Hi,
I am 30 and need advice on my skin care/skin health maintenance.
I used to have acute acne problem in my teen-age years. I still have breakout sometimes. I had used almost every single thing on m face to get rid of acne. My skin has lost the smoothness. I understand I cannot make up for the past. But is there any way I can take care of it from now on. I mean so that my skin looks soft/fresh.
Also I have kind of black circle around my lip and chin. I think I have combination skin. Can you please help me with these all?
And suggest me a good skin care product with the ways to use them properly.
Thanks |

Hi and welcome gavinol, You would probably benefit from using a Vitamin C product in the morning. Look for one that contains l-ascorbic acid. I use and like very much the Skinceuticals C E Ferulic serum. They have another product, Pholetrin, that is good for oily skin. Then top that off with a good physical sunscreen. I like Dermaquest SPF 30 Zinclear but others on the forum like Burnout Eco Sensitive (I have tried this and like it too). Still others like the new Devita sunscreen.
At night you might like to start using Retin A. There is a lot of information on this forum about Retin A so I would do a search on the forum to find lots of helpful information on using Retin A. |

I had the same problems and went to see a professional about it because it got to the point that I was getting bruises on my face!
You should go see a dermatologist. |
