Get a mild form of tretinoin and use that every other day and sun block when you're out.


Yeah I think that's the only potential 'cure'

Retin-a/tretinoin etc strip a layer of skin and the skin underneath eventually becomes stronger and smoother I believe. They found it as a side effect of acne cream. Not even sure those things are around these days In the strength you would need, I just remember looking into it when I was getting older and concerned about sun damage

I wouldn't mess with the stronger versions though just get a mild form as ALi said and hope for the best. Diet is definitely more important..and learning to love and accept yourself :dame:and all that

Oh and yeah sun cream if you use tretinoin is a must

... But then make sure you are taking on enough Vitamin D. Covid still about


Tbh breh just drink some water it's easier :mjgrin:

Really need to up the water.

Personally I use liquid black soap from a local spot, Hero Cosmetic toner (it's a Fenty fat water alternative), and recently tried out frontman SPF face lotion.

I use a facial cleaner every morning; a moisturizing clearner on day and an exfoliating/acne on the next. I sometimes apply niacinamide from "the ordinary" right after on spots I'm about to break out on. My girl bought that for me and I've been using it every since. Then I put on an jojoba oil mix that has cedar, peppermint and rosemary oil in it (youbcan make this yourself using Amazon products). Then I'm done. My face stays moisturized all day, it never gets oily and when I sweat a little, I smell amazing.

At night I wash my face in the shower with regular soap but I exfoliate with glycolic acid toner from "the ordinary"...you can just use withhazel but this acid shyt does a better job. Then I put on real aloe vera. I learned how to use it properly from a chick in Costa Rica a few years ago. I use it only to keep my skin from being try when I sleep. And I sleep with a towel wrapped pillow.

Doing all makes my skin glow like them Black Kemet gods the Egyptians used to go on about. And pimples last no more than a day if somehow get them. My face looks noticeable different when I do this....ppl start to think I look tired.

Wash ya face with this
Using a facial brush
Then use a wet face towel to wipe off
Then repeat

Use witch hazel on a cotton pad to wipe face after u washed

Wash your face at least twice a day
Before bed and when u wake up

Mix in tea tree oil
And some witch hazel in the clay

Mix some organic shea butter, tea tree oil, olive oil, organic honey, a few splashes of beer for the hops
Microwave it then let it cool

Put it in the fridge to harden
Then let it settle to room temperature

And moisturize your face with it

get facials.

this was corny but seriously I use clinique for men…have been for years…I use BOTH the oil free moisturizer and the moisturizing lotion…I use a dime size drop of both, rub them together then rub it on my face…for my face it has to be both…by themselves one leaves my face looking too dry and the other too greasy…but together they’re just right

I don’t really use anything on my face, except for cocoa butter. I tried Indian Healing clay/turmeric a couple of times. I don’t think it did much.

Since I’ve started drinking a lot of water I’ve haven’t had skin problems.

Does the cocoa butter and coconut oil clog your pores?
I don’t do neither but despite being used for skin care they clog up pores according to Google. I think coconut oil is better used for hydrating hair when mixed with water.

I’d just stick to a cleanser, weekly exfoliating and some moisturizer with spf or a nightly moisturizer. As of now I don’t use any moisturizer though.
