Do you eat dairy products? If so cut that out & see if anything happens. I gave up dairy 5 months ago and I have not had a huge acne cyst since. I hope it helps you out!

sounds like those creams/ washes your using could be causing one part of your problem. to test this, i would recommend washing your face with water only for 1-2 weeks. if your skin calms down, you have your trigger.

( i have sensitive skin. most creams and washes make me break out and cause redness)

for me, i have seen good results with using aspirin masks for redness/cysts and lemon juice for red marks. do some research on both, before trying.

there is other methods to lighten red marks, do a forum search.

What types of fruits are you eating? Some fruits are high in GI and may be the cause of your acne. Also are you getting the vitamins you need; A, B, C, D and E? Eating nuts will be good for zinc intake.

Also consider cutting out oil from food in general, only coconut oil. This might help.

Just pm me if you want some more help on this.
