oh hair...

ok well i need help deciding on a new haircut/style. The last year or so i havent really cared about my haircut, as ive been more worried about my face, but since im getting ontop of acne i think its time i diversified Ive got pretty thick hair and dont really want to colour it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

niacin no-flush log (niacinamide)

Alrighty well im sam, 17 and live in victoria, australia. Ive had acne for about 2 years now and its at what i would call a mild stage now but with alot of red marks to complement it nicely.
My current regime consists of

Morning:
wash with Phisohex face wash
25mg of zinc
450mg of pantethine
500mg Niacinamide

Night:
450mg of pantethine
25mg of zinc
wash with Phisohex anti bacterial wash
wash with Alpha-H triple action cleanser
apply cream consisting of: 2% salicylic acid, 30% sulphur, in aqueous cream

The cream is prescribed by my derm and i leave it on over night. It smells horrible but showering in the morning fixes that. I use phisohex in the morning as the same derm told me it leaves an micro bacterial layer which stops bacteria getting to the skin. The cleanser is very mild, with no alcohol products. It includes aloe vera and is designed to disturb the acid mantle as little as possible.

I started this log because ive started taking niacin, and thought it would be appropriate

Ive been taking zinc for about a week and a half and it has worked wonders, so far all my pimples haven't been bad, and have been leaving incredibly fast. Also my skin feels amazing smooth and luxurious

I started taking the pantethine 3 days ago, and went headlong in the 900mg dose. I started taking pantethine because black heads and clogged pores are a real problem to me, and ill often see a clogged pore turn into a pimple within a few days. Pantethine helps create? cozyme-A in the stomach which in turn breaks down fats and oils, so my body wont have the need to expel it through my sebum glands, or send it facewards.

Also ive started jogging/walking (mainly walking at this point), yoga and cardivascular excersises (such as chin ups and push ups) to generally make me healthier and in turn maybe improve my acne/self confidence.

The last things i have changed are my sleeping habits (getting to bed 1, 1/2 hours earlier) drinking plenty of water a day and drinking atleast one small pot of green tea a day. Hopefully all this combined will help me stop acne in its tracks, so that i dont feel compelled to go on roaccutane.

Day 3
sorry i missed taking pictures on the first day, but nothing that much has changed unless your right next to me. Zinc has been removing acne's presence bit by bit, and the pimples are much smaller than they were a few days ago. Cant notice any change in oil production but i hope to within the next few days. If anyone knows how long the recommended stay on pantethine is id like to know ill post back in a few days
