I think my Clarisonic and my Vitamin C Serum might sorta be canceling each other out.

A few EDS members expressed concerns that C serums gave them really obvious blackheads, in weird places like their cheeks. And I believe the theory here is that vitamin C oxidizes the gunk in your pores, so it makes it all the more obvious.

And, of course, the theory behind the Clarisonic is that it helps *remove* the gunk from your pores. (Amongst other things.) I think it helps a little, with this and with maintaining a smoother and evener complexion. But I’ve always been of the philosophy that some people just get blackheads, and some don’t, and there’s very little you can do to change that.

Anyway, I’m going to bail on using C-Serum after I finish up this bottle of PSF, and see if my blackheads don’t improve a bit more. At $48 a bottle, I don’t think I can justify the “maybe” results anyway!
