I really like the idea of Curology, but I’ll be honest it took me a looooong time to figure out how it ACTUALLY works. Everyone thinks it’s some magic cream that will suddenly fix your skin. Now, that might work in some cases. For people with imbalanced facial bacteria or those who have topical fungal infections of the skin the cream is probably the secret sauce for you. However, the reason Curology works is because it is supposed to make you take a hard look at yourself and realize what is truly causing your acne. My prescription was a nice mix that definitely assisted in the healing of my scars but what stopped my breakouts is my diet change and reducing the amount of treatments that I made my face suffer through. My acne was all closed comedomes which are the result of your skin improperly handling bacteria within the pores. It’s not something that some cream will magically make go away. I had an excess amount of androgens in my body so I needed to increase my vitamin A, B5, and Zinc. It almost seemed that the MOMENT I started taking those vitamins I stopped breaking out. The Curology cream is now able to really do its job and heal my scars. Eventually I will be able to stop using it but the lessons I learned while using Curology are the real value. If you are looking for a fix, go somewhere else. If you are looking for the real solution, Curology is for you. I see a lot of reviews where these girls are just using up all the cream in a week or two like it’s supposed to magically fix their skin. Nope, doesn’t work that way sorry. Healing takes time and information that is unique to you.
