gay, I can't use the combined pill, mini pill is inferior :(

On topic, my skin usually gets better after a boozy night. Maybe it's something to do with alcohol being dehydrating, drying your skin. I dunno.

If I remember/am sober enough/can be bothered to take off my makeup before I fall asleep after a night out, my skin will be ok. If I forget or I stay out literally all night (hence wearing make up for like 16 hours or more) then I'll pay for it pretty badly. Only, it's not the next day. It becomes apparent like three days later, so I'm all 'yay I escaped it' and then Tuesday rolls around and I look like a "before" shot for a miracle skin treatment ad. :( It usually calms down by the end of the week but it's damn annoying.

I'm looking into going on the pill to stop the hormonal breakouts around period time as well...because that's the most annoying, like a sign on your face telling the world your rags are on the way :eek: and there's nothing else you can do about them! They aren't from your diet or anything, it's just your body being shit. grr.

This is exactly what happens to me.

Like I need another reason to feel shit at period time.

And my current pill does nothing about it, so it's time to change.

If I can take a pill that will clear my skin as well as all the other fun benefits, why not.

Awesome.

but theres so much trial and error with pill types. Some girls who take a certain brand, like yasmin or something, would have clear skin, but others break out and get fat etc.

Weird.

But almost all of them give you massive jugs.

Haha so true.

For the first few months at least. Or if you start skipping the red ones, holy shit, jugs ahoy!

use a steam bowl for your face
wash face with cold water
scrub
cleanser
and do that every month.

i find this helps open the pores and clean them out.

Wow what crazily good advice. Do you read?

I said I do that already. I'm almost 21 now, that's almost a decade worth of skin trial and error of products/cleansing etc.

We're talking about sporadic breakouts to normally clear skin

i don't think there is anything you can do, especially as a guy. if i have a huge night then i'll get one or two little ones over the next week which last a few days, they are hardly noticeable though.

Those things are scary.

The pill I'm on is ok, but I'm sick of breaking out.

Don't do this. You'll get crazy ass pores the size of swimming pools.

As for skin breakouts, just leave them. Everyone dies at the end anyway.
