I just got home from the 4 day festival I went to (Bonnaroo! )! It was super fun and my face literally became super clear after the first day. I'm not sure why. Anyway....I felt so good not worrying...

being told to kill yourself because you are so ugly isn't just my twisted perception of the world. it actually physically happened to me. a person actually felt like they had the right to tell me that...

Another incident just occurred to me, I offered to do my sisters make up for their night out and they sneered and said something along the lines of 'erm, no cos look at how you put yours on, I don't w...

I am a 31 year old female, had acne for 20 years Prior to accutane in 2003 it was quite severe, now it is more moderate at the times when my skin does get bad. Never had a filling or a cavity, my t...

Feeling much better today and yesterday, skin has calmed down a little. I wore my MAC foundation last night to go to a dinner party and for the first time in ages felt quite good about my skin, it see...

  I have had thousands of very cruel comments, some I have written on here, one more that just popped into my head... A guy from work asked me why I bothered wearing eye make up and lip gloss ...

Been through this, I seldom had sleepovers in my youth, and when I did it would be really stressful thinking how I must not be seen without make up at all costs. I used to take my make up off only aft...

Do you get acne when you don't get enough sleep? I went abroad and I had to wake up early and slept for like 4 hours and then the other day I was all tired, pink and feeling like its gonna result I ac...

My newest outbreak is worse than I thought, in the bathroom mirror last night before my shower I counted over 40 blemishes on my cheeks/jaw - of those, at least 15 are very active. WTF happened? Just ...

You are so lovely, wishing you all the best for the future!

I don't feel pretty. Haven't updated my pictures on Facebook since last January, because I just don't feel like publishing the photoshoped ones - people are not fooled so easily and can tell the diff...

Had a pretty bad jawline outbreak these last two days, the spots really itch! Have been feeling happier that my husband now knows all about how I've struggled with my skin, he still insists that acne...

Hey, I've also been one of the lucky ones, I haven't really had any harsh comments...but I live in the UK so maybe that's a factor? I have had my family make comments like 'wow you've been going at yo...

  Feeling much happier - I TOLD MY HUSBAND ABOUT MY ACNE ON FRIDAY!!! For those of you who don't know, I had hidden my acne condition from him since we met as I was so ashamed, but couldn't hi...

Hi there, I totally know where you're coming from with this. I have moved around quite a bit in my life, most recently from UK - USA which of course has been the biggest transition. Not sure I can off...

  Feel like a complete emotional mess, and extremely angry at myself. I sat down with my husband last night with the intention of telling him my acne story, but no words would come out. We sat ...

Hi hun, I know how you feel and it is hard, as well as being difficult to not think about your skin and not assume people are judging you on that. Oh, wish I had something more helpful to say but curr...

I am two hours away from NYC! Is everyone still up for doing this?

Yes that's it! Having acne just feels like a sick joke sometimes, especially when you see a load of clear skinned folk abusing their bodies yet we have to do all this to try and fight acne.

Also - girls (and guys for that matter) do you hate how with acne, you cannot be spontaneous with anything? If I am invited out I require a few hours notice so I can get myself looking presentable, t...
