Spotty mouths....

Please tell me it's not just my skin! Does anyone else out there, circa 50, have issues with annoying spots around their mouth? The tend to flare up and disappear quickly, but never just one or two. Always a raft of them. Incredibly annoying..

Not me but my friend does. Are you on her? I am and my skin is incredible. Friend isn’t and she’s really suffering.

Not “are you on her” BlushGrin

Are you on HRT?!

ShockGrinGrin. Yes I'm on HRT! My skin was amazing but in the last couple of weeks has really broken out. Horrible nightmare.

Oooh are you having hot sweats?

Maybe you need a change of skincare routine.

My skin was awful, dry, until I went on hrt and then it went right again. Perhaps yours is getting oily?

No - not oily or noticeably dry either. Really odd. Just little pimples appearing, disappearing then appearing again. Literally look like a glue sniffer, when it's at its worst. May talk to my gp about changing the doze on my HRT.

Have never heard of that - just been looking it up. Looks nasty. Definitely heading to my gp.
