Acne, even though I'm using facial cremes?!
Question:
Acne, even though I'm using facial cremes?
I've been using daily prescribed facial cremes for my acne (Clindamycin and Tretinoin), but for the past month and a half, all I've had are continuous breakouts (about a new pimple every two or three days).
I've been feeling stressed during this period, and I was just wondering if this stress is overriding my medications, or if my medications need renewing...?
Thanks in advance.

I have the same type of problems. Stress is a big part of it definitely. Also, flucuating hormones could have a part in it. I was basically told that until I get out of puberty, there's nothing I could do because my chemical balance is out of whack. Mostly, I would just make sure that you use your medication as directed, and don't miss any treatments. AND, moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. I can't stress this enough.
