Hi all,

Can anyone help me identify how to combat this? I’m not exactly sure what it is and I have these dark spots all over my forehead and cheeks. I am acne prone and some might be from the acne going away.

Dark spots?

Hey all! I have come to a realization (with research) that my acne is heavily hormone based, I reached out to my doctor to get a birth control for acne. I found out that it is common for people to break out when starting birth control and it most likely will go away in a few weeks. I have been on the brand Ocella for almost a month now and have changed my rountines accordingly. I have stick to a gentler and simpler routine. These are some products I use. What do you all think of it? Please share your experiences/recommendations!

Birth Control For Acne

I didn’t have a problem with anything. I would just say that this was more of a winter cream than a moisturizer that I would use in warmer seasons. I could understand if this might feel a bit weighty on the skin for some people.

LOVE LOVE LOVE. Such a go to for the colder seasons! I tend to be against creams because they make my face shiny/greasy but this doesn’t. I got this in the November Picky Box and I’m so satisfied. This is my ultimate holy grail cream. A little goes a long way as well which is always appreciated!

Just the shiny-ness after application like any other sunscreen. May also be too thin for some people’s liking.

My go to sunscreen! I absolutely love the watery-ness of it. Sunscreen tends to make my face greasy/shiny but this one is very minimal. I’m on my 3rd one roght now and I will continue to rebuy!
