Having been asked by a quite a few readers on twitter and instagram how I am getting on with my skin care regime I thought I should update you that it’s going great. A fortnight ago I posted about Heal Gel, a skin repair gel which has been used my medical professionals to help reduce inflammation of the skin, whilst repairing dark scars left after spots and scars in dark skin known as keloid scars. so far the results are as I hoped.

I decided to have a skin intervention having seen pictures of my less than healthy looking skin from the Afro Hair & Beauty show, and I’m pleased to say that since then things are looking significantly better wouldn’t you agree?

I should note that I have not been using Heal Gel in isolation. I have been cleansing with Clean & Clear blackhead cleanser and moisturising with a small amount of aqueous cream. However, I had already been using Clean & Clear and aqueous cream prior to the Afro Hair & Beauty show and not did not start seeing an improvement until I started using Heal Gel.

I am not a product junkie and always endeavour to find a solution for any skin or well being related problems by first looking at my lifestyle before considering any chemical solution. So in addition to using the product I have made a significant effort to do the following.
-
1) Increase the proportion vegetables and fish in my diet to get in more antioxidants and essential oils
2) Kept to a consistent cleansing and application routine
3) increased physical out door activities to get more fresh air and perpetrate in order to open up my pours
4) Select hairstyles that keep my hair away from my face and sensitive areas as continuous contact with hair grease can often be a catalyst for troubled skin.

Therefore I would say for anyone who feels they have exhausted their options trying to reduce inflammation on their skin or repair scared skin from past episodes, I recommend Heal Gel. I have had a few people expressing reservations about the price v.s quantity, but I have been using a small amount twice a day for two weeks and I am barely a fifth through the glass tub. So I am confident that not only it works but will last me a reasonable while to. Personally I would prefer to pay £35 and call it day, rather than spending £10 or so on numerous products which are uniformally ineffective.
