QUOTE(yikomaru @ Dec 31 2010, 07:33 AM)
21 years old. i start having pimple since 15 or some where around there. at that time i felt really scared and try all sorts of method to cure the pimples. My mum bought me creams, gels, all sorts of expensive stuffs, i even went for alot of the beauty salon. which cost me bucks...

until this year(2010) june i think, i realized something. because i've been suffering stress from my college and i neglected my daily beauty routine. so i kept my set of branded expensive moisturizers and creams....and i ended up using a very cheap branded cleansing tool (those that cost about rm 20 normal cleanser) and a rm14.50 toner lol(i don't wanna mention the brand ,coz doesn't wan people to think i'm promoting). Coz they say if u can't commit and use an expensive product continuously, then don't use it, because you'll waste it or there will not be any effect.

the fact is, the less i care about my face....my pimples seems to cure more.
my face used to fill with redish dots and some scars. Due to my negligence care for my face, my pimples reduced, my scars recovers. (maybe because if we careless, so we tend to not nuke our face)

the condition of my face sort of improved, not to those baby like skin condition, but atleast there's no red dots and scar on my face. I find my skin has whiteheads( i'm not sure if they're white heads or wat), alot of em, and if i don't squeeze them..i doubt anyone would notice them.( because i have to use my hands to stretch my face then only i can see those white dots. where i presume they're oils). So i didn't really bother to treat them.

So i stop using expensive stuffs, and stop to try and treat my face when i notice tiny bits of oil (that's what i do last time, i squeeze em when ever i notice em). And i actually maintained a skin without pimples. healthy or not....i don't know. as far as i know, i don't need to cover here cover there with make up when ever i go out.

i actually made a test. my friend bought a very damn expensive korea mask....which is cocoa ingredient and stuffs......which cost around..rm 100+ . and the person who sold it to my friend say it can cure pimples....and make ur pore small and shyts.....and something like even jolin uses it....lol..

i tried to use it (actually not test la, just tempted to have better skin when he bought it). after 1 week of using it......my face started to have break outs....now my face had become like what it used to be lol....

SO! what i'm trying to say is that....don't push ur skin too hard....if they have pimples...or break outs....leave it there and it will go off...don't try too hard to treat it ( like i did)with all the expensive creams/gels/masks, some time it will make it worse. lol, i'm just sharing my experiences ,maybe it only works on me. cheers

This is a classic example for those who have aggravated acne due to skincare products irritation, which was mentioned in early stage of the thread.

Sometimes, the basic and simple way is infact an easier way out. nod.gif

Actually you can still get Elicina in M'sia. It is being sold in pocket size (20ml, i think), at Aster Springs or Dermalogica branches at RM89 each. They don't have the 40ml size or Elicina Plus.

Well, I think I have similiar problems with everyone who visit this thread : ACNE!

My skin is oily skin type and since young, I had oily skin and 1-2 pimples within like 1-2 months, so i dont really bother about it.

then came to early 2009 and i started to have severe acne after using SIMPLE for sensitive skin. Everytime after wash, i would felt my face's skin is tight and i felt that it's too harsh on my skin.. and I changed several cleanser which i couldnt remember anymore..

come to middle of 2009, my acne boomed my whole face and i decided to go for one skin clinic downtown melaka. well, my case seemed to him as like normal case and I was prescribed roacutanne and tetracyline. well, after months of those medicine, my skin was back how i was young until early of 2010.. Everyone was asking what I did to get such good skin despite those acned days.. and i know its because of roacutanne and tetracycline..

but during mid of 2010, my acne started to come back one by one.. like this bumps with no puss and later developed into multi-head bumped and white head acne.. and I had this situation on my face right now.. CNY is coming and I hope this can better by then..

My family doctor suggested me to go for Minocin 50 which I have yet to try and i used neutrogena acne prone skin cleanser + BP and now wishing everything will go back how i used to..

so, I wanna ask if anyone tried MINOCIN before? maybe Jinyee can advice if the side effects are similiar to roacutanne? LETS FIGHT THIS EVIL ACNE!

I hope this is not too silly a question..

Say, you only have acnes on your left cheek, so you apply BP only at the left cheek.

What about the right cheek? Do you still moisturize or leave it like that?

Means half face BP half face moisturizer?

hi everyone.. i'm new here..i'm a student and I stay at penang. Can anyone tell me where can I find Panoxyl 2.5 in Penang (island).I've been looking at most guardians and watsons here (and all pharmacies around USM) but non of them have the stock. I even asked if they could order for me but they all said that they can't do it. icon_question.gif

I've had acne problems since i was in form 3. After form 5 my acne got really serious (big, painful and with puss). I went to see a dermatologist who prescribed me with hormone pills and some good products (dalacin-T, retacnyl etc). My skin was acne free (not scar-free) during the treatment. But after the treatment, it all come back. However, the big painful ones do not appear as often as before. I really hope I can try this regimen. I think my skin can tolerate BP because I had once used Oxy5 when I was in form 4 and it does help to dry my acne (until after 2 months it starts to peels my skin a bit and I don't want to continue tormenting my skin tongue.gif ).

Thanks in advance for all your help and concern.. smile.gif

I used to have pimples on my forehead and between my eyebrows. So I tried using moisturizers and pimple creams, but it only made me peel, and sometimes my pimples on my forehead appear inflamed. I got whiteheads on my cheek too.

So I'd be skipping from brand to brand, trying to find the prefect moisturizer plus pimple cream; I tried everything plu organics stuff. Didn't work and my face got hyperpigmentation due to scarring.

So after I got my salary from working full time, i bought nearly a whole line of Shiseido's Aqualabel, a combination of the mositurizing+acne+whitening range as recommended and for the pimples I used eryderm form the pharmacist.

After 2-3 months of using -not too religiously, sometimes once a day or accidenntally skip one day, but mostly got put la

My pimples disappeared, nearly all my scars disappeared and my white heads also disappeared. Lol Now my skin is nearly flawless, except during period, a few will come out and leave scars, but usually their serum will take care of it hehehe

I agree that when your skin is dry, it tends to become oily and you will get acne. I suppose this is the main problem with some parts of my skin. And I dislike oxy....not effective +makes skin peel due to overdrying

Dear all,

I have been started to use back Elicina Plus about 2 weeks ago and I encountered some improvement on my pimples scar. I have stopped to apply it for about 1 week plus before this due to redness. This is the 3rd time I try it again and look like it gives positive result where scar mark getting lighter and small pimples subsided faster. Will update again on my progress. Hope this help.

Personally for me, I have this terrible break-outs when my period is not in time...Currently, I have seen changes<better cahnges, i mean> on my skin since I start using Nutox concentrate serum, with a milk -base cleanser for makeup cleanser and I use Nutox bird collagen moisturiser for day.

Actually, it bcome more better when I start drinking Firm-Up from Lennox, but when I start change it to Etsu, no changes at all.

I tried Renugen also, but not so good changes that I could notice; compared to Firm-Up. But still, my acne problem could not be stopped.My cheeks and my T-zone all covered with acne scars..

thanks to Jinyee, Now I am trying cetaphil and i noticed all my 'active' acne become small and its not hurt and no pain when u touch it.some of them faded.Will see full result this February after 3 weeks using Cetaphil.


Last facial i did before I start reading Jinyee regimen, was on 8 december..
you can read my 'excited' experience there..
