To wear it during the day, you would need to mix it in with a moisturizer as it doesn't sit on the skin enough for every day use. I would recommend using Epiduo, letting that dry sufficiently, and th...

I use a salicylic acid toner after cleansing from Lumiplexion. It stays on the skin longer to be more effective. There are three strength levels to help with any irritation from using it. It's grea...

Lumiplexion sunscreen. No white cast, nothing irritating.

What happened to Acne.org's sunscreen moisturizer?

It is true. Can you explain the logic/science behind this? I have also heard to steam the face and "open up the pores" before applying topicals such as salicylic acid so that they penetrate into the...

My esthetician has recommended this for as long as I can remember. People tend to skip that step, but it really does help it absorb better and cuts down on redness as well.

It is true.

With acne prone skin, it is best to use a gel versus a cream. Most creams contain many ingredients that are not good for acne-prone skin. The moisturizing gel I use contains three ingredients, aloe ...

The Cetaphil may be a problem for you. It breaks many people out with whiteheads.

I wanted to just chime in that I agree shea butter is fantastic for the skin. A year or so ago, I would have never thought of putting it on my face. I use it at night after washing my face. I use 1...

Try the Mario Badescu toner in the blue bottle. It does not contain alcohol,but the glycolic will help turn over the cells faster.

Glad you're okay after your injury and hospitalization. My guess on why your skin was much better in the hospital would be the food. They don't give you fast food, soda, etc. You were likely gettin...

You can use the AHA every day if you want or every day is fine. I would suggest using for a month every day and then cutting back a bit once your skin has toned up and you're using it more for mainte...

I use both raw black soap (purchased from Amazon) and SheaMoisture black soap from Walgreens. I like them both. The raw soap does not do well in the shower, so I use the SheaMoisture one in the show...

You can use AHA daily (at night). Make sure you are using at least 30 SPF during the day. I would advise using it without moisturizer if you can. The moisturizer takes away from the effectiveness o...

I used to love the smell of Noxema when I was younger, but it didn't agree with my face. I would suggest buying raw black soap to use as your facial cleanser. You can buy it on Amazon or from some...

What cleanser are you using?

Honestly, we don't know what cavepeople used to wash themselves with. I'm sure they used something other than water. Water cannot take oil or dirt off your face. I would not recommend this method f...

SheaMoisture sells a black soap bar. It is actually black. It's got other ingredients in it other than black soap, like aloe vera. I use both raw black soap and SheaMoisture. Neither break me out....

Try black soap. It has very limited ingredients and no chemicals. I use SheaMoisture black soap, but I do not think they are available in the UK yet. You want to get raw black soap. A $10 bar will...

Have you used Cetaphil before? I never advise buying two Cetaphil products unless you know you're not one of the many that break out in whiteheads from the pore clogging ingredients it uses. Clean...

Two days use is not ample time to give a review. It doesn't break everyone out, but you'll know in a couple weeks if you get a sudden onset of whiteheads.

Actually, anyone using benzoyl peroxide, AHA, sal acid, or anything should strive to find a better SPF if they're going to be in the sun for any length of time. I'm in the sun a lot during the summ...
