Not sure about this idea. I'm on a regular dating site at the moment and I feel really guilty because my skin problems don't really show up in my photos - I kind of feel like a fraud. When the girls m...

I don't suppose isolated instances, extracting pimples as and when they form, would be considered as picking. Not in a negative way like a habit or something. I guess the key thing there is to not g...

Glad to hear things are going so well. Congratulations on your exam result, too!

My sister suggested I try dating sites, and someone I know who met his wife on one has been raving about them lately. My sister suggested two so I decided to try them out. So far, nobody has seen fit...

Looking good, Kaydon! Hopefully you'll be able to curb the picking eventually. Never know, maybe you'll totally clear up first and then there won't be anything to pick anyway. Of course, this is ...

Glad to hear things are going well and you've found what generally keeps you clear.   I don't suppose the odd spot is really a big deal but I can appreciate how it not might feel that way for an...

I read an article about online dating a few days ago and it gave examples of sites that were more specific to certain hobbies, situations, etc.. There were sites aimed at people who had an interest in...

Awesome results! Congratulations!

Been a while since I looked at some logs, thought I'd check in.   Was just reading about the experience with the nutritional response testing. Sounds... interesting. I never placed much signi...

I was kind of thinking about the weather actually and how my skin used to react. Really used to hate summer because I'd want to hide away most of the time and not feeling like I could enjoy it would o...

I used it maybe five or six years ago. Well, it took me about thirty seconds to realise the treatment and so on was way too harsh for my skin, but I liked the scrub. That was the best exfoliating wa...

what triggers your acne? I took an intolerance test and also got details of some deficiencies. I altered my diet as per the intolerances: decreased dairy, yeast, gluten alcohol and spicy foods...

The only thing that is depressing me at the moment is that it is my 19th birthday in 2 days and although I'm excited for my birthday, It marks another year with acne and I'll be having horrible skin f...

Looks like things are going well. Good to see!

So, I went to see my dentist today and, even though I'm a little broken out and my skin's rather dry - something which feels a million times worse once you've opened your mouth as wide as is possible ...

Not scared to go, but I'm terrified of the bill he usually gives me afterwards. I've got to go tomorrow actually and I think I'm going to need some work doing. No doubt he'll want to charge me a for...

feeling really down today, broke down in tears yesterday. Was diagnosed with PCOS, with acne being one of the symptoms so at least I know its all hormonal. My meds are making my skin burn, feel like i...

Feeling low today... I met one of my boyfriend's friends that keeps inviting him to things and she's absolutley gorgeous and actually does modelling. Her skin is entirely clear unlike my PIH ridden fa...

The past 5 years have been horrible, what's worse is feeling so alone about it all. Your friends say things like 'You can hardly see them' or 'there's nothing there' but you know how you look. I spent...

Great progress. Nice smile too! Not too sure what to make of the bumps on your skin which you mentioned. The only thing I can think of is Keratosis Pilaris. I get it on my elbows and knees and th...

I'm so upset. I just came back from the derm who was a total bitch and just dismissed me. First they made me change into a hospital gown (why is this even necessary) and she said my GP shouldn't have ...

Most people, can 'afford" to make small mistakesbut those of us with acne, whatever you do shows up on your face like a scarlet letter. I agree, having acne has made me a healthier person and more com...

I'd never paid much attention to the whole diet-acne-connection until I took an intolerance test and the changes I made because of that cleared my skin. I knew there was a connection, but I guess I n...

Somebody posted on their blog a few days ago about having a lump appear around the neck area and swelling along the jawline, think they were about as far along on the Accutane course as you. So there...
