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


 

Check these out, too...

  • Musical collabs we totally heart
  • Beauty Spy: Fresh faced and simple Ann Marie E.
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 have a pretty good acne system. I sometimes use a mudmask thing. U only need a little 4 ur entire face. Then I use Stridex pads to clean my pores. Next I use Clean and Clear deep pore (its really strong). Last, if I have a pimple somewhere, I use Clearsil on it. DO NOT WASH THE CLEARSIL AWAY!!!! But I had a huge pimple once and it was gone in 2 days with Clearsil.

so when i get up in the morning my face is a little bit oily, but then after a wash my face its super dry. but then it seems like as soon as i get to school my face is very oily again...its actually kinda gross. so what kind of skin do i have? and what products would you recommend?

 

Hey chica! You seem to have oily skin, but you don't seem to be moisturizing it right! Because it doesn't have enough moisturizer after you wash it, it produces extra oil, which makes it so icky once you get to school! Try using something for oily skin and focusing on moisturizing. xoxo

I really want to use this stuff in the article, but am afraid it will be a bit too expensive. Is there an off-brand (like Target) of this line that is cheaper but will have the same effect? Thanks so much!! Smile

 

Hey girl! I'm not sure if there's a target brand that's the same as clean & clear, but  I do know that they sell the clean & clear products at target ranging from about $3-$5 in price. I would check that out, but if that's too expensive test out some target brand or other inexpensive face washes and similar products to find the ones that are right for you! xoxo

Please reply!!!!!!
Okay, so I don't make friends that easily and I am starting 9th grade. I never hang out with friends after school or talk to them. Can you give me any tips on how to make more friends and how to ask for their phone number or ask them to go somewhere after school (for ex. their house)? And if I do hang out with them after school, what am I suppose to say? Becuz I am really shy and don't talk that much. Thank you so much!!!!!!

 

Hey chicky! To make friends, try and join new clubs and meet some people that you haven't talked to much before.  Joining a club automatically gives you something to talk about- the club! Try inviting people to come with you places (to your house, or to grab an ice cream cone at your fave place).  Try and have an activity in mind- like catching a movie on TV you really want to see or going shopping for a dress for a school dance.  That way, you can talk about that if the conversation slows down on other things.  Good luck! xoxo
