I forgot to mention that the rash-like thing that not so long ago developed on my neck, has now fully gone away.
Merely 2 months left...

I must admit, on applying the cream I do it quite vigorously.
Therefore throughout the remaining hours of the day,
it will look quite red and irritated, but next day when I
take it off and clean my face, it returns to it's more regular
state, per say. The redness on my cheeks does not fade in large portions,
instead it vaguely disbands, only perceivable to the eye when
the ointment has been washed off.
As of today, my skin is incomparable to what it once was, before I started
treating it with this ointment, mind you.
I am yet to be fully content with the looks and feels of my skin, but as the days pass
by, it will most likely keep on progressing into a better, more long-lasting state.
It has now at an exact amount been 90 days, and 60 days left there is.
Since I started of (45-60 first days) by only applying once each day, I would estimate myself to
be approximately 30 days behind schedule. And, that is very reason why I'm continuing further on,
and why further results not yet are at hand.
Just a reminder that: 1st of August is the end of the line for me (at least what I have in mind for the time being). I might proceed further on, depending on what my skin then will look like.
Before I started on this treatment, my skin would react strongly to the slightest contact (I would 100% of the time break out in SEVERE redness and such), be that
with facial cleansers, sunscreens, lotions, etc. But, it has now constructed itself a robust paling,
so to speak, against harsh chemicals, and so on.
My skins been feeling a tad rough today, but other than that it is still improving.
My skin still looks much better, but for the last few days it has been a bumpy ride.
Nose felt sensitive today, hence vague redness took place.
This is nothing severe, but I keep pondering on just how I'm supposed to get rid
of the blackheads on the side of my nose... is perchance steaming and follow by
squeezing a good idea? Months back, I bough a "blackhead extractor", thinking
it would at least ease my suffering, but I only ended up making matter worse
(my nose turned overly red, and gained NOTHING out of it).
Could blackheads cause acne? Maybe it's papules or pustules?
I find it quite hard to see the difference between those...
What would be my best shot, in terms of treatment?
cut, paste...repeat.

toothpicks for the eyes please.
gobutkus - Monotone, I am well aware of that. But on the other hand, I am simply trying to do this community a favor. Hope I did not give you some course of offense?
Anyone else witness the "Transit of Venus"? Very fascinating I must say. Though I only saw a tiny unclear speck, I was still amazed by it's appearance. Once in a lifetime...
Anyways: somewhere around day 60-70 of treatment, my skin ceased having those days when it looks decent or terrible. That for me is a huge relief, hence pastimes it was a constant thing, so to say "inevitable". I am confident that this ointment will give me a new chance... in other words, an overture of peace.
I am now spending my last remaining days watching "Lupin the III", lots of great japanese anime there is.

My second jar just ran out (I was not as thrifty this time around), but fear not... for I have two more standing available for my use.
As you might already have noticed, following this text there are a couple of photos (before and after - a month or so, before I started treating my skin with this ointment). I took the before-photos today.
I've had an especially hard time, going back and forth on whether I should include photos or not, because this is no easy matter for me, as you might understand simply by glancing over them... I know, I looked ATROCIOUS. Not only was my skin majorly deteriorated, but I had had an overabundance of dark coarse hair growing out of both my cheeks (which has now been zapped away with laser... well, for the most at least).
I am well aware of that I looked beyond DISGUSTING, so please don't unnecessarily remind me of it.
This stage in my life I did not where to turn, only slightly...
Keep in mind that I'm practically 65 days or so into this treatment (when you take into consideration that the first 60 days I was only applying once daily), so further results is still a possibility.
YOU MIGHT AS WHY MY SKIN WAS PEELING, WELL IT'S BECAUSE I WAS DOING SALICYLIC ACID PEELS (15%) AT THAT EXACT TIME. THIS DID NOT WORSEN THE REDNESS, IN FACT IT ACTUALLY SOOTHED IT. BUT, IT DID HOWEVER MAKE MY SKIN PEEL TO A GREAT EXTENT. THIS WAS ALSO ACTUALLY WHEN MY SKIN WAS AT IT'S BETTER PHASE, IT USED TO LOOK MUCH MUCH WORSE, MIND YOU.
My confidence has regained itself much since then...
I am VERY content with the changes so far.
