My holy grail skincare routine | how I healed my severe acne scarring, texture & hyperpigmentation

Here are my holy grail skincare products that have healed my scarring, dark spots and texture from years of hormonal cystic acne. This is how I've lightened my hyperpigmentation to even out my skin tone and achieve the look of healthy glowing skin. Open for links & timestamps! I recently fell into a youtube skincare rabbit hole and learned so much about active ingredients like arbutin, niacinamide, AHA BHA PHAs, centella extract, and SPF and how important they are if you're trying to even out your skin tone, texture, reduce redness/inflammation, and target skin issues like hyperpigmentation, acne scars, dark spots, and rough uneven texture. These are the products that I've seen make the biggest difference in my skin, and I cannot live without them. They're mostly affordable korean skincare products, so I hope this can help if you've been looking to heal your skin from severe acne scarring like me. I never had money for expensive skin treatments, laser, or facials and I think it's so important to know that there are amazing products out there that can help that don't cos hundreds of dollars.
