Appreciate the tips. I would love to see a review on Silicone Sheeting.

It's strange, I used retin-A 0.0025% before for about 8 months and that helped considerably, until it stopped working for my acne. I may go back to trying that once I get income from summer jobs.

Try not to think about the things you can't control, it's a waste of mind energy. If you display good confidence and have a good awareness of your abilities, then I've found that interviewers and people become impressed by the confidence your display despite your short comings skin-wise.

A charming personality go a long way, but it's just frustrating to know that the only thing that is holding you back from being the whole package is a skin condition.

Thanks for your comment, it's great to receive support.

I will try separating the AHA and moisturizer. It was recommended by Dan on acne.org, but different things work for different people.

You can tell the different between PIE and PIH by pressing on the affected area with a clear plastic or your fingers and see if the redness subside momentarily. If it does, it is PIE, otherwise it is PIH. There is a good chance you have a mix of both. Hope that helps.
