I would think this or any electric razor would be fine for somebody with pimples, better than a regular razor.

It didn't make his face worst just didn't help the shave to be better. He didn't complain of further irritation. Hope this helps a bit.

Please ensure that excessive pressure is not applied when using the shaver. Your skin and facial hair take about a month to adjust to new shaving methods.

I have very sensitive skin prone to breakouts so I am very particular what products I use on my face. Nia 24 is fabulous- I have been using it for a few years and have never had a problem with breakouts. I highly recommend this!

I agree with Barbara. I am 51 look 38. I too am more dry and have never had any acne issues. I take very good care of my skin including the use of sunscreen religiously, washing my makeup off nightly, using good oils such as roseseed hip oil, coconut oil, olive oil and never using any products that contain alcohol which is drying. That's why I've used witch hazel for a long time serves as a great toner without over drying your skin.

I used this product because of a YouTube makeup tutorial and chose lightest shade. It is the only experience I had with it. I would think the lightest or medium would work well for you. Hula by Benefit has a nice one, too. Sleek wasn't very expensive so not a huge investment if it doesn't work. Good luck. Isn't it fun being a girl :-)

Yes it's ok w/ oily skin! I had horribly oily skin, large pores, and adult-acne; so bad that I had to change my cleanser. I changed to Sebamed's face&body; wash which helped w/ all of those, but I felt like I needed a moisturizer to help w/ the wrinkles. I've used this cream for a couple weeks now and have had no problems w/ it causing any of my previously mentioned problems. :) In fact, I haven't had to use an oil blotter since I started using this cream!

This is a good one. Also like MT brand. I don't buy the cheap ones, like below $20 simply b/c I don't want to take a chance on problems. How I clean mine: soak your roller w a denture tablet after use, in a plastic cup so you don't damage the needles;let air dry a couple days; cover it when completely dry, then 30 min in 70% alcohol before you use it the next time. Follow their directions for cleaning, but this is how I do it based on research on derma rollers. I derma roll regularly and it makes a difference, skin texture is finer, pores get smaller, acne pits smoothing out, crepe texture less, my skin is getting thicker. It is very slow, but hey in a year, if I didn't do something my skin would look a year older. This way, it is getting better. Good luck to you! BTW 1mm is a good safe length, follow directions. It shouldn't hurt, shouldn't bleed. It feels prickly. If it hurts or bleeds, you are pressing too hard. If your skin doesn't get red, you aren't pressing hard enough. Be careful around your eyes. I test to see if I am indeed breaking the skin by dabbing a little alcohol on a spot. If it stings you are doing it right. Do at night so redness will be gone by the time you get up. Also the little micro holes you are making are perfect for putting on collagen inducing products like vitamin C and something with retinol. I only use 2 products, and they make a huge difference. Your skin will soak up the C fast, straight to the dermis, which is where collagen is produced. Collagen means tightening. After 15 months of rolling you'll have a whole new network of collagen under your face!!! and we know what that's gonna do lol!! tighten up all those sags & lines!!! :)))) Don't roll over fever blisters (you'll spread them) and don't roll over moles, etc.

Yes, you can use these masks at 20! Its very popular in korean for people in their 20's to use these. But don't over use them, make it a spa treat. I think there might be a lightening agent in these so be careful over using them if you have darker skin. Test the mask on a small part for your face if you have sensitive skin or are acne prone to see if you have a reaction. I use these as a treat to rehydrate my face once or twice a month. No more than that.

Don't worry about which model to get, worst investment I EVER made in any type of beauty product! Try seeing a dermatologist and esthetian to work on skin problems.

Just buy all or just try one. We all have different skin tone . One thing for sure is it won't make you white like Edward Cullen from Twilight. It will blend with your skin and you might also need to use concealer or foundation or powder. You won't regret it.Even if you don't like it still good for nice present. CC cream is also popular now. I am thinking about buying CC Cream soon. Mean while I already ordered milky skin cream for face and body and 2IN1 Galactomyces secret whitening cream from ebay. I hope it works just as they describe. Above of all drink lots of water. Good luck.

At age 22 you probably don't need a FIRMING serum! That said, the ingredients are all very safe, I feel, so i'm sure it wouldn't be bad for your skin!If you have any stores nearby that offer sampling of products (such as Whole Foods Market) you can try it out before buying!

I'm only 22 but my skin has moderate acne spots/scarring - after a week of using this I could definitely notice the spots fading and overall skin tone improving, almost to the point where I don't need to wear concealer.

Hello. I have battled with acne my entire life and still do. My acne has been moderate but slightly more severe here recently, I'm 24. I would suggest this product but not for acne scars, the only thing I've found that works so far is bio oil. I used it every day sometimes twice a day just before bed and at the start of day. I'm not gunna lie it's greasy as hell use it fresh out of the shower and/or right after washing your face. I was impressed with the results, my skin had a slightly more youthful appearance and a significantly smoother look which u know makes a world of difference lol. Now for discoloration I use an all natural method a lil weird but a potato. Slice a thin layer off each day and rub the juice all over especially on the effected area. Google it! Potatoes have a chemical in them that stops hyper pigmentation that causes the dark marks but won't bleach your skin. Sorry this was so long but this is what works for me thanx.

I have had good results with the entire obagi nu derm system. I have a lot of wrinkles and acne scars and still have a tendency for acne. Obagi nu derm is for normal to oily skin or you can get the dry skin version. It works great on pigmentation issues and fine lines and overall appearance and texture of the skin. Obagi also has a line with vitamin c for mature skin. It is best to use the whole system together. It is pretty pricey, but you can't invest at your kit will last a minimum of three months and then you just replace the individual items as you use them.

I would start with just a few drops to see if it agrees with your skin. My teen Daughter is using it for her oily skin and so far so good. Incidentally, she started to washing her face with an oil cleaser, and the results are incredible. Minimal breakouts after that and her face is not as oily. Insta natural has an oil cleanser that we will be trying out after our current bottle is out. I would definatelly give it a try, if it does not work out, give the IN folks a call and they are wonderful. They'll set you up.

By the way, I'm 40 with pretty decent skin (age-wise). Most people think I'm 30. My problem was hydration. So my esthetician, recommended Vital C instead. I prefer that as well.

I would check with a dermatologist as I do not specialize in medicine but I have heard Proactive is an excellent product to gain control of Acne prone issues and perhaps then once under control and if your skin is not oily this product is so great for keeping skin smooth and not dry but check with a medical professional regarding acne issues!

I'm 21 and I started the switch when I was 19. To be honest, you need to understand there is only one blade as opposed to 2-5 blade razors out there. This means you will need to make more passes across your face. But its not as bad as it sounds. Also, I will say that the disposables you use have a lot more tolerance for incorrect angle. The heads pivot no matter where your hand is angled. These razors have fixed heads (no pivot). So just GO SLOW and look up videos on youtube for proper advice. These razors don't have a "lube strip" BUT they do have a "guide" that helps prevent you from cutting yourself a lot. I'm 21 and I started the switch when I was 19.
