I live in UAE with hot & Humid weather but all day in AC. Is Nivea Soft cream good for daily use on Face/Neck? Will it stop any wrinkles? I have normal skin with sometimes oily. Will it suite on my face?

I have really bad acne. Mostly blackheads that won’t go away. I have used Skinid, neutrogena, PanOxyl, and proactiv. None of them work for me. I went to a dermatologist and they gave me a anti-yeast treatment. It doesn’t seem to work. I have also used Clean & Clear. I get really bad breakouts and I have one right now, which is really bad. Like impossible to handle. Do you have any treatments for sensitive skin. My skin tends to dry up and peel. PLEASE HELP!

Nivea has a few different products for skin tightning, cellulite, etc. Just a little confused about which one is best for my purpose.
I’m in my early 30s, but have had the orange peel thing happening on my stomach for the past year.
Just purchased Nivea’s Goodbye Cellulite, in addition to Nivea’s Age Defying Moisturizer, both for use on my body and not my face.
But I wonder if the "orange peel" belly is even cellulite or just excess skin from when I lost 10 pounds, and if the cellulite gel would even work for this.
NIVEA PRODUCTS’ CLAIMS
Anti-Age Treatment Body Lotion
Less wrinkles, e.g. at décolleté or arm pit area
Less dryness all over the body
My Silhouette!/Slimming & Reshaping Gel-Cream
Leads to a reduction of up to 3 cm on targeted body parts such as thighs, hips, waist and belly.
Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream
Visible reduction of the appearance of cellulite at the respective body parts.
Help! Don’t want to use the incorrect product for my belly….
I forgot about Skin Firming Moisturiser by Nivea.
CLAIMS
Noticeably firms the skin
Tangibly tightens the skin
Moisturises the skin
Sigh.

I have very oily skin & a lot of acne. I have tried Proactive, Clean & Clear, a LOT of over the counter products & nothing seems to work for my face. Right now I am using Exposed Skin Care & I have been using it for a month & a half now & i have seen no improvement in my skin. My other scrubs I am also using is Neutrogena Deep Clean, St. Ives Blackhead & Blemish, & Biore Pore Scrub. I do not over wash my face. I only wash it in the morning & at night. I wash my makeup off like I should but i haven’t found the perfect stuff for me. Does anyone know of anything that is great? I have also went to the dermatologist & there stuff did not work & i am not getting Accutane.

& i found out that the way she keeps her skin clear and pretty is Borba Skin Care Water.
basically its water for any type of skin and it is known to help clear up your skin, erase fine lines / wrinkles, etc..
has anybody heard of this? does it work & is it worth the money do you think?
it sounds pretty cool and i really want to try it out:]

MY TATTOO IS WRINKLED WHEN I BEND MY ARM? PLEASE HELP!?
OK, im gonna try to explain what my tattoo looks like as best i can.
I got it done in May of this year and it looked wrinkled for about 4 months. I went back to the tattoo parlor and got a touch up. He said that this would help take care of what it looked like.
My tattoo is on the lower part of my arm (the top, on the opposite side of my elbow) Im african american and my tattoo is 4 letters in black. It looks wrinkled, a LITTLE bumpy. It only looks good when i stretch out my arm, but when i bend it, it looks very bad and looks like theres lines in the tattoo that were not in my skin when i first got it done. I feel like from my angle it looks good when i really strech out my hand but from other peoples view its shiny and wrinkled.
Its not itchy or red.
its been 3 weeks since i got the touch up
but PLEASE tell me if this is normal. Its shiny but i know that will go away im just scared that its goona look like it did when i first got it done. I used A&D for the first week and now im using non scented lubriderm.
is this normal?????

it’s evident that it will lead to unsightly scabs, scars, red patches, ugly cracked/wrinkled skin, & most importantly CANCER.
why are ppl so dumb & reckless…do SOME of you not give a hoot or care about your lives?

For the past several months I have been using Purity by Philosophy skin care line which I buy from Sephora. I like to change things up most of the time. At first I felt this product worked great for me but now I feel it is drying me out. Just a little background I’m 22 years old and I have normal skin. No break outs, no oily skin or anything. I’m starting to use eye cream as a preventative and I also use the Philosophy line for that. So the question is….or questions are..
What do you wash your face with? What do you use to moisturize? & If you use an eye cream as a preventative or for wrinkles what works for you? Thanks =]

i am debating against
Klear Action Acne Treatment System
or
Clean & Clear Advantage
My skin has a tendency to get oily, also it gets dry with certain acne treatments. i have used proactive and it didn’t dry out my face. but i would like to know what would be better to use for my skin type, i want the unevenness in my skin tone to go away so if you know something other than these please tell me.

