Lately I'm just getting tired of these stupid bumps on my face. I just don't know what to do anymore. I try to use products for acne to deep clean my pores, and to get rid of the oil cuz my skin tends to get oily on my forehead and around my nose.. but then my cheeks get really dry, so I try to moisturize my skin... but then that causes my skin to get oily again and then my skin just gets really bumpy.. it's a vicious cycle! I'm a girl so I guess it's easier for me to just cover it up with make-up but at the same time i think it's harder being a girl with KP because of the expectation to be perfect, with flawless skin. I never feel as pretty as other girls, even when I am wearing make-up. The bumps are still there and I feel like the make-up looks like ****. I really don't know what to do about it. The picture I posted is one that I took today. You can see the redness but it's hard to really see the bumps, but I can definitely see them when I look in the mirror. I just want soft skin!! Is there anything that has really improved KP on the face for anyone? BTW i have tried St Ives, and it didn't help. And I can't find the Eucerin Redness Relief here in Canada.

hey there!

Just want you to know again that you're not alone! I deal with it all over and also on the face. When I touch my mom's face and skin its like wow! is this what most people's healthy skin feels like! For the rosea, the redness, there's a v beam laser that's supposed to get rid of that if that bothers you. For the bumps, I would suggest trying retin A or this thing called green cream that also is retinoid based. Some had a post on the green cream. Retin A and retinoids in general take some time (6-12 weeks) to start working on your skin but once they do you see results! I really think Retin A or green cream is one of the best things you could try. Don't scrub or wash your face harshly when on it. Be consistent and keep using everyday . Be patient. Don't go out into the sun. It's prescription, but the green cream isn't. Tell me how it goes.
I'm here to help!
