Need skincare advice...

This is more than a little embarrassing, but the more stressed I get, the more I seem to break out under my chin. I've tried several different cleansers and they make my skin super dry to where it becomes itchy, so then I bought a neutrogena light moisturizer with grapefruit extract to moisturize...
This is more than a little embarrassing, but the more stressed I get, the more I seem to break out under my chin. I've tried several different cleansers and they make my skin super dry to where it becomes itchy, so then I bought a neutrogena light moisturizer with grapefruit extract to moisturize while still fighting breakouts, but this is actually the best it's looked in months. With 8 1/2 months til the wedding, I expect stress to increase and this to be a real uphill battle. If any of you have dealt with something similar, can you share what worked for you? TIA!

    That's awesome! I've started a curology plan, and in 5 days I've had 75% skin clearance. Now what I see most is the scaring from the years of messing with my face. I think, around November, I'm going to add maderma or something similar to my routine to see if I can get the scaring to diminish at least some.


    Thank you so much for sharing. If this ends up not working for the long term, you may end up with a PM from me 😉

    Before you try anything more, you need to fral with the open sores and active infection in the top layers of skin. Whatever you use after, you are smearing the inffectious material and irritating pores with cleaners, or acids, that are practically an open door to bacteria to come in every opened pore. If you have no known problem with it, try Triple Antibiotic topical ( rub on) ointment. At least 3x a day, let it sit at least an hour. if you are putting on nice clothes, ointment leaves greasy spots. So gently wipe it off then water wash. When there is no redness or irritation for 3 days, then you are ready to start something new.

    I recommend going to a dermatologist in your area. Skincare is tricky, so it's good to have a professional opinion.
