I'm on what seems like a shitload of meds, but it really works, finally! I'm taking tetracycline, Yasmin birth control, Retisol-A Forte, and Stievamycin (both topical tretinoins, ones a moisturizing cream with sunscreen for day, ones an alcohol-based gel spot treatment with an ingredient that helps to limit reddening, irritation etc for night.) They're all prescription, and they work really well. Now I only get maybe a few pimples during mestruation, and if I'm eating alot of junkfood (right now, halloween...) I'll get a few scattered little ones. My only problem now is with picking - If I stopped, I would be able to have essentially near-perfect skin.

Hi,
WHat can be very effective and natural without any chimical is....... EMU OIL. Use it for scars, acne, excema, dry skin, cuts, wounds.
Emu Oil is highly moisturizing, a natural skin softener and has rejuvenating properties ( has been shown to reduce the depth and length of fine lines & wrinkles ). It is also non greasy and highly penetrating. In fact Emu Oil has demonstrated to be the fastest and most penetrating oil into the skin, making it an excellent trans-dermal carrier for any other added moisturizers or therapeutic ingredients.Healing takes place more rapidly because Emu oil has healing properties and does not cover the skin with a petroleum type air barrier. It allows the skin to breathe and heal.
Emu Oil is natural & non-toxic, non-comedogenic (does not clog pores), hypo-allergenic (non-irritating) and gentle for all skin types.
Emu Oil is an effective anti-inflammatory. The potency of the anti-inflammatory effect from Emu Oil is similar to ibuprofen without the negative side-affects frequently common with traditional prescription or corticosteroid based anti-inflammatory medications.
