^Oo nga e all they have is yung facial wash yata. Tsaka I think the panoxyl cream has 4% benzoyl peroxide na lang.

hindi nag-work sa akin yung benzac ac 5%.. parang ang bagal umimpis nung mga cystic pimples ko. mas effective pa yung panoxyl kaya lang nag out of stock naman sa mercury at sa watsons, kaya nag-end up ako sa SOS. luckily, hiyang ako sa SOS, and swerte rin kasi SOS is cheaper than benzac and panoxyl.

@ireneeey:
Since you can't do anything about your uniform, try your best na lang to avoid wearing snug shirts and shirts made of synthetic material when you go out during the weekends, and try mo na magsuot ng cotton na sando when you're at home para presko.  Try to stick to natural fibers like cotton para your skin can breathe more easily.

I don't think it's a good idea na mag-exfoliate ka every other day, medyo overkill naman yung every other day, kawawa naman yung skin mo.  What do you use to exfoliate ba, do you use stuff like yung mga body wash/shower gel na may beads (ex. St. Ives), do you use loofah or bath mitts, do you use chemical peels, etc.?  Kasi this might be another factor that's aggravating your skin's condition.  I've tried using yung mga commercially available facial wash and mga body wash/shower gel na may beads and na-irritate lang yung skin ko and made the breakouts worse.  A couple of my friends had the same experience, while some were lucky enough to not be affected.  It depends kung hiyang sayo, so whatever exfoliating method you use, I suggest you proceed with caution.  It may seem like a good idea to slough it all off, but if you overdo it you could rub your skin raw and make things worse.  Better hold off on exfoliating the area and talk to a dermatologist about it if you can.

I've never liked using baby powder even when I was a kid, so it's not part of my routine.  Di ko alam if may effect ba siya sa breakouts mo or not.  Why don't you try na wag muna gumamit ng baby powder for a couple of months to see if it helps?

Anong anti-acne gel/cream ang nagamit mo na before?  Sa chest and back ko I've tried using erythromycin gel, and benzoyl peroxide cream and gel, but of the three e I liked using benzoyl peroxide gel the most kasi para sa akin mas madali siya to deal with, so I stuck with that.  If you haven't used any of these before, I suggest you try applying it to a small area of your skin muna to check if your skin can tolerate it.  May different concentrations/strengths yung anti-acne gel/cream, di ko na maalala kung anong strength ng erythromycin gel, but if I remember correctly e I started out with 5% strength benzoyl peroxide tapos I eventually moved up to 10%.  I don't know if kaya ng skin mo yun, some people can only tolerate the lowest strength, so do a spot test muna.  If you don't experience any adverse reactions within a day, try mo i-apply on a larger section.  It took my skin a couple of days to adjust to the benzoyl peroxide.  Nung first time ko siya gamitin feeling ko ang kati ng skin ko.  I applied it every other day nung una, tapos as my skin got used to it, naging every day na, and eventually inincrease yung strength ng benzoyl peroxide na ginamit ko.

Basta ang routine ko nun was after ko maligo sa umaga and gabi, I would use the clindamycin solution on my chest and back, tapos I let that air-dry.  It takes less than 5 minutes lang naman para matuyo.  After that, naglalagay ako ng anti-acne gel sa areas na may pimples.  Nag-aapply ako ng thin layer over the general area tapos naglalagay ako ng normal amount on top of the pimples especially dun sa malalaki.  DO NOT let the gel/cream get on your areolas and nipples, it'll likely irritate the skin there.  And if you are going to use benzoyl peroxide gel/cream on your chest area, try to avoid na maarawan or gumamit ka ng sunblock if hindi mo maiwasan maarawan.  Please take note din that there's a slight chance that it might bleach/discolor your clothing.  Kaya when I was using it, ang suot ko na mga pambahay were either white/light-colored or yung mga okay lang masira, and I couldn't always apply it in the mornings kasi baka masira yung suot ko.

I'm not sure if this routine will work for you, in the end hiyangan din e.  Good luck sis!

THank you sis! thanks for the info! ittry ko na nga lang talaga pagtiyagaan to. tas ang nakakainis pa pag may bagong patubo na pimple, ang kati-kati. :( tas everyday pa yata maybagong lumalabas. Hay, di ko talaga alam solution dito. feel ko nga nagttrigger din yung pagka-balbon ko. :(

Anyway, I use benzoyl peroxide as my acne gel before pag may pimple sa face especially a week before my period. Pero ngayon mas feel kong effective yung Celeteque acne gel. Tas yung benzoyl yun nalang pinapahid ko sa chest ko ngayon.

By the way, pano mo pala natanggal yung scars?

