This is some sort of nightmare. Spots, pimples, marks left by them. I actively take care of my skin: I buy expensive gels and face washes, but they're of no use. It's a huge blow to my self-esteem. I've been to the doctor, but the ointments they prescribed didn't yield any results. Can anyone who's dealt with <a href="https://www.harleystreetskinclinic.com/condition/acne/">breakouts</a> tell me how you solved the problem?

The main mistake-you're caring for your skin too actively! It doesn't matter what kind of products they are-expensive or cheap, they all contain chemicals. Try to exclude everything. Buy mineral water with sulphates and just in the morning and evening, wipe your face with a cotton pad, with this water. On pimples, apply sulphur ointment, better with a cotton swab at night.

After 30, it will pass by itself.

This recipe helps me with spots: 4 aspirin tablets, 4 chloramphenicol tablets (not the ones in a blue coating but the regular round white tablets) I grind into a powder and mix with a calendula tincture (it's sold in the pharmacy). You need to shake it well and put it in the fridge. The next day, I apply it to a clean face and leave this mixture on for about 5-7 hours. I rinse it off well with water first, then with a facial cleanser. It's better not to do this at night as I've noticed my skin doesn't really like it. You need to apply it regularly until you see improvement.

Hormones. More of the steroid ones. I had the same, now I don't even have blackheads.
