New products

So due to wonderful economic times I lost my job recently and have had to watch the pennies so I found I could no longer justify spending my money on nice Clinique products that had always been great for my skin.

I read up on moisturisers and bought an Olay Complete Care and intially stole some Boots cucumber face wipes from my mums bathroom.

And do you know what? these products have been fab!!! My skin is glowing!! Still have a few spots, (currently 5) but overall my skin is looking soooo much better!!

I couldnt believe it, Ive been afraid to change my routine for about 4 years and its worked out great!

Anyone else out there been afraid to change and yet it worked well for them??!!

spots on legs!

Ok Im getting acne on my legs. Just the below the knee to heel areas of em. Not many either but enough to annoy me. I shave my legs because Im in shorts nearly three times a week and my hair grows fast so needs the constant trimming. (eww thats kinda nasty) Also mucho sensitive skin, nearly anything will cause a rash, tres annoying.

Now Id dont often show my legs off because I do a lot of rock climbing so there tends to be a lot of bruises. but between the bruises and the spots I have the most unattractive pair of legs going. I wash with Sanex Etra Sensitive shower cream because everything else irritates my skin. I use aloe vera as a body lotion.

I use a Clinique anti bacterial soap from their Anti Blemish/Acne Solutions range for my face but dont really wanna put the same soap on my legs... seems nasty.


Any suggestions?

A spot on my mole

well yea, I gots this lil mole on my cheek. Its not actually that gross but it appears to be growing, and this morning there was a nice pus filled spot in it. It burst (I didnt pop it, was scared to) and it really hurt.

Should I be worried about this, is a spot on a mole wierd or just more acne fun?

Need some emergency action here

Im in the middle of Uni finals at mo so apart from being stressed to the gills there's also been an uptake in my coffee drinking. I kicked the coffee habit before because my skin doesnt like it but study needs come first at mo


So Im breaking out and I want some strong method of attack on it. Please dont say kick the coffee I will in two weeks when these are over but for now...please someon suggest something so I dont take to scrubbing my face raw in desperation!!

will I get another IB?

so yea thats pretty much it. I was using isotrexin gel and it worked brilliantly and so when I cleared I thought no need for this anymore, I stayed clear until I changed my moisturiser... now Im breaking out again and I cant afford my old moisturiser (used to buy it duty free)
So I thought Id just start using the isotrexin again but will I get another IB? really really dont want that!! not again!!

any thoughts?
