Online Forums

acne.org

Acne.org is a popular online resource dedicated to skin health education. Driven by science and free of unnecessary frills, its endless pages of content cover everything from acne myths to treatments to ingredients to avoid. But what's arguably the most impressive and useful on the site? It's active forum. There, you'll find hundreds of thousands of posts covering any acne-focussed topic you can imagine. Whether you're looking for relatable advice and answers to a seemingly-niche question, someone on there can probably steer you in the right direction.

Facebook Groups

The "Groups" feature on Facebook is a great way to find, build, and connect with communities outside of your immediate social network (no pun intended). With something for everyone and every topic — no matter how specific — it's no surprise that there are countless acne-focussed Facebook groups to join. The Love Your Skin group was created by the blogger behind Beautiful By Breakfast and this Cystic and Severe Acne Support group is perfect for those suffering with more specific, long-term issues.

Acne Subreddits

Much like Facebook groups, there's a subreddit for any and every topic on the planet; as weird or specific things get, it's probably been talked about somewhere on Reddit. For acne sufferers, a good place to start is the larger Acne subreddit. From there, you can browse through posts and tags, including success stories, rants, and more.
