Getting off dairy and processed carbs is my number one tip. Coming from someone who suffered from a lot of acne and inflammation. I know this helped many others too
how do you recommend i do that? i’m a teenager, i live with my family and they LOVE dairy. i’m supposed to have two glasses of milk a day. dairy free alternatives are too expensive. it’s also hard to avoid it when it’s in a lot of the family meals and my parents get mad if i cook something else. idk what to do
@@MelvinElian lots of unprocessed, whole natural foods. I make a lot of dishes containing beans, lentils and different vegetables. Take for example a chili sin carne with brown rice and I get really full and get lots of nutrients. I never count calories since the body will feel satisfied when eating right and never any need to diet. I stay at my ideal weight by eating as much as I want but eating healthy and staying away from processed carbs and added fats. There is a common myth about younger people needing milk or whatever but I wish I stopped drinking it sooner, it contains a lot of hormones since it is, well, made for baby cows. Replace animal products with plant foods and you will notice a difference, since plant foods contain more all around nutrients!
might be a stupid question but have you tried cutting out foods to see if it helps with acne? Reducing or completely cutting out dairy and gluten is what fixes my breakouts in 2 weeks usually
@@buhbools133 yeah sweets are bad, i can feel my skin drying out few hours after a binge and usually get breakouts the day after too. What are plant based chocs/lollies though, isnt it all just sugar anyway?
@@fr0sbitEDIT so glad those cystic, bad break outs are over😩🙏 plant based lollies don’t contain gelatin and the sugar levels aren’t as bad, I don’t really have them anyways, once in a while.

Difficult transition but I def feel better inside and out🙂
@@buhbools133 i transitioned into plant based diet too about 4 years ago and havent looked back since, took some getting used to but as you know its def worth it and yeah, the shit they put into everything is ridiculous.

Exactly my thoughts when she started having acne... I may be biased but since I became vegan my breakouts are way less frequent, no more acne and I have a pimple every now and then
I’ve heard lots of people say this. The most rapid skin clearing processes only happen without dairy. Pair it with medication and your skin is clear as day within a few months
I'm using accutane for some weeks now. It usually gets worse on the first few weeks and then improves considerably. Which I can firmly say it's true. Hope you get well soon! 🙏
Girl I FEEL you. I had cystic acne breakouts all of a sudden in 2019. Tried everything from supplements, expensive dermo appointments/treatments, extreme diet changes. For me, I had endometriosis and gut issues. I would highly recommend going to a gynecologist just to get the all clear about your hormone levels and trying to take probiotics.
I had cystic acne that looked just like this and after years I realized I was taking WAY too much vitamin b12 because it’s in supplements, non-dairy milks, sports drinks, and some nutrition/protein shakes. Be mindful or your intake. It’s been shown to cause acne in some people.
Try to minimize dairy, sugar and simple carbohydrates (e.g. wheat). Diet changes do not always work and are not scientifically proven to cure acne breakouts, however it can help. Minimizing stress is another factor to be considered. For actual medical treatments look into topical creams that contain Benzol peroxide and/or Retinoids (You can research on your own, however please do talk to your dermatologist about the products you are going to use!). AHA and BHA are an alternative but as said before, discuss these with your doctor. For general facial hygiene minimize soap and just use a gentle cleanser for your face and gently dry your face with a separate towel. Perfume free moisturizers can also be used, if your face tends to get dry. As soon as acne tends to get cystic I would lay off the common advice of using just using some different kind of product from some cosmetic store and actually stick to the products with factual medical literature backing them up. Stick to these for some weeks and you should notice improvement. Be consistent and be patient. I know the struggle but you got this. All the best!
Girrrrl lmfao! 😂 The cystic acne needs to take a hike! But I speak for everyone when I say we all love you and your content - acne or not! 💕 Oh, and Tyler too of course!
