I was 24 years when my face broke out really bad and the dermatologist gave me Zorac to apply on my skin as well as some oral antibiotics. It took at least 3 months to clear up and now almost 2 years later I have a few scars that might never go away but I have just recently started breaking out a little. I'm using a product that has vitamin A in it and it's called Dr. Aspect-Exfol A plus alpha serum. It helps but then makes me break out again. Could it be the vitamin A that's doing that? I really don't want to break out again.

Hi Nanette,
I had tiny pimples on my forehead and corner of my lips. I used Retino 0.05%. Then I started having red rashes with a stinging sensation and it looks really ugly. I went to my dermatologist and she prescribed 0.5% hydrocortisone cream to apply twice a day for just 7 days but it seems like it had loads of side effects. Should I continue to use it or what should I do?

Hello, I came to your site because my face always flushed easily and was persistently red, rough and dull. The texture was like light sand paper. I think I had rosacea accompanied by a few pimples. The texture and dryness of my skin was driving me crazy! Your Face & Body Wash and Face & Neck TheraCream had corrected my problem and now my skin is so soft and smooth and I can't say enough about it! Thank you so much.

Hello,
I ordered a tub of your Face & Neck Theracream after having a terrible case of contact dermatitis on my cheeks, I think from a makeup concealer. I have sensitive skin and am prone to some acne as well. When I do get acne breakouts (jaw & cheeks) they get very inflamed and leave marks that last, the marks are much worse than the breakout itself. The rash was so bumpy and red, almost like little patches of tiny blisters. I got my order and started using it yesterday (the rash occurred 6 days ago), and within a few hours it looked more smooth and less red, yay! So far, the only thing that has made a noticeable improvement in the healing has been the theracream. I also used it for my kids and their very dry hands, overnight it made a huge difference.
Thank you for your help. If this continues to work well, I will reorder and use the face cream as an ongoing moisturizer. Best Always!

Hi,
My daughter is 16 and I have been taking her to a dermatologist for 2 yrs now and I am concerned that nothing seems to help her acne. She mainly gets large painful pustules right below her buttocks and between her legs on her upper thighs. She has been on 2 types of antibiotics and different creams for 2 yrs. Now they have decreased some but she still gets them and I worry about infections and the scarring that is now developed in those areas. She has very dry skin, she uses Cetaphil soap.
Any suggestions.
Thanks.

I have blackheads and can't seem to get rid of them. It's only on my forehead and that's the only place I have acne and blackheads. What do I do?

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….

Allergic Reaction To Facial Wash(Clean & Clear Advantage 3-in-1 Foaming Acne Wash)
I started using this facial wash called Clean and Clear Advantage 3-in-1 Foaming Acne Wash. And I only used it for 2 days and I got an allergic reaction to it all over my chin and on the top of my lip. But you can see it more on my chin then my lip. So I wanted to know what is the best way to get rid of it in 1-3 days? And I wanted to know would Hydrocortisone 1% Cream help it any to go away.

Hello,
I am a 15 year old boy who is struggling with this problem. I feel like I cannot go anywhere with the looks of my face. It is all over my nose, my cheeks, my eyelids and above my lip. I have been using Lamisil cream for about a year now, but it seems to not solve the problem. At times it does not flare up for awhile, or when it does, it goes away in a couple days. But it's been 2 or 3 weeks and it has been bad every single day. I'm not sure what else to use or do, but your creams seem to be the answer. I would like to know if you have these products in Canada, or if we can order them here. After applying the Lamisil, it leaves my skin oily, which causes it to get worse.
Thanks

Hi Nanette how are you?
My skin is really rough and dry and my make up just sits on the dry areas and looks awful. I use a mineral make up and end up having to put more and more on to cover up the dryness. Will your Face & Body Wash and your Face & Neck TheraCream normalize this condition as well as heal the steroid cream damage I now have?
Also, presently I'm using commercial cleansers that don't remove my makeup and the soap I am using still dries out my skin. Can your face wash remove my makeup and also moisturize my skin? Finally, I suffer from a lot of acne could you please tell me what I can take internally to clear my whole entire system.
Kindly, Samerah

I have been using Elocon steroid ointment on my face for 4 to 5 years. I did not know that it was a steroid and hence kept using it(it's also prescribed by doctor for some normal infection problem and I got some relief from the problem also). As soon as I discovered that it was a steroid I stopped using it for 2 weeks. Since then my skin has just flared up badly and is rough and red and has several pimples and pustules. So again started using Elocon ointment to keep my skin calm. Now I can't seem to avoid using Elocon ointment. My skin is addicted with steroid!
Please give me some good suggestions to get normal skin and a normal immune system.

Hi,
I suspected that I have used hydrocortisone cream on my face for oiliness and acne. Now I have developed very dry and sensitive skin. I am seeing a doctor now but seems like the progress is slow. Is there a possibility for my skin to return to normal?

Hi Nanette,
I had been using all sorts of face products on and off over the past 10 years. I am 27 years old and got a lot of break outs on my chin. I now have scarring from these breakouts. My skin was dry around my cheeks and forehead. I also had rosacea and my face often felt hot and looked red. I had been using a liquid foundation to cover up the redness as well as the acne and this had only worsened my skin over time. Three weeks ago I started using your Face & Body Wash followed by an application of your Face & Neck TheraCream and my skin started clearing up within 3 to 5 days! Now I am writing you to send my many thanks for such fast working products that have literally changed my life.
Warm Regards,
Marissa, Australia
