Ever since I've went to college four hours away, my skin has completely went haywire. I have had my acne under control for years now, but suddenly I have pock marks on my cheeks and these AWFUL wrinkles under my eyes, forehead, and now woke up literally overnight with them between my eyebrows. I don't know what's going on with my skin and I have over a month before an appointment with a dermatologist. I'm only nineteen, and I've taken good care of skin for years.
1. I use sunscreen everyday for about six years now. Along with eyecream, moisturizer, and even tazorac, which is suppose to be good for aging? I use masks once every two weeks, and my mia. I exfoliate and cleanse my face, whole nine yards.
Its just getting worse. What's wrong with my skin? Someone pleaseeee help. Any advice will be taken seriously.

I would say it's the stress. I always break out during finals time. You're only nineteen so I would actually lay off the eyecream and tazorac. Try a new moisturizer for sensitive skin. It could also be the water. My grandmother's water always made me break out. Get a britta water bottle and use the filtered water for cleaning your face.
Other than that it's good you have an appointment with the doctor.

My roommate actually has a britta water bottle, I'll try that. Thank you. I thought tazorac could be the problem, but that's the only thing that works for keeping my acne away. Idk what else I could try to use as an alternative? I use plain purpose and sometimes origins, but it doesn't seem like its very beneficial, so I'll try switching that. Thank you.

If you can speak to your doctor about a birth control that controls acne. It's much cheaper than a prescription of acne specific medication. Your moisturizer could be making you break out as well so a good alternative is to use Tea Tree oil. Tea tree oil both moisturizers and treats acne. Plus it smells good. Just apply a thin layer over the face both morning and at night. Let it soak in before applying makeup over it.

I've been on birth control for several years now, and take a prescription for my acne. I've had to do a lot for it. But thank you for the help. :)
