The Placebo Effect
Nexus replied to El Sol's topic in Over-the-counter acne medications and products
The placebo effect is very interesting w/ respect to acne...but I think positive thinking coupled with a good diet and a healthy lifestyle is what's really important -
Hey jerry, i just tried eating lemons last night and right now, there is NO REDNESS on my face at all! / Thanks for the tip, worked perfectly for me. (I also used some aloe vera gel, but the lemons definitely cleared up some redness before i put on the gel)

There is just like a field of red there, that doesn't seem to go away. I'm pretty sure its not any abnormal skin condition like rosatia (sp?) or anything like that...
