This Woman's All Natural Cure For Her Cystic Acne Has Gone Viral

This Woman's All Natural Cure For Her Cystic Acne Has Gone Viral

Acne is a skin condition, mostly caused by genetics and lifestyle, affecting millions of people worldwide. It can cause serious emotional stress on an individual and its toll on everyday life is vastly underrated.

Which is why thousands of people around the world have shared the game-changing skincare routine that model, Brianna Lopez, says cured her cystic acne. 

"I just wanted to make a little post about skin because I've struggled with mine so much, and I really feel like I need to stop pretending like I haven't," she wrote on Instagram. 

"Especially in the industry I am trying to get into, it can be very deceiving about body image and skin. This is my skin at its worst on the lefts and now on the right. This was a hard time and I was very bothered by it. Didn't want to leave my room or even have my own parents look at me."

{{ I didn't expect this many people to respond to this post. I want to help everyone asking what I use and I will make a short video later today explaining what i do. I have a final in like an hour so I'm just tying to study right now. My skin isn't perfect. But it has come along way and I want to share the progress with everyone}} I just wanted to make a little post about skin because I've struggled with mine so much, and i really feel like I need to stop pretending like i haven't. Especially in the industry I am trying to get into, it can be very deceiving about body image and skin. This is my skin at its worst on the lefts and now on the right. This was a hard time and I was very bothered by it. Didn't want to leave my room or even have my own parents look at me. I still have scarring left which I am working with a doctor to fix because to be a model you basically need to be "perfect". Which no one is and I am not claiming to be perfect at all. There are worse things that can happen to you in life than acne. But getting acne takes a really big toll on your life. I'm willing to answer any questions anyone might have. Just needed to get this out there because it is apart of who I am and my story. ( this was really hard to do so please don't say anything mean 🙃)

 Her before and after images proved so popular that she shared the secret behind her transformation in a subsequent post.

"I'm not saying that everyone has to do this to have decent skin. Commercial products may work for some people. But it didn't for me. Just made things worse."

Instead, she uses:

  • Jojoba oil 
  • A honey, cinnamon and turmeric face mask
  • Lavender oil
  • Raw Shea butter for spot treating
  • Raw Elements sunblock

She revealed that she eats a pescetarian diet and also shared the additional herbs that helped get her skin under control, but recommended that her followers do their own research.

{{ok editing this really quick cus I think people think I do this every day. I only reaaply moisturizer and sunblock in the mornings and do the oil cleansing and mask at night IF I had on makeup that day. If I didn't wear makeup I would just leave my face alone all the time}} I feel really dumb cus I wanted to make a video but Instagram wouldn't upload it. So I'm Just gonna show u guys picks. 1) i double cleanse with jojoba oil and wipe it off with a hot wash rag 2) i usually do a honey mask mixed with turmeric and cinnamon 3) i have two other masks that I like to use , sulfur mask and bentonit clay mask, but the honey one is my fave 4) I'll moisturize with the shea terra organics perfecting serum and doterra lavender oil 5) at night i'll spot treat with raw shea butter 5) I use the raw elements sunblock pretty much everyday 6) the last slide is the herbs I took to get my skin under control (please do your research on herbs before you take them(ill put a link in my bio for a video about herbs that really helped me) I only do all these steps if I had make up that day. So if I don't wear make up for a few days in a row, I just re-apply the two oils and some sunblock in the morning. I think that's pretty much it. I'm also pescatarian so I don't eat mammal meat but I eat fish. My diet is decent( I'm studying to be a nutritionist) this is what worked for me. I'm not saying that everyone has to do this to have decent skin. Commercial products may work for some people. But it didn't for me. Just made things worse. My skin still isn't "perfect". I'm gonna go through the comments on the other posts and go through the DMs to answer everyone one but there is a lot so bare with me. Feel free to ask more questions here if you need to. Hope this help some people.❤️ ( also just adding this in, if you don't wear make up, then I would suggest just leaving your skin completely alone. Look up the caveman regimen)

Brianna Lopez had such a high demand from people all over the world that she has also released a YouTube video to further discuss her skin transformation and how she grew as a person from the experience.

While she is by no means a medical professional, her skincare journey is proof that so many of us battle acne demons and different treatments work for each and every one of us.
