Just don't expect your skin to clear up 100% depending on your definition of clearing up. I remember back before I started eating 95%+ raw I could run my fingers around my neck and feel all bumps, now it's all smooth. I also have much smoother skin, I don't have to worry about shaving half as much, it's awesome.

Your skin may not clear up a hundred percent though partly because of previous abuses that have unfortunately taken a permanent toll and as well because maybe a slight small bit of red here and there is actually a natural thing.

It's too general to say that acne is so bad, acne is a natural bodily response so don't be cruel to it. Just like we're taught sugar is bad, but a little sugar is good! Acne only looks bad when it's out of control, but if your skin is perfectly smooth, a little bit of a red spot is natural and the sign of a healthy person and really healthy skin. It's like how they say fat is bad... but that doesn't mean the thinner the better.

It's too quick to say "acne is bad". If you show a hispanic or someone else who had no acne and a raw caucasian who has a tiny bit of acne, I would defy you to say the hispanic skin looked better or healthier... no, acne is a natural response and it's only the bad foods that make such a mockery out of it.

SuperInfinity,

Acne is natural, but it isn't normal; that is, it is a sign of problems with the acid mantle, with fungal levels in the bloodstream, with sebum overproduction or deficiency, or detoxification, but it is never considered "healthy." Truly healthy skin is generally unblemished, though no one's complexion is without some sun or age damage, certainly.
