Those who have met me will probably recognize that I have rather bad skin, no thanks to the ravages of acne since I turned 13 years old. That is a long time ago *sigh* I have tried many over the counter lotion and even seen skin specialist but the results were not long lasting. How I wish that I could have great skin once again. I believe my self-worth and confidence will raise a few notches as well.
There was once that I read that benzoyl peroxide helps and to apply this to the entire face which I did. To my horror, my skin burnt and I had to go around with a reddish face with darker spots where acne used to be. You see, I am Chinese and this was the reaction caused to my skin. And no wonder too, because the person who gave me advised me is a Caucasian and reacts differently.
Today, I am introduced to ORIKI Cosmeceuticals. This skin care range is specially formulated by an American Board Certified dermatologist and biochemist for Asian, Mediterranean and Olive (AMO) skin tones. This basically means people with tanned skin will find that ORIKI range of skin care products suits them better.
According to Dr. Tuan Nguyen, the founder of ORIKI Cosmeceuticals, we cannot just categorize skin types into Oily, Dry, Normal or Combination. See, I knew that all along because no matter which product that was recommended to me that was for Oily, made my face oilier, if that is possible. I am so glad that Dr. Tuan Nguyen has proven that! I read on the website of ORIKI that a pimply face like mine would benefit from their Cleansing and Toning Lotions and an application of Rejuvenating Cream just before bed.
I know that part of my problem stems from the stressful lifestyle as well as environmental factors but I think I SHOULD be proactive and do something about it. I probably will give ORIKI a shot.
