Help!!!!!!?

Question

I have really bad acne and I am trying so hard to get rid of it.....or at least make it somewhat go away. I have already used Proactive and that makes my face really oily. By the way, I have really oily skin. I am using something that I scrub my face with from avon in the morning and in the evening. It helps but not enough. I don't want to go to the doctor. So help me!

Answer 1

I also use the neutrogena makeup....the makeup also clears your skin....you can go to www.neutrogena.com and see which products are right for you!!! I hope this helps!!

Answer 2

Well, not wanting to See doctor is the first step that is really going wrong here. You should be motivated to see a doctor because that is your door to a world of not being embarrassed about bad acne. I know, Ive gone through it all. Please go and see your dermatologist. They might even assign you with a subscription of Differin. That's what I was given. It cleared it right up! And to this day, I have had 1 maybe 2 zits since then. But that's the life of a teen, isn't it??

Hope this helps!!

I found some really good things that help. What you need is a moisturizer. Moisturizers help stop your oil glands from producing alot of oil, which is part of the acne problem, I'm not sure why but its helping me. There's something called AcneFree that comes with a scar lotion too. I found it at Walmart. Try Velocity moisturizer to. Hopefully this helps. Another one is Clearasil Ultra, with 10% benzoyl peroxide. see what works

Answer 4

acne? well i dont suggest you eat a lot of sugar!!! eat a balanced and healthy meal each day. try to make it as sugar-less as possible!!! rub lotion on your face to keep your skin healthy and moisturized. or, if you really want to hide some annoying ones, buy some concealer or foundation and rub it over the area you wish to eliminate the zit from. it should cover it up a little- or a lot! depending on what kind of foundation or concealer you are using! it works!! ^.^
