[QUOTE="Star*, post: 270761, member: 4964"] People obsess about their face - and ignore the rest of their skin....the skin, is the largest organ of your body. We forget that the water we shower in - isn't necessarily filtered - but yet we spend tons of money on filter pitchers, glasses, and fridge water filters. My Mom is the only person I know who has a shower filter for her skin. And she has near flawless skin. She also spares no expense on face goop. Our dermatologist told DF that the ONLY soap anyone should ever use on their skin is Dove Sensitive - either liquid or bar. It's mild enough to use on your face, on your girly parts - and it leaves enough moisture in your skin that after about a month you have noticeably more pliable, resillient, glowing skin. I used to get ashy elbows in the winter. This was the first year I have not - and used Dove exclusively, then moisturized body with Nivea Soft cream and used NOTHING on my face except some Olay Regenerist nighttime serum around my eyes and ever drooping mouth. I have Rosacea - so nothing really helps - except watching my diet - but that's just it - DIET, stress, environment, that time of the month all have a proudound effect on your faces skin. You've never said how old you are - so that has a lot to do with it, but then again - I'm 40ish and still get worse zits now than I did as a teen. (Nice - figured that would be long gone) Make sure also that when you are messing with your face that your hands are uber clean. I think I'd make sure the dermatologist had enough time to address my needs. It sounds to me like you have (sorry but think so) an ingrown hair. Ahhhhh being woman - ain't it grand? and ALSO - for those of you who shave? My dermatologist ALSO told me that a single blade razor is FAR superior to stopping secondary infections from shaving - and always use a new razor OR at the least soak your used razor in alcohol over night then lay flat to dry. Or just wait until you're in your 40's, have raised a difficult child to a young adult and your hair will all fall out anyway - and finding your MIND will be paramount to a zit. :knockedout: [/QUOTE]
