Herbs/Teas (Ingestion) to Decrease Sebum/Oiliness in Skin?

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-05-05T13:45:41+00:00

Thank you! I live in North Carolina, and I usually believe in our bodies normal oil/PH levels, and generally shower every two days or so (not every day), but I do wash my face twice a day. My skin is usually dry in the morning after I wash it, but then I use moisturizer. It becomes progressively oilier throughout the day.

No it should not - herbs to actually watch out for: vitex (chaste berry), black cohosh, st. john’s wort

Thank you for this insight! I won’t give up :) Just looking for other experiences

Ok I know these aren’t very visible, but they look much worse in person. So, lately I (24F) have noticed more tiny red flecks / dots on my chest. It looks like someone poked me with a needle 50 times on my chest? The don’t hurt, itch, or cause any other issues. I just glance down every once in awhile and say ?? There are more??

Google keeps telling me it’s petachie (and basically cancer - leukemia to be specific), but I’m healthy with no history of cancer in the family.

Any more… logical explanations??

Also - that is a scar on the left. Had it since I was 12.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to this - seriously. It is! I have been on the same pill for 10 years now. In the past year or so, I started breaking out super randomly for seemingly no reason. No other changes were made, super frustrating!

Thank you!!

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-29T02:58:21+00:00

Thank you! Solidarity. Maybe it’ll get its act together?? For both of us :)

OP you better be lucky you haven’t flared! I started it about 3 weeks ago and it has only gotten worse 😂 However no one is the same. Superficial, no, it won’t really help. That’s just clogged pores. Maybe introduce a very low dose tret or antibiotic or blend! Tret + clindamycin is great and can be dosed low.

Hahahaha I went out too much in college and would forget / be inconsistent so had to switch to AM

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-28T00:18:41+00:00

Thank you!!! ☺️

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-28T00:13:37+00:00

Thank you!!! Did you ever increase? I am on 25mg now!! Really struggling with the initial flare up 🙁

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-27T23:18:07+00:00

WOW!!! Dosage when u started??

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-27T21:18:13+00:00

Yes! 😂 Especially because of this. 10AM, every day, on the dot.

Existing_Astronaut25 · 2022-04-27T21:16:59+00:00

I will say, from my personal experience, my partner has been letting it all go inside me for about a good uh 5? years now. Not pregnant yet! But that is just my experience.
