Hi,

I totally know where you're coming from. I struggled with really, really bad acne about 2 years ago. Intially I tried tetra-cyclin and retin-a. However, my skin got freakishly dry and I started getting a weird rash on my face.

I quickly stopped taking them and tried Proactive. That sure was a waste of money. I finally started showering directly after the gym and found that this helped tremendously. I also tried a free product I got on the net called Beautiful Skin. Believe it or not, it worked way better than the prescription stuff! I only paid $4.95 shipping for a month supply. I re-ordered and I use it to make sure I don't get back my zits. It also has tea tree oil which feels really good on my skin.

Here's the link if you want to get it, I think it's a steal at $4.95

Good Luck!

I struggled with acne for years and I finally found the solution that works for me. We have been fooled, tricked, deceived, and just plain lied to. It's time that someone put a stop to it, and everyone learn the truth!

Those of us who suffer from acne have usually been given 2 choices and neither of them work:

1. Over the counter remedies such as cleansers, creams, ointments, etc. These things have been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.

2. Go see a doctor and or dermatologist. They will generally prescribe prescription drugs which include topicals and or antibiotics. This, too, has been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.

I found a step-by-step program that cured my acne and it has never come back. It is amazing and doesn’t use any drugs or doctors. The truth is that acne can be cured…if we know the secret the doctors and drug companies don’t want us to know.

There is a great website: http://cure-my-acne.info/3daycure/ that has all the details. I really suggest you check it out and see if it works as well for you as it did for me.

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.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

I've heard from a doctor that you can put a little toothpaste on your skin and leave it on overnight. This is supposed to help dry out acne and get rid of it.

EDIT: Acne is a BACTERIAL problem, you must KILL the bacteria if you want to get rid of the ACNE. Simply washing with soap will not kill he bacteria, you must use either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. I recommend 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had the same problem.

Wash your face everyday, 2x with a face wash meant for oily skin.

Apply Neutrogena On the Spot cream on your forehead.

Do this DAILY and dont skip a day.

The full regimen is on www.acne.org and it works, I have used it to treat acne on my cheeks and forehead a few years ago and still use it now for the ocassional pimple.

You want to use a cream which contains benzoyl peroxide.

Wash with soap and water 3 times a day with gentle baby wash soap.

I battled for a while too. I know it is frustrating. What worked for me was not touching my face. The day you stop probing is the day your face will start to improve! Drink a lot of water and exercise. That's what worked for me.
