I want to open up about my simple yet effective skincare routine that I've refined over time. I’ll also share my weekly video journals below to show my skin’s progress. Don't forget to check out the detailed video guide on my YouTube channel below.
My Journey with Oily, Acne-Prone Skin: Morning & Night Routine
Consistency: The Golden Rule
Let's face it, consistency is crucial, especially when you're gunning for results.
My morning and night routines are all about being strict, simple, and routine. I stick to the same process for both AM and PM.
According to the article below by Dr. Sandra Lee, AKA Dr. Pimple Popper, perfect skin does not happen overnight! Below are the 4 reasons she says why!
#1 PRODUCTS DON’T WORK OVERNIGHT
#2 YOUR SKIN’S STILL TURNING OVER
#3 PREVENTION IS EASIER THAN TREATMENT

Shaybleu Step-by-Step Guide to Clearer Skin
1. Cleansing with PanOxyl: First, I use PanOxyl face wash with 10% benzoyl peroxide. At 36, acne is still a reality, and this product has been a game-changer.
2. Cold Water Wash: I wash my face with cold water after the shower. This helps avoid the pore-clogging effects of hot water.
3. Apple Cider Vinegar Toning: I dilute Bragg's apple cider vinegar with water and gently apply it with a cotton pad. This natural toner is fantastic for balancing the skin's pH.
4. Aloe Vera for Nourishment: I apply fresh Aloe Vera gel directly from the plant onto my face. It's amazing for fading dark marks and hydrating the skin.
5. Hydration and Protection: Finally, I lock in the moisture with Neutrogena's Hydro Boost SPF 50. It's hydrating without being greasy – perfect for oily skin.
Strive for at least 8 glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated and working properly
The Pillowcase Hack: A little side note – I change my pillowcases weekly because side-sleeping and face-rubbing can trigger breakouts.
