kys pizza face

Hahaha, that's ONE LUCKY monkey, Dave. Mind if I save this one? Hahaha

Protip: if you have it around your neck, jaw and cheeks, chances are it's just ingrown hairs and not acne.

I switched to an electric shaver, it's not as close as a razor but I don't get those nasty pimples anymore. Some people are just prone to ingrown hairs.

Daily reminder that acne is a DIET-RELATED DISORDER.
Fix your diet, and your skin will become clear.
No indigenous tribe has acne because their diet is clean as can be.

Accutane bois

bitches dont give no fucks about acne so long as your tall white and muscular.
t. black dude with acne

black guy acne isnt blaring red tho?

Tall white muscular bouncer here, can confirm. Still get called sexy and hot all the time.

Start fasting, worked for me

Started going to the sauna every other day and immediately rinsing my face. It works really well but I stopped for a week and it all came right back

does anyone have any advice for taking care of acne scars? my face is fucked up because i was careless

if you confuse ingrown hairs for acne you havent seen real acne before

I suspect i have this too.
How long does it take to heal tho?

Microneedling

stop and acne will go away

this
do nofap

This is genuinely true, I'm 6ft3 skinnyfit, above average face and still get mires. Though my acne is quite mild and only on forehead and chin.

>collagen supplement
Digestion breaks it down into it's fundamental amino acids, you high school dropout. Your body produces all the collagen you need, unless you're old as fuck.

>lathering your face in so much vitamin A you end up looking like a leather handbag instead of fixing the core problem which is hormonal imbalance

how to fix hormonal imbalance

masturbation cause hormone imbalance

so the ultimate cure is just to stop spanking it

Smoking weed also disrupts hormones and causes acne.

Get out of puberty, exercise, sleep properly, eat right (especially foods high in vitamin A), drink a lot of water, get a lot of sun. The standard advice, it's not bullshit. The only exceptions where this will not work are if you have an actual skin condition which can cause serious or cystic acne, in which case you need a doc.

how long does the puberty hold by doc's standards?
over 25 years old or so?

Varies from person to person, many people still have imbalanced caused by the latter end of puberty well into their 20s. It's mostly the reason why women typically have more acne than men, especially from late 20s to late 30s, since women's hormones go crazy for all of their pre-menopausal life. You don't notice it because of all the paint on their faces, which also doesn't help.

I've recently started using face cream, it's this natio brand or whatever. I have also been cutting down on touching my face. Acne has gotten better for sure.

Wash face with cold water and clean hand towel
Try it with dry clean towel
Wash hair in shower with cold water
Never get warm water on your face or hair
Stop wanking
Stop eating shitty food like chocolate

Every fucking time, there's atleast one guy who has no clue about acne

Accutane

Morning- Goats Milk soap, vitamin C serum with a lightweight moisturizer (la Roche Posay)
Evening- Characol face wash, rose water tonic, Retinol cream with the same light weight moisturizer.

ignore everyone esle
stop eating dairy
get clear skin

This is the best answer. Used to have chronic, painful cystic acne. Finished 6 months of Accutane a few months ago and haven't had a single blemish since

I use Cetaphil as my soap. That's it.

What exfoliator do you guys use ?

Which electric shaver do you use. I have this exact issue.

So I recently got some spots due to my beard (I couldn't really grow a full beard until this year), I've decided to keep it 100% shaven from now on but are there any facial cleansers I can use to get rid of the spots that already accumulated or will they go away with time?

Can someone help, so I got rid of my acne simply from just eating right and stopped spanking and haven't gotten a pimple in like 3 months maybe but I still have like red spots where the acne was, some people tell me you have to wait it out but is it possible to get rid of it faster

just change your pillow :^)

lol nigger

Definitely some people have it worse, but here’s what worked for me:
Consistent clean diet
Good hygiene, especially washing pillow
Tea tree oil

Inconsistent lifestyles also cause imbalance. The more you eat a consistent diet, get consistent sleep and exercise, etc. the better. It’s why almost everyone who starts lifting or does GOMAD gets some acne.

Not him but if you look on the wire cutter they have good recommendations. I think mine is a Phillips. Definitely make sure yours can shave while plugged in (without charging first). Otherwise battery will die at the worst time guaranteed.

>acne
are y'all 13 still?

derma rolling every 2-4 weeks + vitamin c serum + bio oil

It will take 6+ months

Sun makes acne worse, stupid.

