perfect tan.
