Drinking urine is just one huge placebo. The more atypical the placebo, the more ostensibly effective it's gonna be. In a couple of weeks the benefits will subside and you'll have to find another miracle cure. And so what if the practice has been done since the Edo period or the Passover? So has bloodletting and acupuncture. Results from topical urea should also be mild at best, possibly as effective as salicylic acid.

I'd like to see ONE study, double-blind or otherwise, that shows drinking urine has any beneficial effect.

Well, here you go then .. I'm not sure if it's double-blind, it's extremely long and detailed but I think the gist of it was that urine did have a beneficial effect. But why don't you look for this stuff yourself?

Anyway, I just tried it. I went in a little cup and used a q-tip to apply it only to my spots. I'm going to leave it on for 30 minutes then wash and shower as usual. I will post results in a few days or as soon as I see any changes in my complexion. :]

Well, so far so good. I haven't broken out any from it. It's still kind of weird to put on my face because it's very strong (I don't drink enough water, and no, that's not why I have acne, I used to drink plenty and still had problems). Anyway, I have noticed that when I put it on a whitehead it tends to go down, and the redness I had on some of my spots has started going away. I don't want to jinx it though. I know it's not because of my benzoyl peroxide because that hasn't been working very well lately. D:

But yeah. Too soon to say anything for sure yet. But I've got a good feeling about this. :]

I have done it 2 nights in a row. Last night I did a few spots and saw the inflamation go down. Tonight I did my jaw line where most of the problem is and again inflamation was gone. I drink a good amount of water so it did not stink. I kept it on for 45 min and then washed it off.

I'm sorry but that's beyond disgusting. How low can you possibly get to piss into a cup and apply it to your face? And drinking your own piss? What the hell.

It's acne people, it's not the end of your lives. You don't need to drink piss and make yourself piss masks.

What if all the sudden there was study's done to prove that shit cures acne, would you smother your face with it? Gah.

Putting piss on your face is not necessary, I doubt, if you're in a relationship, that you'd want to wake up with piss on your face next to your significant other.

Thanks for your opinion, really opened my eyes!

Actually urine does help acne. I have been only using it for 3 days and it actaully helped alot.

I know it seems gross but i got to the point that i was willing to do w.e for clear skin.

It does not give you a rash or anything. I see no side effects. It seems gross when u first do it but after its not so bad.

If you guys want to cure acne.

The most none gross natural way is to Squeeze a lemon and put the juice on ur face. Your acne will start to improve the next day. Ive tried it and it really works. I stopped using it cuz it Stings and Itches REALLY bad. Dont go outside with the lemon on you or you will get a severe sunburn.

Also try using the product Benzyol Peroxide ( how ever u spell that) that also helps alot.


And for u idiots who are saying " EW YOU GUYS DRANK YOUR PISS or WHY WOULD U DRINK YOUR PISS"? You dont drink it you apply it to ur face. If u want to try it when u go to the bathroom get some toilet paper fold it so its thicker urinate on it and then just wipe it over ur face quickly.

First of all, you could be a little more open-minded.

Urine is a sterile product. Once it is absorbed into the skin, it has no odor.

Many high-end skincare products actually contain Urea, which is an ingredient found in urine.

Urine has been used as a skincare product for thousands of years.

Furthermore, people have been drinking urine for the health benefits for just as long.

UT works to treat acne without damaging the skin. Doesn't this make more sense than stripping your skin of its natural oils?

I don't mean in any way to single out the user that typed that message, but I just needed an example quote to start off with.

People here are trying to have an intelligent, productive conversation about a controversial topic. We all share a common problem, so let's work WITH each other. Programmed sheep unwilling to open your mind a crack, please keep your ignorant remarks to yourselves, or ask legitimate questions and learn from what you take in. Although...

It's pointless to argue with a certain type of people. They were essentially made to be that way, possessing no skill to critically analyze and problem solve without an establishment approved manual being read to them.

On another topic, to all who have contributed to the conversation constructively, kudos. If it were not for these threads, I may never have came across this method, and would still be plagued with cystic acne.

For the ones I criticized, what is your real problem ? Afraid of being made fun of ? Afraid of diseases from your own body (SOMEHOW) ? Angry that others have tried it, and succeed while you "just can't bring yourself to break an arbitrary code ? Just try it out, if all else fails. Why not ?

That one line though, "Would you put shit on your face if it cured acne ? " Was that a rhetorical question, or are you really that thickheaded ?

I probably come across as a real asshole, forcing myself into these threads, typing up a storm. I just get excited.

[Warrior of Acne]

I have used it and I wanted it to work but it did not to me. For a lot of people it seems to work though.

[Mr. Jones]

The worst part about acne is that it is a symptom of something else and has so many different causes, factors being both generalized and specific to the person. Dairy, Wheat, Sexual Activity, Dehydration, seem to be my own main triggers.

