SPF Moisturizers For Oily Skin |
| | Hi Meagan
I am 26 years old and I have oily skin that is easily prone to breakouts. My breakouts come out the most around hormonal times and stress related due to school. Well, I’m just about to start using a low concentration of Retin A for my chin area (wear I mostly break out) and sometimes my cheeks. I know I’m going to need a good moisturizing SPF for my face but all other kinds of SPF lotions I have used on my face have made me more oilier and breakout. I live an hour from the beach where we get lots of sun and heat; plus the humidity is very high!!! After going through this website, two products caught my eye which were Anthelios 60 Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid and Ultimate UV Defense SPF 30 by SkinCeuticals. What do you think and which one would you recommend? I want something that will definitely not make my face look oilier and cause me to break out, but with good protection due to the Retin A due to the environment where I live.
Thank you : )

Oily Face At 35!! |
| | My face is so oily about an hour after I wash it. I have tried washing it 2-3 times a day and even more as an experiment.
I am 35, non smoker, no caffeine, no junk food, lot's of water, veggies and protein. Wear very little make up, if I do, it is mineral powder.
I have used every kind of face, Neutrogena, biore, aveda, daily exfoliating (st. ives, and burts) etc...When I use moisturizer, it makes my face even more oily.
Blotting sheets work for about 20 minutes.
Even just splashing my face with clean water several times / day only keeps the oil down for a few minutes.
My dermatologist has tried multiple creams, gels and oral medication.
Any affordable suggestions are greatly recommended, as I am unemployed and do not have insurance. |

Body Acne |
| | I have recurring body acne especially below the stomach area. This may be due to me being overweight. Is being overweight contributing to me continuing to get these acne bumps and sores in this region of my body? |

Xemos Laser Hair Remover |
| | I have dark skin. And I am EXTREMELY interested in the Xemos personal laser hair remover. Should I buy it and do more treatments on the low setting? I've heard that lasers can burn dark skin if the intensity is too high, but the Xemos promises a long wavelength laser that can be used on dark skin. What is your advice?

Menstrual Cycle Related Breakouts |
| | Hi, I am Asian & 25 years old, I have combination skin, slightly sensitive. My t-zone is oily, cheeks are fairly normal but tend to be on the dry side during winter. I do not have very bad acne, but I would almost always get breakouts few days before my menstrual cycle starts. Most of them usually go away once the “white heads” appears. But once in a while I would get a really big reddish zit that wouldn’t go away for weeks. Birth control pills stopped my acne problem, but I had to stop because it was giving me severe headaches.
I want to try a new cleanser & toner, something that can prevent new breakouts and ease the acne scars. I am interested in the Obagi or Glytone, but not sure what is the right thing for me. My cheeks often get very dry and start to peel when the product is too strong, I read that Obagi or Glytone might have the peeling effect in the beginning, will a good moisturizer help? Please let me know your recommendations. Thanks.
I have listed a few items that worked or did not work for me just to give you a sense of background information. Thanks again for your help.
[Works Well]
Biomedic Purifying Cleanser – Feels very clean, helps with my blemish a lot
Biomedic Conditioning Solution Toner – Stings a little, but works well if I use it with the cleanser
Kose Sekkisei Lotion Toner – It’s a Japanese brand, helps with acne scars and clams my skin somewhat
Jurlique Chamomile Soothing Mist – Calms my skin when it’s very sensitive
Kiehl’s Calendula Herbal Extract Alcohol-Free Toner – very calming, but only helps the breakout a little bit
La Roche Posay Effaclar K Acne Treatment – works well only one pimples that has “white heads”
[ Did NOT Work Well ]
Tretino 0.025 % cream – My dermatologist prescribed this, every time I use this cream on my pimple, the pimple would always turn very red and swollen, seem to be more infected than before.
DERMALOGICA MediBac Clearing Adult Acne Treatment KIT – Skin peels a lot, got 2-3 very painful zits after use
Dr.Hauschka Clarifying Toner – I get tiny little bumps after a day of usage
Murad Clarifying Cleanser – no obvious result, a bit over-drying
LaRoche-Posay Biomedic LHA Cleanser – no obvious result
LaRoche-Posay Biomedic LHA Toner – feels a bit harsh on my skin, often get red after use |

Obaji Clenziderm |
| | I recently bought the Obaji Clenziderm three step treatment. I have found that the obaji causes more break outs and redness on my face is this something that is temporary and if so for how long? or should I stop using it. |
| 503 |
Rosacea Products |
| | I have flushing and rough dry skin. I recently began using Kinerase and my skin is smoother, but is there any other product that will give better results? Is it safe to use the kinerase peel on rosacea skin? Thanks for your help. |
| 504 |
Salicylic Acid |
| | I have sensitive skin but 2% Salicylic Acid products seem to be great for treating and preventing breakouts (as long as I also moisturize). My question is about salicylic acid soaps: How can it be effective if I lather it on and then rinse it right off? Topical salicylic acid treatments that DON'T GET RINSED OFF must be the only real way to get the effects, right? Thanks! |

Aren't All The Regenerist Products The Same? |
| | I have had great results with Olay's Regenerist line but the combination of active ingredients in all of them is exactly the same. The serum seems to work great...but if the ingredients are the same, why should I buy a 14-day kit or any of the other products in the line? Thanks! |
