best you can do is be effay in spite of it, never because of it

No, wash your face.

>>14068378
thanks never thought of that

Only if it’s from Sweden

>>14068378
with or without soap?

That makes acne worse, fucking shill

>>14068347
This is what happens when you keep telling guys to cum on your face

Hahha lol

No, but i am sure you can fix it and you will be 8/10

Acnes 87% genetics

Washing your face won’t help most people

>>14068578
Hey, someone with some actual sense.

>never washed my face
>still haven’t had acne
Feels good desu

>>14068638
Same lol

>>14068347
Not a chance, it's basically coded in a human's brain to find acne unattractive. Take a look at these models and tell me if you see even a hint of acne.

>>14068578
If that were true, no one would have acne, because people with acne don't have sex.

>>14068663
Not true at all, for example to me almost all girls are the same looking, i like girls with good personality

You have autism, kys

>>14068673
A lot of people are more forgiving of acne than you would expect. At least when they're young. Historically that would have been time enough to reproduce.
But here's the other part of it: one's acne might just be their skin trying to expel something their body does not like that traditionally their ancestors were not exposed to.

You have the taste of a 13 year old from 10 years ago...a 13 year old with below average taste even for their age. I'm not sure what else to say. You constantly astound me with new levels of shittiness. Are you a refugee from r9k, a, or some other weeb board?

>>14068347
it already is effay, just not for everyone imo. I think stuff like acne and eyebags can accentuate facial aesthetics. it feels more grounded in reality than some supermodel with pure skin.

Acne my jacket from Sweden

1. wash with a foaming cleanser, I use formula 10.O.6's best face forward daily foaming cleanser
2. Use a salicylic acid spot treatment, I use e.l.f's acne spot treatment gel w/ aloe
3. Use a toner, I use clean and clear's tough love toner
4. moisturize, I use foruma 10.O.6's thirst no more moisturizer

I use the cleanser at night and just rinse my face in the morning
hope i helped some anons out <3

most tips are bullshit. if you have strong acne you go on accutane etc. i have slight acne and the only things that work to some degree (no deep acne anymore) is chainging the pillow sheets every swcond day, black african soap and some acne water (basicly zinc and some alchol) in the evening. at least now i have not this realy ugly acne but only shallow one.

>>14068958
This is bullshit, I don't do any of this, hell I barely wash myself and I don't have a single spot of acne

Its all genetics you morons, but enjoy spending shitloads of money on stupid skincare treatments, whatever helps you sleep at night...

>>14068578

This is true, my dad had horrible cystic acne until he died in his 50s and I inherited it to a lesser degree.

>>14068929
Holy fuck you're embarrassing.

>>14068929
i really hope you look back at those days you posted on 4chan with an faggot anime name, a faggot anime picture and a faggot anime video and because of how cringe you where you jump off a bridge

A lot of people report better skin when they don't consume dairy.
What if slight lactose intolerance manifests as acne in which case what would happen if you started taking lactase?

>>14069046
It does not follow logically that a course of treatment does not work because the condition is a genetic one.
Male pattern baldness is genetic but can be treated with a great deal of success in many cases.

>>14068347
No. Use Isotretinoin before your face gets all scarred up from popping zits for years.

>>14068404
if you use soap use something simple like dove scentless soap.

>>14069587
thats not how that works

THREADLY REMINDER THAT R E P O R T I N G AND F I L T E R I N G IS A THING.

>>14070294
The claims are sometimes that it's not dairy but something in dairy today that shouldn't be and that if we had proper raw milk it wouldn't happen.
I know my lactose tolerance isn't great and I also get adult acne.
People on elimination diets can experience a great deal of improvement in their skin so there is probably SOMETHING worth cutting.
I got better skin doing keto while I was also consuming a lot of butter which is dairy but I don't believe it has much lactose.

how to fade acne scars?
i dont have the typical deep ridges/scars, it's basically faint red spots under (?) my skin.

being /fa/ is a lot more than facial genetics

No. Acne is and always will be disgusting. And that is coming from someone who has a lot of it. Im 2 weeks in on an accutane treatment though so hopefully it will fuck off once and for all.

>>14070799
Bastard.

