Men can use the same sunscreens as women...all this stuff about cosmetics being 'for men' is just marketing nonsense. I recommend Clinique City Block SPF 25 or 40, that's up to you, or Neutrogena Mu...

Because you are 24 and you didn't have acne before, I'd say it's hormonal. Almost all adult acne is. Accutane won't fix it if it is hormonal, I suggest that you tell your dermatologist that you'd like...

If they're very persistent, I suggest you extract them. Either buy a proper extraction tool, or steam your face and squeeze them with paper towels/tissues so you don't damage the pores and the surroun...

Not blow my own trumpet, i've dated some absolute stunning women and you know what? Most of them were douche bags. The more "average" looking girls have my more personality, that is to say the ones i ...

Your boyfriend sounds like an idiot, and honestly, unless he is a millionaire with a perfect body and face, he has no ground to stand on saying that kind of crap to you about not being successful and ...

It's an actual cyst, but it does get infected sometimes, so it becomes inflamed. My doctor is not even sure it's a sebaceous cyst, that's why I'm seeing and ENT specialist.

All of their product include frangrance, another thing that seems to be in every product is PPG 15 Stearyl Ether. I haven't used them in years, just curious.

Not to be a downer here or anything - but your acne is most definitely not mild. I would say it's moderate, bordering on severe...I know a lot of is scarring and you don't have a lot of active spots, ...

treasure your oil skin...especially if you've eaten roaccutane. You are so lucky   Pardon my French, but why *the fuck* would anybody treasure the thing that's such a pain in the ass to them? H...

1. Baby wipes - If I'm really lazy. Perfume and alcohol free of course! 2. Simple Eye Make-up Remover - I'm not that fond of Simple, but this make up remover is really good. Because it is for the eye...

Your face is almost always exposed to air, whereas the rest of your body is most often covered by clothes. [excluding the hands] Your face and back have the highest number of sebaceous glands, so that...

I very rarely experience allergic reactions to any kind of topical products, but the whole Clean & Clear range has brought me out in itchy hives whenever I used it. The first time at the age of 12...

Dan doesn't claim that the Regimen will clear severe cystic acne, because cystic acne needs more aggressive treatment than BP and I think no one with severe acne of this type is under the impression t...

Just as a side note, Epsom salt (Magnesium Sulfate) has nothing to do with regular salt (Sodium Chloride) I'm sure you know that, but I just thought I'd throw it out there for everyone else. I wish yo...

If sebum is just a barrier to protect the skin from environmental damage, then why does the amount that's excreted across the body vary so hugely?? The amount produced on the face is VAST, as we all ...

3 weeks is too soon to give up on benzoyl peroxide. That's a point where the flaking and dryness is at its worst and that's when most people are either tempted to give up and some of them do give up a...

Drawing salves do work, especially on cysts. (I know from personal experience rather than just reading some article on the internet.) If you want a cheap, effective drawing salve, make a very concentr...

I personally think 100% petroleum jelly is absolutely useless, it just sits on top of my skin, doesn't absorb at all...I don't even use it on my lips. I have nothing against creams that have some petr...

1. Dump your boyfriend. 2. Try repairing the damage that's been done, i.e. following the doctor's instructions. 3. Get on with your life and don't worry too much about how your skin looks, it's not ...

Seriously, your acne CANNOT be more important to you than your job! If it is, you are letting it control your life far too much. ATM, I would kill for a job. You are lucky enough to have one. Don't ...

Corn Silk powder was initially developed for this purpose. You can buy it matching your skin tone from pretty much any drugstore for a reasonable price.

I always thought sebum was more of a barrier to protect the skin from environmental damage, that's why people with oily skin have less wrinkles and not because it keeps the skin moist. Some people are...

What have you tried to get rid of oiliness apart from exfoliation? I don't recommend you 'buy' Accutane, see a dermatologist for that, it's not safe to buy prescription meds without a prescription f...

You can apply turmeric topically in the form of a home-made face mask for faster/better results. Just make sure you add either yoghurt, milk or oil to the mask otherwise the turmeric will turn your sk...

Only thing that helps with these is regular exfoliation and glycolic acid for me. But I think salicylic acid would work too, as it goes deeper into the pore rather than just dissolving the surface lik...
