Hi Kate,
I hope you are doing well. I've been thinking of you and your family lots lately.
I also have skin issues like you. Mine are probably caused by hormones i'm guessing (i'm 15) though my Doctor did say the oral Ketamine I am on can cause skin problems also.
I use Liz Earle naturally active skin care. It's a really good moisturiser and helps rehydrate my skin and get rid of any acne I may have. I use it once a day mainly (it's recommended to use twice though) and you can definitiely tell when I haven't used it as my skin will go horrible!
I'm not sure if it's available in Australia though I do know they have a website and will ship over to other countries outside the UK/US if not. The product isn't expensive either - think it was £20 when I got it but it lasts months!
I hope you find something that works
!
Alison.
PS - I used to read your blog all the time and miss it. I'd be happy if you could PM me the details so I could access it! Thanks
