Please DO let me know about the green color foam. Otherwise I would not be able to recommend anything for you.QUOTE(mygurl @ Jan 19 2007, 08:57 AM)
thanks jinyee...should i go to facial then...i found out that everytime i go facial my acne become worst ...ever heard of dermatic before...its recomemded by the beauty house that i go...
Please, do not use any products recommended by beauty house. Why? They gain profit from the sales, so they claimed the products are good. If you follow my regimen, you don't even need to go for beauty house. Why go if your skin can manage itself?Its redundant and money-wasting right?QUOTE(mikester @ Jan 19 2007, 10:49 AM)
Hi Jin Yee, I've read most of your posts and I must admit your comments are a real eye-opener for someone like me who's been battling acne for over 15 years now. Actually kinda "pai-seh" to admit.. I'm already 30 yrs old and I have really oily skin. Though I still have acne breakout once in a while, my main problems are scars and large pores thanks to my bravely fought battle with acne.
Recently, I bought a set of tea tree oil products (cleanser+toner+moisturizer) from Body Shop and intend to stick to the cleanse-tone-moisturize regimen twice daily. Really hoping that this would help reduce all the excess oil. Might get mask and facial scrub too. Since no one has asked about Body Shop products, would like to hear your opinion.

I don't have much comments on Body Shop products, since they are reputable for its NATURAL ingredients which I doubted in overall. Anyway, if you have less than 3 acnes per month, then thats mean your skin is okie with your recent skin product. So, don't change and keep using it.Recently, I bought a set of tea tree oil products (cleanser+toner+moisturizer) from Body Shop and intend to stick to the cleanse-tone-moisturize regimen twice daily.

I think I m combination skin.
It was oily in T-zone area (got black & whiteheads in around the nose area), there is a light "smile wrinkles" !! I have eye dark circles, not serious but quite apparent with my fair skin. I hardly have any pimples.
Sometimes, I felt tht my skin is itchy because of dryness. (near the ear & side face area)
I also read some articles saiding that hydration is neccesary for oily skin so that ur skin feel hydrated & won't produce so much oil ?? Is this true ??
Yes, oily skin need hydration. But why does it need hydration provided the skin has also being moisturized by it own self? Well, in my regimen, I stressed on MILD cleanser, which it did not strip the skin sebum. No dehydration will occur, so you don't need hydration right?=)It was oily in T-zone area (got black & whiteheads in around the nose area), there is a light "smile wrinkles" !!

This is serious problem when nodules occured. No, please do not take anything. Please start this regimen as soon as possible and do not add in anything so that you will be able to see result within 2.5 months. If you keep on having nodules acne, you are risking yourself for getting more scars.i nid ur help n advices again...now my acne r getting more n more terrible...after starting the regimen,stopped 4 a while..den popped out a lot...not the normal acne,it's like yellowish water inside...some r red red n big big ones..i m now using oni cetaphil n bp once per 2 days...n meanwhile consuming some direct selling chinese pills to detox the blood...
