Hormonal acne help! Please 😞
I suffer with hormonal acne and can get blind under the skin lumps form when my hormones are at their highest.
I have lost all confidence, I don’t even like leaving the house when my skin is like that.
Please can I have some help on this matter? I’m new to this site and I’ve followed the create your routine thing on here… but just want to know if there’s anything I could do better / more / less to help reduce the amount of acne?
I’m quite reluctant to try retinol due to my skin being quite sensitive to new products and I can’t bring myself to have even more acne right now… it’s my friends wedding soon and I wanted to try and clear this up as much as possible 😞
Thank you!!
Skin type: combination (very fair skin)
Skin concern: cystic hormonal acne / blemishes / uneven skin tone

Use every day, as many times as needed. For most people, it's best to use a moisturizer twice per day. In the morning, apply it before your sunscreen (or skip the moisturizer in the morning if your sunscreen feels hydrating enough). In the evening, a moisturizer is usually the last step of a routine.
Use every day before going outside, even if it is not sunny. Sunscreen is the last step of your morning skincare routine. You can apply makeup on top of it.
Use a generous amount of product to remove all dirt, sunscreen or makeup in one step. There is no need to double-cleanse. It is a good idea to always finish cleansing with a splash of clean water to remove any residue from the cleanser. Most people only need to cleanse their skin with a cleanser once per day, at night. It is the first step of a night skincare routine.
