Cyclic Soap!

Oh and by the way, the soap I mention in the big long update blog is helping! A lot! It's called Cyclic. I buy the Silver kind and am using it twice a day until I get through the worst of these big eruptions, then I'll go back to once a day. I'm still doing most of the things in the action plan as well.
It was recommended to me by a woman working at a local beauty supply store, but they also sell it online at www.nanocyclic.com . You can get a small bar for $10 that will last a month. So it's not too crazy expensive to give it a shot.
Some important things to know while using it:
1. It's super fragile, so you need to keep it away from moisture and heat.
2. When you're using it, wet your hands and face first, then rub the soap to get a little lather, just a few seconds and then put the soap down and lather your hands more. If you wet the bar itself, it dissolves really quickly and won't last as long.
3. Pat it gently on your face. Don't scrub.
4. Don't use any harsh abrasives, exfoliaters while you're using it! It gently sloughs the skin off, so just rub it with your fingers as you rinse.
5. Aloe tone and moisturize afterwards!

And as with all products, I always remind myself, recognize that the picking is a deeper issue than just the physical one. Use them to help the healing process, but the bigger work is a deep dive inward!
Wishing you love and success on your journey!
