So I have been using a daily AHA (Paula's Choice skin perfecting 8% gel) for almost 2 weeks now on a patch test area of my face where I have scarring and normally get acne. Before I started the AHA I ...

UPDATE: Glycerin WASN'T to blame for my breakout after all! I think it was a result of coming off Remeron (for those that don't know it's an antidepressant) that was responsible since my acne cleared ...

Hi guys. I have recently purchased the acne.org cleanser and I have only used it on my face twice. Both times my skin felt very dry and taught afterwards. I used the right amount and followed the regi...

I am STILL breaking out. The breakouts I got on my cheeks (which hardly ever breakout) have sort of dried up now from the BP I use daily, so it's not as bad as it was but I'm still getting breakouts o...

Hi. As you probably remember, I had a negative experience with PC BHAs. I just never stopped breaking out. I'm on a break from it at the momnet while I try to get my skin back under control from using...

Oh wait, I get it now. Chemical sunscreens are more likely to be problematic for acne and rosacea prone skin compared to physical sunscreens. It's odd that it just so happens that this particular suns...

I'm breaking out really bad I don't know what's causing it. It's one of 2 things. Yesterday I tried a sample of Paula's sunscreen. I didn't get any pimples yesterday at all but when I woke up this mo...

Hi there. I don't know about stopping using products. It's not something I've tried myself and whenever I have missed the odd day or 2 without them, I've noticed my acne get worse so it's not somethin...

Hi there. I had something very similar as a teenager. I had several white spots on my upper eye lid and in the area sort of above my eyelids but under my eyebrows. They accumulated throughout my teens...

Salicylic acid hasn't agreed with me so far but I've read up a lot on it recently in my search for a solution. A face wash with salicylic acid won't be on your face long enough to have any effect. It ...

Hi guys. I'm struggling to make decisions here about my skincare products. I have realized there isn't a single cause or cure for my acne. It's caused by a combination of things (hormones, diet, heat,...

Well I have just finished my sample of Paula's Choice oil balancing cleanser for several days. I did get a couple of zits but it's hard to say whether it was or wasn't the cleanser. I have to say tho...

Hi, I tried Finacea for a couple of weeks but I had a very bad reaction and decided to stop. It made my face really red, itchy, scaling and it felt like it was on fire. I also broke out in large infla...
