My acne is making me loose confidence. Just when a my scars are about to heal another one pops up. Coz of this I have a really low self esteem. Sometimes makeup is my only way of coping up. I don't use foundation everyday tho, I just use bb creams coz I don't think I can let people see my bare face. do any of you feel this way too
?

I've felt like this for the past 2 years. I don't know what to do for my acne anymore nothing seems to working. Ives spent hundreds of dollars on all kinds of products and they never help. I know EXACTLY how you feel!

Some people just keep saying "just wash your face everyday". if it was that easy I'd have the most flawless face ever. urgh.

I have had that problem until I got a kit called clean and clear it comes with face wash face lotion and medecine it is just $20 for the kit it really works I use it 3 times a day you just wash your face with the wash then lotion your face with the lotion then put the medicine witch is a ointment on your pimples and zits and I got my kit at a drug store I hoped this works for you and with the acne scars use mederma a scar cream good luck!!

I used to feel this way for a couple years. I'm really sorry your going through this I still have the same problem with the acne scars and once they start fading another one pops up.*sigh* I hope that it'll clear up for you or that like me you learn to be confident with or without acne.

For the past few months I will wash my face with the Dermalogica face wash (the acne one) with my Clarisonic Mia. I apply tea tree oil to any pimples once my face has dried. Tree oil on wet skin burns from my experienced. I then place a thin later of BioOil on my face as a moisturizer and to fade acne marks. I then finish up with a thin layer of lemon essential oil to my entire face. It helps to strengthen my skin to prevent future break outs. I would suggest reading up on essential oils to combat your skin issues. I'm getting more into natural healing.

Try changing your diet!! Lots of water and live foods (fruits and veggies)! Also try exercise if you don't already!!

I agree with Andi. But I would like to emphasize on drinking water. I can't begin to express how much it helped my acne and continues to do so.

First thing in the morning. Literally, before you eat breakfast or anything drink 500mls of water. Throughout the day drink about an addition liter. And before bed drink another 500mls. You will see results, I assure you.

I was tortured in school and called "pizza face". Try a dermatologist if you haven't already. Make up can do amazing coverage. Check out diamonds and heels 14 on utube.

I have bad skin that can sometimes get worse then better. I find it annoying when people say about skincare routine because to be honest that barely does anything in my case. Have you tried seeing a healthcare professional or skin professional about it?

I used clinique for my acne I've had since I was in 5th grade I felt like a freak it affected everything in my life and caused me so much anxiety but when I hit 18 it cleared up then I broke out weird at like 21 used clinique again like I did at 17 and now I'm okay with my skin I still am paranoid about out tho so I wear foundation all the time

I had it too, but I'm lucky it's nearly over by now. I really felt bad about it cause my bf has a perfect skin :c. First I weared as much foundation as possible but that makes it worse. You get outbreaks everywhere. I used lots of products but nothing really worked for me. even very expensive stuff didnt work, so I thought I was some hopeless problem 'till I started to clean my face very very deeply EVERY EVENING AND MORNING. Cleaning is the trick 'cause acne is infection caused by stuff (foundation, powder) in your pores. By cleaning your face you give infection no chance. Use just lots of water and cleaning lotions. Your skin can get dry, but thats okay. Use a daycream or moisturizer. Another one: stop popping your pimples. I know its addictive but once you've stopped you will see results in 2-3 days! Water is more important that high end stuff. It doesn't irritate and cleans very good. Succes!! I know how you feel!!

Uhm I feel this way every.single.day. it fricken sucks. I had clear skin for the last 6 years an d then all of a sudden I broke out horribly in december and now that my skin is healed I'm left with deep scars that can't be covered completely. I'm planning on getting laser resurfacing whenever I save up enough money. In the meantime to keep my skin clear I wash twice a day with a mild non medicated cleanser, apply 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide, let that dry, then.apply moisturizer. When my skin was really bad I used the benzoyl in am and pm but now I only use it at night. I hope your skin clears up soon and your confidence and self esteem recover. Just know youre not alone :-)

I'm sorry, I know how you feel! I'd recommend Norwex face cloths, I used to have terrible acne but my skin is clear now except for a small breakout at that time of month. you just wet the cloth, clean your face with it, rinse and hang to dry. Do this twice a day and you will see results, I saw mine in less than a week. the cloths just look like normal washcloths but they actually have deep cleaning micro silver particles...I don't know how it works but it's amazing and it's sooo easy and effective and gentle on your skin. I promise I'm not endorsed or anything by them. I'm just sharing this because I know how it is to have acne and these cloths work. seriously check them out :)

Okay so no matter what never lose confidence in your appearance. I have spent some time trying different remedies on myself and here are the top 3 remedies.
1. Put some toothpaste such as crest 3D whitening to reduce amount of acne
2. Slather baby powder in trouble spot to absorb oil and eventually reduce blemishes
3. Ask your doctor for a medicated cleanser and a daily cleansing system.
