I suggest you seek out a good beautician for an acid peel. Acid peels can go horribly wrong if not done properly. Age is not a concern for acid peels, however, only a qualified beautician can tell you...

I think it's best to buy pure bentonite clay, like Aztec Healing Clay, but any brand will do the job, you get much more for your money and you can add things to it as well create a consistency that yo...

I have seborrhoeic dermatitis on my scalp, so I have to be extra careful with what I use: I use the regular Polytar medicated shampoo, and I tend to alternate between Simple and Original Source cond...

My personal opinion is that Sodium Lauryl Sulphate and Sodium Laureth Sulphate are great at cleansing and controlling oil. I had the best results with cleansers that contained one or both of these ing...

If you are interested in mixing your own shade, you can mix Maybelline Superstay and Revlon Colourstay together, they have very similar formulas and will mix well. I personally don't like Maybelline ...

I use Olay Double Action Sensitive - I use the night version but there is a day version. It's not expensive but it's not cheap either - it costs me £5 for a 50ml jar. It has a very matte finish, but a...

I have been to an endocrinologist before, but for a different reason, anyway, my regular GP did a test to see my hormones were normal, and my results were pretty normal and I do have extremely oily sk...

To anyone reading this topic: please do not be tempted to buy spironolactone or any prescription medication from an online 'vendor'. It is not legal to buy prescription medicines off the internet and ...

That look like keratosis pilaris to me, which is not acne. Most of the pictures if you search for it will show that it's red, but it is sometimes brown in certain people.

That sounds terrible. Your gyno should have explained the possible side effects to you, especially with a method as invasive as an IUD. Women, remember that there are other options apart from the pi...

I use Revlon Colourstay too, it's my favourite foundation. Only downside to this line that the shades are very limited. Only around half of them have pink undertones. This is a link to the shades av...

This depends entirely on how sensitive your skin is. If you have very sensitive skin, I would be cautious of using 5%, but if you've been using 2.5% and it didn't cause any irritation I'd say you are ...

I really recommend you use a pure oil such as coconut oil instead of a moisturiser. Pretty much anything can irritate SD...with a moisturizer you're playing russian roulette, unless it's a very natura...

Your pores look completely normal...no one has pore-less skin.

The only two things that have considerably shrunk my pores are: 1. Glycolic acid at 10% solution 2. Clay masks [only temporarily] Salicylic acid is great for getting rid of blackheads however it ...

Yeah it does sound like you have seborrheic dermatitis and I'm not super familiar with it but ask your dermatologist for a different option? What kind of moisturizer are you using right now?   ...

I have seborrhoeic dermatitis on my scalp, I use a tar shampoo with mediocre results, but I also use coconut/almond/walnut oil, which probably work more than the tar. I recommend you start with coconu...

Okay, my advice is to stop spending money on products and stop trying to self-diagnose...you need to see a dermatologist. No one is going diagnose your skin problem over the internet. When you don't k...

Yep, aloe vera can for 100% sure cause breakouts...when I was about 12, my grandma bought loads of bottles of aloe vera juice for me to drink, to help with my acne. In the first 2 weeks, my face looke...

Clinique CityBlock SPF 40 is far superior to any other I've used. You can also get it in SPF 25. It's formulated for oily skin and is fragrance free. I'm not sure whether it could be labelled non-come...

I recommend you just leave your skin to be, the redness will go away within a few hours. No need to panic.

Yes, it sounds like its time to go to the Drs. Nothing they will give you is a massive miracle, however if you want to go onto accutane (which you can research on here) it can take a long time as the ...

I have used this, it did nothing for my existing acne, but it did stop a lot of breakouts. I used it for 2 years on and off, before my skin became resistant to the clymadicin [the antibiotic] in the c...

I have the exact same problem and on my chin too, nothing brings them to the surface apart from glycolic acid. It turns them into pustules that pop very easily and heal quickly.
