Old School Noxzema still relevant??? PART 2

Sooo.... its been about a week of using noxzema as an overnight face mask, and while I will say its a great face cleaner for the money, I won't say its a miracle worker.

I put a good layer of it one every night and washed it off in the shower in the morning. It dried in about 20 minutes into an barley there film, but I plunged on and went to bed.

When I washed it off in the morning it lathered up like facewash no problem, which was pretty amazing. So i gave my face a little light rub down with my wash cloth as I cleaned it off.

RESULTS FOR MY SKIN: same as any other face regimen/face wash

I still have some acne, I still have spots of combination oily and dry. I will say my face feels smoother in general though, I am sure thats due to the eucalyptus oil in the noxzema eating up those dead skin cells.

I will continue to use the tub because hell, I paid 6$ for it, and I'm no waster.

Will I invest in another tub? probably not, unless it makes this big turn around in my skin as I continue to use it, which if it does I will be updating.

OLD SCHOOL STILL RELEVANT: well I haven't completely given up hope that old school remedies aren't relevant today. But I am still on the search for a good face wash whether old or new to deal with my combo mild/moderate acne skin. I don't think thats so much to ask???!!!

Old School Noxzema still relevant???

So as I struggle with my on again off again smooth acne free face, I started thinking..... There are so many women out there much older then me who have been dealing with this forever and some of them look amazing. So what't their secret? well then it hit me, I need to find a product thats been around for forever tried, tested, and proved.

So I peruse the aisles and something in a blue tub starts screaming my name NOXZEMA, its been around for forever and I know many women swear by it. I remember a long lost aunt wearing it at night when she went to bed.

So if it has been on the market for so long it can't be all bad right???
well I'm going to give it a shot and see how things go. Soooooo here I am my first night wearing my noxzema mask and I will keep you all updated on my progress.

So we have something to compare too, I have mild to moderate acne with some dark marks and combination skin. I also have dermatitis along my hair line, in my eyebrows, and along the sides of my nose.

My fingers are certainly crossed that this turns out to be the best decision I should have made ages ago......
