I've also heard good things about Pro-active, but I personally haven't used it myself.

I use a Neutrogena Acne Bar and Benzaclin. It works... if you use it continuosly. Pro-Activ doesn't work all the time. I used it.. for my moderate acne. And nah. Only for about a month. But if you follow the regimen on www.acne.org.. that works too. I did that for a while, I just got lazy with it. It works REALLY well. When I was on that I used the same kind of acne soap, Neutrogena spot treatment, and just some plain Jergans.
Hope I could help!

My step-daughter had bad acne during puberty. Pro-active worked amazingly well. However it required constant use. After her hormones stabilized several years later she no longer needed it. Although she is still prone to a zit or two during the time leading up to the beginning of her cycle. For those small breakouts she has switched to clearasil and is perfectly happy with the results. I will add that I thought the Pro-active was just a scam when we purchased it for her, but in her case I was definitely wrong. It really did wonders for her problem, with constant use of course.

i could tell you a product that is BEST in the WORLD, just for your knowledge. its at a website called, "www.melaluca.com" and its under "Zap-It" face wash system. You wont find anything else like it. Its a little expensive but TOTALLY worth it. I havent had a zit in three years--compared to used to have about a MILLION ON MY FACE. i now have NONE. good luck.

Mary Kay benzoyle its in a white tube called
acne treatment for $7
after you skin dries up. use a
oil free lotion. to keep your skin hydrated
always clean your face at night
and in the morning .
it takes about 2-3weeks
if you do it all.
and keep up on your skin
dont just use it and when your skin clears
stop keep using it or you'll be back in step 1

A doctor can give you a script for antibiotic cream which is the only thing that seems to zap neck and should acne.
