SoCalLove 0 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Hi, My acne hasn't been too bad as of late. Still a bit red and I'll get whiteheads a couple of times a week. But it isn't so bad. Anyways, recently, the skin around my chin has started to peel a bit. It comes off in rolls. Thats the only way I can really think of describing it. If I put my hand over the peeling skin and just stroke my chin, the skin'll just peel off and roll up like you're rolling a piece of clay into a noodle. Hopefully that gives you some idea of what's happening. It doesn't hurt and is just very thin thin pieces of skin but I can see that it's red underneath. I've been moisturizing a lot. Has anyone else experienced this before? What have you done? It just started recently when it started getting colder around here (Seattle). I put a humidifier in my room to help deal with the dry air and it started around then. Could it have anything to do with that? HELP! Thank you! Edit: I'm also taking Mincocycline, drinking ACV, applying a 2.5% BP Wash on my face in the morning, and Tazorac at night before bed.

Easyonit 0 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Sounds like to me your skin needs to get rid of unwanted skin cells EXFOLIATE! should help a fair bit. Heres what i tend to do. Fill up your kettle with water and set it to heat. Find a container. Pour the boiling water into it. Lean your face over the container with a towel wrapped round your head to allow all the heat and steam onto your face ( this will losen and unwanted/dead cells) allow this for about 15mins or as much as you can take. Then use a facial scrub perhaps somthing along the lines of this Just a scrub that is review'd effective. then pat dry not rub and this will tear off more skin. hope that heaps Edited November 19, 2009 by Easyonit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
