Answer 2

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

Clinique does wonders. if you have the budget for it! Go there and talk to a consultant and tell her your problems and she will find the best one for you!

If you're not able to do that at the moment, go to walmart and look in the Neutrogena section. They have a foundation that specifically says it is for acne prone skin. I've tried it and it clears you up and looks natural. It has either benzoyl peroxide or salycic acid in it to dry out the pimples you do have and has moisturizers to prevent new ones from popping up!

If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.

For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.

Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.

Answer 5

Just make sure you buy a foundation that is oil-free, fragrance free and hypoallergenic!! I really like Mary Kay Foundation and it lasts all day without the drying out of the skin!!

Answer 6

I LOVE the new Cover Girl whipped foundation Smooth Effects. It is so light and blends really well. Plus you don't have to pay a ton of money for it! It doesn't feel oily at all either.

Answer 7

I like Clinique City base compact foundation followed with Clinique Stay-Matte Sheer pressed powder which is oil free

But I'm trying out something new which is still in the "testing stage" ..its the Revlon stay foundation thing...I dont remember what its called....

Answer 8

Try the "Marcel" products... or Biotherm if you want to spend a little more money... I am a cosmatition and if you don't have to wear foundations don't. Let it clear up first. Hope this helps!

Answer 9

Anything that is "oil free" will be fine for your skin. I believe all Neurtrogena products are oil free and hypo allergenic. I'd start with that line. Hope that helps!

Answer 10
