Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

The photos are taken with a bad quality camera so it doesn't show up too well, but as well as acne* I have this persistent blotchiness and uneven skin. even when my skin is clear-ish my forehead, nose, and chin especially (where I get the most spots) I have this persistent redness and blotchy complexion. I'm very self-conscious without make-up when I feel like even people with worse acne don't have the same awful skin tone? I am naturally very pale which probably doesn't help.

I've considered rosacea but this seems unlikely for a 21 year old and in only these areas? I'm confused and desperate for help :(

(let me know if these links work I'm not sure how to insert them...)

*I realise it is fairly mild in these photos, but I have been on roaccutane in the past for more severe acne which affected my back/chest more than my face

I have rosacea- been treating it since 17. Any age can have rosacea- even though its usually widely known for someone of old age.
