Avatar f tn There is no one right answer for everyone. Tips for dry skin won't help oily skin, and vice versa. Is there a specific issue you are trying to address with your skin care routine?
492921 tn?1321289896 I suffered from acne from age 15-19, it was miserable... and I get it sometimes now (I'm almost 24 weeks pregnant)... I didn't notice any major skin changes after my m/c last year but it makes sense. Your hormones may still be a little off. Acne usually doesn't start in your mid-late 20's; if you have it it's usually temporary. So don't worry about having it permanently or anything.
Avatar n tn is she oily? to much skin oils being let out of the skin cause acne, to avoid that sometimes its best to stay away from foods that cause tyhe skin to release oil like fish, the omega3 does it. other people have dry flakey skin cause they dont get their bodies to produce enough oils, in that case just buy some omega3 pills at the pharmacy. taste like vanilla, pills kinda big need to be taken with food, but no side affects..
Avatar n tn Acne during pregnancy is normal although I don't have any tips on what to do. I don't think there is much since its cause by hormones.
9889855 tn?1412479178 I was wondering if anyone has any tips for acne. I broken out pretty much everywhere. Mainly my chest. Does anyone have any tips for body acne?
Avatar f tn Do not use proactive. It makes your skin dependent on it and when you stop your acne will come back much worse. I use a wash cloth and gently scrub my face with soap. Dove and Olay work the best for me, don't over dry the skin. Then I pat dry and put Clean and Clear Persa Gel, works wonders! If my face gets dry, which it does every time the season change, I use Burt's Bees Res-Q Ointment. Burt's Bees also works beautifully on vanishing past acne scars.
Avatar f tn My Husband since I first got with him has always hated his skin he gets acne breakouts all the time, and now He has started to get boils or some type of bumps of his thigh. He has tried proactive, Green tea tree oil, and sea breeze. Yet all those things seemed to make his issues worst and they stayed bad and never seem to be clearing anything up so he stopped usage. He is tired of these skin issues and feeling very insecure because of them.

Avatar f tn Hi, Acne vulgaris (commonly called acne) is a skin disease caused by changes in the pilosebaceous units (skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland). A blackhead (medically known as an open comedo, is a yellowish or blackish bump or plug on the skin. A blackhead is a type of acne vulgaris. It is caused by excess oils that have accumulated in the sebaceous gland's duct.
304970 tn?1331425994 re having such a hard time w/acne. I suffered from severe acne from age 16-19 and it was really difficult. I still get bad breakouts at 25 and, now that I'm pregnant, things aren't any better! I can tell you a few tips that I used back in the day, and that I use now: - Always use a clean towel to pat (don't rub) your face dry after washing. I keep a stack of clean washcloths on the counter just for drying and use a new one every night. - Don't wash more than twice a day.
Avatar f tn I see posts for acne remedies but I dont have acne atm. Instead I have insane amounts of zits. And they are huge! What are good remedies for those?
Avatar f tn Castor oil is amazing on your skin, it pulls them right out! Look up castor oil cleaning for your skin. Wish I found this stuff before years of worthless toxic rxs!
Avatar f tn Just wanted to see if anyone has a good acne remedy safe for pregnancy. Any over the counter cleaners/creams that have worked for you? Please share, thank you!

Avatar f tn , appt today, and was hoping for some feed back before then maybe some tips to tell the doctor, she has a rash on the side of her checks, and I. Her neck line where her skin in exposed to the air, the rash is really bad at some points, and sometimes it looks like its almost fine, say we put her down for a nap, and she sleeps 3 hrs, its still there but can't really notice it, but at her baby shower, getting passed around.... I noticed when we got home it was horrible !!!
Avatar f tn Hey, in the beginning of my pregnancy I was also suffering from hormonal pregnancy acne and I continued to maintain a good skin routine and find that it's really helped keep the acne at bay. I still have some spots but not nearly and many as at first. I wash my face morning and night with a gentle cleanser and then exfoliate 3 times a week with a scrub or exfoliating gel. I also change my pillow cases and wash my makeup brushes regularly.
Avatar f tn I have been using ACV and mineral water mix as a toner on my face. I use about 1 part vinegar and 3 parts mineral water or just plain water works too. I have been working out a lot and that normally gives me acne, but much less with the ACV/mineral water mix. Also I read on Pinterest that if you take 3 Tablespoon of ACV it helps burn fat, so I'm doing that too, but also eating well and exercising, so no proof if ACV works for that!
Avatar n tn Hello, Acne is due to an overactivity and plugging of the oil glands.The main cause of acne is increased levels of hormones during adolescence. Acne usually lasts until age 20 or even 25. It is rare for acne to leave any scars unless picked. Just keep you face clean by washing with a mild soap atleast twice a day.Pat it dry and do not rub it.Avoid picking or pressing the acne.You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime.
Avatar f tn I am now 9 weeks and my acne is awful. Cyst like, hard, painful ones that take weeks to go away! Now I can't use my retinA cream. Anyone else have tips to relieve this?
