Acne is Gone but I Still Have Dark Spots? Help!

Thanks to Rodan + Fields for sponsoring this post.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I’ve struggled with breakouts and cystic acne for so long, I have forgotten exactly when it started.  After countless years and thousands of dollars I have found a system and routine with products that work for my skin (of course this changes from time to time dependent on life factors, weather, etc.).  And my cystic acne finally subsided!  But wait… Why does it look like I still have a face full of acne? These spots are flat!  So, it’s not an active breakout.  What is this discoloration?  Why does it look like I am still struggling with acne when I’m not? WHAT ARE THESE SPOTS?!

It's 8:45 am & your baby is having a meltdown so you've only brushed your teeth (or you know, you slept in...oh the good ol' days).  But then your calendar reminder goes off and you have a Zoom meeting in 15 mins.  So you hand your baby off to dad, throw on a cute top and pull your hair back and you only have 5 mins left - HELP!  Mascara or Contour? Foundation and Concealer?  Don't worry, I've got you...