Just doesn't show up as much on tan skin

yr bf cum

>Sun makes acne worse, stupid.
no...

Same here, cystic acne is the worst. Diet and being clean won't do shit. Accutane is the best treatment, worth the secondary effects.

Yes. Do your research before posting on my board ever again.

Uv kills bascteria
Vit d reduces inflammation

How does sun make acne worse? Care to actually give a reason?

I'd advice anyone here to at least try to eat foods with a lower glycemic load. I recently cut out a lot of refined breads, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, and even trans fats as I heard it can cause insulin resistance.

TL;DR read into acne connections between acne, blood sugar, and insulin.

Sun has rays
Acne is characterized by raised bumps
More sun = more rays = more raised bumps

autism

This. It is genetic, but you can still majorly control it by eliminating most the sugar from your diet.

Benzoyl Peroxide 2.0% and a moisturizer with UV blocker is doing me wonder desu.
Dunno if I should get a exfoliator though.

lmfao this brainlet

unironically this cured my chronic bacne

Do you have any sources for this, especially the tribes thing?

3 days of not eating and drinking ANYTHING would clean this.

Autophagy

Three weeks on it here; how long before results?

it gets worse for about a month then you will see progress

t.just finished

We really need a tier list when it comes to skin care products

Except don't tan or get lots of sun. That's terrible advice. UVA and UVB both age your skin like leather, and literally ever acne product ever makes your skin even more susceptible to damage by increasing cell turnover. If you use Retina, Salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or anything like that, you should be using sunscreen every day on your face and avoiding exposure.

types 1,3 primarily. this totally helped me so much getting over residual acne. get 1kg of powder and youll be good for about 2 months with 10-15g a day

no, that will literally destory your hormone levels, only a fucking retard would think nofap does anything positive at all

Body: loofah
Face: some local store stuff but feels really nice

I look better than I ever have :)

dig out the hair and it should disappear pretty fast. So god damn relieving plucking those fuckers out. Its crazy how long some of the bastards are

lactic acid and TCA chemical peel (from home)

or go to a dermatologist/cosmetics place and have microdermabrasion. Read up on each option thoroughly first

I wish I had an acne qt and I could lick and kiss her pocked mark face as she squirms in embarrassment and then proceed to cum on her face.

I mean I guess my disgusting face keeps me humble. I only have myself to blame for it.

microneedling my nigga

I'll look into that

The only valid advice is seeing a dermatologist. I got a doxycycline prescription and started using Cerave shit with Blue Lizard sunscreen. Nothing has cleared my skin up faster.

I assume people nowadays have alot more acne and worse skin than people did lets say 500 years ago, why is that?

You may need probiotics and other gut healing supplements. There is a possibility that your skin issues caused by your colon.

how long did it take user?
i got doxy with some cream too for 6 weeks and it helped a little bit but still hasn't cleared it completely

i got 2 weeks left

Because far more people today live until puberty.

That sucks user. Life gets better. And you should still check in with dermatologists, there could be improvements to the science and other ways to deal.

Yea, that how the body uses it you bitch.

Do accutane/roacctuane/isotretinoin (its all the same just different names)

I am on my first month of this and I have high hopes. My skin is no longer oily and looks much better, but there is still a few pimples here and there, however this is just part of the purging period. In a few days I will up my dosage for another month, then up one more time the month after that and then several months of 60 mg a day.

Curing acne is difficult, and there are no quick and easy fixes. Accutane is probably the only treatment that can guarantee results. Everything else is shit, antibiotics, different topical creams etc is all bull.

Used to have acne so tried washing my face everyday with soaps and moisturizers and all that shit and as soon as I switched to just washing my face with water in the shower all of my acne went away and now my face is clear.

dont use hot water when showering and dont show longer than 15 min

don't fucking drink to much milk I was drinking a lot of 4% it gave me a lot of bad acne

holy shit you just gave me a new fetish

>be 24
>work out 3-4 times a week
>sleep on a regular schedule 6/7 days
>eat well with minimal sugar and enough pate to guarantee high vitamin A
>drink enough water that people at work notice
>eh on the sun

Still got red blotches and regularly get actual spots. It's not as bad as it could be, but there's limits.

From what I've read the collegen supplement stuff has been debunked. I saw a shit ton of advertising for it in Japan for women's skin care though

Eat cleaner, drink more water, avoid stress, sleep well on clean sheets. Speak to a dermatologist if you can instead of Jow Forums

Ironic, it became worse when I did nofap