Didn't deal with acne at all until about the age of 27. I think there are some women who get a similar blow and never ever pick at cystic acne it gives pit scars... Not a white head pimple from what I understand it's a hormonal thing. Maybe a follicular confliction and just taking quick fix pills hardly work. It is about managing hormones and the foods we eat and how we deal with stress 😬 is everything. I'm still adjusting to it all. Good luck and yes you are beautiful 🦋❤️
I haven't had acne in 30yrs since 13yrs old. I'm 39 and skin went from AMAZING to cystic acne Out of nowhere and to say I'm pissed is an understatement
Hi. I had horrible cystic acne, and I remember randomly getting recommended new things to try and just getting frustrated, so I am sorry I am going to do that to you. I started healing my acne by getting acne facials and monthly extractions from an acne facial specialist. It has changed my life. (I go to facials by Bonnie in NYC :)
I noticed when I was eating nothing but vegetables like literally nothing but vegetables 😅 I completely cleared up my skin. It was hard to do but my skin has never glowed like that. I’m currently back to breaking out though cause you know cheesecake and chocolate… gotta have it
Drinking alcohol can cause skin issues, too. Perhaps consider quitting that as well as trying an organic plant based life style. I noticed many benefits doing that for myself :)
(I wrote this comment too in one of your videos) but I’ll write about my experience with cystic acne too in case it can help some people. I basically struggled with acne on and off since I got my period 10 years ago, it started to get worse when I was 13-14 but it wasn’t that bad and I didn’t even had scarring just a lot of hormonal breakouts on my chin and forehead, 2021 and it got out of control once I turned 18 I tried to change my diet a million times, different supplements, but I was still breaking out. Then suddenly I thanks to my skincare routine my skin started to get better and I was acne free for almost a whole year until I started to bulk and eat a lot calories. I tried to check my diet, try to see what was the issue, if it was too much protein, I changed my diet a million times, I don’t even drink milk cause I’m vegan. I started to eat low carb cause I found out I had pcos, never worked for me. I believe you don’t have to cut carbs out of your diet because brown rice, beans, legumes, veggies, sweet potato, quinoa etc it’s healthy but I personally avoid fruits and refined sugar because they trigger my insulin release and I notice I breakout. I started to take isotretinoin and also a DIM supplement and trying to manage my stress and my cystic acne is gone. I still need to be 3 months more but If you’re to desperate and you feel insecure and depressed I recommend it
You can start by cutting dairy, fatty meats, high processed foods and saturated fats... This will be a huge help for your overall health and of course acne.
Rebecca had an eating disorder and I have one too. These kind of things might seem helpful but really she found food freedom and she is my ROLE MODEL!! ✨ So for some people that might be okay, but for someone with an ED or who recovered from an ED a comment like this might be triggering
@@laurahaskin9453 who says I never had one ? everything might be triggering now a days on the internet, people have to take it with a pinch of salt. And she did speak about one similar comment on one of her videos and didn't seem offended at all, and found it helpful. Very glad she had found comfort in food, but if that "comfort" can be harming you, better consider some changes in your diet. Cause inflammatory foods are associated with acne.
As someone who dealt with this kinda stuff and had friends who did dairy is such a big inflammatory. Everyone is different but thought I’d put it out there!
Hello!!! Love the videos!! Also, I just wanted to recommend Avene a brand that really change my skin so maybe you can give it a try! :) I use the soap bar at nights and the soap gel in the morning and it really helps! you can ask your dermatologist or you can try it and see :D Again, thanks for the amazing videos!
85% or higher is the dark chocolate that is supposed to be good for you. The chocolate you are eating is far less and has a bunch of fillers and junk in the unwanted trunk if you read the ingredients. This is one of the acne contributors. Hope this helps.
