Getting rid of dark spots caused by acne

[shaikhaf]

Alpha Hydrox's oil free formula has worked WONDERS for me! keeps the skin really smooth and even-toned too!

oh and another one is apple cider vinegar!

Glycolic products have worked wonders for my skin. It's cleared my acne, evened out my skin and helped with acne scars / spots.

I currently use the Glycolic products by Serious Skin Care (found on HSN) The Glycolic cleanser and the Glycolic Gel are my must haves, I could never go without them.

I heard about using lemmon juice but if you have sensitive skin you may not wnat to try it.

I used that before, it didn't work either. I have brown spots from the sun, from aging and from acne. I used Bliss Sleeping Peel and that didn't work either. I've tried Neutrogena's peel and L'Oreal's peel. The only thing I liked about Bliss' Sleeping Peel was it did seem to minimize my undereye wrinkles.

I've had a few spots on my chin from "zits-gone-bad" that have absolutely refused to heal completely for the last several months. It's been a constant source of frustration for me since the rest of my complexion (mercifully) is clear and much younger looking than my 46 years. I saw my doctor a couple of weeks ago, who told me to stop using the dermatological cream that was merely irritating it further and to keep the little rough red spots constantly moisturized with Aquafor. That seemed to help a little but much too slowly. I bought some Bio-Oil and have been exfoliating every morning and using it and then putting the Bio-Oil on the gauze part of those little spot/blood test bandages and covering the spots overnight while I sleep. I've seen more improvement in the last few days than I had in months! At this rate the spots should be gone completely in a couple of weeks or so! Hurray!!

Take 2 tablespoon gram flour, 1 tablespoon honey and a little mustard powder. Mix them all to make a paste and apply this paste every night on you face before going to bed. Wash after 10-15 minutes. Oily skin, acne spots and other skin problems will soon be gone!
