Acne products

[rydra_wong]

Okay, I've tried most things, up to and including Accutane, and in my thirties, I've more or less resigned myself to never completely growing out of my acne (cystic acne on skin that manages to be oily and sensitive simultaneously, lovely).

But I thought I'd ask the comm on the off chance, to see if anyone has any magic recs for products I haven't heard of.

Any secrets out there?

I haven't tried the Effaclar Duo, but my guess would be that the Effaclar K is more aimed at prevention.

Also, if you're anything like me, your diet is strongly related to your acne; it might be worth going to see a specialist who can give advice on what you should avoid. I break out every time I touch anything that has dairy in it, although unfortunately I love cheese and yoghurt too much to cut them from my diet completely, so I've resigned myself to the occasional relapse. :)

*g* I've only just worked out what eating habits keep my energy levels stable and fuel my climbing properly, so at the moment I'm just trying to stick to that and not tinker further!

(Mmm, Greek yoghurt.)
