Why Is My Skin So Bad?

Apr 20, 2013

I went off birth control and I started getting horrible breakout on my chest and ace. Cheap benzoyl peroxide cleared up my chest, but I woke up today with four HUGE bumps on my chin. They just kind of look like mosquito bites, but they're not. Someone told me its because my skin isn't shedding enough layers? Should I buy a peel? If so, which one?

Exfoliators also work wonders for getting rid of dead skin. I had the same issue and I started using a St.Ives medicated exfoliating scrub. It's inexpensive and is a great scrub that isn't to hard on your skin :)

It may be an imbalance in your hormones, I had the same thing happen when I went off the pill

When I went on the pill and switched to a different one my skin got bad. The doctor told me it was due to imbalance in my hormones going on and my body changing to the new pill. There was nothing I could due. Just wait it out.

Do a exfoliating scrub and drink lots of water. Our skin excessively sheds when we are dehydrated from within!

It's because of the hormonal imbalance of your skin. You either have to wait it out or go back on birth control.
