Acne medication effects? Tanning help also.?

[pimp]

My face where i put the acne med has made my face white while the rest of my body is tan. I have been at the beach for a little bit and it hasnt got any better to even my skin tone. So basically I look weird cuz my face is rele white while my body is tan. What should I do? Im at the beach for 10 more days so tanning help would be nice also.

my skin gets really clear after swimming a chlorinated pool..I also use Proactiv--but only at night it works so maybe stop using your medication

You are normally NOT supposed to tan while on acne medication. I recommend trying self tanner. I use Shesheido (sp) from department stores.

Might wanna check out this site (http://www.acnewarrior.com). They have good info on acne causes and stuff like that.
