My skin and I have been at odds with each other for the longest time. I don’t necessarily have normal to oily skin, but dry to oily skin. It’s really been a quagmire to find a product that won’t further dry out the dry areas, but won’t also moisturize too much in the oily areas either.
Several weeks ago I began using Epionce’s Lytic Gel Cleanser and Purifying Lytic Toner, both are geared towards problem skin types. Both products are fragrance free and non-comedogenic. I was, of course, skeptical that this would be the product to reduce that shine, yet still keep the dry sections of my face from further damage.
Before I even get into how the product worked, I liked right away how the Lytic Gel Cleanser’s top had an open/close twist to it. This is perfect for when you have to travel and pack it away, so that it is not leaking all over your clothes. Furthermore, as a parent, it means little fingers cannot get a hold of it and pump away my precious product.
The Lytic Gel Cleanser was used first and I noticed that I only needed less than a pea size amount to cover my entire face in a good lather. I immediately felt it working, as my skin began tingling. Nothing that hurt or stung, but merely felt like it was working on those pores and getting down to business. Once I rinsed my face, it literally felt like all the dirt and grime had been washed away and I really felt refreshed.
I applied the Purifying Lytic Toner by spraying it on a cotton pad and sweeping it over my skin. This toner didn’t feel like it was stripping my face or drying it out. It seemed to target the areas that were in need of the most help (the T-zone).
I applied my usual moisturizer and I have to say, there really was a dramatic difference in my skin. There seemed to be much less oil on my skin, which also meant I really didn’t need to use my other beauty products meant to conceal the shine. I also noticed that my normally dry areas could now be considered normal, as they were no longer peeling.
This is a definite must-have product if you have problem skin like mine.
