clear face gel - #15826

Harsh

I am super confused and kind of worried about my skin lately. For the past month, I’ve been trying to use this new clear face gel that I thought would help with my breakouts. I’ve always had some acne, but this gel was suppose to be good for it. At first, my skin felt okay, but after a week I started noticing really dry patches and my breakouts didn't really improve. I thought maybe it needed some time, ya know? But now it's been almost four weeks, and my face is more irritated than ever! I don’t know if I’m allergic to this clear face gel or if it just isn’t working for me at all. I mean, is it normal for a product to make things worse like this? I also read about how some clear face gels can clog pores instead of clearing them out. Do you think I should stop using it right away? Or maybe try something different like a moisturizer with it? I just feel lost! Like, using this clear face gel was suppose to be a game changer for me, but now I don’t know what to do. Has anyone else experienced this kind of reaction? What would you recommend?
