Just wanted to see how you were doing! I hope you're hanging in there. I know what you mean about the stress of marks. I used to never have problems with marks, but when I started spiro and my breakou...

I know! It is so frustrating! I had been using Retin-A Micro up till about 3 weeks ago. I felt that Retin-A Micro was making my skin WAY to sensitive. It would bleed so easily and scab! I went back to...

Thanks for the tip surfnyc! I got samples of makeup forever when I went and got bareminerals! I haven't tried it out yet tho. I should! Day 94 I am still not clear. I am still breaking out, just n...

Do you have tiny little bumps all over your chin and around your nose and stuff? Is that what you mean by little bumps? Because that is what seems to have happened to me! I have a bunch of tiny bumps ...

It took me 6 months to see the results of spiro (with 100mg/day.) I was quite discouraged and wondered if it would even work. It was VERY worth the wait, though -- I had pretty severe cystic acne and...

Hi! I wish had actual advice for you, but I can give you my experience! I started spiro January 17th. I've been keeping a log actually. It hasn't been 3 months yet and I'm not clear yet, but I don't w...

What makeup do you use to cover up??   I made the switch to BareMinerals and have been very happy with the results! I got the starter kit and use the foundation as my concealer. I have heard th...

Just wanted to let you know that I am going through just about the same as you! My breakouts are a lot less than they were, but the remnants of old breakouts are still healing which has left my skin t...

Day 78 Yesterday I hit the 11 week mark on spiro and tomorrow I will be done with my first pack of birth control. I had two white heads on the right of my chin that I popped this morning. The right ...
