I had pretty moderate acne as a teen, I
had very oily skin, the only thing i found
that helped and basically deminished it is
Lever 300 (the green one with ALOE) and
hibiclense I use the lever every day a few
times a day when my skin feels slightly
oily and the hibiclense when i have a
breakout (around my period) Both have
worked so well!!!!!!!!!!! I love
lever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi. I had acne since I was about 13. Tried
antibiotics and topical creams/gels, you
name it. Not awful acne, but annoying
nonetheless.
Finally, about 6 months ago, I consulted a
dermatologist, who put me on DUAC gel. My
spots are totally gone, have been for a
few months now. I recommend it!

I started proactive again, just to see
how it would go this time. Suprisingly, it
is helping a lot. I have very severe acne.
It has started drying out the bumps and my
skin is really dry right now. I have some
eucerin lotion for facial skin that is
helping the dry skin... lol the proactive
plus the lotion seems to be working.
Everyone, make you guys are using
Non-comadegenic-lotions and makeups. I
hope that spelling is right. It does not
clog your pores.

In 1978, as a teen, I was fighting acne. I
found instant relief with a certain
oatmeal soap - and used it exclusively
until 1995 - when Johnson and Johnson
grabbed up the small company (Aveeno) and
changed that soap for the worse.Yuck. I
won't touch that product again. Needless
to say, I was bummed and bumpy and itchy
again for the last 13 years - but just
found the remedy. My skin is finally
healing! Just take some organic oatmeal,
stick it in a coffee grinder until fine.
Soak in a bath, then spread an oatmeal
paste over the afflicted areas. Use a
loofah with the paste to exfoliate, rinse.
Use peroxide on remaining stubborn healing
pimples. I swear....I haven't been this
happy in 13 long years. My skin is soft
and clean feeling, even my boyfriend is
amazed.
Try it. Forget soap and promises from
bogus products.

You need a prescription in order to obtain
Accutane. Your doctor will need to
monitor your health throughout your
treatment, which will last about 6 months.
Accutane is a serious drug that can come
with some serious side effects.
Your liver will be tested before, during
and after treatment and if you are female
you will be required to be on two forms of
birth control. This is due to the high
potential of birth deformities or death to
your baby.
It's Powerful medicine and helped me a
lot. Accutane improved my complexion by
about 60%. My experience wasn't 100%
positive..
You too will get control of your acne
!
Good luck

Hi,
Enfys you need to see a Dermatologist. As
tempting as it can be DO NOT PULL or BUST
anything on your face. You run the risk
of infection and scarring. Your
Dermatologist will have the proper sterile
equipment to do what is necessary.
Everything will be OK, but your must see a
Dermatologist.
Good luck,
msloretta

Great Solution for Acne Posted: 07-05-08 00:36am
Hi, I recently visited Malaysia which is
such a beautiful country. I’ve been
having sensitive oily skin which resulted
in acne all over my face ever since I was
a teenager and no matter what I did to my
face, nothing seemed to help at all.
Imagine my surprise when I chanced upon
Rosa T and gave it a go. I could see
immediate improvements within days of
usage. Never have I been so satisfied or
amazed by any beauty products before!
Before I left for England, I purchased as
much as my luggage could carry. I
recommend anyone with sensitive skin and
acne problem to try Rosa T. It can be
purchased online nowadays at http://www.acne-treatment.cc.
