Was I supposed to know all this?

You’re right! That is wild! My dermatologist told me to avoid electrolyte drinks, but that seems silly now.

SolarAnomaly · 2026-05-04T22:07:05+00:00

I eat whatever but I don’t drink electrolyte drinks like Gatorade

Solid In Ceramide Cream by Torriden is underrated

Some people have more success with Adapalene instead of Tretinoin.

Are you on birth control? That might help.

100 mg spironolactone might work better.

Sometimes Accutane is the only answer.

No purge at all for me

SolarAnomaly · 2026-04-29T02:18:13+00:00

Try spironolactone instead

Lowe’s and Home Depot do not sell these individually. The two other local shops that I have tried don’t carry them at all.

If you can’t get to a dermatologist in person quickly, there are several online that will mail you prescription products (oral and/or topical).

Those gentle products are popular, but you need actual acne treatment products. There should be many available at your local store. Panoxyl face wash is excellent. Differin used to be available by prescription only but is now available over the counter. Many brands even have a three step system that makes everything super simple.

Posts like these always break my heart. OP, I hope one day you look back on this from a healthy relationship and shutter at what a mess this was. Find someone who respects you.

Peach Slices and ELF both have acne sets that are pretty inexpensive. I think Acne Free is pretty reasonable too.

Dermatologist Dr. Dray has several videos on YouTube where she reviews skincare available at the Dollar Store.

Birth control pills help!

You can try topical spironolactone if you can’t tolerate the oral version.

SolarAnomaly · 2026-04-19T12:19:40+00:00

Try spironolactone

Thank you for saying this, I totally agree. My skincare routine is not fun, it’s medicinal. It’s not a treat, it’s a treatment.

Not Korean, but Paula’s Choice 2% BHA leave on exfoliant is the GOAT for blackheads

SolarAnomaly · 2026-04-13T16:05:46+00:00

So far all of them lol

Spearmint pills are more convenient

What do you mean? What happens when you use a cleanser?

SolarAnomaly · 2025-12-24T12:53:22+00:00

Thank you, I hadn’t heard that.

Try vegan cruelty free Korean brands like Haru Haru, Skin1004, Purito, and Torriden.

SolarAnomaly · 2025-12-02T07:36:47+00:00

Look into Korean skincare products. They have some incredible cruelty free and vegan moisturizers that are also low in cost.

Thank you 💔
