Most health food stores sell it.

Whoa. Please be careful about making sure that you have all the facts. The
soap that I make contains NO wax, EXCEPT for jojoba (technically a liquid
wax), which is okay for acne-prone skin. Handmade soap contains a lot of
glycerin naturally (a by-product of the saponification process) and I use
only good, healthy oils in my soap, such as coconut, hemp, olive, grapeseed,
and sweet almond, and I use a very low superfat percentage so that the soap
is not oily. I also use essential oils that are excellent for acne prone
skin, such as tea tree, lavender, naiouli, and rosemary. I can tell you that
my skin is IMMENSELY better since I started making, and using, my own soaps.

Hey Everybody,

i´m new at your very helpful group.
Please excuse my poor english, I´m german and i live in the us
since August 2001.
My acne breakouts are not very helpful to make new friends.
It is difficult to meet new people when you have major breakouts
at your skin. Maybe for many people my acne is not a problem, but
for me it´s a huge problem.

But now to my question. I have a severe acne an i don´t know if
vit. B5 can help to clear my skin. Does anybody have experience
if B5 can also help the scalp. Not only my skin is oily, also my
scalp is very oily and the ends are very dry. Does anyone know if i
can take b5 even i want to start a family?
(more…)

what should i do about blackheads ?????

I’ve been taking 8-10 gr. of B5 a day, 2gr. 5 times a day. My face is
getting much better to my deepest surprise. My skin is still getting
oily, but I can control it. I use alcohol 2-3 times a day to clean
the oil. I also expected side effects like diarea, but don’t have
any. In all cases though, the side effects of any antibiotics are
much more likely to happen than from B5, I assume.

i dont mean to critisize you but peppermint also irritates your skin causing
you to breakout more.I just wanted you to know:

Grata,

oooh… It’s been so long since I’ve posted any messages. It was my exam period
till yesterday so… I’ve been quite busy. I was thinking of having the laser
peeling once right after the exam period to make my scars look better, but
whew,,, I didn’t manage to have time. and I was wondering if the treatment had
noticable cure. Did anybody try lunch peel before? I tried it once about 3 weeks
ago, and My face turned all red. I’m not sure about the effects and the doctor
said it’s normal as You should take the treatment at least 4-5 times for actual
effect.Does anybody know any good ways to minimize acne scars? they’re killing
me!

Have a nice weekend~!
