    just scrub your face with it. but there is other ways to help acne naturaly & just a simple routine

    here are some tips..

    1stly Cleanse your face with a cleansing lotion, this removes dirt from your skin, it is true that facial cleansers do remove excess oils from your skin.

    2ndly Tone your face with a toner, the purpose is to tighten the skin thought application of alcohol. alcohol are drying because they evaporate easy. taking water from the skin when the skin is dry it becomes tight.

    3rdly moisturise your skin with a moisturiser, this helps your skin trap moisture in the cells, it puts a barrier over the skin, and makes your skin feel hydrated and not parched.

    i do this every morning and every night, i had bad skin now its smooth and soft the only time i get blemish's is when its my time of the month or i stop doing this treatment.

    This stuff made my acne absolutely horrible. Before I started using it, my acne was very mild.. I just wanted to clear it up a bit. Now, after about a week of using it, my skin could be considered moderate-severe. I started using Acne Free in hopes of clearing this up, but all I can say is... good luck!
