:Alright, so i'm fifteen (yes, you may be thinking PUBERTY) but i do have pimples (mild-medium) and get them mostly on my forehead
they are really bad there, and have got some big honkers on the apples of my cheeks i used to have such perfect skin
and do not pick at them or anything, but i hate makeup and hate to wear it it makes my face feel dirty i want to look in the
mirror in teh morning and see NO pimples. I have faith that it will happen someday. I use Neutrogena as a daily clenser along with
Noxema cold cream clenser and they dont improve or make worse my condition i am afraid that if i switch from my normal routine it will get worse
i really want this to clear up, but i dont know what method works best. My skin type is combination and i want to know what works
best for my skin type. I have been on a complexion oral medication called minocyclene and have used retin-a (which left my skin oily and only seemed to
worsen my condition and benzamycin (which does a nice job of drying them up but not making a phenominal difference)
i want to know what kind of things have worked for ppl with combination skin and what things are just a waste of money...
please email me i want help.
btw my camp counselor Ann used proactiv and has a beautiful rosy complexion
