A Flawless Face for the Acne Prone

Yeah that’s right, my skin sucks.  For those of you who think I have flawless skin… I’m sorry I’ve been deceptive.  My skin goes through cycles and right now… I’m going through a bad one haha!  I’m fairly positive I need to start changing my pillow case like every other day and I also need to stop sleeping on my hand.  But how do you force yourself to not sleep on your hand?  I must be doomed for life.

We’ve become great friends over the last few weeks… maybe even best friends.

So there is absolutely zero retouching on these photos.  As you can see, the breakouts are still there.  Nothing erases zits in real life- dangit.  But the overall texture and skin tone are 10000% times better!  Click here to get a TEMPTU Starter Kit — it’s on super sale 🙂

I was asked to recreate one of my favorite beauty trends from the Spring 2014 runway shows.  I loved the Neo Romantic collection from Nanette Lepore.  It brought such a girly and romantic vibe to the runway.  I loved the ditzy floral prints and the bold lips– I’m such a sucker for bold lips.  Because it’s still winter, I thought I’d go with a small floral print dress in winter colors, some bold lips, careless curls and of course, a flawless face.

  1. Wow,this is an awesome post.I liked the way of presentation of this article. Thanks to share this article. It’s very resourceful for us.Thanks for the post.

  2. Just a thought – You could wear white cotton gloves while you sleep? In theory, you could do double duty by applying lotion, then gloves, but it would also keep oils from your hands from transferring to your face. It may not be the most attractive, unless your guy is in to mimes, but it might help your face.

  3. I read that your face needs to be completely hair/fuzz free, any little peach fuzz with become very obvious. I have a little peach fuzz that isn’t noticeable with my normal makeup, but I’m worried that it would be with this.

  4. Totally understand the sleeping on my hand problem! Or sleeping too close to your husband that never washes his face… I don’t know if you have that problem too haha. Just wanted you to know you are super photogenic! So glad I am following you now on bloglovin 🙂 I need more beauty blogger tips!

  5. I found you on the Fashion Indie site with all the tutorials. I am so glad I did. I have crappy skin too and have always battled acne. I have finally gotten it somewhat under control with Rodan + Fields Unblemish. Anyway, I have never wanted to do a tutorial because of my skin and you just inspired me to go for it. It’s refreshing that you have enough confidence to show everyone your true self and that you don’t have flawless skin. There are sooooo many of us out there!! I totally voted for you because of this and loved your tutorial.

    1. It’s so funny you mentioned lulu and sweet pea because she actually guest posted that article on my site forever ago!! I tried it and it didn’t work for me. I think mine is hormonal 🙁
