Adult acne worse because of mini pill 😢
Below are pictures of my skin.
I have ALWAYS had adult acne. I eat fairly clean and I only drink water and I drink a lot of it! I have a bad habit of using harsh products on my skin because that used to be the only thing that could clear up my acne. I know it’s bad though so I’m looking for good products.
Skin type: oily
Things for sensitive skin make me break out even worse
Clearest skin: on Nuvaring
Ok skin: during pregnancy
Worst skin: on mini pill
Current routine:
1) Wash with Neutrogena Acne Stress
Control Scrub
2) Rubbing alcohol on severe breakouts (I know, I know)
3) Moisturize with Clean&Clear; dual moisturizer (supposed to moisturize and clear acne)
That routine used to work for me but since pregnancy and especially after the mini pill it has just gotten embarrassingly worse 😞
