Does anyone know of any natural solutions for acne? Ever since I went off BCP (about 3 months ago) my face has erupted with painful cystic acne! (And I had such beautiful skin before!) I feel so much better off BCP and doin' my natural stuff, but this acne is awful! Any suggestions, ladies?
You might want to consider any possible dietary causes, such as sugar, grains/bread, and dairy. My acne improved 99% when I eliminated these things from my diet.

Okay.... I'm already taking fish oil so maybe that will help.
I already cut out most sugar (in the form of sweets and soda, at least) when I went off BCP 3 months ago. I also switched to whole grain breads and pastas. I admit - I can't give up dairy! I'm such a picky eater, if I gave up dairy my diet would be SERIOUSLY limited!
Fish oil is great. Consider taking cod liver oil with high levels of vitamin D and A. Also, don't be afraid of getting some natural Vitamin D from the sun.
