i have cystic acne and i’ve started this new thing called nutrition response testing, just curious as to how many people have had good results with clearing their cystic acne.

I recently caught the end of an over the counter acne treatment commercial claiming to work better than Proactiv Solution. I have used the latter for years and love it, but wouldn’t mind saving some money!!! The problem is, I can’t remember what the new brand is. . . .
Thanks for your input!

I’m 22 and I have acne like i did when i was 16. If I’m a really nice guy who wanted to date you would you be turned off?

i saw some pics of alicia keys today.
so many people can be so cruel.
i mean the chick has acne.
we all go through it. it isn’t her fault.
some worse than others.
i myself have the same skin issues as her.
i too have acne and i’m a light black skinned woman.
but when i saw the comments. i thought just how mean our society is.
we cake on the makeup to be approved of, with the skin conditions we have, from all the stress in the world,
and then when we wear the makeup they say we look like clowns. what a messed up society we are in. you can’t please people.
posted are the links.
