Don’t tell me to get any over the counter crap, cocoa butter, or even vitamin e because I know for a fact that it doesn’t work at all. I’ve bought numerous amounts of that stuff and it doesn’t even give the slightest improvement (at least not on my skin). It’s a gimmick to get your money.

What can I do?

What moisturizer/lotion should I use? http://acnecureanswers.com/my-acne-medicine-dries-my-skin-out-what-moisturizerlotion-should-i-use.html http://acnecureanswers.com/my-acne-medicine-dries-my-skin-out-what-moisturizerlotion-should-i-use.html#comments Sat, 18 Dec 2010 00:39:43 +0000 paul http://acnecureanswers.com/my-acne-medicine-dries-my-skin-out-what-moisturizerlotion-should-i-use.html Question: What lotion should I invest in that is non-comedogenic, doesn’t have a strong smell (I’m a guy), won’t make my face greasy looking, and will heal/cover up dry skin effectively?

Backstory: For probably a decade now, I have gone through many different medicines in search of clearing up my facial acne. Fortunately a few years back, my doc finally gave me a prescription that works and my skin has been relatively acne free. The problem however is that my face will frequently peel due to drying out from having the meds on overnight. I also use a Cetaphil daily cleaner which also adds to the dryness. The only way I have learned to keep this all manageable is to use a good lotion/moisturizer. I have gone through a ton, most recently I’ve had spells with…. Aveeno (too cloggy for my taste), Suave’s Skin Therapy w/ Cocoa Butter (decent, but would wear off too easily and dry skin would start to show), Cetaphil’s facial lotion (really screwed my skin up by making my face scaly and break out), Coco butter (didn’t mask the dryness) and Lubriderm original (didn’t like the smell that good and made my skin look too greasy)

Thanks

I don’t pick at the scars, and I’ve tried vitamin E, cocoa butter, "scar zone", none of them worked. Any suggestions? Please don’t tell me to get rid of the acne. I don’t have a problem with acne anymore, just the scars.

i've never had acne problem when i was in school. i'm 20 and it seems like my hormones' still screwed up. i've got irregular menstrual problem ever since i first bled. some said it could be due to the hormones but i'm not plannin to take the pills cuz im tryin to stay off drugs if possible. sigh. such a stubborn ass i am.

About 3 months ago, I started having really bad breakouts on my forehead and it left a few scars. Normally, I would just apply cocoa butter to the scars and they would eventually go away but I have had these scars for two months and I have seen little to no improvement. Does anyone know of a good acne treatment for African Americans? Preferably something that shows quick signs of improvement.

I look like I have freckles on both sides of my cheeks. My skin is rather weird, I don't mess with the bumps, I wash my face and let them go away on their own but there are still scars left in return. Do anyone know what can get rid of these acne scars? I've tried Bio-oil and that doesn't work and plus its worse than using cocoa butter.
