What I've Been Loving: Beauty Edition

What I've Been Loving: Beauty Edition by lyndseycamille featuring Clinique

During the past few weeks, the beauty products above have helped to clear up my skin and fade my acne scars. The Clinique Acne Solutions is an easy three step system that cleans and improves my skin while not drying it out. I always use an exfoliating pad along with the cleansing foam from the Acne Solutions system in order to get out any make-up, dirt, and oils from my pores. The exfoliating pad also helps to fade my dark spots by allowing my skin to regenerate more quickly. The clarifying lotion helps to get rid of acne bumps such as pimples on my skin while the all-over clearing treatments helps to pinpoint entire problem areas. The best thing about the three-system is that each product can be used individually. To finish off with my favorite skincare products, I love to use Neutrogena's Visibly Even Moisturizer. This moisturizer helps to fade dark spots and utilizes SPF to keep skin protected. I use this product every morning and after weeks of using the products, I have noticed improvement in my complexion, in both brightness and the amount of dark spots.

Beauty 101: My Summer Skincare Staples

Summer Skincare Products by lyndseycamille featuring Clinique

1. For the past 5-6 weeks, I have been using the Clinique Acne Solutions products. These products have done wonders with controlling my occasional breakouts and oiliness of my skin. This product is especially useful for the summer heat which causes me to sweat even more by removing the excess oils and bacteria.
2. A self-controlled exfoliator is a great product for anyone with oily skin, dark spots, or just feels like their skin needs some rejuvenation. With an exfoliating pad or brush, you can more easily control the harshness of the brush which can be a big factor for people with sensitive skin. During the high temps, skin can get clogged with oil and an exfoliator can clean up all those pores!
3. A nice moisturizer is needed all year long to keep skin protected from the sun with built in sunscreen and hydrated. I like to use Neutrogena Visibly Even, both the everyday moisturizer and BB Cream when I want some coverage, to keep my skin looking fresh with a little glow. 
4. I have recently (recently as of yesterday) purchased African Black Soap in order to control the slight breakouts I have noticed appearing of my shoulders. Multiple reviews state that the black soap will help control and rid of the acne with the use of natural ingredients that will control my skin's oiliness and the pre-existing problem spots.

Beauty 101: Top 4 Warm Weather Essentials

Top 4 Warm Weather Essentials by lyndseycamille featuring clinique

1. SPF/Sunscreen! SPF protects your skin from the harmful rays of the sun and prevents skin diseases such as skin cancer. Not only do you need to wear SPF to the beach, but also remember to apply it whenever your outdoors during the warm weather seasons.
2. Chapstick! Chapstick is like sunscreen for the lips and helps to keep them soft, smooth, and protected. Chapped lips are just not a good look and they and they begin to hurt if you don't apply chapstick to keep them looking good.
3. Exfoliator! During the summer there so much sweat and oil build up in your skin that you need to exfoliate with an exfoliating cream or brush to open up clogged pores filled with nasty bacteria. However, you only want to exfoliate one to two times a week so your skin doesn't become weak from over-exfoliating. 
4. Moisturizer! Although the weather is heating up and your skin is getting oilier, you still want to apply a moisturizer with the right ingredients to nurture  your skin and keep it looking it best.
