I use the NYX Studio loose Translucent powder. It's just one ingredient - 100% Silica. I've been using it for a few months now and really like it.

Hi, I took accutane around 7 years ago when I was in high school. 1. The only side effect I remember was getting a small rash on my arms from dryness. I got some body lotion from the drugstore that my...

Have you tried the pill? It worked wonders for me when I suddenly started getting cystic acne as an adult. It might not sound like the best option but if you've already tried everything and you're con...

When I started the pill, the first 2 weeks of the second packet were the worst for me. I got a terrible breakout. It calmed down after that, and then about halfway through the 3rd pack I started seein...

If you are not sexually active then you don't have to! Abstinence is considered a form of birth control so when they ask for your two types of birth control you can just list that and condoms. That's ...

Well it certainly didn't for me lol.  I took it when I was 15 (I'm 23 now) and I'm like the tallest person in my friend group. Even taller than a lot of my guy friends! 

I don't think I know a single person that hasn't had an initial breakout, so I am surprised that your doctor said that! Almost every video, blog, log, etc. of people talking about their experience tha...

Go to the derm! Have your parent/guardian make an appointment for you, it will be much more beneficial than searching the internet. They can help diagnose the type of acne you have and can prescribe y...

If you find a face cleanser you like you don't need to switch away from it! Do you mean how many to use regularly? I have always used 2 different cleansers (one for the morning and one for the night),...

I can relate at least a little, though my skin is not quiet as bad. I caught mine early and went right to the derm. While treating my acne I started to develop mild Seborrheic Dermatitis on my face - ...

Thinking back to when I was in a similar situation to yours, I remember my mom was very reluctant to let me go on accutane at first because she was afraid of the side-effects. But more importantly, sh...

I think you just need to make the leap and get used to him seeing you that way - acne, scars and all. The biggest hurdle is the first time/first few times. The fact that you have brought up your insec...

Hi! From the pic I can't tell that you have active breakouts on the cheek area - did you have a lot of your breakouts there? I ask because when I started using topical creams along my jawline for my a...

I have never tried that one but.... You can also always combine two BB creams together - a lot of people do that to get the right color. I do it to get the right finish (I combine a very matte BB crea...

Have you looked into Spironolactone? A lot of people have taken this medication for their hormonal acne. I'm not sure how it would relate to your condition, but you can always look into it.

The title of this post made me think you were talking about something a LOT more drastic than just taking accutane. Where have you heard of people dying as a direct result of taking it?? I swear, the ...

Hi, have you been to a dermatologist? Also, are you sure it's acne? I'm not a doctor, but the location of it & the look of it is similar to something called "Folliculitis". I would do some resear...

Agree with the first post, you should get to a dermatologist ASAP. Don't waste time searching the internet for answers - going to an actual doc is your best bet. They can give you medicines and/or cre...

Ready to be popped? Popped easily?? I am cringing so hard right now! Isn't it common knowledge by now that you should NEVER pop your pimples?

Hey! I can kind of relate to you. Once I cleared up my acne from high school, I was fine for years and years after that. Didn't follow any special diet or skin care regimen or anything. In fact, I was...

Well if you've been putting off going to the doc and you are still struggling with it, your best bet would be to get yourself straight to the dermatologist! External skincare and treatments are import...

I am just curious to see how other people do their regimens. What order do you do apply your products? How do you apply them? How long do you wait in between each step? Any big mistakes you've made a...

I've been looking into that recently as a lot of people have said it helps with oil production! I am taking a generic brand of ortho tri-cyclen. How long after staring birth control did you add in the...

I agree with the above post. I have tried the Thayers Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera. Even though it is alcohol free, witch hazel can still cause irritation because of it's high tannin content. It caused ...
