It Sucks To Be Me

What IS the craic? I'm approaching my 26th birthday and my skin's worse than a 17 year old. I don't understand. I'm eating better than I've eaten in years. I'm dinking less than I've been known to drink at times. I'm not stressed atall so why the adolescent skin? Yes, I'm young at heart and have been known to act like a foolish teenager but is this the price I have to pay for clinging desperately to my youth? Apparently so. It sucks but even though zits are for losers I'd rather have bad skin than a mortgage. However, it doesn't change the fact that, not only do I have bad skin, I'm going to be a 26 year old with bad skin. As a wise woman once said It sucks to be you.

I sympathesise - my ski also appears to think it's still pre-punescent and at times behaves in an unrulymanner. What to do with it - I just don't know. No sooner will I be rid of my acne and I will need to worry about wrinkles. Christ sake.
The readers digest story made me laugh.
Hope you're well my love - I just got back from an Egyptian holidays with Moms. Egypt was arid and desert-like. Some of the men had exquisitely beautiful faces. Moms A made me manic at times - I told her she needs to stick with travelling in coureies with white people who speak English as the mother tongue - anything else is too much for her. Not my ideal travel companion.
I wish my bank balance were growing - am paying off pesky debts. By next March I will be debt free. Then all my pennies are going into a travel fund and I think I might go live in an Asian beach ut for 6 months while contemplating what to do with the rest of my life. Sounds dreamy.
I wish I was born a pirate. Damn and drat
I should really be doing some diploma work - motivation is lacking.
Wo'nt be too long before I get home to see you all - canna wait.
Amsterdam isn't that long off either. This makes me happy.
Lots of love.

Hannah,

Salicylic acid acne treatment will take care of it in no more than three weeks - guaranteed - provided you wash three times daily, mornings, afternoons and again before going to bed. It really really does work! It's an extremely effective and gentle acne cream cleanser and wash, and it's oil-free. Made by Neutrogena, it is 'Dermatologist Recommended.'

It comes in a 6.7 Fl. Oz. tube and I would highly recommend it to you.

You should find more information on it here:

Hannah,
Make sure to get the one with the Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment (google it).

Here's a part of what it says on the actual tube:

'Oil-Free Acne Wash Cream Cleanser'

'effective yet gentle acne cleanser'

'salicylic acid acne treatment'
----------------

I'm adding this extra post because I was unable to find that actual product at their website even though I know it's available at every pharmacy in the US. You may need to call them to find out more about the salicylic one.

I think you'll be very happy with the results! Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I've been using tea tree oil which is definitely helping but I'll give this product a go.
