What can you do about bumps besides pick at them?

>>454757Pimples, I guess? I don't know. I never tried to figure out what they are before I start scratching or pinching them. Then I pick the scabs too! It's a sad cycle.
>>454768This is promising, thank you! I'm so glad you found something that works. I'm worried my skin is too sensitive (a doctor once told me I have excema literally all over my face kek) but I will look into this.

How do I get rid of sebaceous filaments??? I have so many of them and it bothers me so much, I pick at them but I know that's really bad for my skin.
My friend told me to get one of those little handheld machines but I'm scared that will damage my skin more somehow, or not work? They sound expensive but is there another way?

Volufiline nonna reporting back, I can't find my old post and I'm on mobile but around 3 months ago I started using it under my eyes and on my lips. I've gone through some 1/3rd of my 72 ml bottle, so this thing will last me ages. My hollow dark undereyes are still dark and sort of hollow but I've gained some slight eyebags? Lea Seydoux style, but obviously smaller. I like it and I think sleepy is a cuter look than day-old corpse. I haven't been consistent with using it on my lips but it definitely has a slight plumping effect.
>>454862I have very sensitive skin and I still went on Accutane, I know it's not exactly the same as tret, but it completely changed my skin. I was on the lowest possibile dose for a year and during the first three months I had pretty severe eczema, I eventually fixed it with snail mucin. I know a lot of people are allergic to it but it had a great calming effect for me.
>>454888I got cosrx AHA/BHA for the same problem because Accutane didn't fix it. They aren't gone completely but now at least they don't randomly get infected and turn into zits.

>>454926Lea Seydoux has such dreamy eyes I've always loved them, mine are the same shape but have lost alot of fat so I'm tempted to buy and try
I tried the cheap way before (hyaluronic acid sealed with vaseline) and it gave me a slight boost but the results isn't long lasting at all
This gave me so much hope because I hate my sunken eyes the update is appreciated!

>>455037I just apply it after having applied eye cream/ some lip balm. For a while, when I ran out of eye cream, I just used it on top of my moisturizer and it was completely fine.
>>455050I'd say go for it - a bottle costs quite a lot but I assume it lasts approx 5-10 months, depending on how much you use. It's just that the effects seem so random and you can never predict if it will even do anything. The effects are nothing nobody would outright notice, but for me they're just like a small net positive, like a little bonus.

No. 461677
>>461661It will go away completely if you're willing to cut out dairy. You can exfoliate all day but it won't make much of a difference. If you cut out dairy and
then exfoliate you'll have normal looking skin. Probably not what you want to hear but I've never heard of anyone successfully getting rid of kp through topical solutions alone (and dermatologists either don't know or won't admit how shitty bovine hormones are on some people's skin)

>>461747Not sure. I did find out by going vegan but have only really confirmed dairy being a problem for my skin, not any other animal products. For a while I thought these "dessert bars" were dairy-free (they are not) and a few bumps returned to the back of my arms after I got addicted to them (casein in dairy is addictive anyways but they're also really good). I used to think everyone should go vegan but have now witnessed living evidence that some people tolerate dairy pretty well and meat. If you have kp in the first place, you might be prone to
inflammation caused by dairy though, it's worth a try

To those watching $1000+ Sephora hauls and feeling FOMO: this is all you will ever need. This stuff works as: shampoo, body wash, conditioner, makeup remover and moisturiser. The Ordinary retinol is also optional.

You're welcome!

>>469950AYRT, I’ve been looking at her work and was originally very excited because she doesn’t appear to be affiliated with a brand and has a background in science. However, the style/tone of her blogs is so irksome. I dislike how informal and fallacious some statements are. For instance, the constant usage of “I think we all know…” or “
sus” to describe a study doesn’t come across as very professional. But I do like her guide on skincare and will definitely be using her as a resource.

>>472608i think depending on how bad it is regular acne products (benzoyl peroxyde) will work, personally i go from once every other day to twice a day when i know it's going to be that time of the month, and it usually keeps things under control ; maybe add topical antibiotics for the week before your periods
i don't really get people who say hormonal acne can't be helped by regular acne products, essentially it's the same bacteria that's causing the acne, it's just proliferating for different reasons

>>472608I found that using traditional treatments like benzoyl peroxide or even retin a on them didn't work, but this Japanese acne cream called Pair Cream worked super well. It's an anti-inflammatory cream that helps to lessen the pain and redness without drying. You do have to use it frequently but it really did help flatten the cystic/not come to a head acne.

>>480742What kind of scaring are we talking? Ice pick/ deep scars tend to respond well to chemical peels and microneedling, though if you’re still breaking out at all I’d avoid microneedling. If they’re flat/ white I’d get them lasered off, laser hurts like a bitch but they numb you right up.
For icepick scars you might look into something called TCA cross, where they apply the chemical peel solution to the scars alone, not your whole face. This would mean you’d have less downtime/ be less flaky if that’s what you’re worried about. I really do like a full face chemical peel, it does crazy things for your skin texture, just plan ahead before you get one done to make sure you’re staying out of the sun completely for the next week or so

>>480626Lotion, then tretinoin, then lotion, then slug on top. Make a schedule for yourself to taper on through (like 1x a week, then 2x a week) and really listen to your skin– if just applying your lotion is stinging, skip the tretinoin until it doesn't sting amymore and make sure to keep slugging on the bad days.
Personally though my skin never fully acclimated to tret… I ended up going on adapalene gel instead which agreed with my skin much more. Sometimes it just depends on your specific skin and how it interacts with the product, even if you do everything "right".

>>493460i feel for you nona, ive taken two incomplete treatments of accutane, it messed up my liver function and my period, far worse the second time. and even tho it fixed my skin for 6-7 months after i stopped it, it came back, tho not as severe. i dont know if its because I didn't finish my dose or if im just cursed to have acne forever. it fucking sucks and youre not alone. i feel like i wish i never tried it, it just gave me confidence that idk when or if ill ever get back.
right now im staying away from trying more rXtopicals since ive tried them all, so im on good skincare and acne vitamins, esp vitamin A which is whats in accutane, zinc and b12. idk if it will help
No. 494038
>>493830Good luck
nonny, I really hope both of us can find something that helps. Adapalene + metrogel is the only thing that gives me some semblance of help but I was really hoping that I'd be able to finish accutane and then just have a normal skincare routine with no prescription topicals, too. Being reliant on pharamceuticals like this feels like such a ball and chain, especially when I want to move abroad and know these drugs aren't available where I want to go.

Is there any way to reduce picrel? All of my pores on this part of my face are extremely dark and it really bothers me. None of them are blackheads, it’s just like my pores are overly sunken into my skin and cause shadows that make it look like I have a dirty face full of blackheads.
I’ve read that trying to mess with your pores makes them bigger so I don’t do anything to them, I just wash my face twice a day with gentle cleanser and apply facial lotion after, but they just get worse as I age. I feel like I look unclean and disgusting. I only ever see old men with this appearance.

Really stupid question but whatever: how long does it take you to fully use your products, whether it's toner, micellar water, creams, masks, etc. I always try to finish what I have before buying the same product from the same brand or another brand but it can take me a months or even more than a year and I always wonder if the products aren't expired by the time I have a little bit left. I've had this Byoma face cream for long enough for me to forget when I started using it, I guess for more or less a whole year and I'm still not done using it, but some youtuber who was tracking her progress in her project pan said it took her 6 months to finish using it. I have oily skin so maybe that's not her case and she needs to apply it more than me but it made me question everything. I also have a 400ml micellar water bottle and it's almost empty more or less a year after I bought it despite using it once everyday but I don't use makeup so I have no clue if that's normal.
