Answer #1

Honest to god, no one on here can tell you exactly what will work for you and what won’t. It all depends on what kind of acne you’re experiencing.

I had some pretty annoying blemishes when I was in high school that were controlled with Retin-A but then I got older and that dried my skin.

Start out with a cleansing regimen that makes a dent in the problem and then move on to different medications to see how they work. I know you want this fixed now but the more you learn your skin the better.

I currently am absolutely in love with Neutrogena’s pink grapefruit cleansers, Clinique Acne Solutions system, Murad Acne cleanser, and current fav is Ain’t Misbehavin by

I was twice a day and follow with moisturizer (either the dramatically different moisturizer from Clinique, the Acne solutions moisturizer from clinique, or the acne solution moisturizer from Murad). I currently use some basic moisture under my eyes to keep aging from happening.

Then, once a day, I use 2.5 % Benzoyl Peroxide all over my face (yes, 2.5% rather than 10%. . .10% will dry you insanely), and once a day I use differin (prescription) all over my face.

Also, if you wear make-up, avoid any oil added. Clean all of your brushes or use sponges to apply and replace them often.

If you have such a problem that you feel you need more help, go see a dermatologist to see if they can lead you in the right direction. You don’t need to go to extremes to fix this even if it feels like you do.

Vitamin E oil and the pills are good. agree don’t over wash

Answer #3

I would try to be careful on how much you wash your face since if you wash your face too much, it dries out the skin. Only try to wash your face at least once in the morning. If you’re still getting break outs, I’d see your dermotologist to clear that up. As a teenager, I had really bad acney to where I had to use soap and water to wash my face. My mother thought my break outs were from eating too much chocolate or greasy foods. It all depends on how bad your acney is, but, if you find some kind of cleanser to use, you should be okay. If not, then I would recomend seeing your dermotologist. I use Olay face Moisturizer, and cleanser and they work wonders for my face. You could just be going through puberty or Hormonal changes. Good luck and hope you take our advice.

Answer #7

Make-up clogs pores,dont use to much, Im a teenager and we all have it, most just deal with it. Ummm Washing your face alll the time. does nothing more then just washing it once a day.

achutain is an amazing pill,though you have to do certain stuff to be able to take it which is kinda annoying but it works wonders. but remember honey,everyone is differnt. nobody has the same kind of skin. =]

ANYBODY NEED ADVICE??? SEND ME FUN MAIL..I ANSWER EVERY QUESTION SENT TOO ME =] HAVE A HAPPY DAY!

Answer #8

Skin ID actually works the best. If you want to try that, I use it it’s the only thing that has worked. I tried proactive, off the shelf products, everything. Skin ID works, plus washing your face will only irritate it and cause more breakouts.

Mainly it’s just hormones, you can’t really prevent them. I know that for a fact, I still get them and use a daily routine of skin care. I’m not stressed and I eat healthy.

You can’t really prevent puberty.

Answer #9

ok first of all, stop washing your face so much! ahh! only once in the morning and once at night. if you over wash then the natural oils on your skin get washed away too, then your body thinks it needs to do double time, making more oil then is healthy. so twice a day should do it. and it’ll go away eventually. just stay calm, have fun and stuff. if your really that concerned about it, buy some cover up, thats what I do. good luck! - luv nina
