*45% of U.S. women describe their facial skin as combination while 15% describe it as oily or blemish-prone. Wherever you fall, the best way to care for oily/combination skin is to use cleansers and scrubs containing 2% salicylic acid. Cleansing helps keep skin healthy, while exfoliating reduces pores and brightens skin. Now those are good odds!
Here's a tidbit: **Over half of U.S. women (56%) dread a great deal getting a pimple or blemish before a big event…REALLY! So pop or don't pop? ***Squeezing a blemish is NOT RECOMMENDED by St. Ives or any dermatologist but if you must, only have at it when a white head has formed. Avoid squeezing further as bacteria can get into skin, increasing the chances of scarring.
Want one last romp with a sun-kissed glow? ****Sweep a light dusting of a golden shimmery powder on your T-zone, then contour below cheekbones with a darker bronzer. You'll look as lovely as the golden autumn sky!
