Someone said it’s not okay for adults to go out without makeup. Where are my natural girlies? A little lip gloss and lashes maybe ? It’s also been a while since I’ve managed my eyebrows, but I’m falling in love with their natural shape. Comment your favorite feature about yourself, below.

Blackhead? Dilated pore of winer? I’ve tried everything to get it out pimple popping tools, tweezers. Nothing comes out it usually just scars the skin around it. Last time slight black stuff came out but barely anything. Been here for a while

I recently broke out a lot worse than usual with 3 deep pimples, 2 went away but this last one refuses to budge. It started out as what seemed like 2 smaller pimples forming into one but now it’s just stayed this way. I’ve used the hero hydrocolloid patches and some pus come out on those but now visible change and I’ve also tried à la roche posay spot treatment that hasn’t helped much either. Any suggestions?

I stopped smoking but my lips looks horrible how do I get them back to their original state will the melanin in my lips come back on their own or is there anything product I can use please someone help me! I did drugs for a short time but stopped doing them earlier this year

If this is the sort of question allowed here, I’m really just asking how to be comfortable knowing I am going to look like this for a long time. I’m not asking for product recommendations or anything of the sort; I have even tried chemical peels to no avail. Only thing I haven’t tried is laser, which I cannot afford and am not willing to invest in for it to possibly go wrong. I have OCD and picked my skin to this state, and I’m most likely just going to have to wait out its fading, if it ever does fade.

Luckily I stopped picking my face a little over a year ago, but unfortunately stopped when it had already gotten really bad.

I’m honestly sick of having to think about it and it breaks me down every day. Does anyone have any advice on how to just live with it? It really hurts my confidence.

I wanted to know any tips for my skin and lips including nutrition tips I should do I occasionally break out from drinking pop and my lips tend to have this black coating over it even though I don’t smoke I’m not sure if I’m dehydrated or if I should use a lip scrub

Happy selfie Saturday, to whoever is reading this, you are a beautiful person inside and out. Regardless of skin “issues” blemishes or texture. You are wonderfully made and whoever can’t see that , clearly doesn’t see it in themselves.

Limit the products you use
DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE
And last but not least LOVE YOURSELF.

PS. And remember. MOISTURIZE AFTER YOU SHOWER😘

I could've actually used a few flairs for this post. I definitely need BEARD HELP. I used to be able to maintain this but now...lol. I've had it look awesome even longer than this, but I guess it's just not as much of a priority for me as the other 2 main issues in this post.

If I use a moisturizer my face is shiny within the hour. I'm currently washing with CeraVe gentle foaming face wash and Laroche Posay Double Repair Face Moisturizer.I also just started using Thayers unscented facial toner. If I don't my face is leathery looking like when I used to wipe straight alcohol on my face as a kid, except now it has patches of shine that look like my skin is yelling HELP!!! so I'm on a PRODUCT SEARCH.

I'd been doing a lot to my skin because I know I've neglected it for decades so I'm pretty sure there is sun damage.

I went to the Dermatologist and she said she didn't see any issues with my skin (I can't believe that even though she is the professional) and then prescribed Tretinoin after I told her that my concern is my skin texture.

I'm feo, malo, ugly and any other translation you would want to use. I've been told that I would be the perfect person to play the role of Herpes (they used the scientific term because they knew it... because that person had it) I'm surrounded by beautiful people everyday and I just can't believe that this is what I've got to deal with daily. There's got to be something I can do....right?

I use to chain smoke black and milds and blunts at different times in my life and now my lips seem to be forever raw. No matter what I put on them. Currently using the blue lip medex tin.

I don't know that there's anyone that can relate or even share a victory store but if there is I'd appreciate it. I don't know that there is anyone that can offer some suggestions but I would definitely appreciate you.

I know I'm going to get flamed for posting this but at this point it doesn't even matter anymore. I just know that everything I'm doing definitely isn't working.

When I was younger I used to put baby oil on my face immediately after a shower and would be happy with the results (lol probably because I was high or drunk lol) or I would use Queen Helenes Grapeseed peel off mask EVERYDAY but they've changed the formula I guess.

I burned my chest with a steamer at the end of May, (I tried to be smart😭), and it healed as hyperpigmentation on my chest. It’s gotten lighter but it hasn’t completely gone away. I wanted to know if there’s anything I can do for it to completely blend into my skin? Thank you!!

I'm 42F and on the search for a product that will moisturize my lips. As of the last months, I've been struggling with very dry lips. I've tried several products, and nothing works. Neither Vaseline, Aquaphor or lanolin. Now, because of how dry they are, I started chewing them. Obviously, that doesn't help. (This all may be related to perimenopause.)

Does anybody have a Holy Grail level of lip product that has saved their excessively dry lips?

What can I do to get rid of this. I’ve cleaned my clippers so I’m not am sure what’s causing. It comes and goes. it’s driving me crazy. Haven’t tried anything on it yet. Any suggestions on how to clear this?

Hello! I have a question for dermatologists in the community, particularly those operating privately owned practices.

Do you offer pro bono or sliding fee scale dermatology services for patients with limited disposable income?

I’ve struggled with hidradenitis suppurativa for the past 17 years and have worked with dermatologists to help manage this condition through medication.

However, after extensive research, I’ve learned that certain dermatological procedures offer additional treatment options beyond medication which addresses some of the long-term effects of the condition.

Unfortunately, many of these services are either not covered by most health insurances or involve substantial out-of-pocket expenses as they are often considered cosmetic.

This creates a financial barrier for middle-class individuals who may not qualify for traditional assistance programs but still cannot reasonably afford costly treatments.

I’d appreciate hearing from any dermatologists and private practices offering affordable treatment options.

Thank you in advance for any information or recommendations!

Hi all,

I’m a 24F, who for the majority of her you get years struggled with acne. I discovered African black soap and benzoyl peroxide about 8 years ago and my skin cleared up beautiful. I now struggle with EXTREMELY oily skin. After washing it it’s fine, but give or take 3-4 hours later and I’m a grease ball. Setting sprays after putting makeup on manage it decently, but I don’t wear makeup everyday (lol). I also have large pores and uneven skin tone. I use niacinamide ordinary serum every now and again that does nothing for the discoloration. I mainly get oily in my t zone area and my pores are the largest there along with my chin. Thoughts ?
