Skin Advice Please 😪

[Badskinhelp]

So this is the skin on my chin, the rest of my face is fine.
Am i stuck with it like this? No matter what i do to cover it, it always looks a total messs. My confidence is at a zero at the moment because of it!

Try a chemical exfoliant to unclog the pores. The Ordinary do a good value salicyllic acid which works for me. It’ll get better

Thanks, i think ive given up, ive bought every product you can think of and nothing seems to help!

From the advice I've been given The Ordinary has very likely got an answer for you

May I ask what you use at the moment make up/skincare wise?

thinkingcapon i oil cleanse then hot cloth cleanse, i use the red peel once a week, but that leaves me feeling so dry, so thinking of stopping.
I use the garden of wisdom niacinamide in the morning then, a hydrating serum, then a moisturiser.
At night after cleansing i use garden of wisdom vitamin c then moisturiser.

Ok and make up wise?

Well ive tried every primer and foundation going, im using Boots CYO primer at the mo, really cheap and seems to be one of the better ones and a rimmel foundation, although the CYO foundation reviews seem to be ok too, so im thinking about giving that a try too

With make up on in this pic, as you can see it makes no difference, if anything looks worse with make up on

I think you likely won’t see a great deal of difference with topical products to be honest. Paula’s choice 2% BHA lotion might be a good option to clean out your pores. However, to see more noticeable results, perhaps something like microneedling? Helps with collagen production and skin rejuvenation xx

You should visit a dermatologist and not test random products in vain.

I habe been thinking about a dermatologist, how do i find out about them, where they are etc?

Go to your gp and they'll refer you x

Ok thanks, trying to get refered to anything through the gp is hard, but ill have a go!

How old are you OP? I know this does help, but your neck is really lovely and smooth!

*doesn’t

Just had a horrendous skin problem (nothing like yours OP) that I'd had for weeks. Luckily have private health via work so gp said he hadn't a clue and to just go private. She did a biopsy and gave me magic potion and it was fixed in days. I suspect it wasn't cheap though.... (too scared to ask how much!)

fearfullotsofthetime thanks, one positive then! Im 44.
Maybe i just have to put it down to aging skin and this is how it will be for me, just knocks my confidence thats all. Its all i think about when talking to people
