I'm Irish, German and French Canadian. Somehow, that combination of ancestry has led me to one certain thing: blemishes.

Over the years I've tried plenty of remedies: toothpaste, acne medicine, acne face wash, strident pads, etc. But two years ago my friend pulled a tube of Philosphy's Clear Days Ahead out of her purse while we sat at the Baltimore Airport.

It literally changed my life.

This product trumps them all. As soon as I feel a zit coming along, I apply a small layer of this gel-like concoction and voila! Within about two days my blemishes are dried up.

You can buy it at Sephora or on Amazon. It costs $20, but one small tube will last you several months. Hope it helps. xox

By the way, this post was not sponsored by Philosophy. I just feel really strongly about this product!
