I worry that my child will grow up to have acne

It's not a given that you could pass it on. Nobody in my family seems to even get a single pimple, yet I've had acne for 13 years. I don't think it has to come from somewhere, so equally, there's eve...

I can't deal with this anymore. It's time to move on.

If you're of the opinion that the products you use and the approach you have taken isn't working, there's nothing to lose by quitting the products and changing your approach.   It does feel like ...

Pretty much the polar opposite compared to when I last posted. Got a couple of pimples and the odd scar from when I picked about a week ago, but no big deal at all. Considering the amount I picked, ...

The time has come the Walrus said.

Best of luck with it all!   From from I've seen, you look great as you are, but I get why you'd want to be totally free from the whole acne thing after so long, once and for all. I was in the s...

Not as good as it's been lately, a little broken out. It's a post-weekend thing. As ever, I spent the weekend having late nights, sleeping until until lunch, and ate almost nothing but junk. It's as ...

Clearest I've been for 13 years. A couple of scars left, but no active acne. Not even a single pimple. I guess this is a result of the changes I've made to regimen and diet, it's just kind of thrown m...

Back acne scars have ruined my life

I can't relate to the back acne situation as it's never been a problem for me. In fact, if my face was like the rest of my body, I'd have never had a single pimple!   I'd imagine that the differe...

Face redder than body: EXFOLIATION (before/after)
