My face is really dry after starting a new acne treatment…?

admin August 25th, 2011

My doctor just switched me to using something called erythromycin and benzoyl I believe and now my skin is really dry and flaky. She told me it would be like this, but that I shouldn’t use any moisturizer. My acne has pretty much cleared up but I really can’t stand the dry skin (I’d almost rather have a little acne) Is there anything I can do to get rid of the dry skin and still keep using the treatment? Is it okay to use a little moisturizer or can I use sunblock or something to get rid of the flaky skin? Thanks!

Should I see a dermatologist?

admin August 24th, 2011

I have kinda (not too bad) dry skin, I live on water and juices and keep my face moisturized. But I have a few fine lines and a couple of deep wrinkles right under my eyes. It bothers me so much and I’m only 21 (be 22 in a week) but it drives me nuts and I have tried all kinds of creams and cleansers and nothing helps. Should I go to a doctor? I have very low self esteem when it comes to my face and I sometimes wear makeup but it seems to show the lines even worse when I wear base.

Also, on my right eye, my eye lid sags more than my left. Like, it’s puffy. But I’ve had this for awhile and if I see a doctor can he do something for this as well? Please help, I don’t wanna be this way anymore but I don’t want surgery. I’m told I look really young but these small flaws are bringing me down. Any advice on what I can do? Can a dermatologist help me? Thanks for your help..

Acne treatment for dry skin?

admin August 10th, 2011

Hey everyone, I have never really had a problem with acne so much before, as I am 16 now and I know it’s a common thing for my age. In the past I may have had a few zits and whatever else is in that red 3D flow uglifying my face lol (you know what I mean) but it’s coming to a point now where I can’t control it and it’s taking over.. Any suggestions? I can’t keep washing my face with those oily skin cleansers because I have EXTREMELY dry skin and it hurts after water has touched it I almost have exema.. (or however you spell it). And tips? PLEASE HELP ME! :)

Has anyone tried RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Serum?

admin July 18th, 2011

I’m in my early 20’s and I hear that in order to have less wrinkles at an older age, is to prevent them before they start. So I decided to try out this face anti-wrinkle cream, and it seems to work because I have been feeling my skin tighter and even my mom has notice some differences, but the problem is that it stings our faces a bit. We both have dry skin, so I’m not sure if that could be a reason, but I would still like to know if anyone has had the same problem or is that suppose to happen? Thanks.

How to wear make up correctly?

admin June 19th, 2011

I’m going to go to the store in a bit, (Target) to buy a few things, and I kind of want to buy some new make up while there.
And my problem is with concealer and foundation, and a dewy finish.
First of all- I have dry skin
So with my concealer, what would I buy to make sure it doesn’t go into any small lines? Because even though I don’t have wrinkles, when it dries after a while it creates lines that look like wrinkles.
With foundation I do not wear liquid or cream, because I don’t know if I apply it everywhere or only places where I need coverage? And if I apply it only in smaller areas won’t it look funny to have weird lighter and such spots on my face? (And yes I know I have to find that perfect shade that blends into my skin ^^)
And then there’s the glow. How do I get that dewy glow on my cheeks after finishing? I don’t want to have to wear tons of Moisturizer and lotion to get that. And the glow I am talking about is more of like a moist glow not like a shimmer from those sparkles in make up.
I also have old acne scars and small pimples. But not much just here and there.
Also after a day of smiling and talking the make up creases at the sides of my mouth.
I just want to make sure my make up stays put all day.
Please help! D: I’m 19 and still don’t know how to put on my make up correctly. :)
Also if you have recommendations of some nice products (non-expensive please) feel free to say them.

Is this to much makeup for a 7th grader (middle school)?

admin May 30th, 2011

Hi,
I am in middle school and I am wondering if this is an okay amount of makeup:

I use moisturizer (like face cream, it prevents wrinkles when you get older, less dry skin, ect), a light amount of cover girl powder over that and blend it. It looks like I am not really wearing makeup.

On my eyes I use a light shade of an almost faded pink eyeshadow. I have pale skin so it looks pretty good.

I usually see girls with heavy mascara and foundation and eye shadow at my school, but my aunt says I shouldn’t wear makeup at all, so I just want some more opinions.

Whats the best acne treatment (combination type skin)?

admin March 19th, 2011

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

Why do women hate it when guys go for younger girls?

admin February 18th, 2011

It is your fault that we like younger girls, if you women took care of yourself, we wouldn’t have to go for the younger girls. You women always seem to have saggy boobs, cottage cheese thighs, tons of wrinkles and dry skin from going tanning. I know that women start to go down hill after age 21, but it is very disgusting, you should really start doing something about that.

Can I use this sunscreen as my daily moisturizer?

admin February 9th, 2011

I have dry skin, and currently use Eucerin, which doesn’t have sun protection. I want to use Clarins Sun Wrinkle Control Cream as my daily moisturiser, is it ok to use this daily? It’s got sesame oil and aloe extracts for moisturisation so it should work well as a moisturiser too.

The reason I want to use this is because it doesn’t contain oxybenzone (aka benzophenone-3), which has been linked to skin cancer (not something I want in a sunscreen! – see link below), and also doesn’t contain zinc oxide, which leaves a film on my face.

So yeah, ok to use this daily?

I HAVE:
* Keratosis Pilaris
* REDNESS REDNESS REDNESS!
* Bumps the same color as my skin
* Red bumps (often mistaken for acne but very different)
* Visible pores
* Oily skin on nose
* Dry skin on cheeks

WHAT I WANT:
* Coverage: For Redness, and even better… for the bumps (red and yellow – I’m ASIAN! XD)
* It to look natural, undetectable: I want my foundation to not show, if possible, even upclose. I already want to take off mineral powder off the list of products above because I have tried mineral powder and it shows powder on my face.. It should be blendable I guess.
* Make my skin look young and soft: I am just a teenager and already I am disgusted by my skin. Stupid Keratosis Pilaris… Anyways, like, I want the soft, bright, young skin look. I dont have wrinkles though, I think. Except the lines around my nose-mouth and the look of my cheeks hanging down my face.. That’s and exaggeration, LOL, it’s not so bad that anyone other than me might really notice.. xD

It would be better if you actually used a lot, or more than one, of these products, so you can actually compare, but any answers would be appreciated.

And yea I get the idea of putting on lotion/moisturizer or whatever before foundation..
I have used Bare Minerals Mineral Powder in Foundation and Concealer and the people from the store actually helped me pick those out. But then, when I wore it, the powder shows on my face… just like powder… It does provide excellent coverage, but I want to look natural.
