Do I wash twice a day?
I've always had clear skin and a very simple skincare routine. My skin has always been on the dry side and I'd maybe get a pimple or two on my chin and between my eyebrows only. In January of this year, I ran out of my products and felt like I wasn't doing enough (I wanted the glowy dewy skin I see online), so I switch up my routine. I bought a new cleanser (la Roche posay foaming), a moisturizer (weleda skin food), and a night time moisturizer (la Roche posay cicaplast). Also included toner milk. I learned after a month or so that maybe it wasn't the best idea and started getting closed comedones around my chin. I stopped immediately and went back to the cleanser and double repair moisturizer from la Roche posay once a day. The comedones started spreading up my chin and around my mouth, and I started developing cysts. The acne is only on my chin (around mouth) and between my eyebrows still, but I haven't been able to get much control of it since. It's been like 3 weeks now and I have this cluster of cysts slowly healing but I feel like I get a new deep comedones every day! I'm tired of it! I started azelaic acid this week but not sure what to do. Do I cleanse once or twice a day? Not sure what's going on. The comedones I used to get I could pop easily and these don't they just turn into deep cysts. Help!
