Hey girls I have been having skin problems on my forehead for about 1 2 months now I have a mixture of really red inflamed pimples and just little colorless bumps and nothing works to get rid of this I know it's not as bad as some might have but it has still taken a toll on my self esteem I went from having beautiful skin to just rough skin I know it's probably hormonal acne but I have been on birth control for about 4 months and never had a breakout this bad and when the pimples do go away they leave little brown marks that I can't get rid of either if you have any suggestions I would really appreciate them thanks in advance.

Sometimes I'll switch it up though and I'll use the clean and clean deep clean cleanser with witch hazel and aloe Vera because my skin is very sensitive

It honestly just depends on the day I use an apricot exfoliant 2 a week

Personally I found Proactive to be horrible for my skin and I've heard that some people's skin becomes dependent on it and have a lot of issues when they try to switch to something else. I'd suggest to stop using Proactive. If the apricot scrub is the St. Ives one then stop using that as well, the scrubby bits are too harsh on the skin and can cause damage. What's your skin type?

Try using clean&clear persa gel 10mg benzoyl peroxide, I use it in combination with just micellar water and cetaphil to moisturize, it makes your skin kinda dry but it works so well for me.

Have you thought about switching birth control? maybe ask your dr. if they have had other patients with the same issue about acne and this brand if birth control. in the meantime, I have had really good luck with boscia clear complexion willow bark spot treatment. hang in there and good luck!
