Hello everyone:)
I'm new & thrilled about the opinions I thought I'd see on skincare issues.
However, being a member for less than a day, I noticed that many ladies here have a tendency to "cover" problems rather than treat them. I'm sorry, but foundation, primer, powder or fancy packaged creams are not the solution to your largest organ's disease. Not to mention the fact that acne could indicate something more severe, so it is a doctor's job.
Dermatologists exist for a reason. After all, nothing represents "beauty" more than healty skin.

Ps. I'm a civil engineer, not a dermatologist; )

I think you'll find that this is a matter of age. Younger girls who have not seen the effects of life on their skin other than a couple of pimples are less concerned about skincare than us old biddies.

It's hard to view it as a systemic problem when your system is on top of the world.