CBS News 2 days ago: “Long viewed as healthier than other sweet treats, some brands of dark chocolate contain potentially dangerous amounts of heavy metals, according to research released on Thursday by Consumer Reports. Scientists at the nonprofit advocacy organization recently measured the amount of heavy metals in 28 popular brands of dark chocolate bars and found cadmium and lead in all of them. For 23 of the bars, consuming just an ounce a day would put an adult over a level for at least one of the metals that could be harmful, CR said. Five of the bars were above those levels for both cadmium and lead. Long-term exposure to even small amounts of heavy metals can lead to a slew of health issues, including developmental problems and brain development in young children, experts say.”
@@badkarma11b yep, I saw a similar report the other day. And fish have mercury and all plastic is toxic, and all metals are bad, and per the p65 warning pretty much everything is known to the state of California to cause harm and birth defects. However, it still doesn't change the fact that the chocolate Rebecca was eating in this video is bad and contributing to her acne problem, right? If you look on the ingredients list and product info you'll find not only is that chocolate bad to consume it also has the very chocolate you cite to be harmful.
Tbh having acne is very embarassing 😅 i mean okay i can motivate my friends by saying "yea chill its okay to have acne and its normal , its not a big deal and etc etc "but when i see myself in the mirror ughhh..! After having a acne on my face I can't even look myself in the mirror it always make my confidence level so downnn just one question "I've done everything possible thingggsss, every diet to heal my skin but whyyy whyyyy its not going ... 😢"
Use benzoyl peroxide containing face wash for acne and glycolic acid creams like glyco 6 for dark spots. And change your diet plan it must include green leafy vegetables and avoid white bread and high sugar containing products like pancakes,cold drinks..etc. Acne one of the most common skin disorders, peaks in adolescence and early adulthood, affecting around 85% of people between the ages of 12 and 24. We all go through this phase of time and your skin condition is going better if you follow this things in your daily routine.
So, a quick tip that i guarantee will work. DONT EAT CARBS, go on keto if you can. GOOD KETO tho (great quality meat, mostly beef, avocados, eggs, lots of eggs, grassfed butter, olive oil, green salads with cruciferous veggies.... - yummy). Healthy food, high fat, moderate protein, very low carbs. Your acne will be gone in a month. I swear by this.
Cut dairy, gluten, all fried foods, and any with cocoa powder (yes even dark chocolate 😭) and consume minimal to no alcohol. Basically, you won’t be able to enjoy life, but at least you’ll have clear skin.
Cheese 🧀 and oils and bread don't eat them, that will clear skin and eat veggies like kale, collards,lettuce. Chocolate makes you break out, so will peppers I used have terrible cystic acne
Ask your Dr about spironolactone. This has been the only effective treatment for me. I went through it all. Change of diet, accutane, prescription creams, birth control, etc.. I hope this helps.
when i look at the acne on my face, i feel like a witch to be burned but looking at you, it doesn’t take away from your beauty at all. literal example of we are not ugly, but born into a judgmental society. bc i judge myself harshly all the time, it literally impacts how i see. or maybe ur just so gorgeous you can pull off cystic acne and i don’t have the looks to make up for it 😂
I love your videos! I used to have a major acne issue, with a huge chunk of it being of the cystic variety. I also had a lot of dead skin and oil build up because I did not know the difference between 'dry' and 'dehydrated' (I saw flakes and assumed I had dry skin when I actually had oily and dehydrated skin). La Roche Posay's Effaclar line really helped to break through the dead skin, while Avene's Cleanance line really minimized the acne. HOWEVER, the one thing I did not count on but made a huge difference: candy. In particular, gummies. Not sure what it is, but when I eat them, I can break out badly. (**this strangely also applies to gummy vitamins). I've since cut it out and my skin has been looking so much better in the last few years. For the most part I've even been able to switch ti cheaper skin care. I don't know if any of this helps you or anyone reading this, but I wanted to share just in case.
