So helpful! I go to the gyno every six months and I always ask about ones that would help with my acne and he always pushes the topic aside and gave me a prescription for Mircette. After reading the ...

Apples are always hard on my stomach - my having stomach issues and acne go hand in hand. I would find it extremely strange if I had just a skin reaction to a food but not an internal reaction... The...

Having sensitive skin I loveeeee grapeseed oil. Truthfully I read somewhere that Emma Stone used it because it was the only thing gentle enough for her skin so I had to find out first hand and I fell ...

Personally my skin loves Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion which you can buy in the pharmacy section of Boots stores. And how! I hated their cleanser and steered clear from them for a while but found th...

:\ Awww. Have you tried zinc and d3 and all that other good stuff? Or were you thinking it's hormonal? If you're worried about oily skin I would try drinking Bigelow's Mint Medley tea. It might sound...

Do you use Tea Tree Oil at its full strength? (I recommend diluting it if not - with grapeseed oil - it's great for sensitive skin) Try not to stress about it, it will only make matters worse. Just ...

I too am gluten sensitive (not Celiac - most aren't anyhow). My acne did not change a whole lot cutting out the gluten. If you do not have any sort of digestive issues.. please do not cut gluten from ...

I would say it's pretty light. There is a purging stage with BP, and in some it can take quite some time. So hang in there! You don't look bad at all. I have a lot more hyperpigmentation and you're lu...

What kind of makeup are you wearing? Have you checked to see if there are any comedogenic (or acne-inducing) ingredients in them? I'm sorry you're struggling! But you're not alone, and you're definit...

Thank you everyone! I have since looked on Amazon and you are all right that it seems to be fairly easy to get hold of the Bioderma brand in the UK (I'd never heard of it so had no idea it was French)...

Oils can make or break your skin. I've tried several oils (commercial moisturizers just weren't doing well for me) and about 5 drops of rose-hip oil after washing and about 30 minutes after my treatme...

Does this one look any good?

I'm so happy to hear you found what works for you!!! I've been dairy free for a month and I still have a lot of clogged pores, but nothing as severe as I used to get! Also, too much sugar can spike...

AGH!! I've had the exact same issue. I used ocm somewhat regularly (ie. more or less every day) back in May and the beginning of June. I noticed more and more clogged looking pores around my mouth but...

Olive oil breaks me out like no other. I don't know how your skin can handle it. Personally, I like grapeseed oil. And I've never had any good results when using sulphur either. I usually get flesh c...

Hmm, that is interesting. I know it can help flush your system in some ways. But alcohol is toxic in the bloodstream, so that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I couldn't tell you from experience be...

Baking soda is great as a gentle exfoliant 1-2 times a week. But no, not baking powder. It should come in a box, about 80 cents or so.

Please don't use African soap. I fell in love with it for about 3-4 months and realized it was doing more harm than good. Try something gentler. And yes, coconut oil can irritate the skin. The only o...

I never stay consistent with it!!! I'm always afraid I'm screwing with my enamel! Maybe if I take it like a shot? Haha Have you tried apple cider vinegar? It does the same thing, and is better at bal...

I moved states, and am temporarily without health insurance. Between that and being concerned with some health risks associated with Yaz, I decided to use this time to see if I can clear up my (cystic...

I personally use Target Brand's Up & Up... I also love the Simple wipes (the non-exfoliating ones obviously). Both are gentle. I've tried plenty that broke me out (ESPECIALLY say yes to cucumbers...

So, I am not sure if this should be posted in the prescription section or the OTC section, and forgive me if this is incorrect. I'm considering purchasing an OTC blue-light therapy device to help wit...

I wouldn't take aloe vera pills or buy that spray with a bunch of ingredients in it... plain and simple (and less pricy) just use 100% pure aloe vera juice. You can find it on Amazon and I'm sure othe...

Ooooooh.. you use the African soap... with NO moisturizer? I don't know how you could do that. It's too drying for me. I stopped using that kind of soap after about two months of using it and more per...

Hey Zefferson, you replied to my "Aloe Vera" topic awhile ago and I have been using the Aloe Vera since then. My face has been more under control but still not doing so great. Still frustrated, I am l...
