Do you buy the kefir or make it? Is it liquid or powder?

Try putting apple cider vinegar on it several times a day and keep us posted.

I've used Lumiplexion for 25 years. I've never found another sunscreen that didn't break me out.

I would try applying apple cider vinegar/water (ratio 50/50) to the area with a cotton ball two or three times a day for a couple days to see if it helps bring it out.

A picture would help. It is most likely just the healing process.

Acne takes longer than a few weeks to clear up. Give it a couple months.

What's your miracle product, Lizzy?

Sulfur is the best alternative to BP. My daughter washes with black soap and uses Lumiplexion sulfur clearing medication. She had moderate acne at one point, and her marks are all but gone. It does...

Thank you, DeLovely. I am glad to hear your son is having success on the Acne.org regimen. Dan's program is great for many people. It's just not comprehensive enough to work for everybody at every...

'04 would be 11 years and way past expiration. If you mean '14, it should be fine.

Acne is. first and foremost, genetic. It runs in my family pretty strong. My three sisters and I had it and all our respectful kids have run into it as well. It doesn't matter what you eat, if it's ...

You home-schooled for that acne? You may need some psychological help more than acne help.

Go to Lumiplexion dot-com and email her your situation, products you're using, and a couple photos of your skin. She is in the US, and shipping will cost you more; but she will put you on the road to...

It's actually the product. It balls up.

Highly recommend black soap versus almost any store facial cleanser with tons of chemicals that strip your skin. We liquefy the black soap into a pump bottle. One bar would last a person a whole ye...

Sulfur is great for acne. Not as fast-acting as BP, but effective. My daughter cannot use BP and has been on sulfur for about four years now. Be careful what you buy in the store. She tried a few ...

My son had that happen to a pimple on his nose. He started putting apple cider vinegar on it, and it has gotten much smaller. The bump was on his nose for over a month and not going away. Try the a...

Lumiplexion has a light moisturizer that will not break you out. It is mostly aloe vera. Their sunscreen also has a light moisturizer in it and most of the time I just use the sunscreen and no additio...

If you've read these boards at all, you would know diet is not a cure for acne. Diet has almost no effect on some people's acne. Really your gut has nothing to do with acne. It is a hormonal issue a...

What topical products are you using?

If you're using the BP twice a day and are extremely dry, cut back to using it only at night.

The scrub would negate the no treatment part of it. My advice would be not to do the caveman approach. You face will accumulate dirt and oils. Water will not clean this. You're subjecting yourself...

If you feel you need to wash your face, do it, but only use the BP twice a day. It won't hurt if you only get a few hours of BP in the morning. BP is most effective in the first few hours anyway. M...

I would recommend unrefined shea butter to heal your skin at night. It heals and will help with the redness. It should not clog your pores.

The Oil of Olay line is not for acne sufferers, despite Dan's recommendations.
