Is there a tactful way to share some information about a acne product?

I used to suffer from cystic acne. However I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed some topical cream called differin. The medicine did wonders for my skin. I also have a neighbor who’s son used it and he had a different type of acne (teenager) and it cleared his skin up completely. This is my question, a co-worker has really bad acne and so does my hairdresser. I would love to suggest this product for them under their dr’s advice of course but if it doesn’t come up in conversation, is there a tactful way to suggest it or just leave it alone?

  1. Well.. thats what friends do, they give advice and share advice… If you know something is good.. you should tell.
    I would want you to tell me if i needed it.

    Just ask them if they are currently using something, maybe they can recommend to you.. then bring up that you are using differin and you really like it so far.

    Well, first, I think you should bring up a conversation about skin (not necessarily acne). Then, after a minute, mention that you used to suffer from acne, without appearing to be suggesting anything. Then, if they are comfortable with the conversation, they will ask you how to get rid of it. If not, then you should mention it, and tell them that it’s pretty easy to get rid of if they want to. Letting them know that you suffered from acne beforehand is key though. Good luck!

    “Randomly” bring older and newer photos of you to show them. Compare the two (clothes, hair styles, etc) and mention your acne. You could also then mention you saw a dermatologist to prescribe medication. You’ll have the photos as great examples of before and after, and you won’t seem pushy. Good luck to you!

  4. That is a dilemma! You want to help them, but you don’t want to insult them either.

    I would type up an anonymous note telling of your experience with acne and how you cleared it up. You might want to make it clear that you sympathize with them and by no means are doing this as a cruelty. Then mail them each a copy. If they are wise they will check into your advice. But never reveal that you were the one who sent the note.

    If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
    For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.

    Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
    Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:
