Well I was planning on giving this a month before I decide. My acne worsened too when I went on the stale stuff and I suspect that it might have something to do with storing it. When you just use it 'straight from the tap' it's uncontaminated (if you have taken all the other precautions), but when it's been stored in a container it's been touched by cotton pads and bacteria must get into it and then rest on your skin. Plus, my BF really hates having a container with URINE written on it in the fridge. As for drinking it, I was doing it before my period came and then of course I had to stop and now I seem to have lost my nerve. I'm going to start first thing in the morning though. I think that attacking it from inside and out will be more effective than just out. I'm starting to think tht I shouldn't have started oil pulling at the same time as this because OP is most likely going to give me a pretty big purge and then I won't really be able to tell if the urine is working. I think I'll wait until after the summer to start the OP.

I HATE ACNE TOO!! I don't like to sound like a whiner or anything but it suuuuuuuuucks. And ALL of my friends and family have grown out of it already. I'm the only one who hasn't!!

i was getting pretty fed up last night. so what i did was i just poured it on rather than gingerly dab it on. for some reason that seemed to work better and didn't piss it off and make it all red. and yes, it was the fresh stuff

Day Thirteen

Skin is still looking better everyday. Still no inflamed acne at all. My comedonal acne is clearing up as well but at a very slow pace. Overall skin tone is looking very nice, but I got a sunburn on the weekend so my nose sticks out like a sore thumb. I've developed a little routine now. I get up for my first urine of the day and before I pee I wash my pace with cetaphil. Then I grab my cup and wash it out. Then I clean my area and pee in the cup. And finally I dip a cotton ball in and rub it all over my face. I was using toilet paper but I like the cotton ball better because it is so absorbent and gets lots of pee on my skin. Then I wash out the cup again and go have my tea and then hop into the shower 20 mins or so later and rinse it off with just water. Before I was putting it on an unwashed face and then washing it off it the shower and I don't think it was working as well. I do the same thing at night before I go to bed and then rinse it off later so as not to scare my bf off. I still haven't restarted on drinking it. I kind of keep forgetting. I think I'll just wait until my books arrive, which should be any day now. Haha I was thinking of keeping them on the back of the toilet with all our magazines for bathroom reading but my friends and fam would have an uproar, lol. The only people that know about this new thing I'm trying is my bf and my parents.

What kind of acne do you have held by hope?

idk the types of acne lol. i kinda range from light-moderate. so today is day 12 for me, and nothing has really happened.

wow I haven't been here in a while. I stopped using the urine and then started again. I think it's helping but not clearing me completely. I still have lots of acne, but the urine got rid of a lot of the medium sized one that I had scattered across my face. I wonder if anyone else is still doing this?

So for those of you doing this, I have a question.
would it work if I only applied it once before bed?
The idea of going around with it on my face all day kinda scares me (but props to those who do) and I also go swimming a lot during the summer because there is a lake near my house, so I don't think it would stay on.
and do you guys do your normal face wash before?

its best to use your morning urine because the evening urine has more excess hormones in it, or so I read. I don't keep mine on all day I just wake up and wash my face and then do my pee thing and then go and have a tea and when I'm done I hop in the shower and just rinse face with water and shower as usual. Doesn't take up much more time. I have to have a shower everyday though so I'm not sure what you do. I do use mine in the evening as well, but I read that morning is best so if you're just doing it once a day then maybe morning's better?

Honestly, I don't think using urine is gross at all...In fact, if it works as well as others have said then why the hell wouldn't you try it?? It's not like we're saying "Go into the nearest public bathroom and have everyone pee in a cup". then yes...I would understand the harsh remarks

Anyway...I have been using the baking Soda scub...Sometimes leaving it on as a mask till it dries then wash off with luke warm water. This seems to be bringing out all the ones that may have been hiding so my skin doesn't look so great right now....

I just started to do the "pee pee" dance with the rest of you...So wish me luck!! It's only been a day but...We'll see. Somethings gotta give right?? For the love of God...Something has got to work!!!

Also I got prescribed Differin Gel...AAnybody have any experience with this stuff?? I haven't used it yet cause I'm going on vacation soon and don't want to be extra sensitive to the sun. I'm a little nervous to use this if it's anything like Retin-A...That made my skin so flaky I looked like a lepor

Keep this thread going though please I really want to hear about everyone's progress.

*Side Note*
Kelsie123- I checked out your before and after pics...You skin looks great!! Glowing pretty skin is a wonderful thing isn't it?? God, I miss it

I'm not sure if this has already been brought up or not - if so I apologise!

What about when you're mensturating, just about to or have just finished? Does it make a difference? Is it better/worse?

My initial reaction to this treatment was not shock or disgust. I figured it made perfect sense. I'm in the process of researching it fully before I try it. I don't think I would drink it at this point, and would have to see how the smell affects me, if at all, before I decide on whether to wash it off or leave it on. Is it alright to leave it on under moisturiser and makeup?

All your pee is just excess minerals/vitamins why not just get the ones that you know help with acne in softgel and put it all over your face?

how could you possibly have a stomach to drink urine and rub it on your face!

I highly doubt many people are putting their own urine on their face and seeing vast results compared to an otc product such as apple cider vinegar, or witch hazel which soothes the skin.

I've been slowly reading through the entire thread, start to finish. A lot of people are seeing amazing results. Someone even posted befores and afters and they were incredible! I have not personally tried apple cider vinegar but don't like the idea of it. Call me crazy, gross, whatever - but I'd rather put my own pee on my face and have a higher chance that it'll work. I used to belong to the school of thought that the harsher it felt on my skin, the better it was working. I've ruined my skin that way.

Read the thread or do your own research. It does make sense.

Quick question for those who know something about this

I have been using urine therapy for a week, and it certainly made my skin look better, however but also alot of painful white heads appeared on my chin

Now I certainly can't see how urine can create white heads, however I am at loss for an exaplanation?

Could be because it is bringing out all the pimples faster than they usually would?
