I tried it after reading about it in a magazine a few years ago and now I always keep a tube around. It really works..just a thin layer at night before you go to sleep whenever your skin gets really rebellious. Walgreens brand works really well for me. Good luck!Catherine D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06153038515355539452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506790025177223822.post-89940650645188692622010-05-16T20:31:40.964-05:002010-05-16T20:31:40.964-05:00Hey, have you tried witch hazel??

Thayers is the brand that I like because it is scented (I use the original with aloe). Do not buy plain witch hazel...it smells awful! You can get Thayers at the Vitamin Shoppe over here, but I'm sure you could find it there or order it online. Good luck!Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05242346843877115894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506790025177223822.post-18118368772689272072010-05-16T19:29:04.452-05:002010-05-16T19:29:04.452-05:00Elizabeth- I think your friend is on a medication ...Elizabeth- I think your friend is on a medication called Acutane. I have had friends on that before. It does really work but it is very strong, you have to have severe acne to go on it. My acne is mild to moderate at times and we are too close to baby number 2 to go on anything harsh. So I'm hoping this gentler over the counter stuff will work!MCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282509749949108380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506790025177223822.post-55783295124500498772010-05-16T19:28:25.884-05:002010-05-16T19:28:25.884-05:00Oh I can relate!! I just went to the dermatologis...Oh I can relate!! I just went to the dermatologist a few weeks ago b/c my skin had gotten so bad. I asked her the same question, "WHY am I 24 years old and have the same skin I had at 16?" She said it was a myth that we grow out of acne and I have acne because of the way my skin cells lay and are shaped, not b/c of hormones or stress or dirt. So basically, I will have to deal with it forever. She put me on an antibiotic and retina which does seem to be helping. If you have any luck with your new system please let us know!malloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00590304008625384182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6506790025177223822.post-28968207828498292852010-05-16T07:31:11.937-05:002010-05-16T07:31:11.937-05:00I have a friend with the same prob....and she is n...I have a friend with the same prob....and she is now taking a certain med and it is the only thing that has worked EVER! I know it is a strong med b/c she had to get a pregnancy test twice I think (so many weeks apart) and I believe she has to go in every month to have another pregnancy test before they will give her the prescription. If you want I can ask her the details....in fact I think she blogged it to and I will try to find it and link it to you!The Akins Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03909172715295685225noreply@blogger.com
