this how I looked like on Jan 21,2013:
it's horrible. I passed new year's eve like this. I went to dermatologist but it just made it worst. I got Accutane for 3 months, it was like a temporary alive and after that it just crashed down. I dropped all my dermatologist's medications for a whole-month. until, one of my friend, Fania, talked about putting honey on the face. she heard from her other friend who had been suffering a lot from acne healed by honey. she was putting honey on her face every night before went to bed for 10-20 mins.
so, Fania is Arabian. She offered me to buy a natural arabian honey which she and her family use for daily consumption. Well, because I was in my very deeply desperation, I just bought it for Rp250,000 for 500g honey.
at first, I didn't want to believe it, because people who went to doctor or dermatologist for a few years wanted a very quick result, right? but I just kept putting on my face for a month and the result was great. my acne was more calm. I started using Honey every night before going to sleep since May'13 around date 16 or 18.
after a month, I noticed that my acnes was clearing up, It reduced.
I've been using honey mask before sleep for 3 months now, and my face is getting better. maybe for acne scars, it's kinda hard to make it gone forever. it takes time. but for the pimples, it's just fading away. I still break out sometimes, but I keep a normal phase. I put honey on the zits and let it overnight. recently, I found out that honey can use for daily facial wash.
I've been washing my face with honey too day and night. the steps are just like you wash your face with facial foam. here my steps :
1. wet your face with water
2. apply facial foam gently and wash it clean
3. take a tea spoon of honey and put it on your face. this step is just like rubbing your face with facial foam. just make a circular motion. just do like you're washing face! LOL (I do it for 2 minutes).
4. wash your face with water until it's clean.
5. just tap gently your towel.
I stopped using medication from doctor (cream, accutane, facial wash) since in the end of March'13 or April'13. so basically, I warn you this natural remedies work in a very long time. it takes time to make your skin normal again. All I told you in this post is based on my experience.
here, ten commandment for you :
1. don't forget to wash your face every morning when you wake up and before you sleep, for combination skin like me I usually do 3 times in a day or maybe 4 times. when I wake up, in the middle of day, when I just got home from somewhere, and before I practice dance, and before sleep.
2. I can't let my nails grow longer. I always cut them and I don't usually use nail polish.
3. don't touch your face! your hands are dirty (like literally every time). wash your hand frequently.
4. change your towel, and separate your body towel, hair towel and face towel twice a week. for face towel, I could change everyday.
5. change your bed sheet, pillow case, etc regularly.
6. try to use facial foam for normal face and gentle foam like nivea or something.
7. notice your diet or dairy products, or food you've eaten.
8. drink a lot of water. like really a lot. I could drink 3 liters a day.
9. I know for some people this is bad, try to wash your hair everyday. but it's not a necessary everyday. once every 2 days it's okay.
10. don't forget to clean your make up brush after using it.
well, I know suffering acnes can take away your sanity. but just don't stop praying!
like I said, it's a little brief talk about acne.
happy trying! me love ya!
I just taken a photo, pardon my morning face!
