I've always wondered why my dermatologist never prescribed me any sunscreen :< He says it just worsens acne and it's unnecessary when you stays indoors most of the time.

However, a lot of articles online emphasize the importance of wearing sunscreen daily. So, I'm really confused as to why in my 4 years of acne treatment (I had acne for 8 yrs), my derma didn't prescribe me any sunscreen up until now.

Should I trust him? My acne subsided, but it left me with a lot of acne scars and PIH.

Sunscreen is  😵UNNECESSARY😵

Any tips on how to manage back acne? I sweat a lot so I guess it exacerbates my skin condition. My derma prescribed me with a topical treatment (acne med toner), but I can't reach some areas on my back and I find it so hassle when I have to put the product on a cotton pad first before applying it all over my back.

How do you treat Bacne?

This works every time! It draws pus out of my pimples and zap it away overnight 🥰

But I once saw on tiktok that “hydrocolloid bandages” work just fine like a pimple patch. Any thoughts on this trending hack?

I just clicked the notification saying there's 2nd round for those who weren't able to comment on the brand's first discussion board. As I was trying to comment on the post, the text I'm typing doesn't show up. So, I closed the app, and opened it again but can't find the post now. 😔

Is there a way to search for it?

Hi! I always prefer to remove my underarm hair by waxing.

However,  I get persistent ingrown hair whenever I do such. I tried to put on a clay mask on my armpits to detox 'em, and I also apply a niacinamide serum every night. But nothing seems to work. I use dove as my deo,  could it be the culprit? 

Any tips/suggestions/product recos. on how to treat ingrown hair and lighten dark armpits?

Dark armpits + ingrown hair

Hard to rinse off once it stays on the face for too long

Gently removes dead skin cells, keeps oiliness at bay, &amp; leaves the skin glowing and healthy in complexion

It&#39;&#39;d be more hygienic if it&#39;s container is a tube instead of tub, because there&#39;s no spatula inside to scoop the product.

Given that I have an oily skin, I tend to skip moisturizers as they are very sticky on the skin and some even clogs the pores. But this one from @tiam_global is an exception! I&#39;m obsessed with it!

📍CLAIMS:
An oil-free moisturizer that intensely hydrates skin without leaving an oily or sticky residue while cooling the skin upon application.
💯Dermatologist Tested

📍KEY INGREDIENTS:
Niacinamide, Black Currant Fruit extract, Glycerin, Citric Acid

📍PACKAGING:
Product is housed in a frosted tub with white solid screw cap.

📍SCENT &amp; TEXTURE:
There is no fragrance so it&#39;s recommendable for those who are sensitive to scented products. Consistency wise, it leans more on the gel-type of moisturizer even if it&#39;s named as a cream (AC fighting Oil free Aqua Cream)

📍THOUGHTS:
This oil-free moisturizer is included in their acne-fighting line, especially formulated for those with acne-prone skin. So, that&#39;s a good factor and sets my expectations high on this product!  And even if my skin is so oily, I find it dehydrated &amp; irritated due to harsh chemical treatments I&#39;ve used for my acne. That&#39;s why I gave this a try and it didn&#39;t disappoint me. Upon application, it really has a cooling sensation but is tolerable. It easily absorbs well on the skin without stickiness at all. It leaves my skin looking plump with healthy complexion 😊

📍FINAL VERDICT:
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟&#47;🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
It does its job pretty well and is suitable for my skin type. ❤ Perfect for the summer season as well ^^ so it&#39;s a YAY for me!

The only downside of this product is the dropper which is kinda loose. It&#39;s a bit messy to use because the serum easily falls off, so you have to dispense the product on your palm as quickly as you can.

This double-lightening serum is true to its claims:
✅ brightens skin
✅ fades dark spots
✅ treats skin discoloration

Reeks of alcohol :( scent is quite overpowering

It effectively heals acne and improve skin texture ❤

It would be better if a mini tong or clipper is placed inside the tub 😊

Great for those with acne-prone and dehydrated skin ❤ It calms redness and soothes the skin. I actually love everything in their Pure Fit Cica line 💯
