to biotin, or to not biotin...
while i do realize biotin is not a verb, i couldnt think of a catchier subject title. I havent picked my face in about a month now, and seriously, not touching your face does wonders all by itself. BUT- i also recently started taking biotin in hopes of further strengthening my skin. well, i started breaking out around my jaw (i never break out there) and just couldnt figure out why... for some reason today, i linked the possibility of my biotin pills to the sudden breakout. im going to stop taking them and keep updating this forum every day. I spent a good couple of hours today reading people's reaction to taking biotin and 9 times out of 10, someone had a horrible break out- including those who had never had a break out in their lives..

ok so yesterday i did not take any biotin..so thats the first day of me off of it. no new breakouts as of yet. but, i did burn myself with tea tree oil. so thats fun. dont put too much on one spot multiple times. lesson learned. a lot of moisturizer will cure it though, ive burned myself once before with it. moisturizers and bandaids are a recovering dermamaniacs best friends.

2nd day of no biotin, and honestly the only issue im dealing with on my face is my burn from the tea tree oil.. i dont think it was just the tea tree oil that burned my skin, but a combo of 3% benzoyl AND tea tree. NEVER AGAIN. no new breakouts though.
