A lot of us suffer through the rigors of acne through our teenage years as the hormones go crazy and all the fun changes happen in our bodies. The dermis gets oily and inflamed, erupting in those lovely zits all over our faces and other places, definitely cutting down on our already awkward senses of self. Puberty is so fun. Fortunately for most, this episode passes within a few years, leaving our skin smooth and healthy, if sometimes a bit scarred up from popping the zits. However, a lot of poor bastards, like Daniel Kern, have suffered repeatedly throughout their lives from flare-ups of adult acne despite our best efforts to control our greasy diets, wear clean clothes, scrub ritualistically etc.

Kern struggled for years with acne and finally decided that he had to win the war, no holds barred. He devoted enormous amounts of time energy, and money towards finding the solution to his malady. Upon discovering the answers for himself, he decided to share the experience with others without shame in the name of posterity.

His very comprehensive site includes a well-populated forum, tips, tricks, lists of mistakes and stumbling blocks, and even a photo gallery of images that you may not actually want to see, save but if your own misery loves company.
