    PJS, have you tried looking for a product with salicylic acid in it?

    Benzoyl peroxide kills the bacteria that cause pimples-so it's more of a preventative.
    Salicylic acid dries the skin to help with the oiliness of the skin.
    A good AHA or product with glycolic acid which exfoliates will also help.

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I have awful skin due to PCOS, I presume you don't suffer from this condition PJSiren? (You'd have very erratic periods)

    I was prescribed the pill as a treatment for the acne but it was sod all help

    I blend these two together in equal parts and then put it on before bed. You can wear it overnight(let it dry first) or for just 20 mins at a go. Clears up my skin and it feels so good afterwards. It is pricey but it doesn't take a lot so it lasts a while.

    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    I always thought that there is no hair and beauty tips.
    As you age there is nothing you can do to reverse it.
    Women products are insanely overpriced.
    There is no such thing as a wrinkle remover.

    Not about "reversing age" - about feeling good. My skins feels better when it gets the lotion - ha! Hair feels better with conditioner, etc.. This can't be a new concept?

    Shit in general is overpriced for sure. Some is worth it, some not. Maybe part of the intent of this thread?

    i feel better after a shower using body wash soap vs. bar soaps although dove works pretty good. also i must use conditioner in my hair or it can not be picked out worth a frigg. mrs. chadwick has been calling me little shirley temple. guess im a dick

    another thing & it is lovely of her, 77% of the time she has to pick out this disastrous madness that is my hair. if i do not pick it out for a day or two therein lies these amazing tangles beginning the erecting of dreadlocks or some such shit

    also i gotta use detangler everyday. currently using a kid's version as they quit selling the brand i was using. they both work nicely

    chadwick, I love it. Kid's stuff is great (I use a Sponge Bob toothbrush for god's sake), as is Frizz Ease.

    And damned if Shirley Temple didn't make me think of her Good Ship Lollipop song and how some of the lyrics were hilariously inappropriate.

    "Happy landing on a chocolate bar" indeed!

    (not that there's anything wrong with that)

    does your sponge bob toothbrush kick seriously?

    It's nothing to do with ageing. My skin gets so bad I don't even feel I can leave the house. So these are much more than 'beauty tips' for some people, it's about self-esteem

    PJ what about birth control pill. That outta do it! Regulates hormones and thats what it sounds like to me. After all the stuff you have tried maybe it's internal. Stress and or hormones?
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    That's what I was prescribed for acne as mine is hormonal, didn't work for me I'm afraid. No harm in trying it though!

    It's a small-head brush, gets around the molars like a champ.

    Thanks for making me laugh on an overall shitty day.

    Beauty tip - laugh lines don't go away. They may make you do a double-take when looking in the mirror but they're worth it, and then some.

    I wonder how pjfan know how much women's products cost...all this time I thought he was a dude.

    My friend did injections around her mouth. She was black and blue at injection sites for about 4 days and she's happy with the result. Personally I didn't see a difference but it made her feel better about them. Live and let live!

    botox creeps me out. I saw a lady that got it overdone, and when she laughed, her face didn't move. :fearful:
