i have had acne scars for about a year and i hate it it really lowers my self esteem and i hate mirrors, i look at my scars and remember those painfull memories, the deppression that it caused. When my skin was good i could get girls in a click of a finger and now girlz look at me and just see a hidious beast its really upsetting :(

me and my mom went to a local drug store and i told the women what scars i have and wateva and she reccomended a product named bio oil?

i brought it and i wanna try it out

if u have a story like me plz tell or any advice?

I have acne and i have tried over the counter products, and even Proactiv, which it helped for the first year but after that it dint. I also have a very irregular periods. So should i go to the women doctor, What are they going to do? can i just ask for birth control pills to regulate my perios? is that going to help get rid of my acne…………Please help?

I have never been a fan of liquid foundation or pressed powder for that matter, until I noticed funds were a little low and that buying a cheaper, generic brand as opposed to the higher priced mineral foundations, was more acceptable. I wish I hadn’t. I had chosen to purchase Cover Girl Clean Sensitive Skin Liquid and matching Pressed powder hoping for minimal to mild coverage. Oh my God, was I in for a surprise. After lightly applying this foundation, within four hours red blister-like bumps began to appear on my jawline and facial area. My skin bear in mind has been acne free since I was 15 years old; I only wear foundation to minimize my rosacea. After removing the product from my face as quickly as possible, I assumed the worst was over, and to treat these bumps with a noxzema mask and an application of Aloe Vera gel. I soon went to bed with my hubby, and awoke the next morning to huge blisters all over my face, filled with a clear liquid. The bumps are warm to the touch and feel swollen. I immediately called Covergirl only to discover four other women, myself not included had called regarding the same product with similar symptoms. How wonderful, eh? A refund for the cosmetics was all that was offered, and a pharmacist was of no help at the local CVS for an over the counter medication referral. Has anyone experienced similar symptoms regarding cosmetics? Suggestions as to what medications may help are greatly appreciated. I have never felt so embarrassed in my life, nor do I feel comfortable having my husband look at me.
Thanks so much.
Yours Truly,

Basically I had wonderful skin through high school and my first two years of college and all of a sudden, I started to get mild acne – something that has continued for over a year. I have no idea why- I havent switched face products and my diet hasnt change either– is there a reason this happens? is it common among women? thanks!!!
Not on the pill, wash my pillow case regularly and I dont believe it is exezema. My skin has become much more oily… you may be right about the hormonal thing.

Anybody who has actually used the product please let me know how it works, are there any other good acne medications? Does ProActive work for both men and women?

does anyone use this product. i am a grown women with acne . and i use it but it never takes it away but just controls it. anyone else?
