Still getting worse 🙁

Anne Seifert, san diego ca

I really want to try Smashbox blemish control primer with the 2% Sa, anyone use that?

So now that the swelling has gone down and Im able to wash my face, the acne is starting to reappear on my chin. Im still on antibiotics however. This is a never ending cycle of confusion

Bad diet can cause hormones to fluctuate which is why people with acne prone skin get breakouts. I have a great diet so that is not always the case 🙂

I started birth control because I did get my hormones checked and my testosterone was high, but its been 3 months and now I just get all my acne on my chin. Im also taking 75 mg of spiro as im very oi...

I think the bc can become innefective but i dont really have a choice as Ive gotten my wisdom teeth pulled out haha. But ive heard mixed things, so im not sure. Its just for 7 days and I was on sugar ...

  Birth control pills can take 3-6 months, stick to it! Ive read some finally clear up by month 9   Seriously?  How come it takes so short for othe...

Ive been vegan for about 3-4 years and that is about the time I started getting acne. I dont correlate my diet with it as a lot of things happened like stopping lithium, quitting smoking, etc. But yes...

Im on antibiotics for a week because I got my wisdom teeth pulled and of course, my skin is wonderful (amoxicillin). Since this works, does that mean that I need something similar to fix my acne? Any ...

Currently starting my period but have been continuously getting cysts just on my chin. I guess it just all moves to there instead? Called the pharmacy and after next month if it doesnt improve ill swi...

Ive heard good things about the pc bha. Unfortunately it didnt do it for me, and I used it for months. The aha makes a big difference for me though! I highly recommend that.But using the clarisonic tw...

I know how you feel. I'm ashamed at how obsessed I am with my acne, when there are so many worse cases out there. Mine is mild to moderate, and will eventually clear up in one way or another (I hope) ...

Hey ladies. As a 16 plus year acne sufferer who has still not found reprieve, I can say that half the battle of dealing with this dreaded disease is mindset. I am currently in therapy for my depressi...

Girl I feel ya. Mine was a little worse than that last week. But if its going to work, its going to take a few months. Its your body adjusting to hormones. For the time being just look at it like its ...

Oh theres plenty to eat! Check out my food ig @exningeats coconut aminos is a great salt alternative. Nuts and nut butters are a good protein source aside from quinoa, millet, and buckwheat

Hormones fluctuate pretty frequently, I would also test for free flowing testosterone and maybe thyroid? I was always tested for thyroid while on lithium and it was always normal till I got it tested ...

Sounds like my diet but I love the way I eat! Im vegan, gluten free, and avoid pretty much anything processed. Mostly organic, and im also allergic to some fruits and veggies. But her list isnt too ex...

Still having cystic acne and im at the end of Month 3. I keep reading Zarah gives people acne when they have switched over from Yasmin? Do I need to switch? Ahhh halp

Im on month 3 of Zarah (yasmin) and still am developing cysts. Ive heard a lot of people notice the difference after month 3 so im hoping too, that itll magically clear up. Im getting a lot more than ...

Youre going to get so many different replies with this. But from what ive read here are my suggestions: stick to a routine more than a few weeks. It can take up to 3 months for a treatment to work. St...

Aw man. Reading stuff like this bums me out, makes me want to stop taking the spiro. Ive only been on it for less than 2 weeks. No sign of side effects or improvements, but I know it can take a while....

Your acne looks like mine, and I too have difficulty naming it haha. It looks like cystic/nodular to me. Also could be hormonal, showing where the acne is located. I recently got on birth control for ...

I would love to see photos, to possibly compare it to mine
