neosporin for acne?

Thursday, March 27th, 2003

everyone knows neosporin is for cuts and
scrapes.<br>but what about acne. i decided to try
neosporin<br>after i popped a zit. it worked wonders to repair the
skin and get the redness out. i believe neosporin
should be used after a zit is popped because 1.it kills
germs etc. 2. it contains a wax<br>and petroleum to
moisturize the wound. a wound that has moister, heals
faster. try this next time you pop. put a bunch of
neosporin white cream on the zit morning and night. it will
absorb into the skin trust me.

10% Benzoil Peroxide

the BP 10% i get at the store does work for
me!<br>it’s a lot cheaper than the stuff you’ll get at the
doctors office. BP has worked for me for a long time. you
don’t even need to get the name bands (i.e clearisil,
oxy cream) there are plenty <br>of generic brands out
there. i saw some BP at k mart yesterday that was only
$3.oo a bottle, a very good price. it is basically the
same indredents as the name brands. BP is FDA approved
to fight/ clear up acne. it’s proven. BP gets
into<br>the skin and kills the bacteria that causes
acne.<br>i reccommend it, but like i said , start with 1x at
night then go to 2x, then 3x if your skin doesn’t have
a bad reaction<br>bryan

10% Benzoil Peroxide

Thank you so much– my doctor basically said here
is Triaz, if you need this, use it, and I thought it
was going to be similar to Differin, just put it on
your breakouts at night. That’s pretty much what the
nurse said to do, so when I first put it on and started
to itch, I washed my face. That didn’t help,
probably because like you said, it vanishes into the skin.
My entire face was red and inflamed so I called the
office and asked what to do…. they said to not use
anything for a few days and wait… then start up again,
but to use the BP sparingly. Thank you so much for
your advice, it helped a lot. Does this stuff really
work for you? Right now I cannot see myself putting it
on my face again. <br><br> Take Care,<br> Karyn

Wednesday, March 26th, 2003

guess i just need alittle patience!<br><br>bryan

10% Benzoil Peroxide

Karyn the benzoil peroxide i use is a vanishing
formula…meaning it disapears into the skin. you shouldn’t have to
wash it off. i rub it into the skin, and it gets into
the pores. if you just leave it on the skin it can
burn the skin (depending on how much you use). if i
use too much BP, (more than 3x a day) i will get the
peeling, red skin and dryness you speak of.) i would use
less if i were you.<br>you can use it 1-3x a day.
start with 1x a day then move on from there…this has
worked for me<br>bryan

10% Benzoil Peroxide

Is this the stuff that is in all of the OTC
products? I need some advice, I don’t know what happened
with the Triaz. It’s one of many products that has 10%
BP. So, I used it, and I got a little dry. I skipped
a day. I used it last night, and when I woke up, I
washed it off. My face is red, dry, and peeling, and my
face itches and burns at the same time. Is this from
using too much or is my skin too sensitive for this?
Maybe I am allergic too. What is your
experience?<br><br> Thanks so much, Karyn <br><br>PS I hope everyone
and their most recent remedies/prescriptions are
working out for them!!

Heard of OXY?

Oxy is not the best product, I find Clean and Clear (the ddep cleansing dark
blue one) to be the most effective.

Heard of OXY?

OXY? The stuff that you buy over the counter?
They have cream and face cleanser and the
cleansing/medicated pads? Well, if that is what you are referring
to…I have heard of it. I have used it. It did the same
thing to my face that all of the other medicated
products over the counter did. Dried me up like a wrinkly
prune. My face was dry and tight and then it produced
more oil. So, I had this really sleek face with this
tight feeling and a very shiny face because of all of
the oil that was being secreted. If your skin is very
sensitive I don’t suggest that you use it. You may want to
do a skin test first.<br><br>Delores

I can see a very big improvement in my skin. I
have been drinking large amounts of water. And I do
believe that it is helping my skin. Not only with the
acne but with the dryness. My skin is not as dry as it
was before. Well, the trials still go on. I will let
you all know how things are going.<br><br>Delores