oh… i LOVE gummies and ate more than usual recently… and got cystic acne for the first time ever. i’ve had one or two pimples like that before, and i’ve always had whiteheads all over but for four days in a row now i’ve gotten a new one on my forehead every day. maybe it’s my gummy melatonin 🥲 although i keep forgetting to take it. i also randomly forget to take my ADHD meds so maybe that throws me out of balance idk
They don’t want you to know it’s not acne, technically, it’s your body reacting to modern toxins that it can’t break down OR process, meat and vegetables are a good step, if you must have a snack, cucumber slices with an olive oil based dressing, zero sugar, zero dairy, yes you are beautiful
I'm with PROBIOTICS YES!!!! I got rid of a mess of pimples just by using something topical to exfoliate my skin It took over night to see they were leaving So I kept it up and they were gone in Approx a week
What medicine did they prescribe? I have adult acne. Got it at age 20. It’s been 6 years and still suffering from it. I got prescribed doxycycline from derm and worked like a dream! My skin was finally clear, like crystal clear! But after 6 month it came back, now I’m on Accutane….
hey rebecca do you think it could be because you need the cleanser or light soap solution to remove the sebum excreted from the skin for frequently? and maybe it could be the pillow cover being dirty and when you sleep with you cheek against the pillow that that could make the pimples!
I have similar skin-cystic acne I had laser surgery for as a teenager (spoiler it didn’t work) I’m in my 30s and sad to tell you I cleared it up completely by eliminating gluten, dairy and sugar. These foods are inflammatory and inflammation in my body occurs on my skin ie: multiple huge and painful cystic zits all over my face. The good news is you can live without foods containing dairy, gluten and sugar, but it’s basically a half life without joy. Your videos are the only thing that bring me a spark of happiness now❤
Had acne back in freshman yr of College.. was really conscious abt it.. took around 3-5 months of dermatology visits and it cleared out.. trust your doctor.. they know their shit 🤘🏽

Tbh having acne is very embarassing 😅 i mean okay i can motivate my friends by saying "yea chill its okay to have acne and its normal , its not a big deal and etc etc "but when i see myself in the mirror ughhh..! After having a acne on my face I can't even look myself in the mirror it always make my confidence level so downnn just one question "I've done everything possible thingggsss, every diet to heal my skin but whyyy whyyyy its not going ... 😢"
Yesss!!! We love you!!
🤩 gorgeous woman 10 out of 10. I swear.
have you tried intermittent fasting, great for balancing hormones
Just skip carbs all together, that means all plants except fruit when you feel you need something sweet.
Use benzoyl peroxide containing face wash for acne and glycolic acid creams like glyco 6 for dark spots.
And change your diet plan it must include green leafy vegetables and avoid white bread and high sugar containing products like pancakes,cold drinks..etc.
Acne one of the most common skin disorders, peaks in adolescence and early adulthood, affecting around 85% of people between the ages of 12 and 24.
We all go through this phase of time and your skin condition is going better if you follow this things in your daily routine.
It’s that chocolate and beef or pork you’re eating. I stopped eating it and it worked for me
So, a quick tip that i guarantee will work. DONT EAT CARBS, go on keto if you can. GOOD KETO tho (great quality meat, mostly beef, avocados, eggs, lots of eggs, grassfed butter, olive oil, green salads with cruciferous veggies.... - yummy). Healthy food, high fat, moderate protein, very low carbs. Your acne will be gone in a month. I swear by this.
Cutting dairy is the way to go with Cystic acne.
Honestly I love cheese ; but it doesn’t love me back.
There is one thing rarely taken under consideration: not celiac gluten sensitivity illness. Take all gluten out
Cut dairy, gluten, all fried foods, and any with cocoa powder (yes even dark chocolate 😭) and consume minimal to no alcohol. Basically, you won’t be able to enjoy life, but at least you’ll have clear skin.
What do you eat and drink healthy gut is the key how much sleep do you get.
I had really bad acne till i cut out heavily processed foods by 50%
Do you take chia and flax seeds for ur cystic acne?😢
Place in geekster era from 2001 all pimple people
Try carnivore diet
Cheese 🧀 and oils and bread don't eat them, that will clear skin and eat veggies like kale, collards,lettuce.
