I have problems with acne. My skin is oily and pores are quite open. I deal with this by using masks and peelings, but nothing helps my acne!  I tried numerous face washes, creams and gels, but nothing really helped me and made my skin better looking. Most of this anti-acne products just made my skin drier, in addition it was peeling off. People, please help me and give me any kind of suggestion for my skin to look better! Please! |

Hello She!
I also had same problems when I was teenager and in my early twenties. My skin started to look better as soon as I stoped smoking. Most of all, I delt with my acne problem when I went to see a doctor. She wasn't dermatologist, however she prescribed me with some pills that I was taking about one month, maybe two. Sorry, but I cannot remember what pills exactly was I taking. What I am trying to say is, if nothing till now helped you, see a doctor! Facial washes or peelings and other anti acne products didn't help me either... I completely understand you - I remember my mom was buying me most expensive cosmetics and products that should made my skin look better... from Manhattan Cosmetics to Vichy... nothing helped me.
Acne are serious medical problem though mostly people see it from esthetic point of view... it is not just not nice to see person with acne (nothing personal!), I am sure people with acne experience pain also, at least I know I did.
My situation improved as soon as I was put on the pills. Hence, see your doctor and maybe you have a case for dermatologist. If you cannot help yourself with proper skin care, ask doctors to help you achieve that better skin you deserve!
Take care!
