I used to have rather bad skin when I was a teenager. My skin used to be really oily which led to pimples and acne and scarring of my skin. Although my skin is no longer oily and is now dry instead on the surface, it is still oily underneath which leads to pimples every now and then. In fact, as I blog, I am currently plagued with several large pimples! I really don’t know how they got there as my skin was perfectly fine just about a week ago!

Anyway, whenever I have pimples, I always reach for my trusty Kanebo Blanchir Whitening Smoothing Conditioner (Medicated). I was recommended this by my beautician in Kanebo when she found I had some stubborn pimples. It is a treatment that is specially formulated for those with oily skin. When applied, it absorbs the oil on your face, hence smoothening the skin and reducing pore size. It is recommended to be applied at night and usually on the T-zone.

I’ve never used it as a lotion. However, I found it tremendously good for pimples! Everytime I get a nasty pimple, I dab a tiny bit on the pimple and within a few days, I usually find that my pimples have gone down. However, due to its drying properties, it tends to dry out the skin area around the pimple a little so do be careful to put up with a bit of dry and peeling skin.

I have found it much better than Oxy Pimple Gels or Clearasil which tended to be a little too harsh for my skin. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is still suffering from pimples despite having past those teenage years!
