I hate that I spend hours in front of the bathroom scrutinizing my face, and hating my skin. Fixing my hair. Why do I look better without my glasses. Its like all my skin problems are gone when I take off my glasses. I feel prettier. I feel frustrated and angry that my skin hasn't cleared up and its been 4 years.

How old are you?

You might want to try zinc gluconate supplements for two weeks, Take a 22mg tablet three times a day. After two weeks, add a second tablet each time for two more weeks. Then assess the situation. Of course, cool it on the sugary and salty snacks. You can also add 5,000 IUs of vitamin D gel capsules. My son did this with good result. (I sound like an ad... )

Zinc gluconate is known to be missing in acne sufferers' diets, and vitamin D is for the skin.

I totally agree with wondergirl... also try to get contacts... if you think you look better without glasses just plop in some contacts... they are like 20 bucks if you know what type your eyes are.. go to a eye glasses store and tell them what kind of glasses you got and they will set you up with the right type... also I'm 18 myself... and honestly you probably still look beautiful wit glasses on... I'm the same way myself but you see everyone looks at themselves and sees little details nobody else sees... trust me I see black heads all over my face and even my mom tells me she can't see them.. and she ain't afraid to tell me lol
