Ahh cool, well Ive had bad acnes when i was younger between 11-15 year old.

the best way to rid yourself of acne- high pressure tanning beds- no joke. I had horrible acne when i was younger (i have scars to this day from it) and nothing dermitologists would perscribe would help. most of that over the counter stuff did more bad then good imo... tanning in a high pressure bed, however, has ALWAYS wiped it out for me. Even some dermitologists reccomend it for severe cases.

EDIT- I do like the biore pore strips though, they DO work at removing visible blackheads

Well, tanning beds are good...but you can get skin cancer from that thing! so it not good to go there always. Id go there 4 times a month , Natalie saw pics of me I got some nice tan from tanning bed. You guys should go too.. haha

getting cancer from a tanning bed can be a bit of a misconception... I work at a really nice tanning salon part time and you learn tons of stuff about the beds and other stuff like that. The UVB ray is the ray in tanning bed lights (and sun) that causes your skin to burn, and its the main ray that can increase your risk of cancer. Good tanning beds have cobalt filters (cobalt is a mineral, it gets set into glass shields for the beds) in them that filter out 99.8% of the UVB ray, thus taking out the true risk of getting cancer from tanning too much. Ususally only high pressure beds have full cobalt filters, however... in our salon all the beds except the stand ups and the basic beds have some sort of UVB filter. Tanning 3x a week in one of these beds would increase your risk, but the other beds pose a minimal risk, the ultrabroze beds posing almost zero due to full cobalt filtration. Staying in the sun for approx. 4 times that of tanning will give you equivalant risk (so 2 hours at the beach, no sunscreen, is the same as 30 min of unfilterd tanning)... tanning lots, will hoever, spped up the effect of aging on the skin (just like the sun will)...