Just last week nagkaroon ng pimple sa leeg ko, just below my left ear. Hindi naman talaga ako nagkakaroon ng pimple kahit sa face kaya nagtaka talaga ako. And dahil nga sa leeg minsan nakakamot ko at natatamaan ng suklay eh sobrang sakit pa naman pag natatamaan. Tapos napansin ko na lumalaki at parang may nana sa loob, dahil sa hindi na ako mapakali pinakialam ko. Kinabukasan nagulat na lang ako dahil namaga na siya at red an ang skin, parang meron ng bukol sa leeg ko. Sana hindi ko nalang pinakialaman. Ano kayang gagawin ko?

for Acne problem, you may want to try Human Nature Products: Acne Defense Solution Gel. I tried it myself, having acne and pimple problem a week before and after period. It is very effective, it contains tea tree oil extract.

sisses, is it normal na after mong magpa-facial nagbbreakout ka the next and succeeding days? :( Nangyayari ba sa inyo yung post-facial breakout? although di naman talaga ka-grabe, basta yung mga prinick sakin hindi ko sure kung hindi ba na-extract nang maayos or what. is it purging or a way of cleaning? iba-iba kasi nababasa ko online pero sabi purging/way of cleaning daw. nangyayari ba sa inyo to?

Grabe na yong acne ko so I went to see a derma. Walang kwenta, just waste of time. Unang bungad when she saw my face eh "gusto mo I dermaroller natin?". Sabi ko huwag muna e hello ang lalaki pa ng pimples ko tapos dermaroller kaagad? Kabwisit land di man lang nagtanong about my history, just took out her prescription pad and wrote prescriptions na lahat available lang sa pharmacy nila (except the antibiotics). Tapos balik daw ako after 2 weeks. Grabe na consultation yan di man lang umabot 5 minutes!

Same experience, naka 2 dermatologist consultations ako. Nothing happened, nag worst pa lalo ang face condition ko dahil sa mga topical products nila. Kaya nawala na ang trust ko sa mga dermatologist. For us, acne prone skin, we really have to experiment and try to look for the product na hihiyang sa atin. Then pag nahanap mo na, just stick to it. Don't try any products na lalo na online products, dun ako nag ka-break out sa maldita bleaching cream. Nagstart sia ng December, then nagpa-derma ako ng January and February, nothing happened, last 2 weeks ng February, I decided to stop yung mga ni-recommend ng mga Derma. And I decided to try these products, sila yung pinakamaraming good reviews na nabasa ko online and this help me a lot. Almost everyday and every night ako nagbabasa online for 3 months now, to search on how to cure acne and pimple marks.

I'm using lactacyd blue, ACV toner and San-ing Sulfur Cream now, I got amazing results after a week lang. Hindi na ko tinubuan nag bagong pimples, I'm now working on my pimple marks. I am on my 3rd week na using this products and I can say It's amazing. Then nag exfoliate ako using honey and baking soda twice a week. Really amazing results mga sissies.. Goodluck to us. TIA

Anyway, I use benzoyl peroxide as my acne gel before pag may pimple sa face especially a week before my period. Pero ngayon mas feel kong effective yung Celeteque acne gel. Tas yung benzoyl yun nalang pinapahid ko sa chest ko ngayon.

By the way, pano mo pala natanggal yung scars?

Hay, I know how you feel, kairita no?  :(  Para siyang kagat ng lamok na ang kati-kati and ang sarap kamutin even though you know you shouldn't.  Ang hirap e, sometimes di ka mapakali and you just wish na it would disappear ASAP.

Sa tingin mo what are the other triggers for your breakouts?  Ganyan din kasi ako, pag malapit na yung period ko mas may tendency ako magbreakout, but meron din ako iba pang napapansin na triggers.  Like before when I had breakouts sa chest and back ko, napansin ko na pag madalas ako pinagpapawisan or naiinitan, pag kulob na my skin can't breathe like when I'm wearing a turtleneck or a tight-fitting shirt, sigurado yan na bukas na bukas e may panibagong zits.

Try mo rin tignan if allergic ka ba sa products na ginagamit mo (ex. shampoo, conditioner, soap/body wash, toothpaste, etc.).  I noticed din kasi na yung area ng back ko that comes in contact with my hair e mas madalas magkaroon ng breakouts.  First, I tried just putting my hair up para it doesn't come in contact with my back anymore, and that helped a bit.  Then sinabihan ako ng derma ko na magswitch to milder shampoos like Johnson's baby shampoo and to stop using conditioner.  Mas malaki yung improvement sa breakouts when I did this, ang kapalit nga lang was mas mahirap naman i-manage yung buhok ko.  After a few months of this, di ko din natiis, gumamit ako ulit ng conditioner, but ang ginagawa ko na lang is naka-bend ako when I rinse off the shampoo and the conditioner, so my hair and yung water na pinagbanlawan doesn't come in contact with my chest, back and face as much as possible.  Meron naman akong friend that doesn't use scented soap or soap loaded with moisturizers kasi nagbrebreakout siya pag ganun.

