    Hello there gretandy, I hear your worries about having pimples. Yes I used to have spots on my face when I got here in UK and it lasted for a few months before I completely got rid of them. I tried different products but there wasn't great instead my spots were getting worst. But then I discovered Neutrogena facial wash and its really effective, I used it twice daily morning and before I went to bed. And I also used nivea visage face cream after washing my face. Im really pleased of that but Im not so sure of how it works to you considering that we have different types of skin.

    And another tips, minimise eating sweets especially chocolates instead tried to eat more fruits and vege because there really good for skin and plenty of water.
    There is always death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.

    My Wife had the same problem when she first moved over where her skin went into a mini shock at the change of the weather although she came in October last year.

    My Wife used her likas soap which we can get in local phill shops and she used E45 products at first, but also later garnier skin naturals face wash and pore purifying astringent afterwards. She also used e45 moisturer during the winter to combat her skin drying due to the difference in humidty and temperature. This also happened to an aunt who moved over in march/aprill this year but it soon settled down, with my Wife helping her out.

    Its worth all hubbys putting a bit of cash aside for a vist to boots and the body shop etc so your Wife can find the products that suit her best when she first comes over. I nearly fell over when we got to the till, but it was worth it for the comfort it brought my Wife has her skin improved. Nothing worse i would have thought for a woman than moving to a new country, culture and finally with herr Love and not feeling magenda.

    On the bright side my Wifes skin settled down after a months and looking oh so Magenda :-)

    Try to use anti-bacterial facial wash and be sure there's no alcohol content in the ingredients. Avoid eating greasy or fatty or oily foods and minimize eating junk foods. Eat loads of fruits and vegetable.Don't use facial scrub an use cold water (room teperature).Avoid applying make up while the pimple is not cleared off cause it clog the pores and make it worst.Drink plenty of water and get enough good night sleep.Avoid too much exposure to the sun.
    After washing your face especially in night time you can apply skin renewal serum, in day time apply moisturizer spf 30 for protection, and I think itsw better if you take a suppliments vitamin A,C,E or check any suppliments good for the skin.
    Regards,

    Likas Papaya? that's very effective and its a whitening soap at the same time. But of course it depends on her skin, maybe she will get allergies.

    Why you girls got skin problem when you arrived here.I arrived here long time ago without any skin problem.In my opinion the culprits is the changes of the food intake when you're here.Try to eat thesame food you eat in philippines. Cook your own as what you did in Philippines.Like me I cook our food separately cause my husband eat meat everyday. For me fish and vegs and rice. I eat meat once a week only. I don't drink coffee,tea or softdrink. In the morning I always make fruit juice , from fresh like oranges, pineapple, kiwi apple, carrot, pear and melon, one glass each and also a small slices of ripe papaya,pineapple and melon inthe morning. Try to eat a balance diet.
    Regards,

    Regularly scrub your face with Swarfega and a wire brush - that should do it.