>>14068347

i remember when i was in 7th/8th grade and getting some insane acne, my girlfriend's niece whispered to me that my girlfriend thought the pimples on my upper lip looked like a mustache, and that it was hot.

pic related for any newfags that want to know how to block tripfag "personalities"

How do you guys avoid acne after drinking a lot of alcohol ? I always wake up with more acne than before after drinking...

>not much acne but a bunch of pores that are either eternally enlarged or causing bumpy skin.
I have had some general skin success in using a simple aloe/jojoba mixture. Doubles as a moisturizer and post shave balm.
CHANGE YOUR PILLOW CASE also.
>>14071550
Probably less to do with the alcohol itself and more the lack of hydration, sweating, forgetting to wash/touching your face, etc.

>>14068929
You're a faggot LOL

>>14071177
That's fucking gross but I think human psychology might ignore pimples at puberty to a certain extent.
Think about how many guys and girls were at your school dating and having sex when they were greasy and covered in them when that time of life is also supposed to be the most shallow, right?

For exp. I didnt have parents when i was a kid it will be hard to break me but good luck i guess

>>14070314
I thought it was due to some hormone in milk, not the lactose itself. Either way, my acne got way way better after cutting out diary, so I think it's worth trying for a month or two

>>14072273
Deleted

>>14068578
That's bullshit, sure Acne can be genetic but it still mostly has to do with your diet.

>>14072421
Actually your post is bullshit because while diet does affect acne it is mostly genetic. Dermatologists will tell you that eating unhealthy will not help your acne but it isnt the cause of it.

>>14072421
>>14072438
It's both.
Imagine no one in the world had acne but then we all started drinking "unobtanium smoothies" and 10% of people started getting acne.
The 10% of people had a genetic allergic reaction to the unobtanium so they got the acne.
So their choices would either be live with the acne, genetically modify themselves or stop drinking the smoothies.
Only one of those options is both desirable and practical.

I am such a faggot holy shit!

Go get a food allergy test. I found out I was allergic to eggs. After I cut out eggs, my skin looks better and my scalp isn't flaking.

>>14072273
So you're already broken. Job done.

FUCKING HELL

>>14074990
Change your pillowcases and cold press your face every morning.

>>14075878
Yes that will 100% get rid of every spot on your face...

There has to be more to it than changing a pillowcase and putting water on your face

>>14074990
I went to a dermatologist for a year straight and that’s the best thing I’ve ever done. Trust me, the process can be slow depending on your problem but the results are great.

once I dated a person with acne and it became something I thought was kind of cute

You really need to take a deep look inward if you think this (or any) tripfag is based.

>>14075923
Try Teatree oil pads from the store. It works.

Can anyone explain to me why disgusting moles/birth marks can be had all over women people consider to be beautiful and no one mentions but acne is cringe?

>>14076647
Because acne is related to being unhealthy/dirty. And birthmarks don't look as disgusting as a puss-filled pimple.

>>14076616
>>14076105
Based

>>14068578
this is nonsense and you know it, you chips eating faggot. My dad has horrible acne and I unfortunately got his skin, we both burn into a crisp in the summer but I don't have his awful acne ever since I turned 18, stopped drinking any kind of sugary drink, stopped eating salty snacks and most chocolate and started washing my face with dove soap 3 times a day.

Also that 87% is how many dumb nigger genes you have.

>>14076875
Most people's acne goes away around 18 as your hormones settle down. If you started eating like shit again, nothing would change (assuming you don't touch your face with your fat greasy fingers). You can't attribute a natural outcome to change you made.

I just turned 29 and noticed my forehead is getting a little bumpy. not screened red acne but just bumpy.

how do I fix this and what's the cause? never used to have pimples or acne

also post some cute girls with acne pls

>>14077103
>tfw acne got worse after 18

>>14075923
Changing your pillow case often is good advice for reducing acne, since your pillow case does get dirty and that dirtiness will rub off onto your face. Freezing your face might temporarily alleviate some of the redness and inflammation associated with acne, but it won't actually do anything to reduce your acne, and it may damage your skin. Washing with cold water will also often give the impression of "tightening up" your skin but that's a short-lived side effect (once your skin warms up, it will look normal) and it may actually irritate your skin. You should use room temperature or slightly warm water to wash your face, not cold or hot water.