Ok. I tried to post my entire history on here and realized a week later that it was trumped to ~20%
Ok. The short of this is…
The skin of my scrotum has burned for 6 months and a few days now.
The skin on my head, face, neck, shoulders and chest has burned for 3 months now.
The skin of the head, face, neck, shoulder and chest typically look healthy (no pink or redness. I am fair skinned.). They are only red if I wash several days in a row, but the skin burns 24/7 like a "carpet burn" or "indian rub burn." For the past month now, the skin has been so sensitive that I cannot wash it but every 2 or 3 days even with so called "sensitive skin soaps." I have ordered a different brand of sensitive skin soap nearly every week for the past 6 months (I bet you had no idea there were so many). I have tried the Eucerin, Basis & Vanicream that seem to be so popular, and many more including the rather exotic Neem Aura. Even shampoos hurt. I have tried several shampoos.
Also, I have seen a doc every 2 weeks for this — 6 different ones: 2 GPs, 2 urologists, 1 dermatologist, 1 neurologist. They are unable to offer any relief. LITERALLY NOTHING IMPROVES THE APPEARANCE OF THE SCROTUM. Nothing improves the sensitivity of all the areas besides leaving them alone for 2 days or more, but I have developed severe acne in doing so… at age 38!!! I have tried several things topically and orally for the pain, which while it is not usually intense, it is constant and annoying. The only thing that has helped with the pain is ice.
This week, my lips are beginning to burn. It seems whatever this is spreads slowly.
My questions are:
1) Any ideas anyone? It’s ok if you are not a medical professional or if you are. I hold noone liable here.
2) I am appaulled by both the apparent lack of compassion/sympathy and the apparent lack of competence by the doctors. Perhaps I do not know what to expect in medical care and expect too much. To the doctors’ credit, I will say that things don’t look bad 99% of the time (apart from the scrotum which looks only mildly red and excessively wrinkled and no longer "retreats" — EVER.). Only 1 of the 6 docs is even friendly, at least projecting a caring spirit. NONE of the docs have done any test except at my explicit request, and all of these test were from the nice GP. The dermatologist has never done a skin scrape or biopsy. Does this seem "good" medical practice? Is this "standard" medical practice? If not, what do I do? How do I get the medical care that I feel I deserve and that I am paying for?
I’d like to share a lot more details, but let’s see if this fits…

I’m 33 and have lost that youthful glow. I would like to start a skin care & make-up routine that won’t be expensive and take too much time. I’d like suggestions for using natural or homemade products. I’ve started using plain natural yogurt on my face/neck for moisture & exfoliation and I love it! I’ve also use chamomile tea bags on my eyes to reduce puffiness. My skin is healthy, no blemish problems. I’m just starting to get fine lines and not as firm anymore. I see all these anti-wrinkle serums & beads, creams & scrubs. For make-up, there is Primer? Like on my walls? Lol! Beauty experts suggests all these different brushes for each step. Those things aren’t cheap! Won’t a q-tip do? I don’t want to be an airbrushed model. I just want even skin tone without looking like I’m covered in a dusty white mask. All of these highlighters, brighteners, toners etc have me so confused. The people at the stores/mall just want you to buy EVERYTHING. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I’m 40…when I was in my 20’s & 30’s I was the "shit", it was sweet. But the later 30’s and now 40 ugh… I lost my sexy! I haven’t wore make up in years. I had a clean face and groomed hair, just trying barely. I want to change my beauty around. I use Neurgema wrinkle cream…BUT my eyes look aweful…older than I am!! I really need tips and ideas to skin care and even make up to help me be pretty and sexy again. It sucks in so many ways about getting older. Thanks

I read that this product whitens the skin, and I was hoping it would work on my underarms since I have a problem with dark underarms. Does it work?

I have combination skin (normal/dry skin on cheeks and side of face and oily skin on my forehead, nose and chin). my acnes not that bad, its like moderate. I mostly get lots of skin colored small pimples and sometimes big red ones. the little skin colored ones are really annoying and ive used proactiv, acnefree, clean&clear advantage and clinique. proactiv worked for a while then stopped working, acnefree kept my skin the same, clinique dried my skin out, so clear and clear is the best acne treatment ive used but wondering if theres something better.
ive heard of something called exposed, is that any good? or zenmed or any of those brands?
also are there any good prescription creams available at the dermatologist?
kthanks

I am 15 years old and i started wearing makeup, almost daily, in middle school probably around the age 13 years old. My mother always says that I will get wrinkles earlier on if i keep wearing make-up. I was just wondering if i what my mom says is correct.
I take off my make up everyday before i go to sleep and i apply a moisturizer everyday after i wash my face as well.
I use a Dior make up remover for the eyes and the baby lotion by johnson & johnson because i found that it is very gentle on my skin and makes my face more smooth and clean looking.
What is the ideal age to start using anti aging cream?
If so, which products should i use?
&
does make up actually cause wrinkles?
Thanks!
