To be honest at the end of the day even though you aren't keen on going back on birthcontrol, if your skin is getting you down enough and interfering with your life to such a point there becomes a tim...

Almost End of Week 5 Argh I'm so angry at myself, I honestly think I have dermatillomania, I just can't stop picking. The thing is for the last week or so I've have very few new and noteworthy a...

Do the bumps have white tips on them? If not, they kind of look more like comedones to me (clogged pores). Do some image searching. If they are clogged pores and not white heads, bp is not going to...

Hey lizbo, I know it sucks right now but you've come to the right place because you aren't alone, things will get better. Maybe not right now, but it will. I was going to a new years eve party last ni...

The thing about antibiotics is that they are only a short term fix. You will become resistant to them eventually and it seems like you already are. Perhaps you should look into some hormone balancing ...

7-8, only because of redness but your skin looks really smooth! At least smooth enough to cover with makeup really well if you do/ever want to. What are you using currently on your skin?

No I think this is fine as long as you don't get too irritated! I think both SA and GA work really well in combination as they tackle the inside of your pores and the outer layer of your skin.

While it sucks right now, it's good that you are able to pinpoint what causes your breakouts! I've tried everything including 2 types of bcp and have been fumbling round in the dark for 5 years now. ...

End of Week 4 Wow time certainly goes fast in retrospect. While my face is still a little better from the first three weeks, it's still worse than it was a month ago pre-differin. I thi...

So have you tried to use the bp again to help it? Unfortunately, benzoyl peroxides main mechanism of action is to kill the p. acne bacteria, so when you stop using it, especially cold turkey, you w...

First day of Week 4 update The cyst I was so terrified about has dried up and is now just pih! So that's good, but a few more of my graveyard-papules have come back again. 🙁 Still avoiding peopl...

Yes I tried this and it gave me the most awful allergic reaction! Even looking at that image of it makes me cringe now... Moral of the story, do a patch test because this cleanser has a lot of ingr...

Unfortunately the problem with accutane is that people sometimes relapse. This doesn't mean your acne will necessarily come back as bad though. How long ago was your course? I don't think you are d...

End Of Week 3 Wanting to neck it right now. Hmm so at the start of the week I actually had no major bumps or papules, I knew a few were still lurking under my skin but no worries as the...

I can't see your pics cause I don't have a shutterfly account. If you say you've already been to a derm and tried heaps of prescriptions, for comedones most derms will prescribe a retinoid like dif...

Looks like some comedones. Unfortunately non-inflammatory acne is a little harder to treat than inflammatory. First off don't pick these! You'll most likely find if you try to extract them they wil...

You say TTO and BP doesn't work so that may indicate that it isn't bacterial. And whatever clears your hormonal breakouts doesn't effect your eyebrow breakouts. The scales may indicate perhaps some ki...

Yeah agree with WishClean completely! Deffs try D3 and let us know how it goes!!!

Personally I think my acne is caused by a gene passed by my grandmother where her skin has trouble shedding. I have dry skin, not oily and get these keratin plugs in my lesions, inflammatory or not...
