Stubborn Whitehead: ( [good fats] [flax oil]

Help! I have this terribly stubborn whiteheads on my forehead and cheeks lower . and blackheads on my noses. I eat very healthy, take my vitamins and drink plenty of water. I avoid wheat, dairy, sugar and fatty foods (unless good fats such as flaxseed oil). I used to use products such as Neutrogena, bior, St. Ives . etc. . But most seemed just to promote my terrible whiteheads (which sometimes can be quite large, and even red when irritated), so I recently switched to natural / organic products

What is less annoying: Mach 3 or Sensor3 [mach3] [blade]

I have a close shave for my job and my Sensor Excel is not cut it.

The Sensor3 is in fact a Sensor Excel with a third blade.

The only difference I can tell between the Mach3 and Mach3 Sensor3 is that more has a Pivot Action with the cartridges. Whereas Sensor3 has the same axis as the Excel.

Now I have just typed, I guess Im wondering what type of rotation is more / less annoying?

Thanks.

Clean and bright with Cucumbers and Garlic [clove of garlic] [cucumbers]

Im making a mask of cucumber and 1 / 4 clove garlic (not). I put it in the blender and apply it to my face for 15 to 20 minutes then rinse. I do this every other day for almost a week and my skin has showed great improvement. I feel my skin tingle the garlic. It feels like it works the second you apply it.

My face felt so clean afterwards. Let me know if you try any of this and have success.

Do you think a diet should provide a good opportunity to do internal cleansing? [getting to the root] [parasites]

Hi.

I wondering, I have lately read so much about these internal ogran cleanse you can do clear up your system and I do not know, they are all very tempting to try, although no guarantee that it primarily for clearing acne. I mean, in theory it would work great, given the fact that acne is a problem inside and get to the root of it by simply detoxifying and killing the existing parasites seems a logical cure. I do not know if this would work other than theoretically. I mean, maybe I s

Prozac to cure acne? [depression levels] [low self esteem]

I was wondering if anyone else read the article in the September issue of Vogue stress and acne. In short, the article says that people with acne have a low self-esteem, have a poor image of themselves, etc. as those people who always stressed and depressed about their skin and all this stress leads to acne (acne or more, or you not cure acne, etc.) so an antidepressant such as Prozac would stress / depression levels and acne would be better off. So I was wondering if anyone on the board was tak
