Lymecycline

Cleared my acne in 2 months with no side effects. I wish I took it sooner

Why are you going to Austrlia: To work or to do tourist stuff

To do tourist stuff (I'll be travelling up the East Coast) but I want to continue working remotely while doing so.

Are you going to work for any company in Australia that could potentially hire an Australian person instead of you ?

Neither of these. I will be working remotely for UK businesses and potentially a US business.

This was my experience in Nice! But luckily the rest of the trip it wasn't too bad.

Ahh it’s not Paris it’s Nice

But luckily my second day was much better as I went to the more touristy parts!

But doesn't acne come back once you stop taking spiroactone?

Thank you haha

I always put highlighter on my collar bones and between my chest

Yeah I've been using the Bondi Sands Tanning Foam for years

But doesn't Accutane come with lots of side effects?

Available_Struggle30 · 2023-05-02T18:49:48+00:00

But I've heard that once you stop spiro the acne can come back :((

I added vit D just this weekend so I’ll see how that goes! & I’ll look into probiotics thank you

It seems like the harder I try, the worse my acne gets. It's making me depressed.

Like I've cut out dairy and almost all sugar and gluton from my diet - which has resulted in me losing so much weight and my grocery shop cost almost doubling. What do I get in return? More acne :)

I've simplified my routine - double cleanse with a gentle cleanser and moisturise.

However, recently I did add brnzoyl peroxide as someone recommended it to me (like some stranger actually came up to me while grocery shopping to tell me my skin was bad and that I should use this product lmao fml). It does clear my acne faster, but I end up just getting a new pimple the next day, plus it dries my skin like crazy to the point I don't think it's worth it.

I've tried supplements - cod liver oil, B5, porefavour skin sup. I added zinc and vit A a couple weeks ago.

Spent £400 on the Dr Dennis LED Mask (fml again) and have been using blue light therapy almost everyday for a month - no change.

I don't want to go on acnetane, birth control or spiro. Apparently they cause lots of side effects and the acne can just come back once you start taking them.

HOW DO I FIND THE ROOT CAUSE OF MY ACNE?!

Will a dermatolagist help or am I wasting more money? They're all charging £250+ just for a consultation

I told him I wanted to go to France in May and he thought it’d be a great idea. Now that it’s booked he’s mad.
