How this flower child fell head-over-heels for the ultimate high-tech acne treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Problem Skin: A Real Problem<\/b><\/h2>\n

During my adolescent years, I was lucky enough to stay relatively free of acne and bad breakouts. But by the time I hit my 20s, <\/span>hormonal acne<\/span><\/a> reared its ugly head. I was trying my best to adult, but my sebaceous glands had written \u2018teenager\u2019 in pimples across my chin. Going on hormonal birth control to level things out just didn\u2019t vibe with me, so I began my quest to find the <\/span>best acne treatment<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019m the kind of hippie who buys aluminum-free deodorant and uses <\/span>apple cider vinegar for basically everything<\/span><\/a>, so I was instantly drawn to the <\/span>plethora of natural acne remedies<\/span><\/a> out there. I tried <\/span>all<\/span><\/i> the oils – jojoba oil<\/a>, coconut oil<\/a>, tea tree oil – and they were great for hydrating, but they did nothing to get my sebum production under control. So, I adopted a <\/span>skin-friendly diet<\/span><\/a> – save for the occasional pizza binge – and started taking my multivitamins like a grown-ass woman. While my efforts were making a difference, I still couldn\u2019t completely get rid of acne breakouts.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Then, I was handed an <\/span>ESPADA<\/span><\/a> and saw the light: the blue light.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What is ESPADA?<\/b><\/h2>\n

A zit-zapping, skin-clearing, life-changing blue light acne treatment. <\/b>There\u2019s no other acne-fighting device like this one. It blasts 415 nm blue light – the same strength used by dermatologists for in-office phototherapy – deep into your pores to kill acne-causing bacteria and <\/span>reduce sebum levels<\/span><\/a>. Combined with FOREO\u2019s unique T-Sonic pulsations<\/a>, the laser light is even more powerful. ESPADA\u2019s antibacterial silicone surface keeps bacteria from spreading around and it\u2019s softer than my cat, Mr. Pickles, the fluffiest kitty who ever lived.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Up Close & Personal<\/b><\/h2>\n

When I first saw <\/span>ESPADA<\/span><\/a>, I was skeptical. What could this little flashlight do for my <\/span>pimples, zits<\/span><\/a> and acne scars<\/a>? But after the very first <\/span>30-second treatment<\/b>, I saw a visible difference in the redness and swelling on my face. <\/span>Breakouts disappeared overnight<\/span><\/a> without popping anything, and the texture of my skin was perfected. Plus, ESPADA regulates sebum levels so my complexion has STAYED clear, y\u2019all.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

How to Use ESPADA<\/b><\/h2>\n

High-tech doesn\u2019t always have to mean hard to use. All you need to do is press the center button and point it at your pimples. Then, kick back and plot to end climate change – or whatever your side hustle may be.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It has <\/span>literal crosshairs<\/b> to target the exact spot you need to treat, and the blue light activates when it touches your skin. Hold it on your zits until you feel the <\/span>automatic timer<\/b> pulse, then you can repeat on the same spot or move it to another breakout.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I love that ESPADA<\/a> uses light to treat acne-prone skin; it doesn\u2019t get more natural than that. But most of all, I love it because it works<\/a>! I\u2019ve got my confidence back and my acne under control thanks to ESPADA.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Where to Find ESPADA<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This blue-light miracle-worker is now available at Sephora<\/a>, so\u00a0you can pick one up\u00a0and start blasting blemishes right away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
