Clean and clear deep action cleansing wipes are the best thing thats ever happened to me.
And Nivea Young, moisturiser.
Oxy5 pimple cream

My godsend! My skin is usually pretty good but these three would be my 3 essentials

doctors and dermatologists just provide you with what will solve your problem, even if it's temporary.

your body might gradually become immune to the medication, or become reliant on it, or have nasty side effects, but as long as your original problem is solved, they've done their job. '-_-

which is why sometimes you need a bit of medical knowledge to know to what extent you should follow doctor's orders.

@ sugared plum: my mum does that all the time :p she knows her chemicals and she keeps telling me off for using the wrong ones, or using them too much. but it's good advice. i'm going to become a pharmacist :D

What works the best for blackheads? Because i find that i normally get pimples as a result of me squeezing any blackheads i get so if i can get rid of them, pimples would be less of a problem.

Having regular peels is all that's ever helped me with blackheads, kind of expensive though :eek:

garnier deep clean foaming wash- is the cleanser i currently use. quite good.
vitamin e day lotion- from the body shop. smells delicious and is so light, yet works so well. its my favourite moisturiser
i use a facial scrub once in awhile..ten-o-six- nothing special but it does the job

i agree. i have pretty good skin, only get the occasional pimple, not dry, not oily etc. for a long time all i would do was wash my face with warm water in the shower cos that's all i needed to do. now i just use very basic johnson+johnson cleanser and moisturiser. i think it's best to leave your skin natural, unless you have problem skin.

Yeah agreed! I have really dry skin since I have eczema/dermititis etc and I barely EVER get pimples so I just use Clean and Clear Blackhead Cleanser cus its creamy and exactly the right consistency for my skin. Everything else usally dries it out and then i need a tonne of moisturiser to get my skin supple again.
