Answer #1

Well, I’m pretty lucky. I’ll be 17 soon and never realy have had bad acne problems, but I DO get zits and stuff sometimes. This is my advice to you - First, ignore people who tell you “don’t put a zit”… you CAN pop your zits. I always pop mine when I get them and I don’t have ANY scars at all, so no worries there. The thing is, once you pop it and the stuff comes out, leave it go. Check the following day and if there’s still stuff, pop again. As for stuff to use on your face… I use Noxzema and Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub. Right on the Blackhead stuff’s bottle it says “Gently exfoliates to lift away dirt and oil”. They are both cheap… here in Ohio the taxes is 7%… and you can get them BOTH for only $10-$12 WITH taxes. Use one… then a few hours later use the other. Don’t use them directly after eachother to avoid causing any skin irratations. Then after I’ve used both of those, I use Curel Continuous Comfort 24-Hour Daily Moisturizing Lotion… Original Formula. That helps to keep your skin from getting dry. It’s not just for your face, you can use it on your legs/feet/hands/anywhere you have dry skin. That’s also not high in price. With all 3 products, I’d say it’d only be about $15 or something like that. Not bad really.

Answer #2

If your acne is pretty bad I would recommend going to the dermatologist and getting some Acutane. It clears you up from the inside out. On a personal note, I’m 27 and my skin hasn’t been clear since I was 12. I’ve reached the point where I don’t care anymore, but when I want to look nice I have some great make-up. I mix together a little bit of Vital Radiance Smoothing Face Primer and Vital Radiance Line Softening Makeup and a small amount of facial lotion (to help it spread), and cover my entire face, not too much though. Then I go through with any touchup with the Vital Radiance HydraSmooth Concealer which usually I don’t need to. Lastly I powder my entire face with L’oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Makeup. Believe me, it will make your face look flawless.
