Pictures of my skin today

Sometimes I feel like I'm going backwards with my skin, it's so much worse now than it has been in the last few weeks!

The majority of my acne is around my chin which, if face mapping is correct, is due to hormones. I've recently started taking Dianette again and I had hoped that that would help control the hormonal effects!


These spots are so persistent; they have been there for 2 weeks now and if one fades another pustule pops up next to where that one was!!!

I'm going for a Micro Peel tomorrow (combination between a microdermabrasion and a peel). Usually, the practitioner will avoid doing the microderm in any area where there is active acne to avoid spreading the bacteria so hopefully the peel will help get rid of it!

The spots were cystic, they've gone down a little bit now but have definitely caused scarring around that area. Lumps are the worst because even if you cover them you can still see them!


It doesn't look too bad on there but I have zoomed in quite a lot, the most embarrassing thing was that before my friend put the picture on facebook she airbrushed my face... Should I be thankful she did it or upset that she thinks my face needs airbrushing?

I was really impressed with Lorde who posted a picture of herself on Twitter naturally next to one that had been airbrushed by photographers! 


She's a good role model for young girls to have!
