Acne vs Me: my struggle with acne

Hi my name is Jane, I have struggled with acne since becoming a teen, I am now 35 years old and still getting breakouts.

I have only ever experienced clear skin once and this was when I was into my third month of being pregnant with my daughter (back in 2009) right up until she was 9 months old (this was 3 months after I stopped breastfeeding her). I can honestly say my skin was floorless. Since this time, I started getting breakouts again, but only on my face and neck.

If you are reading my blog, then I guess you are suffering from acne too, or know somebody who is. I know that it doesn't just have an effect on my confidence where I can limit eye to eye contact, however the pain behind the spot(s) isn't fun to put up with.

To put it in simple terms, I know the spots are there, it doesn't make me feel attractive and they hurt. I would like to get rid of them. After trying many things on prescription, over the counter etc nothing has worked.

I started seeing a homeopath in September 2011 to help correct my hormonal inbalance since having my two children. I suffered from irregular bleeding, low on energy, tiredness all the time and mood swings. As she is helping regulate me internally, which is almost back to normal, I have undertaken research to correct my skin...

What works for one person may not work for somebody else but its worth a try. I will add photos throughout my blogs so you can see if the products I have chosen to try, work OR not.
