Does any one know a good face wash to get rid of acne!?

Question

i have horable acne and nothing seems to work!

Answer 1

I find face washes irritate the skin. I use clearasil Acne treatment cream with skin conditioners. http://www.medshopexpress.com/937551.html I put it on at nighttime and by morning the pimples have cleared up!
If you really want to use a face wash, neutogena 2in 1 facial mask and cleanser does work the best out of all of them.

Answer 2

Here are some good creams to use:

DDF BP Gel (With Tree Tea Oil)
Johnson And Johnson Persa Gel
Clinique Acne Solutions: Emergency Gel Solution
Biore Blemish Double Agent Treatment
Herbal Acne Cream

Answer 3

OK lets be real, acne's a b**** and it's the worst thing to get over but its not impossible. The best thing out there for it right now is Acutane, but, it is not for everyone that's why it is only obtained by a Dr's prespription. Some people tend to be allergic to the medicine, for a few percentage it does not work for, but usually it does, for everyone, even though after you stop using it the acne comes back, like with every other medicine after the treatment is over. It is really harsh on your body though, for women they can't take contraceptives or have kids due to some serious problems that can occur while taking it, other people experience horrible peeling and dryness.

Apart from all this, i used to have acne, apparently not bad enough for Acutane (according to my dermatologist) but it was still bad (at least i thought it was), so i was recommended this over the counter medicine called "Nature's Cure". They have two medicines, one formulated for men, and another for women, and among these they have the topical creams and face washes as well as pills that work from the inside out. I personally tried the cream and face wash. Since i started using it i have yet gotten another pimple, seriously, my face is progressing miraculously, alot of the blemishes are gone, almost all. Smooth skin, it does dry it a little bit but barely, everyone's complimented on it. A few more weeks and my face will be completely clear. To help with this i also get facials done, everyonce in a while to help with the deep cleaning, which helps alot to remove stubborn clogs and blackheads and so forth.

I know not all of these over the counter medicines work for everyone, like myself that i've tried Proactive and Murad and all those things and i actually got my face worse due to them. But this one worked, see if you can find it in a neighborhood pharmacy or drugstore, or supermarket (which some of them also sell them), or online in their website.

About a diet, the main cause of acne is not your diet, eating chocolate or drinking too much soda, it's an old wife's tale, BUT a good diet will prevent excess oils in the skin which will clog pores and cause breakouts.

The main cause of acne are your body's hormones, we can't fix those with a change in diet. For me i go to the gym about 5 days a week, and excercise, this helps your metabolism break fatty acids that may affect your hormone production, as well as providing an overall well being for the body and get you nice and fit, a little blood to the old pump is sometimes the best remedy for current health problems as well as future undeveloped ones.

Stress is another factor that people a lot of the time don't consider, it does affect your acne because too much stress will trigger hormone production in the body and well you know the rest. Try to take life easily, i know sometimes it's hard but you gotta try, for my stress, excercise wipes it all out, and it usually does for a lot of people so think about it.

Well i hope this helps you and good luck with what ever you end up trying.

I tried all sort of acne treatments in my teenage including accutane, but it seemed like the more aggressive you go on stripping your skin of its oils, the worse it becomes.

At age 18, I discovered the forumla that I'm still following: cleansing twice a day with mild cleanser, tonning, & then moisturizing. I used clarins products when my acne was at its worst, then I switched to many other brands including declor, estee lauder, cle de beu (not sure about the spelling), creme de la mer... and many other brands (I did not like clinique though many people recommend it).

Now at age 36, I still get breakouts from time to time (rarely, but I still get them). You know what works as wonder that I just discovered lately? Himalaya products for acne. Their products are 100% natural with herbs and fruits, but they work like miracle. I'm not a fund of herbal medicine by the way (I'm pharmacist), but this indian pharmaceutical company made me believe in power of nature.

What I'm currently using is:
Himalaya gentle face wash for oily skin in the evening
clean & clear blackheads removing daily scrub in the morning
himalaya astringent toner morning and evening
followed by my daily routine from estee lauder
then twice weekly I use himalaya masks.. they have a mud mask with some herbs called (Neem), then I follow it with a peel-off mask from the same company.. you cannot beleive the resuts of these 2 masks
but.. at the begining, I started to use their face wash twice a day.. that was too much.. it dried out my skin that's why I now alternate it with clean & clear daily scrub.

Try to find the products.. they're wonderful.. now, i'm recommending them for everyone.. I should ask the company for commision :)
