Hey guys. I've been lurking these forums for a while now. I've signed up to share my experience with acne and how I treated it. Hopefully this can and may help many of you out there!! I never really had much acne back when I was in highschool. Just a few here and there. But a year ago I started getting a lot of acne. Cyst acne and everything all over my face. Some say its because I started working out some say its cause I eat the wrong foods and others say its cause I lack sleep. All of those are possible but the acne kept on coming and coming regardless of what I did to try to fix it. About 3 months ago I was talking to a friend who had a lot of acne back in highschool. She told me what worked for her was natural yogurt. So I was like hey I might as well try right? Nothing to lose. I went to the supermarket and grabbed myself some greek natural yogurt and tried. I put the mask on once every night for about 30 mins. The longer the better it works. I saw a drastic change in my face. All of the cyst pimples going down and everything. Though I was still getting new smaller pimples. A roommate of mine started talking about putting soap on my face and washing it every night. I was hesitant on putting soap on my face as I heard nightmares on how it can further more ruin your skin and make it dry. Though she insisted to just try it. So again I tried it. Worked quite a bit. She then bought me an acne bar soap called gamophen and told me to try that. I did and again I saw great results! Though the soap was making my skin VERY dry after washing it off. I went to the local pharmacy and grabbed the olay complete UV protection moisture lotion for combination/oily skin as my skin is very oily. The lotion is great with my skin and works very well. So to sum things up, I've been at this routine of mine for about 3 weeks now and its been going great. My face looks better everyday. I've also been drinking LOTS of water and eating lots of fruits. I just wanted to share this with anyone suffering from mild to moderate acne like I am. Though those people who are suffering from a lot of acne you can try this too! Just wanted to share my experience with acne and how I am tackling it. Those who want to try it my routine is:

In the morning or whenever I wake up:

Gamophen acne bar soap - leave the soap on for no longer than a minute. (about 40 seconds)

Olay complete UV protection moisture lotion

At Night:

Natural Greek Yogurt Mask - every night for 30 mins or more.

Gamophen acne bar soap - leave the soap on for no longer than a minute. (about 40 seconds)

Olay complete UV protection moisture lotion

Hope it works for you guys too! Good luck!
