Ok, I broke out the worst ever in life!!!!! I didn't have acne in my youth, my 1st breakout was after I turned 29. I have never had anything as bad as this, so I figure that I better document this tradegy.

Actually, this is partly my fault. Last year this time when I started using hair butters, I broke out. So, this year I should've been more careful BUT, I had surgery in Nov & of course, I was a little lazy,not really concerned with a routine. Well, it didn't take long to happen, but it's takes much longer to clear up.

I'm getting rid of most of the bumps, but the blemishes are what's killing me.

I don't go to the dermatologist until late Jan, so I'm using my left over Proactive & Acne Free & black soap and diluted ACV toner. When used properly, it does get rid of acne, but you really have to be vigilant like, I HAVE to change my pillow case every 3rd night. My skin doesn't tolerate anything touching it at this point. If I put my hands in face, a guaranteed zit is coming so no dirty/oily pillow cases for me.
I'm also trying to be mindful of my water intake. My goal is also to cut out red meat & dairy(we'll see).

Feb update:
Well, my skin is doing better. The blemishes are still here, but they are slowly clearing up. I really haven't had any breakouts & I think it's the ACV toner. I stopped the Proactive when I ran out about a month ago & have had no bad effects.
I clean with black, tone with ACV and moisturize with either Dr Moore's stuff or Avon(whichever is closest).
