Hi Patty, I hope your problem is gone by now. However, if it is still on your face, why don't you try one cucumber a day? Not only is it good for your diet but also great treatment for your acne. Try for a month and see the changes. (i.e. My best fr…
Another fantastic product to try is the Wonderbar. I believe that Beauty or Bust also reviewed this product on their blog with great success. It works on all skin types and we have been having a lot of success with clients who have had cystic acne.…
Ok, so I took the advise and tried Epicuren's Acidophilus Probiotic Facial Cream and I love it. I can already see a difference in my pores and although I still had one breakout, none of it was cystic. Thank you so much!
Hi Patty,
I've dealt with acne for many years now. I highly, highly recommend Epicuren's Acidophilus Probiotic Facial Cream. It's done wonders for me. Check out my review here: http://www.beautyorbust.net/?p=2779
I have recurring cystic acne and have not found a cure. They are very painful and if they surface before they heal they usually scab and peal. I am constantly trying to find ways to heal them and always apply additional makeup to cover them.

- When I am in a hurry I put my moisturizer on and right after use my finger to apply my makeup. Hands are always clean of course. Still goes on even and you don't have to worry about cleaning your brush after. Works for me!

Cystic acne

- I feel for you, big time XOX. Empower your most beautiful thoughts from the inside out. Say, "I am more and more beautiful every day" as you improve both your skin care and makeup routine. Consider an internal herbal cleansing (3-28 days) and possibly a doctors care for western medication. Depending on your point of view about medications, there are effective meds to assist in controlling cystic acne. Some women see improvement with oral contraceptives...no comment....otherwise there a few cosmetic things you can do. Use oil-free moisturizers and makeup. Don't use harsh facial cleansers or over cleanse. Try cetaphil for a cleanser. Soothing your skin with high quality aloe vera after facial cleansing is good. Drink lots of water and vitamin C..I like Emergen-C powder that you put in water and drink. Eat a balanced diet. Some sun may improve healing but not too much and keep the sunscreen off open cysts if you have them. Adequate sleep helps all breakouts. Have you tried seeing a dermatologist or internist?
