I will start this thread by saying I know that lots of people suffer with full on acne, and I know I do not have this. However, I am about to turn 30 and am still suffering with oily spotty skin and I cant seem to get rid of it. It is really affecting my confidence and I'm not sure where to turn.
I wear make up maybe once per month (and instantly break out the next day even though I make sure I remove it all at night and only put on a light layer anyway.
I have tried expensive skincare brands like laroche posay and after 3 months there was no change.
I've tried vitamin supplements to balance my hormones with no effect.
I have changed my pill to one with less progesterone and it had no effect.
I am currently using all natural products in my skin care routine: I double cleanse, use tea tree spot gel and a tea tree moisturiser twice per day and have done for 2 months. I am also using a clay tea tree face mask 2/3 times per week.
I just don't know what to do next but don't have money to throw away on more expensive products. I don't think it warrants speaking to a doctor and worry they would think I'm over reacting but it is really bothering me. Here's a very bad quality pic from tonight, my skin is not too bad by my standards today but still spotty on my forehead, around my chin and mouth and sore and spotty on my nose.
Please does anyone have any advice for me?
