Hello,<br><br>I tried Proactiv too, for about
three months, but it did NOTHING for my face, which
really bothers me since I live in Canada and had to pay
more to get it, and it was too late to send it back…
ARGH! <br><br>I hope it works for you again… I was so
sure it would work for me, but big surprise, it
didn’t! I’m a little bitter, that’s all
Hi,<br><br>I have tons of acne too, and i’ve had
it since I was in grade six (now I’m in my second
year or University) I know it freagin sucks, I hate it
so much, and people get so annoyed when I complain
about it, but I can’t help it, it pisses me off so much
so that I often skip lectures b/c my face looks so
retarded…<br><br>I know how you feel, buddy
Avoiding the sun at all costs is *not* what I
meant. Your body does need the sun to help process
certain vitamins in your body, and a little sun won’t
harm you. However, sitting in the sun to tan or "help"
acne for prolonged periods of time unprotected
(without sunscreen) is definately not a good thing. So use
some sunscreen!<br><br> Happy Holidays, <br> Karyn
Some people swear by water. I don’t think the
requisite 8 glasses would drastically improve your skin,
but it would never hurt to drink the water. It’s
great for your whole body.<br><br> Karyn
I got tons of acne, big ears, and a scar from the chicken pox on my face
good question?? one i am still wondering about:)<br>i drink tons of water and
have for years but not sure that it has helped by skin 
i still have
problems…
I am not a water drinker…i can go wks without
drinking water, but there are days where i would pretty
much only drink water…my question is how much does
water help skin/acne?…does it make your skin look
that much better?
I cant imagine some exposure to the sun being that harmful… I dont get any
exposure….
Kids, <br><br> The sun is actually doing you more
harm than good. Yes, acne does INITIALLY get "better"
in the sun. However, it is not a cure, and will not
cure your acne. Furthermore, it’s causing premature
aging and wrinkling, and higher risk of skin cancer,
which, take it from me, is not a cool thing. I’m 18 and
had a pre-cancerous mole removed 2 years ago. Going
to the sun for a cure is not the thing to do. Find a
script or OTC that works and then put on the
sunscreen!<br><br> Take Care, <br> Karyn
Hmm Interesting — You know I dont get out much these days.. I dont have the
exposure of the sun.. maybe would help some..
