the best combo ever was when i went on tour with my band, sharing a hotel rm every nt w/ three ppl so i couldnt really pick anyway but regardless:
i was on ortho tri cyclen which made a HUGE difference-- my skin was lovely. no hormonal breakouts whatsoever!!! BUT still tiny blackheads... then my mom ordered me proactive and i skeptically tried it and... it totally totally worked. that combo was amazing, and the other SUREFIRE cure is to overhydrate. i'm talkin' two of the BIG bottles a day, no less if you want effects. it also makes you lose weight!!!!!
but now i had to go off the pill cuase it made me fat, and i had to stop proactiv cuase it dried me out and made me all red when i moved to LA. also, it seems dangerous to use when you go in the sun a lot.
now i'm doing super luxury crazy products from saks-- kanebo "creamy soap" and remede alchem,y are hard to find and pricey but magical. and kiehl';s calendula tonerTEXT ::)after a picking session reeeeeally speeds the healing with natural products. i'm starting to move away from allthe harsh products derms give, like tend skin (although thats great 4 body)
and... this is probably gonna cause a huge uproar but... the most helpful thing in the world for me when i'm dangerously inspecting pores and hairs, etc is to sit the fuck down and smoke a joint and put on love's "da capo" album or the carpenters, pull outfits from my closet. i know it might not be that practical for you moms but allowing myself a teensy bit has really changed my skin and my life!!!!! (just don't have junk food around)
