Not sure if there is help with that. I don't touch my face and I mew whenever I remember about it. I'm like a month into taking my shit together and right now I remember about both of those things 70% of the time.
Take it easy, no need to rush.
Ayden Hughes
This might sound really stupid, but do you wear makeup? I had a lot of trouble with touching my face, but after I started wearing light makeup (bb cream, blush, maybe some powder) it made me more conscious about it because I didn't want to ruin it. I ended up being better about cleaning my skin too, because going to bed with makeup still on is disgusting

don't know about the product you posted but i switched my routine entirely to asian products such as snail serums and shit like that and my skin ist like 500% better. i really don't know why this shit isn't more popular. I literally fixed my skin entirely only by changing to asian products since i found western shit to be way too bloated with meme ingredients that do more harm than good.

well a bit of back story just so you know that it might not help you specifically: my main issue was that my skin was quite dehydrated and therefore oily and i reacted really badly to cerave and the likes (basically any heavy products containing fatty alcohols) since they just broke me out and made me more oily. then i found a gel moisturizer which my skin really liked and i realized that this kind of light/gentle product was way better for my skin. right now i use a really light gel cleanser and hyaluronic acid lotion followed by snail essence and another gel like moisturizer. in the evening i basically do the same thing except i switch the lotion for a light bha. i can't name the products rn because i simply don't remember the names on the spot. basically i'm using very light, low ph, moisturizing products and nothing strong that might irritate me. haven't found a sunscreen that works for me yet though. as for where i get them i just order from amazon here in yurop a lot of products are available for quite affordable prices idk bout the US though. if you still care i could check later exactly what the products are. just beware that i don't really have acne i just treated my skin poorly and am now in the process of rebuilding it basically and these asian products helped me a lot.

is witch hazel bad for your skin?
Benjamin Reyes
Didnt get to see if someone replied to my post a couple of threads ago so I'll just ask again.
My doctor prescribed me Retin-A / Benzoyl peroxide 5% for my acne and I have been using it for about 5 months now. I use noxzema deep pore cleanser as a face wash as well. So far I have not seen any good results and I am contemplating trying something else. Should I use a different cleanser or just go to a dermatologist?
Caleb Diaz
just go to a dermatologist
Isaiah Nguyen
all i wanna say is that going from bad skin to pretty good skin is an amazing feeling and i hope anyone struggling is able to reach that point.

Any advice on getting rid of scars? Its hard to tell due to shit pic, but I have four highly visible scars on my face.
Ryan Walker
how to get rid of red discoloration on face? like it's not really pimples just red blotches, might be acne scars
I have back acne scarring that's beyond hope. Icepick scars, coloration, the works. Should I consider getting chem peels after college? My face is passable and I use makeup to hide minor scaring there. Was on steroidal mess in high school so most acne has died down.
Kayden Miller
I got dark spots from picking at pimples making them bleed and then picking at the scabs Would a derma roller work?
Luke Sullivan
you need to go to a doctor
i have tried so many different creams and oils for removing a scar after getting my nose punched open
nothing works
go to a doctor or a skin specialist or something like that, because stuff you can buy wont do shit
im sorry user
Luis Nguyen
fuck off
Nathan Peterson
bout to cop pic related, wanted to give skincare a try so i'm diving in headfirst. my main concern is really getting rid of acne scars since my face has got the swiss cheese situation going on but i don't mind having a routine, it seems fun.
what do you guys think of these products? friend suggested them to me since we both have normal-oily skin. as for cleanser i'm using cetaphil since it's what i've always had at home but i'm looking for moisturizer and sunscreen suggestions.

lads i'm telling you. aesop. the shit costs way too much but it's worth the money. they have everything you could want.
Jeremiah Lewis
Heh heh i understood this joke
Ryder Miller
aesop is some gay shit. I'd rather buy some of that The Ordinary from Deciem compared to aesop. maybe if they spent less $$ shoving excessive, skin-irritating fragrances into their products, and used that leeway to lower the price point, they'd actually be worth it. actually, it would be more worth it if they just removed the fragrances period.

Are you that girl from couple of months ago? I'm . What do you think about this mask? I need something for blackheads. Oh and since spring is coming, could you say something about pic rel? My current sunscreen makes my skin very shiny and I don't really like it.
Wyatt King
Cool. Where are you from?
Dylan Brown
Is it worth pairing their soaps with their aftershaves?
I know Tabac sticks around for a long fucking time and that's what I like.
Logan Robinson
My forehead and nose (only those areas) get oily like an hour after I was my face and the pores look big and puffy, what can I do to help this? Toner?
Thomas Barnes
I bought their Jermyn aftershave once, it was like $22. It is a nice aftershave, but doesn't influence the shaving result. Not worth the price imo I usually use a cheap $5 aftershave balm with (little or no alcohol because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older) and don't notice a difference in skin color/quality/impurities.
use the saved money to buy paulas choice aha/bha exfoliator for literally DRASTIC changes

I just started using biore watery gel sun screen as part of my daily routine. I read that since it's not water proof, you can sweat it right off. Are all non-waterproof sun screens like this?

