You are probably doing the best thing for your skin ever, your genetics and life habits will be the only factors for beautiful skin. Do not wash your face with cleanser (not even with organic soap unless you spent your day in a coal mine!!) apply anything on your skin (not even mineral sunscreen), mechanical protection is best (hats, long sleeves), it will heal and exfoliates naturally. It takes time (good results within a few weeks, final results in a year). This method has been introduced by a Japanese plastic surgeon, Ryuichi Utsugi, many many years ago, his book "skin fasting" is mostly unkown to the western world. Skin is an excretory and protective organ, it is meant to be fed from within not from the outside. Congrats! (I am a 52 year old French woman and beauty is no joke, I use the same regimen as you, my sons also use the same method and have gorgeous acne free skin).
Thank you for your message. I stoped using most of my skincare from a long time as well, and my skin looks better. The only thing I use is mineral sunscreen in the morning (to protect from UV light) and moisturizing cream in the evening (cuz Why not). And I wash my face few times per day just with water.. im keeping it simple
i realised that after skincare my skin got way worse after 7 months week after week, its been 3 weeks of just using water and my skin has cleared up for the first time in ages crazy.
You obviously have 'grown out' of your problem. However, there are people like me who have suffered many many many years of cystic acne which required specialist treatment. I have lived on antibiotics most of my life. I have not used any creams or potions just micellar water to clean my face but I still needed professional treatment. So whilst you were lucky not everybody's skin will appreciate the 'cave man' treatment. If you have a serious acne problem please see a dermatologist.