There's a lot more to it than that though. First, you need a decent skincare routine aside from acne. Wash your face with a cleanser for your skin type, moisturize, and wear sunscreen. Cleanser will clean your skin without drying it out like soap will, moisturizing is good for your skin no matter what (yes, even if your skin is oily), and sunscreen will keep the sun from damaging/aging your skin, (and acne-wise, help the post-inflammation hyperpigmentation and eythema (the red and dark marks left behind from acne sometimes) heal more quickly)

For acne, there's a lot of treatment options. Here are the common ones, and with all of these they make your skin drier and more susceptible to sun damage so moisturize and wear sunscreen.

Benzoyl Peroxide - fights the bacteria that causes acne. You can get it in 2.5%, 5%, and 10% strength. Go for 2.5%. BP is very drying and can be irritating, and the efficacy differences between 2.5% and 10% are minimal, so your skin will thank you for using 2.5% instead of 10%.
(1/3)

>>14077932

Salicylic Acid - Chemical exfoliant with some anti-acne properties. You can get it as wash, in a cleanser, whatever you like. You can also get high strength concentrations to do your own at-home chemical peel, but you probably shouldn't if you don't want to fuck your skin's moisture barrier.

Antibiotics - Antibiotics kill the acne bacteria. You can get topical antibiotics like clindamycin or oral antibiotics from a dermatologist. You really need to use benzoyl peroxide alongside of any antibiotics to reduce the risk of the acne growing resistance to the antibiotic.

Retinoids - The only OTC retinoid is adapelene at 1%. retinoids increase your skin cell turnover, which helps, and are suspected of having other acne-fucking-up effects. Be warned: retinoids are associated with purging, because as your skin cell turnover increases, pimples that were under your skin will rise up and show, and so your acne will most likely get way worse after two or so weeks, before getting way better. People without acne will also go on retinoids cause they're great at preventing wrinkles and aging and such. You can go to a dermatologist to get stronger topical retinoids like retin-a and such

Accutane - Technically a retinoid, but it's taken orally and it's much more intense than the topical retinoids you can get. Might make you bald and leave your bowels permanently inflamed, and other shitty side effects, but 99% of the time, will permanently kill acne.

(2/3)

>>14077935
Light Therapy - Blue light at ~415nm damages the bacteria that causes acne. Red light at certain wavelengths can disrupt your sebaceous glands and reduce the sebum your skin produces and promote some healthy, anti-aging shit. I know it sounds fucking farfetched, but it's legit (you can find some of the studies and read them yourself if you're skeptical). neutrogena has a mask that's cheap ($30ish?) but it has some bullshit where they make you buy a replacement "activator" after 30 uses - but you can bypass that by opening it and soldering a wire onto it, there are guides on youtube, it's fucking simple).

Don't throw it all at your skin at once. Except for the light therapy, everything you can do for acne is also irritating to your skin at first. Follow the instructions/dermatologist for each product you add, add them one at a time, and add them slowly.

And every day when you're putting on your benzoyl peroxide, topical antibiotic, topical retinoid, moisturizer, sunscreen, light mask, and whatever else ends up in your regimen, try not to think about how you have to do all that shit just so you have normal skin while most other people don't have to have a skincare regiment just to avoid having the skin of an unwashed teenager.

yeah my acne started getting worse from 17-19 once I hit 20 it started getting a lot better

>>14078518
I had terrible acne all through high school and even through college. One of my friends once asked me, point-blank, "Why the fuck is your acne so bad?" A girl caressing my cheek said, "Wow, your skin is way smoother than I thought it would be." Apparently I guess she imagined it would feel like concrete.
The acne cleared up almost the very moment I turned 23... after I was no longer in an easy dating pool.

>>14078709
>you forgot facial washes
did you miss

>Wash your face with a cleanser for your skin type

>you forgot regular exfoliants
no modern dermatologist recommends physical exfoliants over chemical exfoliants, and as far as acne goes, salicylic acid is the standard exfoliant. Physical exfoliants are unnecessarily irritating and less effective than their chemical counterparts, and other chemical exfoliants like glycolic acid just aren't as good at fighting acne.

>you forgot touch your disgusting face less.
true

> you forgot examining diet
true, though the current research is iffy about how much diet affects acne, and some dermatologists will say it doesn't while others say that maybe high glycemic affect it some, for some people. And of course, if you're eating anything greasy, you have to take care to not get the grease on your skin.
