For those of you with problems of acne [natural sweetener] [bad acne]

I am not a person with bad acne, but I can tell you without doubt one of the things that made me break out like a teenager.

Aspertame and saccharin, or sweet n low nutritional know. Every time I drink a few diet drinks break my face like a mad man. My advice is to drink only water. I know its hard but I know for a fact that is what caused my face to break out. Use natural sweetener Stevia if you need water and lime or lemon. soda or make a custom sprite if you carbonation.

HELP! Swelling on skin after putting ice on pimple! Have wedding tonight! What to do? [pimple] [baggie]

Please help me!

Last night, I tried a rather tame little pimple on my face. After washing my face, I placed a bag with an ice cube on the pimple and surrounding area for about 3 minutes. I then went to bed. I woke up around 3 hours, looked in the mirror and saw that the area where I had placed the ice was red and swollen. The pimple, you think, was almost non-existent. But ack! I am now left with a 2inch by 2 inch area on my face that is red and raised!

Hi, I suffer from mild to moderate acne throughout my teenage years and now in my early 20s. About 2-3 years ago I remember that at this board, reading about B5 and go. After about 4-5 months of 6g/day my skin not fat, unfortunately, remained a number of acne, but it was even better! Well I have the B5 expensive, I paid my way through college by working a crappy part-time job and just could not afford any longer, so I had to leave B5, so I could eat and pay my tuition.

Now I m 22, I l
