I understand how living with mild or moderate acne and seeing someone with one spot complaining can make you feel bitter inside - the same way I feel when my friends point out their single tiny pimple...

Wore a whole bunch of foundation today (I wanted the confidence boost as I was in lots of new situations today) and got a self inflicted spot for my efforts. Hopefully it'll have died down by tomorrow...

My breakout has gone away and I'm clear again. It's going to be a pain having to fade the new hyper pigmentation (I just got rid of the last lot!) but I'm really glad this wasn't a long term relapse.

My acne has gone and I'm clear again. Now I just need to wait for this new hyper pigmentation to fade.

I've begun taking Saw Palmetto to regulate my cycles and help deal with some PCOS symptoms from excess androgens.

Somebody's dead and the only thread about it is saying how wrong they were? Seriously? Have some respect.

ClearZit is fairly harsh but Ok if you've been on BP for a while. It also happens to be cheap compared to some other alternatives and available in the US or the UK.

Keep in mind that people do sometimes get 1 or 2 blemishes, and that these blemishes aren't actually acne but small normal breakouts. Your skin looks great.

I also get lots of spots near my temples. I always assumed it was just my hair, but now I'm curious - I wonder what causes them?

It's been a year since I began this regimen now. I currently have one active on my forehead and 5 small dark bumps on the lower part of my left cheek that are almost flat. Overall my skin is much clea...

Had a relapse on only the left side of my face. It's going away now but for a while I talked to people on a slight angle to show my 'better' side

Been dealing with a relapse on the left side of my face these last few weeks; most likely from picking at one or two spots. The breakout is drying up and going away now but I still have some bumps nex...

I'm finally at the stage now where I can get a spot and not have to worry about it all day or cover it up with makeup.

My mum has this and coconut oil applied to the area once a day has worked wonders for it.

Thankyou! It's still not 'perfect', but then again, what is? There are two main things that helped the most: Duac and not picking. I had mild acne, which was threatening to become more moderate as I...

Considering I've: washed my face with hand soap, worn makeup for a full day, ate more junk food this week than ever in my life and slept for approximately 5 hours a day, I think I can safely say my cu...

My hormones have settled back into a normal routine again and my skin's looking a lot better, just one active on my face at the moment, the rest just appears to be temporary PIH.

He's been with you for this long with the acne - why would it bother him now?

I use BP to control my mild acne. I only use it occasionally though; I don't seem to break out from not using it for a while.

Breakout has calmed down a bit. The redness is fading off in some areas and the texture is getting a bit smoother again. The Duac seems to have helped last night. Then again, my body's using a lot of ...

Look up the long hair community, there's a lot of good advice about hair growth there. As for skin, try looking up rosacea.

There's two main issues in the OP that I'd like to address. 1) Feeling other people deserve better. You do not control other people and their desires and wishes, and thus are not responsible for thos...

Got a back-to-Uni breakout going on at the moment - a few dried up spots here and there and 3 bumps on my cheek. As annoying as it is it's pretty normal for the sudden stress, wavering diet and freshe...

Got a little back-to-Uni breakout going on - a few tiny spots here and there that have dried up and will hopefully be gone soon and about 3 bumps on my cheek. I'm not picking at them, letting them bre...

Going in too heavy-handed when you only have mild acne - ie using far too many and too harsh treatments for your severity.
