05/09/2015 It’s been over a year since I have posted anything on this blog, but I have to say that my skin has improved a lot over the past year. My skin regimen still sucks but I guess that using the clarisonic and having some tea tree oil mixed in with my aloe vera lotion helps with my skin clearing up a lot. This is my skin right before I am supposedly starting my period which I usually break out a little before every month. I have learned a lot about my skin and it has changed a lot over the past year as well. I want to continue updating my skin on this blog and I’m glad that I have not deleted it. My skin has a lot of scarring now but I’ve been exfoliating whenever the clarisonic is in use so it reduces the darkness of the acne scars.

UPDATE 02/28/2014

Hey guys! Thank you for following me on this blog I really appreciate it and I'm sorry that I haven't been updating on it lately. I can't seem to upload pictures directly to tumblr on my phone anymore because it crashes every time I do so and I'm going to try to figure out a way to post picture soon! As for my acne... I haven't been getting crazy breakouts anymore and I think it's because I've changed my diet and excluded a lot of foods. The change in my body shows outside on my skin. And I figured what foods made me feel groggy and made my skin sensitive. I have excluded white carbs, dairy & cheese, red meats, and as much processed foods as possible from my diet. I've also stopped washing my face with harsh cleansers and I just exfoliate my face in the shower everyday and after cleanse it with the cetaphil gentle cleanser. TIP: I found this really useful but avoid using cleansers with any fragrance and alcohol in it. Best choice was the cetaphil cleanser and it helps retain your moisture and keep the pH balance of your skin rather than drying it out with the harsher chemicals. Regardless, I feel that the only way to really fight acne is living a healthy lifestyle and figuring out how your body works. What may work for me, might be different for you! I really wish that I could post pictures soon so everyone can see the progress of my skin! I'm really happy with myself as of right now and I will continue to update this blog! Have a great day everyone! xx -02/28/2014

Hi I'm thinking about going on birth control and I wanted to know which one did you use? Was it one of the 3 that is supposed to help acne or was it a normal BC? Thanks!

Hello (: And I was prescribed on ortho tri cyclen using the generic brand of Tri-Sprintec. It’s supposedly used for regulating and for the treatment of acne. However, it varies differently for everyone. My acne when I was on this pill was the worst it’s ever been. But it might be different for you! Everyone’s body works differently and there are other generic brands. I heard that the normal BCP might be better for treatment of acne because the dosage of hormones are the same day to day whereas the ortho tri cyclen birth control pills have a change of hormone dosage week to week. Your body might readjust better to the normal BCP because of the regular amount of hormones you’re taking everyday. I just know this from my research but make sure to ask your doctor about any doubts or concerns! Good luck!

have you tried the tea tree line from the body shop? it worked wonders for me and we have very similar skin issues.

Hello! And yes I have tried the tea tree line from The Body Shop! It’s great hearing that it had worked wonders for you! But unfortunately, it didn’t work so well with me! I felt that the cleanser and the toner was a little too strong for my skin oddly. I heard that it’s really good with helping acne and thought that it would be great for me but I guess not! Everyone is different! I also thought that the smell of tea tree oil is really strong. I can’t deal with strong smells so maybe tea tree oil and me don’t really go along well together. Thank you so much for your suggestion! (:

Hey guys sorry I haven’t posted like in a week but guess what? I think my acne is getting better ish. And I haven’t been diligent with my face washing routine. I use baking soda to wash my face in the night times now because too lazy to use an exfoliator an then a foaming cleanser. And I’m pretty sure that being off the birth control is helping a whole lot. My skin isn’t dry and flaky as it was before anymore and I’m becoming really oily again. Never thought I would be happy with oily skin but I am because when I experienced the dry skin, I noticed that wrinkles formed waaaay easier. I have a ton of scars and it’s so irritating because they get really red throughout the day and it’s horrendous. On the side note, I feel like I’m getting my muscular build back and I’m gaining weight really easily after being off of birth control. I don’t think I have that womanly body figure anymore. It’s only been a week or so!

But what do you guys think about my acne now?

Ya pretty acne mama is here yayayyaa. But lately I’ve noticed that my skin type changed from oily like I was an oily bastard, to the dry flaky type of skin. I guess the birth control changed up my whole hormonal balance and it’s probably still weird or I’m just going to stay like this but I’m not complaining, if rather MOISTURIZE and MIST my face instead of blotting like a nasty oily bastard every hour or so. I noticed that taking vitamin supplements helps a lot. And I stay away from minty feeling or smelling products and stopped applying those products. It sure helped the redness. But I’ve been breaking out with these fat cysts and eh what’s new.

Mad because side pics are out of focus and the first one is sorta out of it too, but I’m too lazy for a retake so yeah. I break out all the time in that unibrow area and I don’t know why so anyone have any suggestions?

Well I feel like complete shit today. I got my period finally after like a week of being off the birth control pill and I can just feel all the fat blasting everywhere in my body instead of going to its woman parts. My brother, that I swear I hate more than anything and anyone in this world, said that I look like a man and I’m getting this acne because it’s because it’s because I’m actually a “man”. Years and years of putting up with his bullshit is tiring already but this is just heartbreaking. My self confidence is way down there and I just want this skin problem to go away. But I’m trying to look towards the brighter side of this and know that one day I’ll overcome this acne.

MY SKIN IS HORRIBLE. STOPPING BIRTH CONTROL IS STILL CAUSING MY HAIR TO SHED AND THINNING OF HAIR IS JUST INSANE. UGH. -01/24/2014

#me #acne #face #acne problems #birth control effects #cystic acne #blackheads #whiteheads #redness #skin irritation #acne scarring #hyper pigmentation

I decided to go off of birth control because my skin is not getting better after three months. Birth control is definitely not an option for me again because I’ve also experienced drier eyes, lack of energy, and thinning of the hair. But my skin is still eh so cheers, straight out of the shower lol. -01/23/2014

I HAVE FOUND MY PHONE

I guess I'll be updating tonight (:

#me #skin is still horrible #thank buddha I found my phone

Reason for absence & will be on hiatus

Hello everyone!

Thank you to those who follow me on this blog and journey of mine but sadly, I will be on a break from this blog. I've recently lost my phone ( main source for my pictures ) and I guess I'm not feeling too great about myself or my life for that matter. I don't know when I'll be back and updating this blog but hopefully in the near future!

Hola y'all so this is my face and I haven't been consistent with my skin care routine so w/e but birth control is really getting to me and I'm in my third pack as of now. I noticed that I'm getting smaller pimples all over the face as to BIG CYSTS and whatnot but I have acne on my chest, back, and a ton on the back of my shoulders which really irks me. I'm gaining weight rapidly and I'm on the verge of quitting BCP all in all because the only pro is that my period is regulated but I'm sacrificing my skin and body entirely just so I don't end up being anemic/4 iron pills a day/constant bleeding. I really hope that it gets better by the time it's summer, I really do hope so because even though I'm fine going bare faced like this in public, it bothers me inside so deeply because I'm constantly mortified of how people are judging me because of my skin even though I'm pretty sure 99% people don't give a damn about my skin. I'm just tired of dealing with acne. 01/15/2014

Eh eh eh it's still pretty bad and my face itches all the time and I feel new pimples surfacing gahhhhh. My skin isn't oily anymore which is extremely odd because my skin is the complete opposite. It's dry and I don't gather anymore oils. Maybe it's the birth control I'm not sure but it's better than oily skin. My lower cheeks/jawline is my bigger problem as well as my temples. I just want my skin to get better by the time summer comes around!!! & thank you @fervorthemortalalone for messaging me about what products you use to help your skin! -01/09/2014
