Ahhh..the egg mask is on right now..feels good..and tight..i lost my proactive mask which is the only thing good that came outta that box of crap.. ..lol..but this seems to feel just as nice..and like 1/100th the price! Im just not sure whether i wash it off with face wash or.........water...
Just wanted to let everyone know that I've been doing ONLY the egg-white (and lemon) mask for 4 nights in a row now and I DEFINITELY see a reduction in the redness of the scars on my cheeks.
Since the rest of my skin is pretty pale, my red scars have always stood out and been embarrassing even when I had no pimples at all!
I recommend that EVERYONE with red scarring try this egg mask for a WHOLE week in a row (I'm up to night 4 now) and see for yourself!! My redness is DEFINITELY just pinkened slightly and I will cotninue to use it as long as need be!!! and Ill update more!!
really...this is inspiring. i have a lot of red marks on the sides of face (it looks blotchy and awful...so depressing ), and i've tried lots of regimens to reduce the redness with no success.
i was hesitant to try the baking powder and acv thing so i'll try what you did for a week. here's hoping to not breaking out even more (since this has happened to some)!
My skin gets really greasy if i use even an oil free moisturiser too, but after the eggwhite i put on acv and dont wash it off, and i just started using 100%aloe vera gel also and it's sooooo good, its not greasy at all or doesn't seem to clog pores and it helps with redness and in the morning when i wake up my skin is half as oily as it was when i didn't use it!
Ok, this is awesome. I have extremely mild acne, and for some reason my derm wanted to put me on Accutane. I joined this form, and have been doing quite a bit of research. I have decided Accutane was not the way to go, so I tried this starting 5 days ago. I had one pimple 5 days ago, under the skin, and this brought it up IMMEDIATELY! I am now clear, my old red marks are definately fading and I have wonderful smooth skin. I definately reccommend you try it!
Has anyone tried this tx with the electric toothbrush exfoliation method? More specifically, has anyone tried this or a slightly similar regimen:
AM: Exfoliating with an elctric toothbrush and a soap such as Basis, then washing off
Applying baking soda paste, then washing off
Applying 1:8 ACV, then washing off after 10 min.
Applying acne cream (i.e. 2.5% BP or neosporin)
PM: Exfoliating with an elctric toothbrush and a soap such as Basis, then washing off
Applying egg + lemon mask, then washing off after 10min
Applying acne cream (i.e. 2.5% BP or neosporin)
Just curious to what readers are doing.
Also, what time-table have people seen with the fading of red marks?

It's a yellow lemon. I don't believe color matters as long as you are getting the benefits from citric acid, vitamin C and other ingredients. Taste on the other hand.... yikes, go for yellow unless you're teaching yourself a very valuable and bitter lesson.
I think I have the similar problem... I've been having acne for ages now.. approx. 5 years or so? except that it shifted from forehead to cheeks. anyway, I get red marks all the time, even though they fade after time. I dont' know if there's any quicker way to make them vanish or make them entirely invisible (no make-up please ^^) just curious. The regimen sounds interesting... but I might start off with Dan's program first or maybe mix the two together somehow. We'll see... just gotta wait for Clear Skin Gel to arrive ^^
yellow lemon! green is lime. and is it okay to use already made egg whites from those bottles at the supermarket?
"already made eggwhite from a bottle"??!!?? what the fuck is that?!??!?!
Diet eggs...like egg beaters.
I'm curious too. Seems a shame to throw away all those egg yolks. I think they do have a lot of yellow dye, though, which might be bad for your skin.
