Oily Skin With Acne


(Miami, FL )

I have suffered from acne for about 10 years now. I am a 26 year old female with extremely oily skin. I live in sunny and humid South Florida. The weather seems to help aid in my skin producing and retaining all its oil. My trips to the dermatologist would include a quick look at my face, a prescription for some topical ointment, and then an injection with some sort of steroid for any large bumps. I recently visited a new dermatologist and they advised the only way I could get rid of my acne was to go on acutane. I refuse to believe that. My research has lead me to your page. Do you have any advice as to what I should use on my face for acne? Right now I wash with Boscia, an all natural cleanser with no preservatives and moisturize with La Roche Posay Hydraphase Facial Moisturizer, but that doesn’t keep new pimple(s) from appearing EVERY morning. I should also mention the pimples usually form on my cheeks and chin. They’re a mixture of blackheads, nodules, and lesions (in order of occurrence). I’m tired of trying prescription creams, and don’t want to be on antibiotics or birth control my entire life to clear my skin. Help please.
Thanks….

Hello,

So many people, like yourself, are just fed up with prescription steroid creams and injections that never resolve the acne problem. I am very relieved that you decided NOT to go on Accutane!! For our website viewers I will say that Accutane causes serious permanent side effects!! These include: causes growth plates to fuse (that's right, it stops bone growth in prepubescent and adolescents!), causes permanent vision problems, causes hair to fall out causing baldness long after you've stopped taking it, can cause serious cases of arthritis long after you stop using Accutane, causes permanent liver damage and Accutane can cause serious birth defects long after you've stopped taking it. All of these side effects are admitted by the manufacture. They know Accutane is dangerous!!! The best way to handle acne is by natural, health building means!

My simple, two step program is 1) cleanse and 2) moisturize. Even with oily skin, the twofold basic need of any skin type is to unpack old, caked in cells and to draw in enough moisture for healthy skin layers.

First, cleanse: this is very important so that excess oil, trapped dead cells and debris can be removed. I recommend using our FACE & BODY WASH which is plant based and will cleanse the skin 7 layers deep to unpack sticky, damaged cells while supplying vital nutrients.

Second, moisturize: you must couple your acne care with a hypo-allergenic cream that will further unpack accumulated cells and oil and restore and repair your 7 layers of skin. I recommend our FACE & NECK THERACREAM which has anti-bacterial qualities to inhibit germ growth and damage.

As I am a firm believer is holistic care, you may want to consider cleansing your bowels of accumulated waste and toxins with our INTESTINAL BOWEL CLEANSER. This will help your entire body as well as strengthen your immune system.

Please keep me posted on your progress and I'm here if you should have any further questions.

Warm Regards,
Nanette
