Does anybody have self esteem issues, that suffers from acne or vitiligo.?!
Question: i have mild vitiligo, and a little acne. its hard to have skin issues, and everybody stares, and comments and stuff. and then you cover it up with your clothes and makeup and stuff. no one really understands unless they have the skin issues.
people with skin issues are often called mean names, and stuff.
mind you its clearing up, but vitilgo stays forever, a lot of scars and cuts stay forever, or for a while. its hard to deal with sometimes.
i have used proactive and it works somewhat well.

my aunt has severe vitiligo, and it is very evident on her face and hands. she told me once that when I was very little I used to go up to her and pet her hands and say "powder". lol. I've always admired her strength to be able to deal with such a noticeable skin disorder. Kids stare at her a lot. I think with something like that, you just have to grin and bear it. explain to people what it is. Don't be embarrassed about it, since its a part of who you are, and what makes you unique.
As far as acne goes, no need to be embarrassed either since everyone gets it. Personally I don't like proactive, but I use all natural products. My face wash is made with tea tree oil, which is GREAT for acne. If you can't find a face wash made with it, you can buy straight up tea tree oil. Get a q-tip wet and then put a little oil on it (its strong and needs to be diluted) and apply it right to the area. It works great- dries it right up. Careful though since it can be very drying.