don't wash it off in the morning then you dingus
Carson Evans
I'm not sure if you guys really deal in this, but I'll give it a shot anyway:
I have a good routine for my face, and I don't naturally get much acne on my face anyway but I have mild-to-moderate acne on my back and upper arms. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to combat this?
>pic related, found on Google but mine is similar
Mason King
in shower: wash hair first then body then face dry in the reverse order
10% BP and salicylic acid pads sort me out
if skin is dry get a heavy night cream moisturizer and cover yourself in it like a slug
Nolan Ortiz
Purging after applying a mask is normal and gets better...r-right? It's been 2 days since I applied a charcoal mask and when I woke up this morning I saw a bunch of tiny white heads. Tiny whiteheads is as bad as it gets, right? Right?
Benjamin Hall
I had perfectly fine skin for most of my early teenage years, but about a year ago I got super red, itchy, inflamed pimples on my right side cheek and chin. Me, being the fuck head that I am, decided it was a good idea to scratch and pick at them. Although my new acne in that area isn't as terrible as it once was, I have this nasty scarring all around and have no clue how to fix it. I went to a dermatologist and he gave me a benzoyl peroxide night cream and I've been using for several months now with no fix it remedy.
Any ideas that might help? I don't even care to fix the scarring, I just want the red marks gone

put your fingers on the top and bottom of your nose and squeeze lightly, preferably after a shower when the pores have opened up

Some tips for preventing spots/acne: (that worked for me)
change/wash pillow case regularly keep your face clean (wash two times a day with lukewarm water) avoid touching your face and popping spots drink green tea 3-5 times a week or more if condition worsens, go to the doctors or dermatologist and finally, patience.. acne won't disappear overnight
AM Cerave Moisturizing Cleanser Stridex Red Paula's Choice 8% AHA Cerave in the tub Sunscreen (If sunny out, it's cloudy weather so far.)
PM Cerave Moisturizing Cleanser Shave (Once every 3 days) Stridex Red Paula's Choice 8% AHA Queen Helen (On days I shave) Acne.org benzyl Peroxide Cerave in the tub
What should I change /fa? I've hit a bit of a plateau.
Camden Sanchez
Dermarolling. Accutane. Change the sheet on your pillow literally every night, or use a fresh towel over it.
You're wasting a lot of money with all that stuff.
Jaxson Diaz
You should get something called Clindoxyl.
Hunter Baker
AM Oil Cleanser Foaming Cleanser Konjac sponge cream exfoliator Toner Stridex or other BHA/AHA exfoliant because I have oily skin, I usually clean that off and I'm done there.
PM, maybe every other day Cleanser Toner Chemical exfoliator Clay mask Jojoba oil/Argan oil Serum, essence, or sheet mask Cream/moisturizer
snail essence has fixed scars of mine, even cuts I get heal quick with it. Dunno why anons are shilling against it, I guess everyone reacts differently to it.
Most of my products are Korean, because I'm not fucking stupid, but I use a lot of organic stuff as well that I can get at the pharmacy near me.
Zachary Rogers
Pore powder, and oil cleansing sheets. A pore minimizing toner could work, but there are a few chemicals you can get that work to reduce pore size, but that's a genetic thing... you just have to keep doing stuff every few days to shrink them/minimize their appearance... otherwise, well, I've had luck with powder.
John James
Your derm is a fucking idiot. Benzoyl peroxide is for acne, not acne scars.
Joseph Hughes
Thanks. Chicago land area
Hudson Powell
Yeah I am lol. That mask is pretty good. I use it on my nose area when I mostly get black heads. The peel off masks that are all he craze right now are super bad for your skin. Especially if they physically hurt, you're definitely doing some trauma to the skin. So wipe off masks are a lot safer. I actually love the sunscreen. It dries on matte, just use a little and shake it really well
Connor Fisher
also do you live in another country? the us packaging looks a little different. definitely the same formula
Nathan Nguyen
For active acne i suggest going on a low dosage of accutane(20mg-40mg) and for scars and hiperpigmentation i sugest time and dermarolling( you cant dermaroll while on accutane you have to wait 3 months after your course) >Benzoil peroxide fucks your skin up leaving it even more irritated >Cut Diary and Processed food and high satured fat foods (Find out what is causing the acne >Change your pillow case more frequently >Drink more water > If you have oily skin use a cleanser, if not use moistrizer and sunscreen( helps hiperpigmentation)

Cooper Nelson
I'm 24 years old but people have always told me I look older, like in my late twenties. Honestly tired of this shit. Had a friend told me it's probably because of my expression marks.
Can retinoids help with this? What's more, I've read very conflicting articles about all these anti-aging products, most of them stating they don't work or that changes are barely noticeable.
Any of you guys had any experience with this?
Nolan Nelson
I think I have generally shitty skin genetics. I got dry skin, keratosis pilaris, ass zits, occasional eczema...what do? Just continue with all kinds of different lotions and shit?
Hudson Fisher
I want to start doing home chemical peels to fix my acne/ice pick scars. Anyone got experience doing any peels and have any recommendation on which peels to buy?
Dylan Russell
Witch hazel with a very small amount of alcohol is a terrific aftershave, if you shave. Otherwise, it's just a bare-bones toner. It can be very drying if you don't moisturize properly.
Austin Cox
What's your diet like? How much do you exercise and how much do you weigh? Drink more water?
