Good luck man, gf had it and I felt so bad for her. It’s hormonal right? Making it even harder to resolve? The worst part of it is people giving normal skincare advice and not hormonal skin care advice lol

Yo this so much…. Normal skincare advice do not work lol. Even with prescription topical retinol it’s difficult enough to manage.
My dad thinks it’s shingle and keeps asking me to go to this folk medicine place involving them snapping some rubber band near the ears to “kill” the snake…. He said it worked for him 🤣
My gf gets a lot of generic advice like changing sheets, wash face, use moisturizer, etc. But one advice stuck out to her - it is to take a spoonful of extra virgin olive oil every morning before eating. Weirdest advice she’s heard, and she heard it from two people on completely separate occasions. Both these people also dealt with hormonal acne.
Does it work? We don’t know because on the first day of trying it, she learned that she hated the taste of a spoonful of extra virgin olive oil lmao so I can’t vouch for it.
I rather drink kerosene than drink extra virgin olive oil…… hahahah.
The doctor that saw me actually asked me to stick to the basics and don’t even use skin care other than moisturiser. Asked me to wash with warm water with a “mild” moisturiser like Cerave.
Well that Cerave actually gave me worse breakouts and Rosacea…. So recently been using some leftover Korean cream.
But basically I’m just so fed up, I have zero control over how my face look other than to wait it out.
It’s the thing people comment about first thing they see me even, ie. my partner’s parents : oh dukeGR4 your face so many acne you still wanna order spicy hotpot broth?!
