acne

[calli]

We all know that some gear makes you break out more than others. Some break out while on gear, some following the use of gear. What do you guys use to help with acne. I've heard tanning and swimming are good ( chlorine ) but is that a good way to stop acne. Is there a compound out there that you guys use to control acne?

Vitamin B5 is great for controlling acne. Also tea tree oil products, tanning like you said, and drinking more water.

is vitamin b5 the best way to control it, as far is medication is concerned?

 

[StackIt]

Probably the best of seen outside of stuff you need a prescription for. Obviously accutane and things like that are gonna be better at controlling it than B5, but not as easy to get and also more expensive.

yea go with the accutune but becareful cause that shit has some side effects to it to that suck. you can go to your skin doctor and just tell him that you want to take it they will need blood test and shit to see how your doing

good luck

Does it work good enough not to need to take anything?

What is it about tanning that works so great? Is it the fact that it drys out the skin? Or is it that UV light kills the bacteria on your skin. What I'm really asking is how often to tan to deminish the acne? One or two longer sessions a week, or just like all other things....moderation. Little bit every day?

i usually tan 3 days a week. and when im "on" i tend to get a little acne on my back, but tanning does help b/c it dries out my skin. when im on a cycle my skin becomes really oilly and thats why i break out. just my .02

 

[Mr. Black]

Accutane.

Tanning dries acne out so it will not develop if you are consistent with tanning.
1-5 grams of B-5 will help also.
