My biggest fear....

My biggest fear....

for my wedding is that i'm going to break out on my wedding day.

This week i have accumulated 7 yes 7 various pimples on my face. I haven't eaten any fried food or chocolate in large quantities (some may think this is an old wives tail). I think b/c i was stressed out this week and rather angry with my FMIL was the cause...

i am a daily user of proactiv, and i immediatily did a mask yesterday and then this morning did the 3 step......... this has not happened once in the 2 years that i have been using the product-- so i know its stress... but now i feel vulnerable for this to happen on my wedding day!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry!! Try not to worry Call your dermatologist and talk with her (or him) and see what you can do if this happens a few days before or even that day. I am sure that they can help you

eta: for spelling

Awww hang in there and try not to stress too much. My skin is the same way and so needless to say I've been breaking out like crazy. I've even considered buying proactiv because it's gotten so bad at times. It's funny everyone says you're supposed to have that
'bride-to-be' glow. I don't have a glow, I've got zits!!!

Well at least you took the proper steps to get your skin back in check and it's looking better right?

thanks girls. Proactiv does work though you should try it. I haven't been using it twice a day like i used to so i am going to start from now on. i normally only get the once a month zit.. ahhh

Oh will think positive it won't happen!

What's funny is that my e-party is next Sunday and I never get pimples. I wake up this morning with 5 pimples scattered on my face. FaceneH is like what happened to your face you never break out! I was shocked when I looked in the mirror I am like great I am going to have pimples at my party!!

Seriously I never get pimples!!!!!! I hope it goes away.

Aww Mel don't worry. Just keep up with the Proactiv like you should and pay attention to how your skin reacts. If you see it still happens in a few months you might want to see a dermatologist just to be safe.

Definitely drink large amounts of bottled water. My dermatologist told me that water helps clear your skin because it flushes out the impurities that have a tendency to find there way out of the pores on your face. Good Luck.
