What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

For me exfoliating regularly, drinking plenty of water, and eating fruits and veggies work. BUT if I get lazy FOR EVEN A DAY, my skin is quick to punish me. And whats even more annoying than acne are the scars that they leave behind.

Guess it all boils down to genetics. I fell on the good side of the gene pool, blessed with light eyes, a dimple, clear skin …So much that a chic once asked if I wear make up :rotfl:

Apnay moonh se apni hi tareefain? It’s not often that a guy tells folks that he’s pretty. Just out of curiosity, if you had been born with dark eyes and no dimple to speak of, would you still think them a blessing? I’m being inquisitive, not snarky.

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

To be honest my skin is a bit hit and miss! When I was 16, I did a course of roaccutane after which time I had flawless, baby like skin for 7 years straight. But lo and behold, after 7 years the light breakouts began again so now I am taking course 2 (on a much lower dose). Can't wait to finish this time around because I love the results roaccutane gives and I don't think any amount of exfoliating, cleansing etc can achieve that (I have used countless products trying).

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

hmm. never really though about it. I don't go a day without moisturizer and keep my skin exfoliated. That's about it for holy grail, i guess.

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

what is the process of ur roaccutane ? products? tell me in detail.

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

Yes, I remember reading that on your blog! Good luck!
BTW, have you tried observing if anything in your diet is the culprit?

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

Roaccutane is a oral drug which can only be prescribed by a dermatologist. It requires monitoring (monthly blood tests) and some people get other bad side effects (hair loss, dry skin, nose bleeds etc) but Allhamdullilah I have been really lucky and haven't experienced these. For me it is the only thing that I know will eliminate acne for a few years (or hopefully forever!).

Re: What is one thing you swear by for having a flawless skin all year round?

Thank you! Hmm there was a time for a couple of months when I thought my diet may be the culprit but I cut out all soft drinks and significantly reduced sugar intake and loaded up on water but...didn't make a difference at all. I think in my case it may just be adult acne (although it is just a few spots really) maybe associated with hormones or stress.

But the last time I took roaccutane...following that...I ate everything and anything ...and had no breakouts at all. For 7 years. So I am convinced that in my case diet doesn't impact the condition of my skin. I know for a lot of people it does though.
