Uneven skin

[Anastasia91390]

I've never had much luck with skin and it seems like no matter how clear my skin is it's never even looking.

I've tried tons of acne products over the years. Clean and clear, Neutrogena, went to a doctor who prescribed me Benza Clin, and I'm using Pro Activ now. They've all worked for a little while in clearing up my skin, but even when I don't have pimples I still have to wear foundation for my skin to look decent. It's not acne scars I don't think.

Even when I have alot of Dream matte mousse and concealer on it still looks gross. It's like red in some places, my freckles stand out alot in others.. I'm not really sure how to explain it, but I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem or has any ways of helping this. I'll love you forever.

Seriously. Lol

I suggest go to the dermatoligst and see what he/she thinks if not try some peels or microdermabrasion and when u cleanse and exfoliate make sure the cleanser contains glycolic because it would help even ur skin tone put sunscreen always so the problem doesnt become worse and i hope more people would helpoh yeaaah andd dream matte foundtion isnt really a good foundation i remember when i first bought it. It looked good and evened my skintone everything butt then couple of days later it started to hightlight my pimples and scars more like i would look better without it andd would give me dry patches and red patches to change to a mineral foundation test it on ur skin before u buy it

Thanks for your help. :] Aren't microdermabrasions(sp?) expensive?

 

[Mouna]

yeah they are but if u get a home mircodermbrasion and do it your self it would work out better for you try mary kay or epidermx these are the ones i like

 

[Anastasia91390]

haha I'll try. Sounds kind of scary though. Hopefully I do it right.

 

[Mouna]

follow the instructions and u wont go wrong and u cant give up you wont see result over night and try using in the morning a moisture with suncreen that evens skintone like brightening moisture eg aveeno brightenin moisture spf 15 or 30 not sure

 

[Anastasia91390]

Alright. How long was it before you started to see results?

If you are going to do microdermabraison or a peel go to the dermatolgist to be safe. They can perscribe you a cream, cleanser, and a tonner.

well i seen result in the smoothnesss striaght away but it my tone and some acne and acne scars like after a month but hey at night i use retin a gel from the dr if you are not sure about it and dont feel 100% go to the dermatoligist even if the visit is abit expensive its ok because better then wrecking ur skin or using alot of product and not going to work for you i think u should see the derm he/she will tell u whats best for you better then just wasting ur money on anything do u get what i mean hun?

 

[Anastasia91390]

yes I do. Your skin looks flawless so it must be working well for you. Egg whites are good for making your skin feel smooth too. If you wash it off after like 10 minutes when it's dry.

You really can't mess up MK microdermabrasion. I've actually switched to MAC Microfine Refinisher since it has the same texture IMHO.

 

[laura112]

I agree with mouna I don't think the foundation you're using is very good. I think you get waht you pay for with a lot of brands.

Hopefully I do it right. i was scared too, at first, but now i use a microdermabrasion scrub once a week and i love the improvement it's made in my skin. i would agree that maybe a trip to the dermatologist might be your first step. i also like philosophy microdelivery mini peel pads w/lactic acid. they did wonders to help even my skin tone.
