    Like you - (I'm now 28) I still get breakouts. It was actually much worse than the odd little break out until I started a Low GI diet (cannot recommend this highly enough), now my diet has the majority of it under control I Still do only get the odd little break out and I use Sukin - it's organic and completely natural. I get it from the health food shop, it's not expensive and is lovely to use. Good luck.

    I'm 36 and still getting acne. It cleared when I was pregnant and for a year after and now it is back I have been thinking about a low G.I diet too. Have tried all the lotions and potions. It's so depressing . I found Proactive good and the pill - Diane

    Me too - i have recently bought dermilogica after a session with a consultant (who is a friend)... my pores are getting better, but it is taking a while, i think that the hormones are still all over the place from being pg and also BF

    I asked for a voucher for a skin care consultation and a real facial for my birthday (couldnt justify the $130 in my budget) and so i will get my face treated properly and then hopefully it will just be maintenece from there.

    I do find that sometimes i forget to wash my face in the morning as i am so busy, so its hard to keep it under control.

    I use to use cetaphil as a kid, i had really bad pimples from about 12 to 16 (the cruelest years) and also took medication for it - which really didnt help that much.

    The bonus to oiler skin (my mum keeps telling me as she has the same problem) is that you skin doesnt age as quickly - she is in her mid 50's and she looks like she is in her 40's
    Also my sister with drier skin looks several years older than me and is 2 younger - so at least there is one positive to the pimply face

    Try moogoo face wash - its brilliant!

    Also may be worth checking with the doc - I have pimples, have discovered they are really roscea (sp?) and i've got a gel for it which is really helping.
