Today, I found myself admiring my eyelids for being the only parts of my face not covered in acne. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I noticed that my acne has gotten so bad, I can see it out of my peripheral vision. FML
Today, I found out that the acne under my arms was worse then the severe acne on my face. FML
Getting on a bit
Today, I’m at that glorious age where I have to pull apart my wrinkles to get at the zits hiding inside. FML
Today, I'm now able to put my acne cream on my face without having to look in the mirror, because I've memorized the crater and trench-filled war zone that is my acne-riddled face. FML
Today, I realized that at 20 years old I already have noticeable wrinkles around my eyes. But to balance it out, my chronic acne keeps me looking youthful. FML
Today, I realized that I can't shave my unibrow because I have too much acne on my forehead. FML
Lumpy
Today, I woke up with a pimple on my eyelid. Not only is it impossible to cover up with makeup, I can't pop it either. Now I'll be spending the rest of the day trying not to blink. FML
Today, I realized my acne looks like star constellations. I've already found the Little Dipper on my left cheek. FML
Stolen valor
Today, I was complimented on my freckles. I don't actually have freckles, just a load of blackheads that won't go away. FML
Today, I finally saw a dermatologist due to my unusually severe acne. Now I know I actually have a rare disorder that makes me allergic to my own acne. FML

Been there. Acne is one of the few drawbacks to being young.

#2 Cure? Are you severely incapable of common sense?

I've been there. Hang in there because it will eventually heal. But I know that it really sucks :/ it was a huge self-confidence issue for me. I never felt pretty and people would always talk about ONE zit they had on their face. And I'd be sitting there covered in pimples. It was just embarrassing in a way. But it will get better, I promise. Besides, acne shouldn't define who you are. Stay strong :)

Go to your doctor and ask for Cleocin-T topical stuff. It's old school acne med but it works VERY well!

I thank the skin gods everyday because I never had so much as a pimple. my boyfriend's S-I-L has acne craters all over her face... :/

try using aloe leaf store it in the fridge every night pass the slimy part over your face and let it air dry... if this does not work try honey and ground cinnamon make a paste and dab it directly onto the pimple.

Im going through the same thing, and since ive been pregnant it spread to my body. Just waiting until I can start using accutane but its gonna be awhile. People don't get it unless theyve been there, it really has nothing to do with how much you wash its a disease caused by overproduction of sebum.
