I Have Light Acne..help?

[acowles 1]

Hi, I have pretty light acne. I think it looks pretty gross cause of the hyper pigmentation and pimples, but others say it's fine. But I can never seem to have a time where there is not a zit on my face. Once in a blue moon, I will have blackheads and only one pimple.

Usually I have like 4 small ones and maybe one or two large red ones. What do you suggest for remedies/skin care? I have oily/combo skin and it's fair.

Morning-

Wash with Lush Fresh Pharmacy

Tone with a mixture of ACV and Green tea

Moisturize with CeraVe

Night-

Oil cleasne with EVOO

Tone with same ACV mixture

Apply Retin-a .04%

Apply moisturizer if needed

Once a week I try to do some kind of mask. Like the other day I did a avacado mask with a tiny bit of lemon. And once or twice I week I'll exfoliate with Lush's Ocean Salt.

whats your diet like? it could get worse as you get older if you dont get to the root problem of your acne

Diet could be something to look at, and make sure you wash your sheets and pillowcase at least once a week. Also, I really like using a nightly spot treatment. I use Kate Somerville's EradiKate, which is mostly sulfur. It's amazing.

Yeah I change my pillow case often and put little dots of BP on active zits. Maybe it's my diet. I love sugar lol And cheese. Whahh

Haha I love cheese and soda so I can relate. I find that BP can irritate my acne more sometimes and prolong PIH. I encourage you to try the Kate Somerville or Mario Badescu drying cream. They are both effective but way more gentle than BP.

Could it be the EVOO? I did the OCM method for a while, and I think it caused a lot of my bumps ;\
