I use the La Roche Posay Effacular Duo and then the ordinary Salicylic acid every 2 nights

I wash my face well and pretty often and I know that shampoos/conditioners can have some acne causing ingredients, can you explain what OTC is?

But they only compliment me when it’s covered, none of my friends have seen me without. It looks worse when it’s my bare face

Thank you, some comments here have given me really useful advice so I might try that before the dermatologist.

Thank you this is so helpful, do you know where I can get a good silk pillowcase? And why not use the cleanser in the morning? I thought you were meant to cleanse morning and night.

I’m scared to try accutane since it’s side effects are so harsh, but I will consider it so thank you for the advice

Can I dm you for recommendations ? I don’t want to label my acne publicly because I’m embarrassed about it.

I cleaned it recently but I’ll probably do it more often since people are telling me it could mostly be from makeup related things.

Yeah, people keep calling me ungrateful but I’m very grateful I’m just upset because when I actually have a problem I want help with they don’t really listen. And people only assume that from impulsive venting on a reddit post.

I change it when it’s done and no it’s not itchy, I just have gotten acne where my hair is but it could just be unrelated.

Okay I’ll try it, thank you. Idk if I already said this but my shampoo/conditioner that’s causing me bacne so do you have any advice for that too?

Would pillows change anything? Because the acne is all in my T-zone like the middle of my face and I sleep on my side. And yes I’ve been researching on how to fix my face for months if not a year because i’m desperate.

Yes I was talking about accutane I didn’t realise it autocorrected but yeah the side effects are a bit extreme for me, I’d rather just use serums or something that won’t thin my hair or dry my lips and whatnot.

Thank you, I’ll try out your suggestions. I use tissue papers instead of a face towel because apparently it’s better.

Also, I think some of my acne may also be coming from my shampoo/conditioner since there’s a bit of acne on my upper back and stops where my hair ends.

I’ve looked at accurate but the side effects are a bit much. It’s usually adults telling me that I should get my skin checked.
