YES! 8th grade was the worst. All on my forehead..

Yes! I vividly remember my first gross zit--it was in 6th grade and I was mortified. I still have pretty bad skin. Thanks, genetics. I want a Clarisonic for Christmas!

Yes... ugh.. until I was 20ish. but I still get breakouts and redness.

Nope, I guess I lucked out! My older brother needed a prescription for his acne though, and he still has it in his late twenties!

Ugh! I started getting breakouts when I was in 6th grade. It has really only gotten worse as I've gotten older. I'm 27 now and still dealing with it.

No, I got lucky and always had pretty clear skin. I had the random zit here and there, but nothing too severe.

i didn't start breaking out until college. but even then i had pretty good skin. just luck i guess!

My skin was pretty clear all through high school and college. Once I went off birth control a few years ago, it all went downhill

Oh yes. It got better after high school, but I still get pimples all the time.

Oh geez... I hate my skin. I had it pretty bad beginning around 12, and it hit its peak of awfulness at around 16. My skin still sucks, but it's not anywhere near what it was. I'm just glad I'm a woman, and could always wear make up!

I got full-force cystic acne when I was 13. It was 8th grade so pretty much nobody had pubescent acne yet. I went on Accutane, which cleared it up for a few years and then I've had to go on cycles of stuff every few years until I decide I don't want to anymore, skin gets terrible, go back on stuff. 19 years of ridiculous acne is so tiring.
