My One Month with Relumins Acne Clear Range (Review)

Hey everyone!

I have so many skin concerns that I am currently trying to fix. One of those (and probably the one I've been struggling with the longest) is my acne problem. This runs in the family—both my parents, my brother, and my sister shared the same problem. I've been dealing with this half my life and so I quickly agreed to use this skincare when I was offered to review this by flawlessbeautyandskincareph.com.

I received this kit more than a month ago and it is comprised of four skincare products:

Relumins Advance White Acne Clear Foam

Relumins Advance White Acne Clear Soap

Relumins Advance White Acne Clear Solution

Relumins Advance White Acne Clear Serum

The whole set is worth Php 1,900.00.

Here are some info about the products and how to use them from the website:

This brand new set of Relumins Acne Clear products are formulated with multi-active ingredients that work synergistically to fight against acne. The result is naturally clear, healthy-looking skin.

• Reduce enlargement of sebaceous gland
• Helps reduce acne and prevent future breakouts with Salicylic Acid, naturally derived from Willow Bark
• Promotes Collagen biosynthesis
• Peels off clogged pores

• Prevent aggravation of acne due to environmental and mental stress

Relumins is dedicated to bringing you safe and effective products to help you achieve your personal best beauty results with advanced solutions from nature.


INGREDIENTS:
Water, EDTA, Virgin Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Aloe, Salicylic Acid, 
Rehmannia Chinensis Root , Soybean Seed , Pear Ferment, Willow Bark Extract , Neem leaf , Phelledendron Amurense Bark Extract ,Scutellaria baicalensis root, Houttuynia Cordata Extract

Directions for use:
1. Wet skin and gently lather face and body with Relumins Acne Clear Soap. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Pump cleanser (Relumins Acne Clear Foam Facial Wash) into your hands and work into lather. Massage lather onto skin with a gentle, circular motion, avoiding contact with the delicate eye area. Rinse and pat dry with a soft towel.
3. Apply Relumins Acne Clear Solution (Toner) directly on face, moving outward up and under chin and neck. 
4. Apply Relumins Acne Clear Serum on active blemishes.

     *** Use foam facial wash, toner and serum AM and PM.

SAFETY: Before use, perform a SPOT TEST to test for sensitivity as follows: Apply to the intended area of use for up to one 30 seconds.  If rash, burning or inflammation occur, immediately remove the product from skin and discontinue all further use.


I use the facial foam and the soap interchangeably on my face but I also use the soap on my body that has some acne as well.

I use the products everyday in the morning and in the evening. The set lasted around a month and a week (but I still have a few of the soap left). During the month that I used this, I never encountered any irritations.

I documented my face every two weeks to see the effects on my face. See the pictures below:

The third pic was taken in a slightly dimmer room. I didn't get two-three tones darker. :P 

Anyway, as you can see on the photos, there wasn't really a change on my skin condition. I still get a few breakouts here and there and the time it took to heal my acne and dark scars is pretty much the same as when I use my other skincare products. It's not bad but I just want a faster acting treatment for my skin.

But it still did some good bits like lessen the redness of my skin and also, it's really good at cleaning your face, especially after a long day at work and wearing makeup. 

I'm not fully convinced with the products to be honest so I don't think I'll continue using them. I guess they are just not that compatible with my skin. So for now, I'm still on the search for the best skincare for me. Good news is, I just received other skincare goodies to try. :D


Cheers,
DAWN

  2. How is it on your pores? And do you know what active ingredients the line relies on? :)

    1. Nothing different on my pores... I don't notice any difference. :( I'm not knowledgeable about the ingredients but they are listed on the website along with their functions: http://www.relumins.com/products/relumins-medicated-professional-acne-clear-solutiontoner
