Creams For Acne
This is the very question I found on several message boards, and surprisingly not many people had an answer ready for it. Is there no acne cure for folks with darker skin?
Creams For Acne
I've gone off to investigate the situation. There are many good products available, and something has to work for every skin care and color, no matter what. I've check out the producs properties, the websites advertised, read through countless posts on different acne forums, message boards and online groups. And what were my findings?
Creams For Acne
First of all, there is a myth that all acne products work the same for all skin types. This is wrong. There is also the myth that the people with dark skin have it much better, because their skin is tougher. The opposite is actually true. Dark skin is sometimes more difficult to treat for acne, pimples and acne scars, because the skin is usually more sensitive! Who would have known, right? I mean everybody is feeling sorry for the Nordic European girls who burn their faces by being in the sun for more than 10 minutes.

Truth is, if you have dark skin and have severe acne, you might notice that once the inflamation has retreated, the skin has now a lightened (hyperpigmentation) or darkened spot (hypo-pigmentation) shade. These spots will go away with time. But who has the time? Not when you're that close to Christmas, or to your next prom party, or to meeting your first date just in a few weeks time.
There are a few things that DO work. However I also found that not everything works. Some type of products leave this skin discoloration I mentioned above and it's darn difficult to fix it in the short time.
