-417 Cleansing Gel is Havoc for dry skin!

If you saw my Christmas Glossybox video you will know that I initially was very excited and happy about the -417 Cleansing Gel. It worked GREAT for the first week or so. Removed makeup, cleansed the skin leaving it feeling really clean, no dryness!


Well. As you probably know, and as I SURELY KNOW, one or two weeks is not enough to form a proper opinion on a skin care item. Well.. I got carried away by my initial impression and ignored all signs of problems. They were there, but I ignored them..

So, now I sit here with a face in total havoc! Red inflamed pimples, whiteheads and other unidentifiable bumps and an uneven skin tone.. I took this picture just a few moments ago:


My skin is now dehydrated (the pores are looking "excausted"), acne inflamed and full of bumps. I know for a fact that it is the cleansing gel that caused this because it is the only thing I have changed in my skin care routine. Also, my skin rarely reacts like this to products. 

It will take a few weeks for this to settle down. It sucks but oh well. I only have myself to blame!

The product is geared towards "all skin types" but I can assure you that if you have dry skin you need to stay away from this one!
