This morning I was looking in the mirror at a small zit on my face. If there is such a thing as "small" zit. Anyhow, I was thinking that I'm 35 years old and this is just getting ridonkulous (my word just to annoy people lol). I know it's normal to get a breakout near that lovely time of the month but as a teenager I had amazing skin. I rarely had breakouts and when I did, it was just one at a time. Then I became an adult. At that time, my body decided to let loose all that it had been storing up through my teenage years. I started to get... ADULT ACNE! Gasp! It sucked. No other way to put it. So I tried everything including Pro Active. That sucker tore my face up. I started chaffing in my eyebrows w/ that! So after trying everything out there I went on the internet (my BFF and I would be lost if it ever de-friended me) and found a site where people were talking about the Patricia Wexler line at Bath and Body Works. So with much skepticism I purchased a trial pack. I figured that this wouldn't work either and I was most likely wasting my money. Well, I have to say that several years later I am still a faithful user of the Patricia Wexler Anti-Acne Wash and Overnight Repair Lotion. I'm telling you it works! I do still get the occasional pimple once a month but it is nothing like before. I'm sure that skeptics will say that I just outgrew my adult acne. Nope, not the case! When I have run out of my Wexler and used something else, because I haven't made it the store to buy more, I start to break out again. The stuff is amazing and it's not badly priced. The facial wash is $16 and the lotion a little more. The wash lasts me quite awhile and that's with both of my girls using it too.
Who knew I could just sit here and type and type about acne. hahahaha I guess when you're putting off studying you'll do anything. :)

Thanks for letting know about that. We will have to go find it. Lily and Carl are having a time with Acne. And Proactive is a joke. The stuff doesn't work...Have a great day...
So glad it works for you! That's exactly how I feel about Philosophy Purity :) now I only breakout when I use the retin a rx.
