GL's Skincare Sessions: Score clear skin in 3 steps with Clean & Clear Essentials

We’re always in search of skincare products that’ll deliver healthy, glowing skin. Since tons of derms tell us that using a regular, three-step system (cleanser, toner and moisturizer) will whip our complexion into oh-so-clear shape, we enlisted two GL beauty vloggers to check out the Clean & Clear Essentials lines, then show us how to rock a routine that works.

 

Clean & Clear Essentials for oily skin


 

If you have oily or combination skin—basically, if you’re super shiny at the end of the day or suffer from acne—this set is perf for your skin.

 

Jane begins with the Clean & Clear Essentials oil-free cleanser, which is powerful enough to remove makeup, dirt and oil. Then she uses the astringent formulated with salicylic acid to blast hidden oils and other pore-clogging bacteria. She finishes up with the oil-free moisturizer to combat pimples and blackheads while keeping her skin smooth. Jane’s favorite part? It doubles as a makeup primer.

 

Clean & Clear Essentials for sensitive skin

 

 

This set is for gals with dry or combination skin. Translation? You’re oily in the t-zone (forehead, nose and chin), but dryer around your cheeks. Babes with combination or dry skin may or may not suffer from acne.

 

Lisa begins with the Clean & Clear Essentials sensitive cleanser, massaging in small circles to boost circulation. The second step in Lisa’s routine, the deep cleansing toner, also contains salicylic acid—but the gentle formula won’t dry out sensitive skin. Lisa finishes with the moisturizer to keep skin hydrated and fend off pimples.

 

Do you use a three-step skin regimen? What are your tips for maintaining a clear complexion? Blog about it, beauty babes!

i use all the recomended products, but i still get acne!!!uUsually, i only get smaller pimples, not large zits, but they are still really noticable. the only way to make bumps go away is to pick at them, and then they turn red and scar!!!how do i prevent this and what is causing it??

Hey girl,

It can be tempting to pick, but that only makes things worse! Acne can be caused by a variety of things -- not exercising enough, not eating right, not getting enough sleep, stress, hormones or other factors. If over the counter products aren't helping, talk to your parents about seeing a doctor/guardian for your acne so they can help you clear your skin up!

I always get bite by mosquitos and I can't help but scratch. It looks REALLY bad. How can I protect from mosquitos and how can hide thos red mosquito bites? (they are even on my face!)

 

 Hey girl, I know what you mean, mosquitos love me too. Just make sure to wear bug spray! Or, you could try rubbing dryer sheets all over too. It's probably better not to cover mosquito bites with makeup, but put anti-itch cream or spray on it to help with the scratching. Good luck!

For clean & clear, i have th 2nd "part", nothing else, of clean & clear. I use Cetaphil than the liquid clean & clear. is that ok? Xoxo




Hey girl, I think with face routines, different things work for different people. Experiment with it and if it keeps your skin clear, then it's perfectly fine. xoxo

*Mod*
Could u please reply to the question I asked b4? Also, how long does it take for questions to be answered?comments to be posted?

Hey girl,

I don't have any previous questions from you, but if you repost I will be happy to answer! We have live mods from 9am until 1am, but how long questions take to be answered depends on how many are submitted at one time!
