The Evil Within
My skin hates me.
No, really. It does. It's a temperamental little bitch. Just when I think I have it all figured out. I know what cleansers to use, what moisturizers to use, how to make it all pretty, it turns on me. It's evil. There is so much evilness contained within my skin.
It must be possessed.
I need to get all exorcist on it. Bring out the holy water or some shit. I can't take this anymore. And I'm still waiting for my Lush order to come in. I've been hearing much about these Swiss Kriss "ass flakes" (TM Rachel). Apparently, the herbal laxative makes a wonderful steamer for the face.
But it smells bad.
But good skin.
I think I can breathe through my mouth for five minutes if it means lovely skin. Now, if it smelled like bananas..
I hope it works. I'm at my limit. My skin has boggled dermatologists and facialists. It's sensitive. Too sensitive. You look at it funny, it becomes offended and will produce a blemish the size of a small planet in retaliation. It breaks out if it gets too oily. It breaks out if it's too dry. It's enough to make the baby Jesus cry. The kicker? I had gloriously beautiful skin as a teen. Hardly a blemish ever. This only started in my mid-20s. So cruel. So unfair.
Is this normal? Who else has this problem? Any suggestions? Solutions? Please?

8 Things You Say:
EP i sympathise. As a teenager i escaped the zits..acne and had great skin. Into my thirties,change of State, my skin went and continues to be fussy and easily irritated. Not just my face either...my whole body.
I have been through a truck load of products..expensive/cheap brands some better than others. I resort to exfoliating and moisturising but i try to use very mild and organic type products.
I was also freakishly blemish-free as a teen and I thought it would last forever. Alas, 'twas not to be.
The ASS FLAKES are helping though... get thee to a health food store ASAP and get some. You'll thank me and make me your personal goddess, I swear!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one. Not that I wish this on anyone else, mind you.
I'm going to get those ass flakes. Worth a try.
I'm in the same boat. I had perfect skin in the teens when all my friend were breaking out. I have found the less I do to my face the better off it is. The day after I do any special treatments I end up with a breakout that lasts at least a week. I can't go anywhere near benzoyl peroxide, it literally eats away a layer of my face any time I use it. I'm considering those ass flakes now though. How bad is bad smelling???
Well, Rachel's the only person I know who has tried the ass flakes (Swiss Kriss herbal laxative in flake form) and she said it smells like chicken soup and ass or something very like it. I find the ass part pretty disturbing, but figure it can't be worse than the many diapers I changed years ago.
Or I hope so anyway.
Yes, it smells like chicken soup ass, but it's a small price to pay for clear skin, I think. Just remember to breathe through your mouth while doing the steam and you should be okay.
ok ladies...wtf are ass flakes and can i get em in Aust?
I don't know about the availability in Australia, but they are found online. The ass flakes are Swiss Kriss herbal laxatives. They come in two forms; a tablet (I believe) and flake form. The flake form has a double use as a component in steam facials, but it tends to smell...unpleasant. Or so I've heard. That is all I know about the ass flakes. I'm on the hunt for them and will probably get them this weekend.
