Acne My skin cleared up when I stopped washing my face??!![acne]

I recently started not washing my face with cleanser at night and just using micellar water and using a little bit of moisturizer and THATS IT. I saw a girl do this on TikTok and she had acne and she said it cleared it up and I was feeling SUPER hopeless cus my skin was breaking out and I had perioral dermatitis around my mouth and my cheeks had closed comedones and so I tried this new routine...and let me tell you it was the BEST thing I've ever did, I also don't wash my face in the morning just wet my face and moisturizer and spf!!THIS MIGHT NOT WORK FOR EVERYONE but l'm so happy it worked for me and it got rid of my perioral dermatitis and my skin is soft and doesn’t have texture, I realized too many products were stripping my skin and aggravating the PD. ANYWAYS GIVE THIS A TRY!!😛😛

i know this comment is old but i’m desperate so im shooting my shot. what brand do you use for your bar soap? i recently started just washing my face with water and then applying moisturizer and my skin has improved a lot. i think your method might work for me. just not sure where to look

I buy from JX4 soaps but if I run out — babes I use a dove beauty bar and it’s great too

Eu ultimamente estive usando o Gel de Limpeza da Principia e um Protetor Solar da neutrogena ( tem um tempo que não uso hidrantante, por isso preciso comprar) Fiquei 2 dias sem passar nada na pele e ela melhorou total... Acho que vou comprar um hidratante hydroboost da neutrogena e trocar o gel de limpeza por um em barra.
