To all those who have suffered as I did,

 
We all at one point or another have been faced (pun intended) with the dreaded form of acne....(shuddering) but we all believe (or at least some of us) there is no hope to get rid of them. Well I tell you now that you have a hope. I know  because I used to suffer from it really badly, but others would say it's just my imagination. Is it my imagination when I see a whitehead forming on my cheek or chin or forehead!! I think not!!! Do you not understand that it's an annoyance and a bother more than a problem (I know that sounds weird but it's true)
 
The fact that you have them popping up every now and again doesn't become a problem more than an irritation. Especially if you don't have the right thing to make it disappear or get rid of it. Now for myself I used to pop them myself (yes I said pop it!!!!....listen here Tyra Banks herself is a self confessed zit/pimple popper on her show when she had it dealing with skin issues, so don't cringe your face like that it's life) but I heard of so many different things to get rid of it. I won't even begin to get into them, but I will mention the one thing that surprised me when I used it.
 
And that's the Mary Kay Acne Gel....yes I am promoting my own products but I am only doing so with the ones that I have used myself and have seen good and proper results from it. And have also had clients be happy they ordered it from me also. You put in on the problem area (the zit, I still pop it before I put it on if I can just so the medication can go into my pores. But I don't suggest you do that, it's just what I do) Now I can honestly say when I do that the problem (zit/pimple) goes away the next day....or there is a very very slight remembrance of it being there. As for the marks, there are no marks on my skin after doing it.
 

This worked for me and if you give it a chance it can work for you also.

I have thought about it over the past couple of weeks and the thing that bothers me the most is why do people care more about what they wear on their body than how their face looks. Do you honestly think that by wearing something sexy will stop people from seeing what's going on?

Listen ladies, your skin is all you've got. Now don't get me wrong while making sure you look great is always a good thing. What does it profit you to look awesome physically and then the first thing that a person sees (your face) isn't taken care of the way you should be taking care of it.

And no I will never suggest wearing makeup to cover up any of your imperfections, that will only make things worse. You cannot put something that enhances your beauty on a slate that is clearly not clean and healthy.

But think on this, your skin is the 1 thing that you go through your whole life with. Why not treat it with the love and attention it deserves? I mean who else is going to take care of it for you??
