[quote=Anonymous]I did accurante and it worked while I was on it and for about one year after and then my acne came back full force. It was like I had never done anything. I also have PCOS now but don’t know if that’s related. I’ve found a few things that help, in addition to both oral and topical medications. 1. Be very, very consistent and regimented with skincare. 2. If sweat, since face with water. 3. Wash pillows routinely and change pillowcases nightly. 4. Find products that work for you but don’t use anything too harsh. These don’t have to be super expensive but don’t use just anything either. Think Cetaphil, cerave, Neutrogena, Purpose, etc. 4. Be careful with makeup. Don’t ever wear if going to sweat and only wear non-comedogenic. 5. Find a sunscreen that works. Generally avoid chemical sunscreens. I use EltaMD UV clear but some friends like Cerave and La Roche Posay. 6. Double cleanse if using sunscreen or makeup. I use a little jojoba oil and a warm washcloth and then wash. 7. Stay hydrated and sleep enough. 8. I’ve heard limiting dairy helps but I’ve never done it. [/quote]
