PLEASE HELP

Saturday, October 9th, 2004

hi i have gone through lots of mails asking for help for acne and scars
i would like to say that using artifical products and chemically based medicines
can cause a hell lot of problems on ur skin
so its much better to stick towards herbal
for scars i have some really easy and almost free solution
u can use a tomato cut it into slices ,wash ur face with luke warm water without
using soap and then spread the slice on ur face lave them for 1 hr and then
remove them by rubbing against ur skin do a week and c the result
its better not to use soap for washing ur face coz soap can leave lots of
problems on ur skin
and for acne i have some tips like: take a lemon cut it,take out all the juice
from it ,wash ur face with water then dry it and apply the lemon juice on it
leave it until it dries then the rest of the lemon(the one from which u have
taken out the juice ) rub it gently all over ur face again and again and then
wash ur face with luke warm water dont dry it with towel or use soap

Has anyone had any luck with Differin?

What about nutritional supplements, holistic methods, acupuncture,
etc?

PLEASE HELP

Friday, October 8th, 2004

I heard of "PROACTIVE SOLUTION", but I don’t know if I should order
ir or not as I am hesitant of thinking about the possible side
effects it might have-it promises it doesn’t though…they keep
showcasing the advertisment’s on tv….
So if any of you out there have heard about proactive, or use it can
you PLEASE advise me to use it or not to use it, as I have no idea,
since I haven’t used it as of yet….or if you know of any other acne
remedies then tell me…

Please help me it will be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks….

Let me aplogize

Wednesday, October 6th, 2004

I do aplogize if I offended anyone. My only intention was to help and
if suggesting Mary Kay as a solution was against any group bylaws, I
am sorry.

Hello everyone.

Wednesday, October 6th, 2004

I am a new member and I would like to extend greetings to everyone.
I had acne it seems all my life.I am now in my 30’s and still
breakout once in a while. My question is what are the best remedies
for scars. I really can’t afford those peels being a single mother
it’s just not in my pocketbook.
Does anyone have any advice??
Thank you so much,
