During that time, I was really getting frustrated with the oiliness of my face! I was using Proactive Acne System then, but time just came when my face stopped responding to its Benzoyl Peroxide content. Sad. :(
So knowing I could return online purchases after 30 days of trial, I experimented on different brands! Clinique, Body Shop's Tea Tree Oil products, Life Cell, Neutrogena... in the last quarter of the year!
PLUS, some more factors: the stress and late nights on graduate studies, the dry and cold weather here in New Mexico and the unusual amount of MILK consumption the last month of the year...
RESULT: My face rebelled and declared WAR! Lol!
Points to ponder:
1. I think it would have done me good if I experimented on the products and then gave my skin some time to breathe before applying another chemical! But then again, now I am giving up on CHEMICALS!!! See related post here! Toxic chemicals to avoid posted here!!! Let's go organic, herbal and natural!
2. I am not a milk drinker but last December I was feeling lazy, since my husband was having his grand vacation, see post here! I just ate cereals and milk for breakfast and lunch for almost a month!!! It may have been the chemicals given to cows to change its hormones so it will keep on producing milk --- and whatever that is, caused me ACNE!!!
Bottom line, an ORGANIC milk may cost a dollar or more, but worth it!!! than buying ordinary milk.
Back to my story,
For some divine intervention, I happened to read through the benefits of ALOE VERA and this company called L'BRI. So I took the risk, AGAIN! (got nothing to lose that time, it has been a month and my face was getting worse!) So, I tried their sample pack, it was free, I just paid for shipping and handling.

(I actually bought the actual products even before the sampler pack came in! I just knew I had found my solution! Talk about mind-setting!)
Anyway, here is the result after 15 days of use!!!
I am so loving it!!!
I am still hoping my acne scars will get healed too, it still has the nasty marks but my acne is almost 85% dried up!!!
Let's wait and see some more... I'll post my skin's progress on the 30th day! (Feb. 24, 2013)
For now, here's me!!!!
See the skin difference too? My face is getting lighter!!!
NAMASTE.
