good luck chap

Yeah, dont seem to find any jojoba/ AHA products in singapore. I saw AHA as a listed ingredient the other day while walking around watsons/guardian and guess what cream it was?

behold, FOOT CREAM!

hahaha, and ever since ive started the regimen ive been developing a weird interest in spending alot of time in guardian/watsons trying to decipher the ingredients on the bottle :s

[qwertyuiopasd]

I found jojoba oil but its lip balm. i think they do sell jojoba oil in the face shop or body shop but it should be like over 50 bucks for a small bottle. If i see any i'll tell you

[vaguedrevival]

oh body shop! my sis works there, so i get 50% off everything hahahhaa.

Any S'poreans on Accutane? Where can I get cheap one? I got it from my GP damn exp man...sighs..

[qwertyuiopasd]

Nope, my sister was on roaccutane before tho, she got it from a doctor in upp thomson, it sells bellow 10 bucks from what she says but no idea how many you get. I don't think you can get accutane cheap tho, doctors have to prescribe you, so even if you can get it at a low price you still have to go for consultation which means $$.

Oh cool you should check it out then. My skin isn't flaking anymore so i wouldn't need jojoba oil. I'll probably try to find an AHA product for my scarring instead once my acne clears up.

thank u so much!! gonna check it out later.

[qwertyuiopasd]

Sure no problem, let us know how it goes ya.

[vaguedrevival]

finally new people i think the regimen is working wonders, usually my skin would be this gloriously clear before i wake up to see a few more pimples and i feel like cursing. hahaha.

espcially when its exam time now, stresss! yet there are no breakouts -touchwood-

im not sure but you can always visit the dermatologist at national skin center/ or any other hospital that has a dermatology section, can check online
BUT, the consultation price is

so you better goto polyclinic tell them about your acne problem and they would give this useless cream and anti biotics and usually you can ask for a referral letter so that your visit is cheaper

should be on hiatus for awhile as i mentioned exams are coming will be back after that!~

Any S'poreans on Accutane? Where can I get cheap one? I got it from my GP damn exp man...sighs..

hey i was on accutane,
i went to NSC. you can try getting a referral and going there too. but pray that you get a good doctor. some of the docs chuck medicine at you which isn't going to maintain your skin in the long run

[qwertyuiopasd]

I'll catch up with you next time then The docs will not prescribe you accutane if your acne isn't too bad tho

...Am I interrupting something here? Haha! I'm from SG too.

Trust me, ordering from Dan is quite possibly the best and cheapest thing you can do. The NOTS(Neutrogena On The Spot) gives you 0.75 ounces, I think, and that's hardly enough for what the regimen calls for. If you do some basic maths, ordering the BP from Dan(the 16 ounce one) is cheaper even with shipping cost. I actually had to do that to convince my mum to order things online. xD

If it's still too expensive, there are other Singaporeans ordering from Dan, so you can order with them to place a bulk order, which is cheaper to ship. Of course, you'll have to meet up with them face to face in order to get the products(since the post office will only deliver to one address and all)... And there's the matter of getting ripped off, so it's quite risky imo.

I was on the regimen for about half a year before I stopped. I now only need to use the BP/Salicylic Acid occasionally to keep my skin clear. After acne, you'll still have hyperpigmentation to take care of though.

The jojoba oil in Singapore is way freakin' expensive, so don't bother trying to get it. It's more often than not mixed with some other ingredients too. I haven't seen any shop selling pure jojoba oil the time I've been shopping for facial products. A salesgirl at Body Shop told me that they discontinued the jojoba oil for the aloe vera line, so meh.

[qwertyuiopasd]

Cool nah, of course you're not.
I guess, but since benzac is working well for me, i'll just stick to it atm. Very affordable too.
Hyper pigmentation is fine, it'll fade away with time, plus i'll prolly try to find an AHA product once ance clears up, so it'll help a lil. Plus i don't expect a totally clear skin, at least until i finished my service Puberty would be gone by then, and who knows? Maybe puberty is what causing my acne!

[Demosthenes]

Hi. I'm new to this site (just discovered it around today hahaha) and seeing the good news abound this site, I decide to give it a go. And I might as well since I tried nearly everything but nothing really helps me with my acne.

The problem though is getting the products. Are there any Singaporeans in here whom would do a mass order from Dan's site? I would really be indebted to you. Otherwise, I guess I just have to stick to the recommended alternatives although 13 bucks for the On the Spot Neutrogena treatment doesn't seem good :S

Cheers and good luck to everyone!

[qwertyuiopasd]

Hello I'm using Benzac AC 2.5% from watsons, its also BP. You might wanna try it out, its pretty reasonable for its price. But if you wanna find someone to mass order its fine too iz up to you.

Heyy...what is your total costs per visit to your derm? Mine is abt 250sgd per month (consultation fees + 30mg/day Accutane)

[pchic]

I am using Niks products and it cleared me up a lot! If you're looking for aha products, Niks salon has them. I bought the glycol (gycolic acid/aha) for around 60 dollars and it was a 10% one. Now I "upgraded" to 12%. It's located at midpoint orchard, opposite somerset mrt station! The toner is my favourite..it has 5% glycolic acid and 2% salicylic(bha).

[qwertyuiopasd]

Thanks pchic! will check it out sometime
