I'm a 22 year old, red head with fair skin. I drink alcohol 2-3 times a week, and try to drink a lot of water throughout the day. My current acne regime is to cleanse with BP, apply witchhazel and then apply Nivea Aftershave Baum for sensitive skin or some type of moisturizer. I'm really tired of my acne, and really need something that will work. My acne makes me look like a 2 year old. Unfortunately I don't have insurance right now, so a dermatologist is out of the question.

First of all, I want to know what kind of acne I have. I already have some scars from my letting my acne go, and want to know how I can diminish or remove them. I blush easily, so I feel like I have rosacea too... Please help!

Definitely very mild acne. It doesn't make you look like a 2 year old.

Dude, are you serious? That is some of the mildest acne I've seen, It's all in your head!

And please only spot treat your pimples since they are so few. Putting BP on your whole face might damage it (trust me I know)

I second this.

Very mild acne judging by these pictures. I am willing to bet that there are people out there with significantly worse skin than yours who would not even consider themselves acne sufferers. Although I guess really it is not about how objectively 'bad' the problem is but how badly it impacts on you.

When I first glanced at the pics I thought you were trolling, then I clicked on them and saw a few pimples that looked like are in the process of healing. Maybe cut out dairy for a month and see if you still get zits.

My exact thoughts....I felt extremely awful after reading this post. What would compel someone to post a post like this in an acne forum under the severe section is beyond me.

My initial thought after reading this post was "If someone out there posted this post knowingly in the severe acne section perhaps thinking they had severe cystic acne...what the HELL would people think about me?"

Sigh.
