Acne sufferers, do you find...

... you skin improves during the summer?

My skin's turned real kinda blotchy/rough this last week or so.

Does your cleansing/product use have to change during the warmer months?

My skin def improves over summer. sometimes my skin turns on me for no reason! Just mentioning, there's been a post about acne before and have you tried any products with benzoyl peroxide (sp)? I use benzac 5% wash and cream and it works very well, dries the skin out so you reduce amount of washing once it's under control.

Yes, lipsy, I've done all the lotions, potions and pills and none of it helped - infact, they made the condition worse.

I stopped taking/using it all. Just wash my face with water and use a moisterising cream from the Simple range now.

Are you out in the sun much, then?

This is what I found really wierd.
I used a bit of Aqueous cream on a scratch that Ds had made on my face and my since using it every night, my skin has REALLY cleared up!!
My GP reckons that because it's being very moisturised, my skin doesn't need to produce much oil.

Nope. Mine's shit all year round.