Chocolate makes you break out, so will peppers I used have terrible cystic acne
In this phase nothing works 😢
Bet it was curology
Hello I'm GORGEOUS
Carnevol diet :p
Ask your Dr about spironolactone. This has been the only effective treatment for me. I went through it all. Change of diet, accutane, prescription creams, birth control, etc.. I hope this helps.
it's the stress girl
Stop dairy?
when i look at the acne on my face, i feel like a witch to be burned but looking at you, it doesn’t take away from your beauty at all. literal example of we are not ugly, but born into a judgmental society. bc i judge myself harshly all the time, it literally impacts how i see. or maybe ur just so gorgeous you can pull off cystic acne and i don’t have the looks to make up for it 😂
she cute asf.
I love your videos!
I used to have a major acne issue, with a huge chunk of it being of the cystic variety. I also had a lot of dead skin and oil build up because I did not know the difference between 'dry' and 'dehydrated' (I saw flakes and assumed I had dry skin when I actually had oily and dehydrated skin).
La Roche Posay's Effaclar line really helped to break through the dead skin, while Avene's Cleanance line really minimized the acne.
HOWEVER, the one thing I did not count on but made a huge difference: candy. In particular, gummies. Not sure what it is, but when I eat them, I can break out badly. (**this strangely also applies to gummy vitamins). I've since cut it out and my skin has been looking so much better in the last few years. For the most part I've even been able to switch ti cheaper skin care.
I don't know if any of this helps you or anyone reading this, but I wanted to share just in case.
oh… i LOVE gummies and ate more than usual recently… and got cystic acne for the first time ever. i’ve had one or two pimples like that before, and i’ve always had whiteheads all over but for four days in a row now i’ve gotten a new one on my forehead every day. maybe it’s my gummy melatonin 🥲 although i keep forgetting to take it. i also randomly forget to take my ADHD meds so maybe that throws me out of balance idk
Dark chocolate (no dairy) makes me breakout like crazy 😢
They don’t want you to know it’s not acne, technically, it’s your body reacting to modern toxins that it can’t break down OR process, meat and vegetables are a good step, if you must have a snack, cucumber slices with an olive oil based dressing, zero sugar, zero dairy, yes you are beautiful
Carnivore diet ez fix
I'm with PROBIOTICS YES!!!! I got rid of a mess of pimples just by using something topical to exfoliate my skin It took over night to see they were leaving So I kept it up and they were gone in Approx a week
What medicine did they prescribe? I have adult acne. Got it at age 20. It’s been 6 years and still suffering from it. I got prescribed doxycycline from derm and worked like a dream! My skin was finally clear, like crystal clear! But after 6 month it came back, now I’m on Accutane….
Look into "The Clear Skin Diet" by Nina and Randa. Thanks for still posting!
only she can make acne look stunning
Start by cutting dairy, fatty meats, high processed foods and saturated fats...
hey rebecca do you think it could be because you need the cleanser or light soap solution to remove the sebum excreted from the skin for frequently? and maybe it could be the pillow cover being dirty and when you sleep with you cheek against the pillow that that could make the pimples!
Potato skins are good for the skin. I used a witch hazel cleanser i got from an Avon seller.... Best ever, it was exfoliating and really good stuff.
Be careful this can lead to orthorexia unfortunaly❤️
I have similar skin-cystic acne I had laser surgery for as a teenager (spoiler it didn’t work) I’m in my 30s and sad to tell you I cleared it up completely by eliminating gluten, dairy and sugar. These foods are inflammatory and inflammation in my body occurs on my skin ie: multiple huge and painful cystic zits all over my face. The good news is you can live without foods containing dairy, gluten and sugar, but it’s basically a half life without joy. Your videos are the only thing that bring me a spark of happiness now❤
Had acne back in freshman yr of College.. was really conscious abt it.. took around 3-5 months of dermatology visits and it cleared out.. trust your doctor.. they know their shit 🤘🏽
LMFAOOOO
