How do you feel when you see someone with acne? Guys? Girls?

I’m a 20 year old woman and I’ve had acne since I was in 5th grade. It just won’t go away and I’ve tried everything (including pro-active). I’ve been okay the past few years in accepting it and I was becoming more confident, but the past few weeks it has really been bothering me again. I feel like no one can see past it and that that is all they see when they look at me. It also bothers me that I couldn’t be more beautiful for my boyfriend. I just want to know how you all think when you see someone with acne or how you feel yourself if you have it.

if you see someone who looks friendly, and they notice your acne and try to avoid you, they aren’t a nice person!
i dont really care. i kind of feel sorry for them though.
I don’t really care, it can change the way you look, but what’s inside is more important. =)
Well then its not your fault. If people can’t look past that then they are just ignorant.
Have you tried the dermatoligist??
Well atleast you have a boyfriend who loves you. And as long as you love your self then that is all that matters.
It doesn’t bother me one bit who am i to judge
Girl, I had the same problem!! The only thing that worked 4 me was ACCUTANE prescription from the dermotologist. People still always thought I was cute w/ or without acne. Boys always thought I was cute too. I have a cute shape, pretty straight white teeth, cute facial features and hair thats thick, coal-black, doll hair. So people still can be very pretty in spite of acne. Thank God its gone now though!
I am in the same boat as you. I have accepted it and just hope that one day I’ll find something that works. I recently started questioning what people see when they look at me. I was cutting some elastic for an elderly woman a couple weeks ago (I work at a fabric store) and she was giving me advice on how the clear up my skin (by slathering it in cocoa butter). I just got really pissed off and wanted to punch her in the neck.
I, too, want to look better for my fiance or just enough so that I look beautiful for our wedding day.
By the way, I am also 20 and have had it since about 5th grade. Let me know if you find anything that works.
It’s nice to know there is someone my age who is having the same troubles.
no offense or anything to u..i mean it in a nice way
whenever i see a person with acne, that is my first thought but i feel bad for thinking it, i try not to think that
but i am never rude to anyone becaz of that
personally i want to try to help them .. i mean its there face and they can say no but home remedies rock.. but other then that .. its acne .. we all get it .. just some more then others
try plain yogurt .. just gob it on your face and let it set awhile .. its out with bad bacteria and in with good.. just a thought
OK do one thing smile..look yourself in the mirror and be proud of who you are don’t worry about what others think. if they are going to be shallow let them and just think how more mature you are. Ive had acne every1 has its just something every1 goes through. some have it worse then others but i think by you worrying about it .it makes it worse like when I’m stressed i break out . you can go to a dermatologist if it really bothers you but being more pretty for your bf isn’t something that you should worry about. when your older looks fade whats left is the heart and that’s something that cant get ugly if your a good person. it does bug me if i have acne but i try to look past it . i hate seeing girls with perfect skin lol
if you can pull it off and look confident then its fine
go to a dermatologist… it may take a while to get the medicine to clear your skin but its worth it
if you have a boyfriend then who cares what others think
or wear a spray aerosol foundation applied wtih a makeup sponge and it wont be seen…
or get a airbrusher and airbrush foundatino every morning
I think you should change your diet for a while, try vegetarian diet, I have seen it clear up faces quite well, even if it doesnt clear up your face you would be much healthier.
If you are already veg – go vegan
if you are already vegan go raw
if you are already raw, then drink more water
