Hey guys, I suffer from mild acne and I am worried about my wedding day. Do you think a professional will be able to cover up my acne for the wedding? I have been using a lot of different methods to get rid of my acne completely, but unfortunately it never completely goes away.
Clarisonic Mia, Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel... the only 2 things that have
worked for my mild acne. You still have time to see results.
Problem is my dermatologist doesn't have anything open for a month
i been reading on these forums about how barley tea gets rid of acne. Search this site for barley tea. Alot of people say it really works. I think the name for it is Mugi cha
I've never used it to treat acne, but barley tea (mugicha, as Alexia said) is delicious anyway! Something that I'd recommend is nettle tea, and any fruit fruit infusion with echinacea. You could even try an echinacea supplement by itself. Twinings make a lovely raspberry and echinacea infusion which I had every day at breakfast for a couple of weeks and it worked wonders on my skin!
Also, make sure you use very gentle cleansing products on your skin, even (and especially!) if your skin is greasy. Milky cleansers and cucumber are great. And always make sure the products are free from alcohol, parabens and fragrances/parfum.
I hope this helps a little - and I wish you the best of luck for the future :)
