I feel like i've been battling spots for 20 years
- teenager: very bad skin, did all the clearasil etc, lotions from doctor, tablets from doctor, roaccutane, dianette
eventually by my early 20s my skin had cleared up. came off all medication and used normal skincare products
- late 20s: skin flaring up again, bout clinique anti-blemish 3 step products, used these religiously and skin cleared up fine.
- fast forward about 3 years to present: still using clinique anti-blemish, but skin had got AWFUL over the past 6-9 months. Huge, painful, red lumps under the skins. All over my cheeks mainly. Never really come to a head, but look so red and inflamed - they really are BIG lumps.
my confidence is totally shattered. i don't know what to try. Don't really want to start buying a load of expensive products which may not work.
wondering if anyone can recommend something simple or natural solutions which i maybe havent thought of. should i just wash with plain water for a while?
