Flaxen

Hi, I use the Avene extremely gentle cleanser sometimes (As you just use cotton pads and don't need water I use it on mornings when I can't get in the bathroom! - I live in a house with 3 other girls ...

some excellent posts must agree with "flaxen" -Trust yourself - not doctors.====doctors are like politicans,you will occassionally find a good one if you keep looking. your very lucky if you find a go...

To answer your questions 1. There is no risk like I said, sure it is an inconvenience but it is worth exploring. To say that one should not eliminate foods because it is too hard is ridiculous. You al...

I would also like to back up eliminating certain foods.. if I eliminate all sources of wheat and corn I do not have acne. Unfortunately corn is in everything so it has proven very difficult, but many ...

Thank you for the dosing info, I was just going to take 320. Have been taking 640 this week, maybe it has helped a tiny bit? I could just be imagining it! And I did add aha back in to my regimen so it...

It doesn't really make sense for it to be the weather as it was really bad both in the summer when it was hot and now again when it's very cold (snowing!) but was better in the autumn. Though I guess ...

Thanks that's really helpful! I'll give it a bit longer. I was thinking about trying saw palmetto too in the meantime. Though I guess then I won't know if it's the bc taking effect or the saw palmetto...

Hi sorry for the lack of information. I'm on birth control - a generic version of dianette.

DO NOT ELIMINATE FOODS! It makes me really angry when I see people suggesting that because it is dangerous (physically and psychologically) and VERY unlikely to do any good. Some people do have genuin...

Ok I might be able to afford that, thanks so much for the info! How much of a difference did it make?

Hi, I can relate! I hate that I have to spend over an hour putting make up on in the morning just so I can look anyone in the eye... But I am very glad I'm female and have that option... Have you ever...

Depends how you define natural I'm using vitamin C serum and retin-a to help with mine. retin-a doesn't sound natural but it is just topical vitamin a really... No good if you want to get pregnant ag...

Acne can be both hormonal and bacterial. As I understand it hormones change the skin environment - make it more oily etc. which makes it easier for the bacteria to grow. Benzoyl peroxide works against...

Hi, I suppose this isn't so much about the psychological effects of acne but if it can be a cause too... I have bipolar disorder so I go up and down... I noticed that my oiliness had improved recently...

I know that it takes months for acne to clear up with hormonal treatments, but should oiliness improve straight away/sooner? Is that a good indicator if a particular treatment is going to work for us?...

Hi, thank you so much for posting your experiences with hormonal treatments! Exactly what I was looking for! I've been on dianette for 3 months but I think I need something more... Like you oiliness i...

Hi! Thanks for your reply, that's really helpful. I think I might look into it a bit more then... It's good to know you think it was worth it. Do you mind if I ask how much it cost? I might not be abl...

Hi, so this isn't to do with regimen supplies, but I wanted to ask a UK specific question so I thought this would be the place to get the right audience... I haven't been to a dermatologist (but mig...

It's always a bit of a gamble as to whether your package will be stopped at Customs for VAT collection. I have always had to pay VAT and the associated "charge" whenever my order has gone even slightl...

You can get 5% Duac from your GP, I'd recommend that over 10% definitely. Do you pay for your prescriptions? If so Dan's BP actually works out cheaper because the size of the tube is so big (see my po...

I just recieved my acne.org bp today It only took a week to arrive after I placed my order with amazon.com and the bottle is huge! 8oz = 226.8g and 1 tube panoxyl is 40g. So the acne.org bp = 5 and 2...

I got a home use peel and I had no problems at all, having done it myself so easily I wouldn't pay for it. It's hard to get Dan's products in the UK, the customs charges make them really expensive (an...

Hi, I've been really bothered by flakes on the regimen (since 2.5% bp got discontinued in the UK.) Finally I have found a solution! So I thought I'd share in case it can help anyone else. I did my fir...
