Sunday Riley?

Has anyone had a success or failure dealing with cystic and hormonal acne using Sunday Riley products, like the UFO or sulfur masks?

RE: Sunday Riley?

I had acne as a teenager.. it got better as an adult, and then after I had my son it got really bad, cystic and hormonal acne. So over time I have tried everything under the sun. UFO oil and Saturn mask has literally changed my life. I now have skin I never dreamed of having because of those products. Amazing, I can't rave enough. Side note: try evening primrose oil supplements.. you can get them in a grocery store for fairly cheap and help regulate hormones and help with acne! 🙂

Re: Sunday Riley?

I've been using all three products in the Space Race set and love them. In a week, I've noticed a difference in my face. I also am using the Power Couple set. I don't typically have acne, but over the last month or two, I've had constant acne due to extreme stress and hormonal changes. These products have really helped me...even after the first use. 

RE: Sunday Riley?

Yes I Experience the same thing other then I was using the power couple kit by Sunday Riley and the first couple weeks I’ve experienced break outs while using this I almost wanted to take it back but this is like me 3 and a half week and my skin starting to look a little better . So It might be one of those products that works better over time instead of an Instant results .Gud luck tho

Re: Sunday Riley?

I just started using the UFO and, I don't think I can give a good enough review on it as yet, but I really do like it so far. I also get cystic and hormonal acne often and at the first sight of this nuscence I use drying lotion. I've been using the Mario Badescu one, but after two years it is coming to an end. I'm going to try the Kate Somerville one just to try something new and it has amazing reviews. 

I have had AMAZING results however with the Sunday Riley All in One Lactic Acid treatment, only because it handles my acne, hyper pigmentation and gives me a pretty nice glow in the morning. 

I'd recommend that you wash your face really well (no dead skin left behind). Then get you a good neutralizing toner like Witch Hazel (Dickerson & Pixi are my faves) Then go in with the lactic acid from Sunday Riley. Next, go in and spot treat the cystic acne (at the first sign for best results). Then, when the drying lotion is fully dry, place a piece of scotch tape over it to keep it from flaking off (Yes, scotch tape. I'm so serious) Once all your tape is on, go a head and go over your face with the UFO oil, let your skin absorb and follow with a moisturizer. Finally....water and bed. 

I promise you'll love the results. And, I have no clue why the tape works, I just know it does and at the first sight, feel or tingle of cystic acne, that night I have drying lotion and tape on it. I don't even wait for it to show at the surface. I hope you try and good luck! 

RE: Sunday Riley?

I went in last weekend, to get makeup done for a wedding and spoke to my makeup artist about my skin. I told her it was absolutely crazy currently and couldn't decide if it was dry or oily and was full of blemishes. She hooked me up with samples, and told me the Sunday Riley Sulfur mask was definitely something I needed to try. Let me just say, I have have acne just below/around the apple of my cheek, and on my chin for over a year now, and have tried SO many things to get rid of it, including prescription medication. I used this mask all over one time, and area treated 2 other times and the area on my face that has been so difficult to clear up, looks SO much better, and is almost clear!!!! I definitely recommend trying it out!! It's amazing!!! I am buying the Sunday Riley acne kit that comes with the mask, a toner and the UFO oil during the sale!

Re: RE: Sunday Riley?

Isn't the Space Race set the BEST?! I love it too!!!! If you haven't tried the Power Couple, that's a wonderful set of products, as well. I'm getting the full sizes of the Space Race set...already went back and got full sizes of the Power Couple products!
