Show some skin :)

I recently have broken out a lot...and I finally found the source thank heavens! I had been breaking out all along my chin and it's because I have been sleeping cupping my husbands head underneath mine while he lays on my chest. Yes it is comfortable, but my chin is smashed into his hair all night. So that got me on a rampage to find something to clear me up before I figured out this was the cause. I figured that something had changed or I had gotten used to the stuff I was using and it didn't work anymore. Here is what I have come across. I usually use Cetaphil



and it has worked great for me. It is pretty mild and just does the job since I don't really get break outs. More like a pimple or 2 every once in a while. But in my recent search for something to help I considered Proactiv and decided against it. I read on Acne.org that people had horrible reviews of it! people hated to more than loved and it was not worth the money. Then I stumbled upon this...

This is Calamine Lotion. I read the reviews on it and people were raving about it and its ability to dry up pimples fast even though that was not its intended purpose. So I went and bought some, this one to be exact and mine is clear. (some turn your skin white or pink) but I have been using it every night before bed with a clean face and it really has been helping. The ones that were bad are fading away and I have not had any new ones show up! Im way excited about it! And It was only like 3 bucks. Worth the try for sure!

Now on to moisturizer, I have a skin disease. Im just gonna put that out there. I have had it since I can remember. I think it started when I was a kid, me and my parents all got a nasty skin virus from dirty hot tub water and since then I have had this. Its called Folliculitis combined with Keratosis Pilaris. Basically my skin produces extra keratin from hair and nails and it gets trapped in my hair follical and since my skin is dry it has no way to get out. It gets pretty much on my arms only and ocassionaly the back of my legs, weird! It makes me pretty sad sometimes because I have a lot of scars, and have been to many doctors, and have been on lots of antibiotics to fix it and never have. But I was introduced to something so amazing that I have to share it. It is called Jojoba Oil. It is not the ONLY moisturizer that I will use now. It has helped with my arms so much and I have yet to see a single bump on my arm since using it (since Feb) I use it on my face and my body and if it helped me, it WILL help you. Check it out!
