EmilyAnn Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I need to buy different acne treatment... I get allergic reactions to like everything and the hippie dippy natural stuff makes it worse... Ugh I have the same problems. I am allergic to everything. My skin is super sensitive and stuff I bought in stores always had tea tree oil and other stuff that my skin just can't cope with. Eventually my doctor gave me some prescription stuff and it is literally the best thing ever. I've used it for like four years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I'm not allergic to that... The facewash I use now gives me chemical burn like one a week. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basilisa Marie Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Proactiv has benzoyl peroxide. Are you allergic to that or salicylic acid? Edited February 19, 2013 by Basilisa Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilisa Marie Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Well, if it were me, I'd try using a low-concentration of a product with one kind of active ingredient for a week, then another, to see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What appears on your skin can be a reflection of what you take in nutritionally. Also, if you go out and buy an Aloe stalk (don't buy the aloe in the bottle) and cut it open and smooth it onto your face before you fall asleep, it will significantly calm the skin. I still do it even though I don't break out as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyAnn Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) I don't know... That's part of the problem. I started keeping a journal of EVERYTHING I put on my skin. Shampoo, face wash, make-up, moisturiser, even the things I eat go in the journal. I also record how my skin is that day, any allergies or spots or reactions. It sounds like a lot more hassle than it is, I made up a table and keep it taped to the back of my door. I can look back at the journal and see if a pattern shows up, if any particular foods or products seem to be linked to reactions. It's not perfect, but it can help you figure out what you're sensitive to. Oh and what I use is erthromycin. I don't know if you can get it without a prescription or whatever, but it's been great for me. Edited February 19, 2013 by EmilyAnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 One of my favorite outfits. All from Target. A theater outfit. All black. Random stuff I have collected over the years. Last but not least, the dress I wore to my formal. :) Got it on Amazon from overseas. Wore different shoes, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
