I think this week has been a repeat of last week.
Skin not too good at the start of the week had about 3 spots pop up however better at the end.
It’s rather odd, it’s like it has a cycle or something, but each week fewer spots pop up in the outbursts.

This week has been lovely and warm :D I’ve tried to make sure i don’t get sunburn by wearing lots of sunscreen. However after being out in the sun for about an hour (my lunch break) i noticed that i was going slightly pink, (well my arms and legs were anyway) :S not good. So i have been quite dry and itchy this week due to the mild sunburn.
I was yet again surprised at the fact that my skin did not become oily at all in the week, with my skin standing temperatures at around 29 degrees celcius. Made me very happy.

Good news is, the sunburn has now turned into a lovely suntan, so it looks like i’ve been on holiday :D or that i’m italian as someone said to me this week :D Can’t complain:D

Had another two compliments on my skin this week, someone said my skin looked flawless and another person said that i looked beautiful with really fresh skin :D Made me very happy. The medicine must be doing something (Y) This treatment might actually be worthwhile afterall :D

The lips are now normal yayyy. That nipple cream has worked wonders. i only wish i knew about it earlier. Its so funny when i put it on at school, someone asked me what i was using and i said, “ermmmmmmmmm some lip stuff” and changed the subject. My bestfriend and i have a good laugh about it. It’s great :D

Had athletics this week in PE. Had to do long jump and the 800 metres. It was very painful. Yet again my teacher was pushing me to the limit, being an idiot. So from Tuesday onwards, i was hobbling around like i had broken my knees or something and had turned into a lobster. How attractive :P
Atleast i don’t look like that anymore :D

I believe i have my appointment with my Derm on Wednesday before the half term, when i’ll be going to Macon in France for the week. Should be interesting, both the appointment and the trip. I wonder what my derm will say or if she’ll raise my dosage? I know furrsure that i’m telling her about the wonders of nipple cream.. so i can spread my knowledge on the miracle cream and help others who are just starting out :D I can’t wait to see the derms face. Should be a laugh.

Yup errr thats it for this week me thinks :D
Not long to go wooooo
Talk to you next week from France :D If i can get their internet working.
But if not, i’ll post it when i get back :D
Auvoir! x

Hi I’m glad it’s going well for you! In public I now feel fairly confident in my skin, especially having recently been described as ‘plastic face’ which is as close to a complement on complexion as it possible to get at a boys school. However, on closer inspection the skin is a bit red and patchy especially in contrast to the skin around my face. Have you experienced this? tha.nk you very much hope the success continues

sorry i havn’t replied to this post sooner! i have only just realised it was there!
But the answer to your question is yes i have experienced patchyness…i believe it is called “Hyperpigmentation”, it gradually goes as time progresses, so don’t worry :P
Hope your treatment is going well :)
