My Face is a wreck!

Okay ladies, I want your thoughts.

I feel like I have tried everything on my skin. None of my old tricks are working.

Tell me friends...what are your old wives tales about keeping skin in tip top shape?

Believe me none of you would want to see my face. Bad things happening there.

Links appreciated Surprise

 

And to keep this TTC related....I swear its my hormones.

    If I have a bad zit, I'll put toothpaste on it and let it sit there overnight.  Honestly, it totally works.

    This may sound crazy, but spray some Vetericyn on breakouts to make them heal way faster and smoother. It works on everything, so having a bottle around always comes in handy! Check you local feed store to find it!

    My acne is cystic and hormonal, and being on birth control and spironolactone worked for me. Both of which you can't be on when TTC. 7 months after quitting and my face is AWFUL. Since my acne is hormonal nothing topical cures it for me, it might just kee

    What about body acne? I started chlomid this month and did an IUI. I haven't had acne in 15 years. My face isn't broken out but my chest and back is, totally not sexy.

    What kind of toner do you use? I usually use a gentle moisturizing one but when I start to break out I switch to a "purifying toner".

    My skin has been freaking out lately as well.  I have all these annoying whiteheads that keep turning into pimples on my chin.  I have started using Juice Beaty Organics and I think it's working somewhat.  My skin typically gets super dried

    Hey ladies,

    I hear you, I kept thinking "I'm in my 30s and still breaking out like a teenager!" So frustrating.

    I didn't have cystic acne but I had constant, sore, red breakouts all over my face. Within
