You came to the RIGHT person BABY 👏👏👏. This is gonna sound abit preachy but I can't praise it ENOUGH. I just know you're gorg too angel 😚x, the world just HAS to nerf us for no reason😭.

Here's How I Got Rid of My Skin Bumps in a Month (No Gatekeeping, Just the Real Routine. WITH PROOF!!!)

You're curious or in need? I got you, no fluff, no 10-step K-beauty marketing fantasy or olive young code to share, just what actually worked for my skin. I struggled with tiny, annoying texture and bumps that refused to go away until I got serious about my routine. Here's exactly what I did and why it worked.

My Routine:

Step 1: Cleanser

CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser

This cleanser is packed with salicylic acid (BHA), which gently exfoliates while cleansing. Wash your face with water first, foam a bit in your clean palms, then massage wash into your skin for 2mins. No stripping, not too much drama, as it should. Just gets in there and preps your skin to absorb what’s next.

Step 2: Skin Booster

Cosrx 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum

I used this right after cleansing to help support my skin barrier and texture. Peptides are like your skin’s support system, they help with firmness, healing and extra absorption of serums after it. I let this dry down before moving to the main event.

Step 3: The Game-Changer

Garnier SkinActive AHA+BHA+Charcoal Anti-Blemish Serum

Listen to me clearly: this serum is the star. AHA exfoliates the surface. BHA goes deeper into the pores. Charcoal detoxes. Niacinamide calms the whole thing down. I started with it every other day (about 4x a week for week one), just to test how my skin would react. No burning, no irritation, I could already feel smoothness beginning to creep in. From week two, I used it daily. By week four? The bumps were GONE, they did not BS with that in the promo.

Optional Add-In:

Cosrx Hyaluronic Acid Serum

I used this only when I felt dry. It’s great, but honestly? The Garnier serum was the heavy-lifter.

Why It Worked (The real science according to my research):

Exfoliation was key. Most textured bumps are clogged pores, dead skin, oil, debris. AHA and BHA exfoliants remove that without over-scrubbing. Although I did use a rough face towel like once a week with the cleanser 🫣.

Consistency did most of the work. This wasn’t a one-and-done miracle. I showed up for my skin and it showed out for me.

Testing slowly helped prevent reactions. I gave my skin time to adjust.

Here's my proof to show I'm NOT making shit up:

Extra Tips I Searched:

Don’t skip moisturizer. Even if you're oily. These ingredients can dry you out.

Use SPF during the day. AHAs and BHAs make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Don’t undo your progress. I used a sunscreen with vitamin C to help brighten at the same time.

Give it 4 weeks minimum. Skin cycles take time. Don't expect overnight results.

This routine isn’t about perfection. It’s about tuning in, being gentle but consistent (tbh I was impatient but I pulled thru it😮‍💨) and letting active ingredients do what they were made to do. The Garnier serum? She’s the girl she thinks she is. Budget-friendly, effective, and no BS. LIKE FOR REAL.

If you're dealing with those stubborn bumps and want a routine that works without overwhelming your life or wallet, try this puhleaseeeeee. Let your skin breathe. Let it glowwwwww!!!!
