Answer #1

Don’t use anything else until your skin has a chance to recover and heal. More than likely you r using too much. The majority of these facial products have alcohol in the-used to dry out the skin (a LITTLE) which dries up oil as well which normally helps with reducing pimples. When your face is back to normal then start again and only use 1 product once a day. If once a day doesn’t dry you out too much (where you can notice the dryness is too much) then you can try using it twice a day…same thing if too much dryness then cut back to once a day. You may have to try several different products until you find one you like that is not too drying AND is effective in ridding you of pimples! Good luck. Btw have you tried the Clearasil daily facial wash you use in the shower?? If it seems to help you can use it at night. Its not as drying as a lot of those creams and lotions out there. {

Answer #2

Take a break from using so many Creams & Cleanser. I’m guessing your using to much, and causing them to iritate your skin.

Try only using 1 or 2. every night. :D
