dermala’s incredible #fobo kits

first up, the cleanser
the first product i tried from the kit was this amazing cleanser, called CLEANSE with benefits™. it’s a morning and night cleanser that focuses on gently removing dirt and excess oil from your skin. it doesn’t dehydrate your skin at all, and feels absolutely amazing once on.
to go into a bit more detail about the ingredients in the cleanser- there’s an amazing se microbiome complex® in it that’s one of the key ingredients making this cleanser so effective. the microbiome is a combination of prebiotics and postbiotics that naturally live on our skin. keeping our microbiome in balance is incredibly effective in reducing acne (by killing the bacteria that causes it), helping with inflammation, and nourishing the “good bacteria” (aka, the bacteria that helps fight acne) on your face. the other ingredients include natural plant oils, vitamins, and amino acids- all amazing ingredients that help to soothe and hydrate your skin!
if you’re looking for a quick review on this cleanser- that’s easy. buy it! i always have breakouts, especially in warmer weather, and this cleanser has been my go-to morning and night.

next up, my personal favorite product- the scantily pad!
i’m not kidding when i say that i use this product every night. it’s called SCANTILY pad™, and it is an am/pm acne treatment, and it’s so so helpful and makes such a big difference! i use these pads morning and night to help maintain my acne, and they genuinely make a huge difference (that’s almost immediately noticeable). after washing my face well with the cleanser, i use one pad to wipe my face (morning and night) to areas of my face where acne is acting up and i have a few breakouts. i don’t apply any other products after using the pad, and i don’t need to! i wake up in the morning with significantly less breakouts, and repeat the process.
this acne treatment helps to calm acne breakouts, and prevents breakouts without any harmful side effects! the pads don’t itch, make your skin red, or dry out your skin, which are all definitely problems i’ve had with acne treatments in the past. i noticed a decrease in inflammation and breakouts about a week into using these SCANTILY pads, and even more of a difference as i continue to use them!
in terms of ingredients, this treatment has the same se micobiome complex® as the cleanser, but it’s combined with aloe vera and salicylic acid. aloe vera is a succulent plant traditionally used to calm sunburns, but it’s amazing for your skin as well! on the same note, salicylic acid comes from the bark of willow trees, and is a skin staple for exfoliating, unclogging pores, and getting rid of dead skin cells. with this unique combination of ingredients, the bad bacteria that hangs out on your face and causes acne is killed off, while the good bacteria grows!

finally, acne spot treatment with patch me (if you can)
these patch me (if you can)™ treatment acne patches are absolutely amazing! they’re one of the most effective acne spot treatment products i have ever tried, and i have already recommended these to so many of my friends and family members (my mom is hooked on them too)! i use them as needed, but usually at night and sleep with them on (but i’ve also stuck a few on during the day for off-camera zoom meetings (shhh, don’t tell anyone!).
these are, simply put, a miracle product. they’re drug free, and incredibly effective. in addition to being moisture rich and helping to hydrate your skin, these pimple patches lower the ph in the skin covered by the patch, acting as a physical barrier so you don’t pick at your skin, spreading bacteria on your face in the process. our hands are really dirty and every time we touch our face, we spread a bit of bacteria. physical barriers, like these patches, act as a reminder to stop touching our face and limit the spread of bacteria!
i use these miracle patches after my face is washed and completely dry. i peel one off the sheet and stick it on any spots or blemishes i want to focus on, and leave it on for a few hours! i usually leave them on overnight (which is ideal), but if not, i’ll leave them on for three to five hours. they are also super easy to take off- you just peel it off your face! if you need to you can use a bit of warm water to remove the patches, but you shouldn’t need to. you can also apply these after you use the treatment pads i talked about above for optimal results!
