clear up my skin

I added pure Jojoba oil to my regiment on the advice of people on acne.org. Jojoba oil isnt really an oil but a plant wax, from what I understand. Each morning after I wash my face with the Dr. Bronners peppermint soap, I add 2 drops to my damp face and pat dry. Then I lightly splash water on my face and pat dry again. The jojoba oil has made my skin tone more even, smooth, and is fading some of the red marks. I never dreamed I could get my skin this clear! If this keeps up Im marking it off my list.

I bought Beta-sitoserol tablets and zinc gluconate tablets…guess what? I am about 70% clearer than I was before! It worked quick, within a day I could begin to see the difference. Also, the redness has disappeared, I guess since one of those is an anti-inflammatory.
I am a 24/f had acne for 10 years, small whiteheads and overall bad texture and blotchiness. Doesnt sound that bad but I have a lot of scarring, and they were extremely persistant. Oh, another thing that works- baking soda, it will bring your whiteheads to the surface so that they can be exhumed :)
Next I am going to try Vitamin A, and some sort of topical (perhaps zinc oxide). I have heard that mega-dosing with Vitamin B5 is also effective, but can be dangerous.

So I bought Clearogen lotion from over the internet and guess what? It Works! It works really well actually. I stopped using it for a week and my skin went back to shitty. I know now that my acne is hormone related, and has to be attacked both topically and from the inside. Still, I will not take birth control pills, I have taken them before and it was horrible (yes, even on “low dose”). The only things left are:

Spiroalcatone
Beta-sitoserol
Some type of other hormone type thing

Both of these block DHT, which is the cause of acne and hair loss. Beta-sitoserol is available OTC, so I am going to try that.

Just a tip: Use Head and Shoulders Shampoo as a face wash…it works really well and leaves no residue!
