You have to remove it really well. Makeup wipes and cleanser. Or double cleanse.

I've been using Epiduo Cream which is BP 2.5% and a retinoid as well, prescription only here. It has made my skin dry too but it's helped a lot with my acne. Make sure you cleanse with something mil...

Sounds hormonal. This used to happen to me, I just kinda grew it of it luckily! Keep an eye on your cycle and when the painful acne appears It's most likely linked. You could try Epiduo as a spot cre...

extremely mild. make sure you wear sunscreen so the marks don't get darker.

I don't know if anyone has suggested it but try washing the sponge with a anti bac facial soap (eg. Protex). Soap it up, keep squeezing and rinsing until it's clean and let it air dry. Also make sure ...

I've never heard of that one before, different doctors vary I'd say. The first pill I ever tried was Levelin which every doctor at the time seemed to be giving away like candy. Hopefully it works for...

Thanks Madeleine! Im going to look into these. Im worried about reactions since i have bad luck with way too many products but i wonder, do you think they might do some extractions without serums? Or ...

Drink prune juice before bed and you'll probably have a nice normal poop in the morning lol. It helps draw water to the bowel. My doctor said the problem with water is sometimes it goes through too qu...

I have a lot more acne popping up on my chin/jaw too I didnt ever think of the flouride connection. I just know it's so good for teeth topically ;(

Sorry for the late reply I had been using my mobile phone for internet and it's very annoying to navigate. Facials are great. Your skin will be assessed first and you also fill out a form to list you...

Yes clearisil lol not clean and clear. They seem like the same to me anyway. I know tell me about it, my hormones are suddenly whack and I always have it... The one week a month I don't have it my ski...

Interesting this could be true because I lately have been getting pimples right in the corner of my mouth. At first I thought it was a cold sore, I showed the pharmacist and he said it looked like a r...

Any birth control that clears acne and doesn't cause weight gain? I am really scared cos I gained 6 kios on Yasmin. I have a tiny frame so it made me look really fat!

Oilygirl1980 I agree. I am suddenly allergic to everything too ! Garnier body lotion I used to use with no problem at all now leaves me with an itchy rash! I have swapped to a body wash designed for p...

yeah it usually only happens to very young babies who are still being breastfed. It could be Milia? Kids quite often get that.

How do I move it to the other forum? I will check out her vids ! Makes you think though doesn't it, here I am too embarrassed to go some places without makeup. And I hate anyone who assumes acne is ...

I know it's old news but have any of you heard of Cassandra Bankson? Inspiring young woman . She didn't let her acne stop her from walking the catwalk at NY fashion week!

I am impressed that the clean and clear is working. I never liked their products that much. I actually use a clay cleanser myself and it's not drying at all. I love it.

Chemical exfoliation is achieved using products containing AHA's and BHA's. Think of the chemicals like little pacmen, they eat up the dead skin cells. Mechanical exfoliation which you see with your s...

You look beautiful, not weird at all . I get the same bumps. I don't think it's that follicular fungus. It's closed comedones. Steaming the skin and very gentle exfoliation has helped mine. Chemical e...

Thanks all . I definitely see acne though and it bugs me! Luckily my treatments are slowly starting to work and the texture is smoothing out. There has certainly been a hormone change of some sort as ...

Your skin looks amazing so clear . My skin is slowly healing and then got a new breakout on the chin. Frustration (Think hormones also). So what is your secret ?

Always use a primer. I use one by Stila it also has an SPF. My foundation is Lancome Teint Idole 24HR (the originaly teint idole was better though !). Revlon Colorstay is way too Orangey! I also rec ...

Why don't you just try a pore minimizer and concealer? Or you could try that mineral powder which everyone uses for scarring...what's it called again? I am sure there are guys who buy that too!
