Hello!
I went to the doctor the other day and she prescribed me Dalacin T (I think it's called Cleocin T in the US) solution.
And I've been using tea tree oil+ spots gel+jojoba oil+ antisepctic cream for the inflamed ones for the past few weeks and didn't seem to be making THAT much progress.
So as of last night I've switched to the Dalacin T solution...and I don't know what moisturizer to use!
I was thinking I could just put on jojoba oil using a cotton pad just to keep it simple but I wear makeup so I don't know how that will work...
Please let me know if anyone has suggestions!
One more thing: I use an organic gentle cleanser and only water to wash my face in the morning.

Thank you!

Well I recently bought a new moisturizer and I was wondering if it will make my acne worse...

It's Aloe 80 Organics Liquid Moisturizer by Lily of the Desert.
It says it's excellent for use under makeup so I've been putting it on this yesterday morning.

BUT today I've realized that my face has few tiny bumps (like clogged pores??) and I think it might be because of the moisturizer...

I can't list all the ingredients but you can check it on
ingredients!


Can anyone help me decide whether I should continue using it or not??

I don't know what I should do anymore.

I really really really want to not be seen with my acne. It makes me feel hideous. I tend to overthink and my anxiety problems are taking over me.

I skipped school today because I looked at myself in the mirror this morning and I saw huge pimples that were red and inflamed. one of them looked like ready to pop but I've decided against it.

It's just my stupid stupid stupid skin that's ruining myself. my confidence.

I can't be seen without makeup and that makes me feel even worse.

I keep wanting to miss school so i don't have to see my classmates who have flawless skin.

I like them but I also hate them.

I'm not keen about the idea of going on accutane or taking antibiotics or putting benzoyl peroxide on my face just because I don't want to rely on those products forever.

Anyone else missed work or school because of acne?

Can you see my skin? With all those bumps? Well the one right above my eyebrow is starting to form a white head...just looks like a white circle with a red surrounding. I tried poking it with a needle to see if anything would come out but only clear fluid came out and I was panicking because I thought I had done a horrible thing to my skin...

Anyway what exactly should I do for those bumps? How can I get rid of them?

I'm going with a holistic method at the moment (only cleansing at night and using tea tree oil+jojba oil and on spots I use a mild antiseptic cream) and I'm not sure if it's working out because I keep on getting pimples everywhere.

Hi...

I really thought my skin was improving but then all of a sudden
I get really big red bumps on my forehead and between my eyebrows.

What I did different from before and now ...
I didn't put on moisturizer before I put on makeup
I've been putting too much anti-bacterial cream. (might have aggravated my pimples)
drank little bit of beer and ate more meat than usual.

I hate it because it's halloween this friday and I wanted to look my best but with these
pimples. what am I to do??
