I was on a heavy course of antibiotics 2 years ago shortly after that I began my battle with fungal acne. It took me almost 2 years to figure out that it was fungal & not bacterial.

This ruined my face! I didn’t know that my dust mite allergy also made me allergic to this. I used it for five months and everything seemed fine, but then I started to get a goatee of fungal acne with big red patches. I’d also been getting a lot of big pimples in my hairline from it. It’s taken me months to understand what happened and to soothe my sad skin. Be warned not to jump off the bridge Show more
