    Default THE cure for bacne

    I had terrible bacne from ages 12-20. In fact it was all over my shoulders and chest too.
    I always wore tops with sleeves, refused to go swimming, and it was a nightmare during summer. I had tried topical creams from the doctor, every otc acne product there was, and antibiotics and none worked.
    Then along came mr. wonder product. Within a few months my skin was almost perfect. I stopped using it a few months ago and the spots came back with a vengeance. After two weeks of using it again i can see a huge improvement.
    What is the product?
    A humble bottle of head and shoulders (yes the anti dandruff shampoo): i use it like a topical cream after i shower every day. It's too harsh to use on my face but it works wonders on the body. Ok so i have learned that if i stop using it the problem returns, but to me its worth it.
    It has been discussed before but i just wanted to get it out there to any women who have the same problem and have exhausted most avenues.

    what do you mean you use it like a topical cream? After you shower, you apply a thin layer and let it dry without rinsing?

    Hey! I have heard of this method before and I forgot all about it...I'm gonna give it a shot.

    Isn't it great when you struggle with some issue for most of your life then you find a way to fix it? That's a great feeling.

    I use head & shoulders on my back and chest. Just the regular 'classic' shampoo. I use it as a body wash in the shower. I clip my hair up on my head, put in on my back and chest, and leave it there for a few minutes while I do something else like shave my legs or whatever.

    I have never put it on like a cream... but it seems to work for me how I use it. I might give this method a try though...

    You can use it in two ways:
    -If you have dry skin then apply it in the shower,leave it on for a minute then rinse.
    -If you don't have dry skin then just rub it in and leave it after drying after your shower(doesn't leave a white residue like you would expect).

    WOW I've had problems with chest, back, AND arm acne. Weird because I hardly get acne on my face, just everywhere else lol. I've never heard of this and I'm extremely excited to try it! And here I was blowing lots of cash on supposed acne cream. Unbelievable!

    Maybe there is an actual topical creme with the same active ingredient?

    Even if there was, I'd just go with the H&S because it's so freakin' cheap. But I'm a cheap ass lol. Hopefully that will change once I start dancing

    The anti dandruff shampoo is helping? Sounds like you have a festering fungus in your bod.

    hahaha I hope not! I haven't tried the anti-dandruff shampoo thing yet. I'll post here once I get some and try it out for a week or so. I mean, anti acne stuff helps, but it doesn't get rid of it completely.

    Nah....it's not a fungus..... The reason head and shoulders works is because Body Acne is caused when the tiny hair follicles all get clogged by sebaceous fluid, then it backs up, traps skin (so it can't shed at a normal rate), gets irritated and presto: acne. Pyrithione Zinc (active ingredient in head and shoulders for those who don't know) draws that gunk out of the follicles; allowing skin to shed normally, on your scalp, it gets rid of dandruff....on your body, the acne.

    no festering fungus Kistune summed it up pretty well. I'm going to back it up with zinc tablets and see if that helps even more

    washing the body AFTER you rinse conditioner out of your hair helps in a big way too, as it washes off any film the conditioner might leave behind on your skin as it rinses down the backside of the body. seriously, i just changed the order of operations in the shower and bam. pretty great.

    It can be difficult to make a recently single man pay for sex when he knows that a quick trip to the local watering hole would secure at least one hard drunken tumble for far less cash. It is even more difficult when he is something of a dead ringer for James Bond as played by Daniel Craig and possesses the sort of awkard charm and confidence that brands a man like him as a lady killer.

    bahaha! we're ALL hairy, trust me! There are tiny hair follicles all over the body....luckily, you just can't see most of 'em.

    Good point, Rebecca.....That worked wonders for me too! Someone suggested it to me one day, and I wondered why the hell it hadn't occurred to me that maybe conditioner running down my back just might be a bad thing.

    I've known about the conditioner thing for a few years. I've actually noticed that my hair does better without conditioner a lot of the time... I have no clue why but it just seems to be a fact about my hair. (At least the stuff I can afford to buy. Maybe there's some fancy shit out there that would work, but I'm talking about the normal stuff.) My hair is very fine... Anyhoo I'm getting off topic!
