"i am now a senior in high school and have had mild to moderate acne since i have been 15 years old. my acne worsens during the fall and i visited my dermatologist fall of my sophomore year in high school. i was prescribed tretinoin cream .1%. it helped, but a lot of the time, my skin was just as oily. i fought with my acne until i decided to stop using acne medication all together. the summer before my senior year, my mom bought me coconut oil and i use it before i go to bed and every time i shower. i wash my face and then lather the oil on my face. i wash it off but it leaves a shiny coat on my skin. i have been using this method for about 2-4 months and my skin is far less red and i have very few breakouts."
