first blog post with a starting point for skin care

hello this is my first blog post my name is Andrew and I am currently at university and a little bit nerdy. I was inspired to right this blog after being asked by multiple people about acne skin care since my skin has cleared up (finally). This came more apparent when my mum asked me what I was using and suggestions since my brother's acne was getting bad and needed advice on what to get to help sort it out. I have spent a lot of time trying different skin care products to try to sort my acne out and thought it might help some others with their skin and help them to feel better. To start with the blog will be bi-monthly to see how it goes and to see what everyone will want.

If there is anything you would like me to look in to or give any tips about please comment and I will try to cover it in my next post. Sorry if my spelling is bad. all links to company/products that are mention will have their links at the bottom with a rough price for each product. all images are not mine and belong to their respective owners

One products that I would suggest to start with is bulldog face wash and the face scrub as it will give you an idea as to if you need something stronger or not. bulldog is a British company which produce a verity of different face washes. The face wash will also help moisturise your skin as you wash so will not have to worry about your skin becoming dry and itch in response to washing your face. here is a couple of images of some of their products





These work as a good starting point to see exactly what your skin will need to help with your acne. with these you can also fit which one you buy to the type of skin you have to help take care of it. also with bulldog products you can get 10% of your first order by signing up to their news letter and free delivery on orders over £20.

If you find that your acne is not quite under control after using bulldog for a little while the next thing that I would suggest which I am currently using which is the tea tree face wash and face scrub from the body shop since the tea tree oil in the product helps with acne and also makes your skin feel good afterwards. their products are also not animal tested and work with charities to protect wildlife and the rainforest. The face scrub is good as it as smaller beads in meaning it can clean your skin better and remove more dead skin. Here are some images of the products I have just mentioned.

The body shop also run a good rewards card which gives you 10 points for every £1 you spend and once you have 500 points you will get a £5 voucher on your card to use when you want. Also often have discount codes on their website allowing you to save money on your orders. you can also use your rewards card vouchers on your orders as well. You can get free delivery on orders over £20 which normally comes on the first day of it's predicted delivery date.

In my next post I will cover further acne skin care with a more full on care plan which will help your skin clear up and also feel extremely soft.
