Hi guys, just joined the forum in desperation. I have had over productive sebaceous glands (I think??) since I was about 13. I am now 23 and sick of having disgusting skin with spots all the time. I don't think it is a traditional type of acne, but I do get it in very specific places. That is my forehead, to the side of my eyebrows, below the corners of my mouth, just under my jaw line and then other places like chest back and back of arms. The condition makes my skin rough and bumpy and in those certain places I get a lot of black heads/oily white stuff production. Like looooooads of it. It's sad because I remember when I first hit puberty and all of my cheek skin suddenly got rough and bumpy I hated it so much I took sandpaper to it and really cut up my cheeks I was so embarrassed 🙁

So basically my routine at the mo involves a daily scrub/wash followed by moisturising (I'm using bio oil) which helps a bit when compared to doing nothing but I really need more. I am an adult and thought I might grow out of it after 18 but 5 years later and I still look fucking disgusting. I hate it.

I'll see if I can attach some photos so you can see what I'm dealing with. I really want to find something that stops me having bumpy, rough, blemished skin with regular whiteheads/spots in key areas.

Please help?!
