Although Alix Earle is now known for her “Get Ready With Me” videos and Miami glam, she actually gained her following by being real and open about her acne struggles. It’s refreshing to see someone as beautiful as her take TikTok’s beauty filter off and show her acne progress. Now that Earle is in a better place with her skin, she’s giving followers a peek into her skincare routine and how she manages post-breakout marks and redness, we well as preps her skin for makeup.
The most important thing, and we think Earle would agree, is to see a dermatologist if you have any skincare concerns outside of the occasional pimple. Earle’s doctor put her on Accutane three times and it worked really well at clearing up her severe acne. But the retinoid medication is very potent and not for everyone. Earle is honest about the side effects, like dry skin and lips, nose bleeds, and mood changes. (These are her experiences. There are others.) You’re also not supposed to drink alcohol on the medication.
Lately, Earle’s skin has been clearer than ever so she’s trying to stick with a skincare routine that works for her. Below are her current favorites, which just might work for you, too.
