Acne.org Products
And I mean "wasted", as in things that made little-to-no difference for your skin.
Ignoring face washes and that time I tried Benzoyl Peroxide, I just calculated the amount money I've wasted on my acne. I still have the half-full bottles for most of these, the rest I just went from the top of my head.
Magnesium - $26
Vitamin A - $5
Opti-L-Zinc - $11 x 5 = $55
Zantac - $100
L-Methionine - $15
Milk Thistle - $20
St John's Wort - $15
Chromium - $8
Omega-3/Fish Oil - $40
Niacin - $15
Glucomannan - $22
Greens Daily Detox - $30
Probiotics - $40
Candizyme - $35
Nutritionist's electro-accupuncture sessions - $300
Total = $726
It'll be more if I decide all the Vitamin D I've taken has been worthless. Same for Vitamin C, B5 and L-Carnitine. But I'm still taking those, so I don't count them as "wasted" just yet. I'm thinking of ordering like $70 worth of B5 and L-Carnitine too.
I would pay another $1000 up front right now though, if it guaranteed I'd have clear skin for the rest of my life. Probably even more.
Well, when I was younger we wasted thousands of dollars on dermatologists and medicines alone. Plus all the supplements that did nothing. I'd say well over 5 grand during my ten year battle, if not more. Also, 5 years of BP at over $20 a bottle after shipping adds up.
There's a reason I only do natural things to heal my body now. Things that will help me be healthier anyway.

Me too. and i didnt have insurance for the second course of accutane. of course doctor office visits were reasonably priced back then. Unlike the outrageously inflated costs now.
And I don't consider the supplements to be wasted. More magnesium, D, etc is a good thing. I still take those two. Although that huge bottle of MSM was definitely wasted as it broke me out.
Almost none, i was so lucky that i found the natural way to cure the right away. Ended up watching all "acneerasingsecrets" and "thelovevitamin" on youtube. And guess what im clear now and i cleared 90% of my acne in just 1-2 weeks.
I have only bought lemons, apple cider vinegar, baking soda and stuff like that which you normally have in the house.