Check mo rin if may kinakain ka ba that doesn't agree with your skin.  I have friends na nagbrebreakout when they eat a lot of junk food, and ako napansin ko na when I consume a lot of sugar (candy, softdrinks) mas may tendency ako magkaroon ng pimples.

Sa scars naman, medyo hirap din ako diyan kasi super tagal bago mawala ang scars sa skin ko, if I'm even lucky enough that they go away at all.  It's in my genes, ganun na talaga.  :-[   Iniiwasan ko na lang na maarawan para less likely na magdarken yung scars and I try to minimize the breakouts para di na madagdagan pa.  Swerte ako na yung scars sa chest ko e hindi kasing dami as the ones sa back ko, and most of them have disappeared on their own.  Yung scars sa back ko ang marami pa rin up to now.  Ginamitan ng chemical peel ng derma yung back and chest ng kapatid ko, and it helped lighten most of the scars and made some disappear, pero ako mismo di ko pa na-try.  Some people try lightening their scars by using lemons, di ko pa rin to na-try personally, but I'm intrigued.

^ Regarding sa breakouts after mo magpa-facial, I'm not sure kung anong cause sa case mo sis.  May pinahid ba sila na cream or something sa face mo nung nagpa-facial ka that you may have been allergic to kaya ganyan?  Possible din na na-infect yung mga prinick nila sa face mo kaya ganyan, baka napasukan ng dumi from alikabok or pawis or something.  May binilin ba yung derma sayo after mo magpa-facial?

Hello mga sissies pajoin naman po...



Nakakapagod na magkaroon ng pimples/acne!  :'( minsan nawawala tapos nakukuha pang bumalik hays nakakaloka. Lalo na pag incoming si period! Anyways mga sis, kagagamit ko lang ng Teranex glycolic acid soap. Naghahanap ako ng mga reviews regarding this pero konti lang sila. Nakabasa na ako sa ibang thread na ginagamit to so sinubukan ko. Hindi ko na muna ginamit yung maxipeel exfo cream #2 kasi parang hindi effective and so tingin ko nagpupurge ngayon yung mukha ko... At dahil na rin kay period. Hays... Tingin nyo ba okay lang gamitin yung teranex soap tapos maxipeel? Although low ang content ng glycolic sa both products baka kasi mas magalit yung mga pimples ko. Sa ngayon i use moringa o hair and skin oil tapos nilagyan ko ng katialis on top. Effective naman tong katialis kaya lang parang naimmune na ako... Takot naman ako gumamit ng tret.. :/

I am so fed up with my pimples.. ayaw ako tantanan.. nagstart nung December lang naman, maybe due to stress and puyat. I stopped drinking pills din kasi (Diane 35).. so ngayon start na ulit ako mag-pills. Ayoko na.. suko na ko sa pimples ko. Grr!

I use derm c to lighten up my pimple marks. Kaya lang lately pansin ko di na siya ganun ka-effective sa kin.. bagal na ng effect.. sa dermstrata ako bumibili ng derm c.  I usually spot apply it on my dried pimple. In 2 months bura na yun pimple mark parang magic.

Sabi yun revlite daw nakakabura din ng pimple marks kaso P3500 per session and after 4-5 sessions daw bago makita effect. So that would be 3-4 months lalabas di ba? So tyagaan ko na lang sa derm c. P300+ lang yun unlike revlite na P3500 per session. Hehe.

Okay ba ang cortisone shots? I have a cystic one again na pinilit ko nanaman imurder kagabi. Grabe, anything but cystic talaga. Ayun, todo butas nanaman ako - and thankfully may lumabas na nana pero feel ko may natira. 

Grabe, I don't care if magsugat sugat, mag scar pa mukha ko basta wag lang cystic.  Help please :( Is there any way cystics can get to a head. Magaling ako mag-deal with scars, kaya I dont mind murdering my face :(
Try Centella gel from Dermstrata. It's especially formulated for cystic pimples..

Hi sis, ganyan din nangyari sa akin sa Derm C. Try Shulammite and HHN Sunflower oil combo. Nilalagay ko lang yung oil sa face at night. Mas effective na ata to kesa sa Derm C.

hi mga sis. im gonna say na madami talaga akong pimples before sa neck area sa ilalim ng face. as in madami like cystic tapos kumpol kumpol pa. i recommend yung jericho. expensive pero it can really last you 8 to 12 months at most! ginagamit ko yung dead sea acne soap nila tapos yung purifying mud mask nila. everyday ko yung dead sea acne soap nila tapos every 3 days naman yung mask. 1 year and 2 months na ako nagamit. wala na. tapos i used BN Scar cream para mawala scars. Drying yung soap so need mo ng moisturizer na hindi oily at nagclog ng pores. hindi ako nagsisi sa binili ko.
