Lol...really?
Honestly if you have bad acne go to a dermatologist, he can prescribe a much stronger dose of acne ointment...and if that doesn't work they also have medicine that can help you.
Now the dermatologist didn't help my acne at all, but neither did any of the shit I bought over the counter soo if you tried dermatologist and he didn't help. Don't expect that stuff to, because its most likely the same crap/no frills brand/lesser dosage then what the quack doctor gave ya.
Honestly everyone is different when it comes to how/what effects their acne. Me I found once I stopped drinking soda and stuck to water and juices my face cleared up a little bit.
If your skin is really oily like mine was, I used a water/salt mixture in a spray bottle which actually helped dry it out ALOT. I sprayed it on my face in about the middle of the day and let it dry. That was only a temp fix because my face would produce more oil to stop the salt haha.
Because I was desperate/fed up with all the bullshit I bought (proactive/clearasil/almost every other bullshit over the counter drug) I did nothing for about 2 weeks. Washed my face only in the shower and didn't put any of that bullshit on it. My face turned to shit for the first week (insane amounts of oil, shinny, mad pimples) after that though it started clearing up. My face wasn't as oily as it was, wasn't really dry because I wasn't scrubbing the oil off my face anymore.
Honestly this guy's a salesman, look at some of the words/phrases he uses. "This doesn't do that because this product uses several ingredients to work in harmony on your skin."
Remember there isn't just one medicine that works for everyone like that. Different things make different people tick when it comes to your body...Just don't wanna see you guys get ripped off.
Try:
- Spray bottle with salt water in it (if your really oily)
- Dry skin don't do much. Try a light layer fragranceless lotion on your face in the morning. (fragrance has like perfume in it, no good for skin)
- Soap in general fucks up my skin, try not using soap on your face for a bit. Especially the stuff that has a smell to it
- Don't drink a lot of soda, try not to drink any actually. I stick to water/apple juice/Gatorade mostly.
- Cut way down on fast food
- Sun, sun helps my face out alot. Helped dry it out but not too much. also got a tan which helps dry out the acne itself and hide the blemishes.
- stick to something for atleast a week, because its not going to work right away, and sometimes it'll get worse before it gets better like mine did trust me.
- Try other shit that would seem like it wouldn't work (only reason it seems like it wouldn't work is because of the way society is) Example: Soap fucks up my face really bad ( you would think soap is clean so its great for skin)...Then again Dirt/sand fine (now when you think dirt and sand you say that shit is dirty, that's no good. . .but honestly who says its dirty haha?). I would take like beach sand in my hand and rub my face with it. Exfoliates the skin lol. Be unconventional, and remember shit that they're selling on tv is what they "selling" on tv. If they're not convincing they won't get buyers.
Now I'm not telling you to be a grime ball, just cut down on scrubbing your face because I know you are. Just let your face do its thing, it can't do its job if your adding outside
products...your just confusing it.
I can post pictures of my face now and before about 7 months ago to show you guys too if you want.
