Skin Trouble T_T

summerheaven · 01-29-2007, 09:37 PM

Face: My face is always so dry =( I've been starting to try and do something about this... I exfoliate (Olay exfoliating Scrub) and I put on lotion (Olay Complete) but does anyone know an all day lasting moisturizer? I don't want to buy one for days and one for nights -_-!

Also, I've noticed that I have some blemishes on my face =( On my cheeks there are just some darker (as in, pinker) spots.... Is there anything I can do to make them go away? It makes my face look rough (even though it really isn't).

Legs: There's still a LOT of these bumps all over my skin! I don't know what they are!!! I've had it forever and I don't know what to do! My family doctor said it may just be allergies... but I'm not allergic to anything and it's been on my legs for a long time =| I'm starting to see some on my arms too and I'm freaking out...
My mom says my thighs are oily so maybe I need a lotion for oily skin?? O_o;;; It's weird because the part of my leg (under my knee) is dry but still has those bumps while my thigh has a LOT of the bumps and isn't dry....

Please help!

hrmm, could this be eczema? try eating less shrimp/lobsters& crabs if you eat them a lot. Try to put baby powder maybe to make it less oiley & ekep your skin clean as possible. Try not to wash your face with too much cleaseres, sometiems water works better when you have too many things on your face. and try not to shave( hair prevents too much oil in your skin + at the same tiem keeps soem oil in )..sometimse when i shave& i go into the pool, my skin gets irritated. and try not to use as much pimple creams if you use them, they make the skin really dry & so do some cleansers : ( ( clean& clear/ neutragena?) those brands make my skin dry

I looked up "eczema" on wikipedia and read all the types but none of them describes me.... There's redness and dryness (but only in some areas) but that's about it O_o;

And what I have doesn't look like in the picture!!! The bumps I have are much smaller and just the bumps are red, not the skin around it.

My sister is allergic to shrimps so I guess that I could be a bit allergic to it too! (but we don't eat a lot since my sister is allergic)

Thanks for the tips! I'll try the baby powder thing right away =P I don't use much pimple creams, I use the pads whenever I see a pimple.

summerheave do ur skin itchy too? or not?

summerheaven · 01-31-2007, 09:48 PM

CANDY: If I was allergic to dust wouldn't I have lung problems instead? Not skin? And even if my skin was allergic to dust I think my upper body would be more troubled since my desk has some dust but not my floors so my legs won't be affected? O_o

Viv: Not really. I don't think it's any more itchy than the next person's.

maybe your skin is sensitive. you should probably try baby lotion.
try jonson's soothing natural lotion. its in a green bottle. it smells good, doesn't make your skin oily or break out. and its sensitive enough for babies, so it'll be good for you too.

summerheaven · 02-08-2007, 11:15 PM

Yeah, I think my skin is sensitive. I'll start buying the products that babies usually use =P

My mom has blemishes on her face too and she said that we should go find this 'Soothing Radiance Mask' thing... the brand is 'Guinot' and it's for ultra sensitive skin. The product itself is called Masque Hydrallergic. Does anyone know where to find something like that? My mom got her's from an old friend and doesn't know where to buy it.
