DAY 1

I'm back on the Proactiv Solution regimen.



If anyone has known me long enough, they will have discovered my lifelong battle with acne. And I've had to tolerate different dermatologists and stick to several kinds of treatments to keep acne breakouts at bay.


One of which I'd fallen prey to was Proactiv... After some time, I suppose my body grew immune to the medicine. 8 years later and I'm giving it another shot.

Acne is incurable, whether caused by genetic makeup or lifestyle. But it can be controlled.

My blemished skin has always been the main reason for my occasional bouts of low esteem. and usually encourages my dependency on makeup though i realize that actually clogs up my pores, adding on to the problem. Bad enough redness and inflammation really show on my skin tone and complexion.

Jumping back on the Proactiv train is an attempt to substitute the regular dermatologist appointments I would be making if I were home in Manila. Seeing as I can't afford to see a dermatologist here in the US, let alone LA, a trusted treatment will have to suffice -- even if it is solely advertised on cable television.

Received the package in the mail earlier this morning.
Ordered the 5-piece Total Plus Solution with Advance Blemish Treatment for $29.95. 

Thank the internet gods for Paypal.

Here's to hoping I get good results and avoid looking like an unhealthy wreck.




I'll be taking note of the progress (or God-forbid, the lack thereof) from now on.
Let's see how this goes down.
