I think the best thing to do is not to touch it during the day. So only wash it gently once per day during shower/bath Yeah mate i have been doing that for months but no improvement I guess it is t...

My brother and Mum both had bad acne in their teens, and grew out of it. Hopefully I grow out of it soon (20 now).

awesome thanks for all the replies! I don't honestly think it will be that hard for me to do, i love snacking on nuts, ive not eaten yoghurt, ice cream, pizza, fizzy drinks etc for as long as i can re...

I did the Whole30 challenge 2 months ago and noticed a bit of a change in my skin when I did so. The Whole30 is purely paleo eating, and it ended up making my body look awesome! haha It lessened the r...

I also cut out dairy recently because I've had poor digestion for a long time. Though I'm not sure if I'm dairy intolerant or not - I cut out gluten about 2 weeks before cutting out dairy (my main sus...

I've personally noticed my skin get clearer, but not cured, when I eat "clean" (low GI carb) foods. I've basically noticed that my skin's oiliness is quite significantly influenced by my diet. Some p...

Another thing - my shoulders and chest breaks out quite badly *only* if i use any wash/cleanser or BP on it - im forced into the "water only" thing on my chest. (ive tried and tested numberous times a...

I don't think so. I've recently cut out multivitamins because I did a check with the amount of fruit/veg that I typically eat, and realised I was overdosing of most of them! I might consider an iron ...

Some people will grow out of it, some people won't. My brother - who is 3 years older than me - I remember he used to have pretty bad acne around 13-15 years old. He grew out of it around 16-17. He di...

From my honest view, it isn't that bad at all You have slight redness around the chin which probably makes it look slightly worse than it is. But really, it's not that bad!

Well, that's made my day...

Good topic here that is relevant: Thanks, I didn't know about that. I can relate to everything in that thread!

How many of you will you be able to return to life as it used to be as if nothing happened. And for those who got clear, how many of you still suffer from the mental effects? Just wondering

Definitely. But I've come to accept it. Nothing can be done about it anymore

I've always found that eating a good diet has had a profound effect on how bad my acne was. I have much less inflammation and sebum production. Whilst a good diet isn't a "cure", it's definitely a pre...

I really wouldn't do this. A total water fast, even if anecdotally has improved scars, I still wouldn't do. What someone else said about fasting for 16 hours and eating for 8 hours is called intermit...

I sometimes worry that the fact that we're trying so many (harsh) regimens will mean that we'll never grow out of it ^^That just terrified me...

Oh, and this is just fantastic. Since, I started this whole healthy eating regimen (a few months back), I have lost a ton of weight. Which is not good. Everyone keeps pointing it out, which is making ...

Do you guys actually think there might actually be an acne-masturbation connection? Even if there was,surely it would only be negligible. Personally, I don't think so, but I wouldn't obsess / be real...

Hey everyone, I'm Half Filipino (Mum's side) Hello! Hahha UK !!! I just like the accents there. Can you speak tagalog? Im from Canada Anyways, i dont like talking in taglish (a mixture of tagalog ...

Hey everyone, I'm Half Filipino (Mum's side)

Okay, well best of luck then!!! I'm glad you're on a solid regimen, and 6 weeks is definitely a proper amount of time to make a substantial amount of progress. Be careful since salicylic acid can b...
