Me and my acne; Week 1 update.

So I've been off my antibiotics for about a week now.

I am fairly reluctant to draw any conclusion as of yet, because last time I came off my antibiotics it took about a month for the spots to come back in their full (horrid) glory, so a week really isn't much time for my skin to get used to not having the antibiotics. But hopefully they won't come back like they did last time (you can read aaallll about it here).

I did decide to come off them at a stupid time, cause it was that time of the month. Now, for me, this means horrid spots even on my antibiotics, so a fair few have popped up over the past week, but they are nothing to really cry over. I can cope with one or two spots, but when it reaches ten...that's when I start to feel a bit shit.
However, my saving grace this week has really got to be my topical retinoid, Retin-A. It is frankly the best thing ever to come into contact with my skin. If you need more information just Google it, there is loads of stuff online about it!

So yeah, overall, there hasn't been much change in my skin, apart from a few small spots due to my period.
Hopefully it will stay that way, but I'll do another post next week to let you know how it's all going!
