I've had troubled skin ever since I was young. I was one of those unlucky girls that had pimples all over my face and body.
I went on so many facials - Dermalogica, Sothys, Philip Wain - you name it, I did it.
I tried so many products - Lamer, Shiseido, SKII - all expensive but none worked.
And finally, I took Roaccutane for 6 months just prior to my wedding. It worked temporarily, but once I stopped the pimples came back with a vengeance. However, it did clear up my back acne up till now. So, yay for that!
While watching my wedding video for this post, I was SO shocked to see that my acne was so severe. I didn't notice in the photos since they're all airbrushed. And I actually forgot that it was that bad! No wonder I never leave the house without concealer then!
Towards the end of 2011, I was looking for acne treatments. I remembered I was really stressed out with my skin condition. It was then that my sister told me about acne.org
At that time, my sister was experiencing a sudden breakout on her forehead and cheeks. She found Dan's simple (and cheap) regime and followed it exclusively. It only took a couple of months for her pimples to clear up. So I thought, if it works on her, why not just give this a try.
And I thank God that I did!
My skin improves drastically, a month into the regime. I didn't get new pimples. There were only existing ones that was drying up and blackheads on my nose especially.
After a few months, my skin completely cleared up. There was no pimples and no blackheads. Just scars and enlarged pores.
After I came home from my short stint in London, my friends commented that my skin was flawless. Never, in my whole life, would I have ever imagined hearing people saying that about my skin!
Now, I am still pimple free. I do have some blackheads on my nose, but a good scrub and mask usually takes care of that. My scars are lighter, but some are still visible. But, I am not complaining!
I am so happy to have found the skincare regime that works perfectly for my skin! I don't even own a concealer now. Woopppp.
THANK YOU DAN!
If you suffer from acne, please give this regime a try! InsyaAllah, it'll work on you too :)

So, are you ready to see my before photos? Here goes.....
I cringe looking at these. Taken 3 years ago, during and post wedding. Pimples were so red and angry! |
And this is me now! :)
This photo is not filtered or airbrushed at all. I wasn't wearing any makeup too. You can still see some scars on my forehead and cheek, but overall I'm all cleared! :) |
