i've been told by my dermatologist that tanning doesn't help get rid of spots and pimples in the long run, you'll still have the problem, it's like a short term fix, and it is of course bad for you skin.

and all the talk in this thread has made me take a good look at my skin, i think the scary ass roaccutane did work, and i just had a bit of an attack the first couple of weeks after taking it where i got a few otbreaks, cos my skin is a lot clearer than it's been in a while, and i have no spots on my back anymore, except for a few pink/red marks of old spots...

I used to have a lot of acne when I was in high school. So one day my mom takes me to this doctor who prescibres me some cream. After applying it an night and in the morning I get to school and everyone asks me what the hell is wrong with my face. Turns out for the first few weeks the cream causes redness and swelling in the applied areas. Gee thanks doc for forewarning me. Anyway thank you for letting me relive this embarassing moment. Good night.

your pores open when exposed to heat, and you start sweating, your sweat comes through the pores of your body...I like to boil a pot of water and then put my face over it with a towel over my head to make a little tee pee sort of thing and it opens my pores, then I go wash my face. It works pretty good.

use st. ives apriocot scrub. If you have massive ones that are juicy and you want to clear them up for your homecomming, put a little bit of toothpaste on them before you go to bed. The stuff in the toothpaste drys them out. This sounds crazy but i do it all the time and i saw it on tv, (not like that makes it any more valid).

yea.. toothpaste works...i used to use it too.i live in a hot and humid country and the weather used to play hell on my face but now all i do is wash my face with water as often as possible. oh yea..as soon as possible if you've been walking around in high traffic density areas.
