Acne and blemishes! You know the feeling – waking up in the morning and taking a look in the mirror to find that overnight a new little red bump has climbed out of your skin and made itself comfortable on the tip of your nose or the corner of your chin. Ugh. Acne, Blemishes. Didn’t we outgrow this?
Unfortunately, many factors can lead to oily skin at any age. For some, it’s simply in their genes. For others additional oil can be brought on by a hormone shift (such as pregnancy or menopause), a change in the climate or by their diet. Some people experience oiler skin in the warmer months or following a particularly hot and sweaty activity such as a workout or day spent working outdoors. Additionally, an overly acidic diet may lead to blemishes and acne.
3 Simple Steps to Better Skin
No matter the cause, the most effective way to keep those pesky bumps away is through a consistent skin care routine. Happily, L’BRI has the solution for clean, clear skin, starting with the simple 3-step process of cleansing, freshening or toning, and moisturizing:
- Cleanse to remove daily skin impurities such as dirt, dead skin cells, or extra oil.
- Freshen or Tone to complete the cleaning process, balance your skin’s pH, and allow for more effective penetration of your moisturizer.
- Moisturize to hydrate your skin and help diminish the signs of aging, which can include fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, or loose skin.
A solid skin care routine can help you avoid the pitfalls of bad skin including dirt and oil buildup that can lead to clogged pores, blemishes, and acne breakouts as well as dull, dry skin that may make you look and feel older. When done correctly and consistently, the right skin care routine can help maintain healthy skin and protect it from the harsh effects of any environment.
Acne Concerns? The oil-control skin care routine that is right for you.
If your skin is oily, shiny, and consistently blemished, the L’BRI Oil Control-Trio is the perfect fit for your natural skin care routine. This complete system includes a cleanser, freshener, and moisturizer which are specially designed to work together to gently and effectively cleanse, tone, and moisturize your skin. And the best part? It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!
Step 1: Oil-Control Cleanser:
Start by removing built up oil with this powerful, yet gentle gel cleanser that combats skin breakouts associated with excessively oily skin. Oil-Control Cleanser helps control oily skin, minimize breakouts and red bumps, and unclog pores without over-drying the skin.
L’BRI products use Aloe vera as the first product instead of water, and the Oil-Control Cleanser is no different. Aloe Vera is a natural ingredient known for its hydrating, soothing, and healing properties. It’s perfect for those with oily skin as it helps reduce inflammation and protect the skin from environmental stressors.

Here’s a tip – You may choose to use a facial sponge with your cleanser to wash your face. This will help to remove oil, dirt, and makeup and to stimulate your skin to give it a healthy glow.
Step 2: Deep Pore Freshener:
Follow the cleanser with this non-drying, alcohol-free freshener formulated to help balance pH, complete the cleansing process and nourish the skin. It’s so gentle it is even safe for use around the delicate eye area.
Step 3: Aloe Vera Barbadensis Jelly:
For oil-control we recommend you skip a traditional moisturizer which can be too heavy and contribute to additional oil and breakouts. Instead, L’BRI Aloe Vera Barbadensis Jelly is lightweight and penetrates quickly to calm and soothe irritated or inflamed skin while providing the little bit of moisture needed to keep your skin from becoming too dry.
When used twice daily, a L’BRI skin care Trio helps make skin healthier, softer, smoother, and more radiant. And remember, never go to bed with your makeup on! Your skin naturally heals itself while you sleep, so you’ll want to clear your face of impurities by cleaning it every night. This allows your skin to breathe and absorb moisture.
TAKING ACNE CARE UP A NOTCH
Should you choose to take your skin care to the next level, there are other effective products that can be added to the foundation of the Trio to address other skin concerns. You may consider a L’BRI Skin Care Set which includes the Trio of your choice as well as eye gel and your choice of highly effective exfoliators – plus a makeup bag and cleansing sponge.
Complete your Care Routing with Eye Repair and a Peel
Eye gel and exfoliators are two of the most popular skin care items and adding them to your Trio just makes sense!
The superior formula of the Smooth n’ Firm Eye Repair Gel helps reduce puffy eyes and dark under-eye circles by hydrating the skin and enhancing the appearance of skin elasticity and smoothness. The thinnest skin is around your eyes and this is where signs of aging are often first noticed. Using an eye treatment twice daily to hydrate the area and prevent fine lines and wrinkles can help. Those dark, puffy under eyes will be a thing of the past!
Add in the Rejuvenating Facial Peel, made with natural fruit enzymes, to dissolve dead skin cells and improve your skin’s tone, clarity, and texture and your skin will not only be clean, but it will be soft and supple as well. Using your exfoliator twice weekly is a key step in your skincare routine, it will help to remove dull skin cells and reveal glowing skin, and also allows your moisturizer and other products to penetrate deeper and work better.
You may choose the Exfoliating Face & Body Scrub instead of the Facial Peel to gently lift tired, dull surface cells and those embedded impurities from your skin. This scrub is great for those rough areas like knees and elbows and gives your skin a smooth, fresh look all over. Please note, however, that this product does contain nuts and is not recommended for acne or blemish-prone skin. Those with oily or blemish-prone skin should choose to use this as a body-only product.
Remember, when you add additional products to your 1, 2, 3 skin care formula, those additional items should be used before your Aloe Vera Barbadensis Jelly. Locking in your skin’s moisture for optimum hydration should always be the final step of your skincare routine. A simple way to remember the order of your products is to remember that when layering products, you should always apply the thinnest product first. For example, eye gel should be applied before an anti-aging serum, and moisturizer can be applied at the end.
