I have had acne since age 13. I am now 32 and have tried just about everything. The only thing I have not tried is Accutane because I already live with anxiety and depression and do not want to take anything that will mess with my mental balance. I've been to several different dermatologists, but I simply do not have the time or money to go weekly to get peels, masks, etc., or to pay for the multitude of prescriptions they want me to go on. I've also been there, done that with just about everything you can imagine that is over-the-counter (including Proactiv). Nothing has worked well enough to justify me continuing to use it.

I saw Curology through a sponsored post on Facebook, and since it offered a free trial, I figured it couldn't hurt to give it a shot. The website is really attractive and easy to use. It was basically the same old story; try it hoping for it to work, but fully expecting for it to do nothing.

When I began using it, my skin did get worse at first. So probably for the first two weeks or so, I was tempted to quit using it. However, the website had prepared me for the fact that this could happen (they call it purging), so I decided to keep trying. After the purging phase, my skin did begin to improve. I was only supposed to be using it once a day, but I decided to try doing it twice a day. At this point, I began moisturizing twice a day as well. So I'd put on my moisturizer, then apply Curology.

I am really impressed with Curology. I have been using it for almost three months, and I have seen a pretty noticeable improvement in my breakouts. It hasn't completely stopped my breakouts, but they are smaller and clear up more easily. I know you are not supposed to pick or squeeze pimples, but I think we all do. The major difference I notice now that I'm using Curology is that, when I squeeze a pimple, it clears out much more easily and fully, then begins healing right away. Previously, when I'd squeeze a pimple, the head would take forever to emerge, leaving the zit angry-looking and more noticeable than before, and then taking days and days to heal.

Even though I wouldn't say I have clear skin, it's absolutely much better since beginning Curology. I plan to continue and hope to see even more improvement.