In the midst of a break-out induced "psychosis", I even considered cutting apart all the flesh on my face, so that I would stop having clear-intervals leading to false hope, and just accept a "ravaged face" once and for all. Thinking back, I see one more example of Acne being a very serious condition, at least within my biology-psychology. :s.....

I noticed that when leaving sweaty hair across my forehead for long enough to relax upon arriving home, that I received two small pimples, after a tell-tale warning itch. Focus. Internal health, external hygiene, environmental factors, UT, diet..... Still a battle, but optimistic one for once.

Warrior, When you tried UT, what was your experience like ? I'm interested in knowing more about when it does not work. The acne research was always geared towards me getting clear skin, but now that I've had it for this long, I'd love to discover and unlock the secrets behind eliminating this problem for others.

Regular medicine seems to put people through "Acne is on your face, it's bacteria and oil. Soap and harsh topicals are the answer. Didn't work ? Take anti-biotics. Still have acne ? Shit on your liver and take Accutane, that is the real cure.... Still have acne ? Have you tried Topicals ?"

I think each person needs a specific and individual "prescription plan" of combined (Dietary, Hygienic, Habitual, Environmental, Allergen) changes, based on the individuals specific biological differences. Full allergen test, full blood work, nutritional supplements to treat deficiencies, diet tailored to the person's needs, change of habits such as sleeping on a dirty pillowcase.... A complete assessment to determine why they specifically break out.

It's usually 5 minutes of cutting you off in speech, and giving you something that will work temporarily, not work, or cause a reaction. I'm biased by bad experiences.

[anonymou5]

Oh my goodnes, what a funny thread... Hey have'nt you heard people that menstruation is also good for acne...

These are pimple myth's, why is'nt there a medicine called, AcUrine... If there was one, then yay... It supports the argument but sadly no medical lab would make a medicine out of urine knowing that sodium chloride found in the urea can exarcebate the skin condition... Not unless your skin is really really thick and could widthstand any form of physical torture... Like putting acid on your face maybe... Hey, not a bad idea...

If urine was a miracle cure as it is touted, pharmaceutical corporations would NEVER make a drug out of it, because people don't need to pay for their own urine. They're motivated only by profit.

pee in a bush everyday and watch it die.

I pissed on my weed plants multiple times when I forgot to bring water the spot. They ended up growing almost 6 feet tall, and the buds were straight dank.

[JohntheBaptist]

Haha, it's so funny when people actually believe the urine thing. That remody is so false

[anonymou5]

This thread should be closed. It is a complete embarrasment to this whole community. Many of us have been around here for awhile and through the hard work of some of our members original discoveries into the fight against acne have been made. B5 took off because of messageboards as has the link with milk, iodine, and zinc even though the link between diet and acne is dismissed by most dermatologists. I fear now that one post may destroy any progress that was made. You sick freaks are going to ruin it for all the rest of us relatively normal ones and confirm many of the accusations made by our detractors that we are loonies.

I really dont care if urine cures acne. It is a waste product I am not going to touch it and put it on my face or drink it. That is simply beyond what I find acceptable behavior for adults. Lets just take this one step farther and hypothetically say rubbing poop on your face clears acne. Do you honestly believe it is ever OK for a person to lay a turd and start rubbing it on their skin? What about semen? Gypsy tears?

I really cant believe a moderator would support such drivel. This has always been such a great community. What a shame to see it go down the toilet.

Personally, I've found this thread quite interesting, as have many others. No, I haven't tried it, but I'm not going to be an ignorant fool and attempt to stifle peoples' efforts. Making comments such as this is simply beyond what I find acceptable behavior for adults.

[belle_papillon]

I waited until I was so desperate that I was willing to try anything. All I can say is that I wish I had tried it sooner!!!! It's been three weeks now, and I still get some zits, but they're smaller and clear up faster. I think the best part is how supple my skin has become. And it's not as dried out as it was before, so my make-up goes on smoother. When I can, I will put application after application on to get the most out of the treatment.

I honestly wish that I had tried this sooner, because the confidence of having a beautiful complexion far outweighs the strangeness of putting urine on my face (something that bugs me less each day my skin improves!).

I know it's unconventional, but try it!

[rareform]

lol i just tried to do a shot of urine and threw up all over my bathroom

[Alfred Amarth]

Yo, this is my first post on these forums, but I'm seriously going to give this a shot.

College just started and my skin looks soooo bad. I was on antibiotics since the start of the year, but it seems like they're just not working anymore.

I've got Regimen products sitting in my closet and I was thinking about hitting my face up with those, but I think I'll try this first. Seeing as how I've got nothing to lose (my face is as bad as it's ever been), and seeing as how I probably won't be clear until 2-3 months on the Regimen (if at all), I figure I might as well experiment a little.

So here's the deal... I'm gonna start slathering piss all over my face, morning and evening. I'm also going to chug it (if there's enough left over after I'm done painting my visage).

If it works, great. If not, well, I guess I'm going on the Regimen.
