Acne is not really my problem when it comes to my skin (face) problems.
I have eczema and I have small patches on my face. I use the aveeno clear complexion foam. Then I was not exfoliating, so i either mix that with a scrub now or baking soda. It is getting better now, the dry patches are not peeling anymore but they are still dark. And my overall skin just looks like it needs a boost. My friend told me before all I needed was a good moisturizer, I am not sure if that is my only problem. I use aloe vera gel mixed with vaseline (I know not glamorous at all :drunk:)
Any suggestions on what can help me.

Also I started to notice big pores. Suggestions on this too?

I am going to get a facial next week (spa week/month) but can't afford to make that routine.

TIA

I second these products. Glycolic acid and occasional use of salicylic acid does wonders for my skin.

Try Oil of Olay BHA Daily Renewal Cream. It's really great :yep: and will improve your skiin. You can find it in most CVS/Rite Aid stores.
