Best Skin/Acne Masks...

[xAsh]

Hi all, hope you're well.

I'm 21 and still got acne, tried all the clearisil, tablets etc and it doesnt work. Im now looking for some good facial masks that can help control acne/get rid of it somewhat.

I understand that my acne will never completely go, but aslong as it's under control a bit more that's the main thing.

Has anyone got a good reccomendation of what they put on their skin before bed etc?

Thank you

I'm more than double your age and still bothered with the darned acne. I've tried all sorts of creams, lotions and potions. Try your GP for a recommendation to Dermatology for Roaccutane. Strong drug and can only be prescription. Doseage depends on your weight etc. I was on it for a year and effects have been pleasantly noticeable. Hasn't cured it but I am very pleased with the improvement. Good luck :D

I'll try that!

i wld suggest that you carry out the following everyday, first thing every morning drink one large glass of warm water
to that add half of fresh lemone juice, and one tsp honey and a pinch of cinomon powder, it is a way of cleansing
our internal, the lemon will give a jump start to the liver, you will see results, all i wld say is stick to it religously, honey/cinomon are good for many things, google it and you shall have a better insite to the above, GOOD LUCK

I know you can get something from the doctors that looks like an under arm deodrant roller, but my friend suffered with really bad acne, was prescribed this and has no acne or scarring

My sister had acne and has tried everything. Roaccutane made her really dry (including skin, mouth and inside nose) and didnt solve it long-term. She also tried the pill, and various tretinoin creams with some success. Eventually she was referred to a dermatologist who had a number of options for her to try. The most successful so far has been light therapy that she receives at the hospital. I think it is trial and error in treating this, but the key is consistency and to try each treatment for an adequate length of time. I dont think the problem can be solved overnight but their are many options for you to try.

Salt dries skin and eradicates serrabim (oil). Its also a cortiriser and disinfectant to heal abrasions. Athletes foot powder is a dry disinfectant powder & controls fungals.

Use every night:
a: salt rinse
b: pat dry
c: apply foot powder

Hi, you dont say if you are male or female, but for girls, going on the right contraceptive pill can help clear up acne.
Worth speaking to the doctor about.

Tambo
*sebum* is the oil
salt does not *cauterise*, the only things that could do that are acids or red hot items such as soldering iron, metal item heated in flames... etc.
Acne is not caused by fungal infections so putting athletes foot powder on it would be pointless.

Try using salicylic acid brush it on clean skin, leave for 3-5 minutes then rinse off with clean, cold water.
