RE: Coming Undone
Hmm I think I've tried retin-a, though not sure. It's one of those products that dries the skin a fuckton, isn't it?
in here but it sure as hell is on real life.
Exactly why it's impressive to share this. I mean, most people would just be glad to get away with them and never reveal the reality.
You're a cool chick, Eve :)
It doesn't actually dry the skin but increased the cell turnover and collagen production, the skin kind of sloths off in thin layers, and better skin comes from under it, yay! Retin-a is a topical vitamin A, but then there is accutane that everyone talks about, it's basically the same thing but a lot more hard core taken as pills of course.
Ah i see. Yeah, I have a friend who's using accutane, but I don't know...I've heard some pretty gruesome stories about that one, so staying away.
Hmm must've gotten products mixed up then. This retin-a sounds promising..

It works for most people, but some get horrible side-effects, so that is why I opted for the topical, as the second to last option to cure acne. I use it a few times a week overnight and if I feel like my skin is getting too sensitive, I can easily take a week off. Highly recommend at least doing a bit of research for it to see if it might be helpful for you too.
