Hey,im new..

I am having trouble and no luck with burts bees,been 3 months too. I tried the acne solutions products and no luck,and my best friend swore by the tomato soap,so now I am using the garden tomato soap,garden tomato toner,acne spot on treatment,radiance day creme moisturizer,and the herbal blemish stick.

This is my routine..

Wake up and before work get a shower and scrub my face pretty hard with the tomato soap,and then rinse it off,get out of shower and let face dry,and then put on the moisturizer and put the spot on treatment stuff on few spots and head to work. Other day i do all of the above except i do the herbal blemish stick instead of spot on. At night i do the same,though not every night. Some days i just leave it at the moisturizer though,and dont do anything after. I just can't decide what is right because of my luck.

I have acne all over my face in different spots,and it sucks but an area that really bugs me is my whole area below my lips and down. That whole chin area. It has been enflammed for about 2 months. Constantly red and hardly any skin color. Lots of cracks and lines in skin and dry skin,and just raw looking. As well as pimples that are like very small white spots and under skin. It is SO Annoying,it wont heal and get better,and ithink it has something to do with product overload..

Any help would be appreciated! thanks..

Do you have a list of the ingredients? Anything like castor oil, lanolin or anything like that? That is oil and will break me out just looking at it. Cetaphil cleanser has castor oil in it too. And even if it says 99% oil free, imagine 99 drops of water, and 1 drop of oil applied to your face. It will still be oily. No good. Clogs pores. Doesn't allow your pores to breathe

wow,yes. the herbal blemish stick has 3-4 different oils. Might be dropping that one. I still have read too maeilny good reviews of the tomato soap,and even my best friend..cured his... to stop it. Maybe i will just stick with that and the lotion. My face area below mouth and chin area is still disturbed. Wash my face and then pot the lotion on ,and i looks fine,then once i talk a lot to someone or eat something,move my mouth a bit,and it gets flaky again. annoyinggggg. I also keep getting these like under skin almost white dots all over this area,and they harder to pop..

Just because something is labeled "organic" or "all natural", does not make it any better for your skin. Burt's Bees' products are filled with irritating "natural" plant oils and other ingredients that dry and irritate your skin more so than synthetic ingredients.

I'm new here too and my name is kiesh, burts bees is not good for you stop using all of those products and use shea butter soap pure shea butter no additives if u have blemishes use the shea butter soap by halal it is green with raspberry extract. I have had acne since 12 and I will be 21 this year this is the clearest my skin has ever been I feel confident it will work for you. Pure shea butter no additives it may have a fragrance to it but no other additives.

What kinda brand has shea butter with no additivies? What about a moisturizer? Wonder if they carry it at walmart. Today i picked up alba face cleanser and oil-free moisturizer. Trying that..
