Nothing Works Go see a dermatologist and see what they recommend you do. Better to go now and save the time you would spend guessing what to use. And don't listen to your siblings. My siblings made fun of me too. N... | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
I Think I Gave Myself Acne I don't think you can give yourself acne like that, at least I choose to believe that. I think what you were trying to treat was just the beginning and you would have gotten to where you are now with ... | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
Oily And Dry Skin You can get from this site, but its an oil that is very similar to the oil your skin produces. You can add it to any moisturizer to give your skin a hydration boost. Worth a try. | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
Can I Wear Makeup To See Derm For 1St Time? Hey all. Its been a while since I've seen my derm, but I'm seeing her tomorrow. Do you think she can assess my skin properly even if I wear makeup? The reason I ask is because I really don't have the ... | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
Oily And Dry Skin Maybe you need to find a better moisturizer. Add some jojoba oil maybe? Very few moisturizers work for me without the added jojoba oil. | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
15 Day Picking Challenge I think I'm going to try this. 15 days, then I'll re-evalute my skin and see if its helped or hindered. Obviously when I get those whiteheads or those deep ones that become really itchy, I will pop. B... | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
Oily And Dry Skin Do you moisturize? I think its the most important thing you can do for your skin. It should help with oiliness too. I find oily skin is just dry skin trying to compensate with oil. | In forum Acne | 10 years ago |
Is This A Cyst? I'm so sorry if this is a stupid question, I've just never had a pimple so painful I can feel it in my bone. I've had "deep" pimples before that hurt to touch but this one aches even when I'm not touc... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |

Sad And Depressed You know your body better than anyone. Go demand a hormone test. That's what I plan on doing next week. I don't care what my doctor tells me. I am not taking BC, I am not taking antibiotics and I do n... | 11 years ago | |
Why Is My Skin Like This/remedies? If those aren't acne scars and just randomly appear like that, I would go see a dermatologist. | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Dim Experiences/advice I'm going to direct you to an article I recently read. I too have tried DIM, Estroblock, and didn't notice any difference. AcneEinstein is my favourite place to get critical advice on what works and w... | In forum Diet & holistic health | 11 years ago |
Supplementing I don't think zinc is a placebo affect. Studies have shown that the more severe the acne, the more deficient the body is in zinc, therefore taking zinc can help acne. Obviously its not the thing that ... | In forum Diet & holistic health | 11 years ago |

Getting Rid Of Oily Skin/cystic Acne Naturally? I saw "naturally" so I thought I'd reply. Before I go into what I'm trying, I do want to say I agree with kashmoney123. I've ditched the over-drying topical treatments, they just make my skin worse be... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |

Nothing Is Working, Don't Want To Take Harsh Meds Or Bc I use Almay Smart Shade, but I've been using that for a while and didn't have any problems. I would stop using it but my skin is so bad right now I don't have the confidence to go make-up-less | In forum Other acne treatments | 11 years ago |

Switching To Dan's Regimen Switching is definitely worth it. I've used all sorts of store bought products for acne, but Dan's products are the first to actually help. It's just nice to have brand consistency, in my head anyway,... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Irritated Skin You probably just need to cut down, or stop using it for a couple of days. I find the AHA bothers me WAY more than the BP. Maybe cut out the AHA for a few days and see if that's the problem. If your s... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Regimen Log It's probably purging. Keep at it. You should give every treatment at least 3 months before switching or changing up the routine. | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Why Does My Face Turn Shiny After Using Cleanser? I've experienced this in the past as well. I'd say you need a really good moisturizer. What are you using to moisturize? Or maybe a face wash that doesn't strip your skin of so much moisture. | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
