I HAVE THE ANSWER TO ACNE!
I have a teen aged brother and me who have struggled with Acne for years...we tried many things, including Proactive and prescription medicines as well. Then, we found the solution.
Please don't shrug it off because this can help you a lot.
I was searching through the Internet and found www.acne.org. The site is owned by a guy named Dan. Dan, struggled with acne as well. He read medical books and tried many things on the market. Then, he found the way. BENZYL PEROXIDE! Now, I bet you have used it many times before but it hasn't done much right? Well, the reason is because everything on the market is 5% or 10% Benxyl Peroxide. These irritate your skin which causes MORE acne! (Touching it irritates it as well which causes more acne.) There is one thing on the market that has non irritating Benzyl Peroxide....2.5% Benzyl Peroxide. Netrogena on the Spot Acne Cream has 2.5. Nothing else on the market. You can get stuff on the Internet that have 2.5%! It is also on the site www.acne.org.
The regimen includes: First washing your face with a cleanser (suggested ones are on the site)
Then, drying and adding LARGE AMOUNTS or Benzyl Peroxide. In the beginning very little but you rank it up to 2 fingers after time.
Last, you moisturize, because the Benzyl Peroxide may dry up your skin. Suggested ones are on the website as well.
Go to www.acne.org and read about the clear skin regimen.
THIS MAN IS NOT TRYING TO MAKE MONEY...HE IS NOT SELLING ANYTHING!
He just wants to help. I have clear skin and so does Dan. There is also a forum where you can read more. The site teaches you how to pop a zit the right way and to find out other products that have work well.
I hope I Helped!
(My brother who is also a teen is clear as well. This regimen takes about 8 weeks to be completely clear but you will see gradually the acne go away. There is no cure for acne, so you have to do the regimen every day until acne goes away.)

Try Citephil ...I know I spelled it wrong. You may be causing more oil production than if you just chilled a little. Maybe the arm thing is due to soap or some chemical you might be spraying on yourself that is causing a reaction.
I got some bumps on my back and couldn't figure out how they got there. After I thought about it, I sprayed on a hair SPF protector for the first time and it went on my back too. It lasted for about a week and a half. Now it is gone.

I use to get a lot of breakouts, but ever since I tried Neutrogena Advanced Solutions my face has never been smoother. The first several days I didn't see any results and I thought this was never going to work, but after a few more several days I was surprised to see that my face was free of acne. It dosen't smell bad like the other products I tried, and its nice and smooth.

Washing your face with just water isnt going to do the trick. Its possible that your not exfoliating enough. I recommend oil of olay exfoliating face cloths.

go to a dermatologists.
maybe the acne products you used does not suit you.
and other stuffs like lemon maybe irritated your skin more.

You need to do see a dermatologist and see what products are best for you. One thing i can say is that you shouldn't switch products all the time becuase then it can confuse your skin. you need to give your skin a chance to react to what your putting on it. but you should see someone because you need to possibly geta perscription.

Go to your doctor and he can prescribe some medicine for you. I can't remember the name of it but my sister took something several years ago and it worked like magic! Just so you'll know in advance---it is a huge pill.

I bought Proactiv for my boyfriend, who has severe acne problems, and it is working just fine.
