A basic 5-step routine to get rid of acne

Growing up, I used to have easy-to-care-for, acne free skin. I rarely had pimples, let alone full-blown acne breakouts.
But, everything changed when I hit my 20s. I would get red, angry pustules on my cheek and I couldn't figure out why. I hadn't changed my simple 2-step cleanse and moisturise skincare routine in years, so why was my skin only acting out now?
Through a lot of trial and error, I experimented with different products to try and attain the skin I used to have in my youth. I still get an occasional pimple, but my skin now is calmer and smoother. These products are what I use and hopefully, it will help some of you out too.
2. Tone
Use an anti-bacterial toner to help sweep away excess oil and dirt that the cleanser missed. I always apply my toner with a cotton and get a kick of seeing how dirty the pad is even though I already cleansed my face once.
Available at Laneige stores and counters.
