anyone else suffering from open pores?? Anong best solution dito??

 Try putting ice cubes in a face towel and pat slowly on your face.It helps to close pores.For me,I tried using the Aqualabel red of shiseido ,moisturizer ito and they claim it is 5 in one ,just like Olay.Pero madami naman sa market for pores treatment.

[mkga]

Skinoren cream is available in Mercury Drugstore. It is 1,035 pesos for 30g ata if I remember it correctly.

mga sis, ano gamit nyo pampatagal ng dark marks na galing sa pimples? dati kasi kapag nagkakapimples ako, ilan araw lang nawawala na at wala naman dark marks naiiwan pero ngayon kapag nagkakapimples ako, nag iiwan na siya ng dark marks kapag gumaling na. parang ang dumi tuloy tingnan ng face ko ngayon.

[Filipinasadhart]

hi sis better to consult a doctor first kase ako ganyan din problema ko para maibigay sayo yun tamang gamot. gumamit ako ng mga whitening cream etc na nabibili kung saan saan hindi rin nawala. Sayang lang ang money. same problem tayo ang problema ko yun mga pimple na gumaling na tapos naging dark marks na.

[Desie]

i dont know if natry ninyo yung mag hilamos gamit ang malamig na tubig it works for me meron pa rin tumutubong pimple pero mangilan-ngilan na lang at hindi araw araw or linggo-linggo.. siguro once every month (pag may period or dadating pa lang).. as in malamig na tubig lang ang gagamitin sa mukha try niyo lang

I discovered the cause of my acne that has been plagueing me for the past month.

I changed my makeup, my facial wash but nothing happened. I bought sansacne to dry up the pimples but when a pimple dries, another one pops up.

Then i discovered the cause may be my diet. Milk was a staple in my breakfast for the past month since i was trying to lose weight. I searched in google and there were researches that milk esp the low fat ones can trigger acne

I disposed my milk asap. A week after, pimples were gone. I just have to deal woth post acne marks.

[Ehh kasi.]

^ same thing happened to me with milk. I used to drink it every day. My body just doesn't seem to like it if I drink it every day. I get bad tummy aches aside from acne. At most, I can drink it twice a week. hihi.

[AnJelatine]

Dati super ma-pimples ako sa face lalo na sa forehead. Pero nung na-buntis ako, hindi na ako nagka-pimples sa mukha.

Ang problema ko naman 'til now, ang dame-dame-dame ko na parang pimple marks sa likod pati upper arms meron Panget tuloy mag sleeveless Meron din ba sa inyo na ganito ang case?

Same happened with coffee for me. Before kasi, 3x a day ako mag-coffee because of board exams. Ayun, super lala ng pimples ko. As in oa mukhang may ketong. Lahat na ginawa ko, but nada. Then after a while, I toned my coffee down to 1. Ayun, umonti pero madami padin. Til I just literally stopped and ngayon sobrang minsan nalang.

I have a feeling nag change hormones ko nun masyado kasi 3x/day ba naman.  It was mostly on my chin kasi kumpol kumpol sila tas yung marks naglalast ng more than a month. Gaah depresisng days. Now whenever I get a couple (mostly PMS), I just think of how my skin used to be so bawal na reklamo masyada.

sisters, sino na nakapagtry sa DERMCARE? nagpabili kasi ang cousin ko ng 4-in-1 cream nila. it's a whitening cream. i forgot the exact name. pero sabi nya effective daw for pimple marks. she asked me to buy the whitening cream and not the acne cream. she really said na effective yun kaya 3 tubes na ang pinabili nya together with the soap. haha. it's cheap naman so nacoconvince akong itry and at the same time magpa-facial na din. what do you think?

[cartman]

saan nakakabili ng derma care balitaan mo kame sis ha gusto ko pang pa tangal ng marks
na hindi makaka break outs hehe

[pretty_B]

sis, sa dermcare sm north ako bumili. meron din daw sila sa may guada. ang babait ng mga tao dun and the place is really good. i'll update kung umeffect sa cousin ko.

[tinapay]

update ko lang yung reply ko last June (reply #40)..

more than a month ko halos nagamit yung isang tube ng adapalene.  di naman totally nawala pimples pero pasulput-sulpot at maliliit na lang yung lumalabas.  medyo naging makinis din yung face ko sa adapalene in a way na mukhang lumiit pores at pumuti though yung mga pimple marks ko nandyan pa rin.  right now balik ako ulit sa tretinoin cream kasi ubos na adapalene.  ubusin ko muna 'tong tret bago ako bumili ulit ng adapalene.  between tret and adapalene, napansin ko mas strong ang tret, meaning drying but the effects in terms of combating pimples, much better.  kasi pag may sumulpot akong pimple, lalagyan ko lang ng tret sa gabi then the next day mawawala na.  (maybe because of tea tree oil too which i apply every morning on the pimple area).  also, yung maraming kong pimple sa chin noon, nawala naman sa adapalene pero sa tret, mas lalong wala nang lumalabas (except kapag nalimutan or nakatulugan ko na sa gabi na hindi naghihilamos. dati nang sakit ng acne prone face ko).  in addition, medyo regular na ang facial ko, about twice a month.  di pa ulit ako nakakapag-diamond peel, maybe this month.  ang major problem ko na talaga ngayon is yung pimple marks.

so i guess tret and/or adapalene can help lessen the appearance of pimples.  also, lately i've been drinking green tea.  ok din yata 'to for acne prone skin.  green tea dapat.  nabasa ko sa twitter

[cottondoll]

Shulammite works well for me. Nagkakapimples pa rin ako pero due to puyat na lang, not due to dirt and oil na. Napansin ko rin nung binawasan ko yung sugar sa diet ko, nagsubside yung matinding breakouts ko

[Desie]

im giving away my diana stalder voucher (3 sessions of ultimate peel) pero cubao lang pwedeng i-avail..

sayang kasi.. fraxel ako ngayon ang wont be needing diana's service till october..

[airish_2]

Help! my face produce too much oil! as in ngayon lang nangyari  oo tinatagyawat ako before pero hindi sobrang mag oily mukha ko i don't know if ang salarin yung sunblock o yung glycolic cream na ginagamit ko yung mukha ko pwede ka magprito ang sticky pa.

[tinapay]

^glycolic tends to peel your skin, thus makes it dry.  if your face is dry, it tendency to produce more oils. so maybe that could be the culprit.

[babsi]

First off, never try to self-medicate.  Back when I was in College, probably in my senior year when subjects became more toxic and intolerable, I suffered serious breakouts all over my forehead. That was a first for me because I never really had problems with pimples before this. So I went to Imperial Dermatology in Ortigas to consult with Dr. Mike Chua (he's adorable  ). He concluded that the sudden shift of hormone density in my body caused the breakouts and recommended that I apply topical cream on them. My skin cleared up after a week. 

Moral of the story: the doctor is your friend.

Sino nakapagtry ng papulex?
