Week 10: Banish Acne Scars

Welcome back lovely people!
To those of you who are just tuning in for the first time, welcome to my Skin's Journey!  When I say "my" I mean me, Jessica Glynn!  I am a '95 baby currently in university and bloggin' on my spare time (aka when I get tired of doing school work, just don't tell my professors).  
And to those of you who have been following my Journey... 
WELCOME TO WEEK 10!  
We made it!
When I first started this journey I had no idea what to expect from the Banish Acne Scars system.  I must've researched the system for about 3 weeks, and eventually I just bit the bullet and ordered it!  I promised myself and you guys that I would document the entire journey every step of the way and that is what I have done.  We are now here at the 10th week (which is the final week with my current roller) and I have to say the results are pretty sweet!  I will have another YouTube video posted on my channel demonstrating my last session and talking about my overall thoughts of the product!  But for now, enjoy the before and after pictures!!

Zoomed Out Before & After Pictures
The photos on the left side were taken 11/12 weeks ago before I started the Banish Acne Scars system.  As you can see when comparing left to right, majority of my results affected my cheek area and a few minor areas around my forehead and chin.  Of course my whole face isn't scar free, but that is a-okay to me!  I've made really great improvements all thanks to the Banish Acne Scars system.
 
 
Zoomed In Before & After Pictures
These pictures really are living proof that the Banish Acne Scars system really does work.  Again as I have mentioned in other posts, I do not retouch/photoshop any of my pictures so the results are right there on your screens.  Pretty neat to see the difference 10 weeks of using the Banish Acne Scars roller and serum can make, eh?
 
 
 

Products I've Been Using In Conjunction With Banish
Over the past 10 weeks I haven't just been using the Banish Acne Scars system, I have also been using other products geared towards fading dark spots.  Twp products in particular that have been using have been from the Palmer's line.  On Palmer's website their mission statement reads, "Palmer's uses only the finest ingredients to provide consumers the highest quality formulas at affordable prices. All of our products are hand crafted based on Palmer's long standing heritage and experience in offering superior formulations that deliver results. This is why Palmer's promise to its consumers has always been an unconditional guarantee of quality."  

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Night Fade Treatment combines 2% hydroquinone, the most effect topical skin lightening agent available, with our Tone Enhancing Complex to fade dark spots, marks and discoloration while peptides and richly moisturizing cocoa butter actively boost moisture levels, revitalize and help firm skin so you wake up with a brighter, younger-looking complexion.  I usually apply this at night as my moisturizer for the evening and although the smell is a little strong, I don't seem to mind it (although I have heard that a lot of people cannot stand the smell of it).  It settles into the skin in seconds and I find it leaves the skin with a tacky, matte feel which doesn't bother me because I'm just going to bed with it on.

Overall, I am very pleased with the last 10 weeks using the Banish Acne Scars system.  As you can see in the many before and after photos that I have included in this post and in my other posts from the previous weeks, the products DO work.  I am very interested to see what another 10 weeks will look like since you are only advised to use a roller for 8-10 times.  I received a second M roller in the mail and will be continuing another 1o weeks with the new roller.  I hope you have enjoyed tuning in and reading through the last 10 weeks of my Skin's Journey and hope that you continue to follow my next 10 weeks.
