Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi guys, I (f25) recently started taking better care of my skin, which has always been acne prone since I was a teenager, and has only been getting worse since then. My current routine:AM: wash with water, then apply The Body Shop Vitamin E moisture-protect SPF 30 sunscreen or Nivea Soft moisturising cream. PM: wash face in shower with Boots Skin Clear face wash, wipe with stridex pad, wait 20-30 minutes then apply Nivea Soft moisturising cream.I've been doing this routine for a little over two months now. I did introduce the products more or less gradually. After starting using the stridex pads I feel like my skin has improved, my spots are less angry and red, and the amount of whiteheads and closed comedones has decreased. However, not everything is improving, so onto my questions!Cysts: I have always gotten big, cystic spots, but usually only one or two at a time. This summer I started getting more, and after starting stridex I feel like they aren't going away. Currently I have two red, angry active ones on my chin, and four in other locations on my face that have calmed down, but are now just hard lumps under my skin that aren't going anywhere. I did change my birth control in January/February (from nexplanon to cerazette), could that be causing a flare-up in cystic acne now? My chin is the worst area, but I'm not getting any around my jawline. I'm also wondering why they now just seem to lie latent under my skin instead of going away after a few weeks like they used to. Anyone have any ideas as to how to get rid of them?PIH: I never really had a problem with PIH before, but now I'm getting dark marks after almost all my spots, especially on my chin. Am I not using enough sunscreen? Anything else that could be causing this?Sorry for the rambling wall of text, thanks for reading all of it!
