Proactive is good in preventing pimples, but it's time consuming and can be expensive. I never actually used it because I was too lazy to apply 3 layers of treatment.
Acutane works REALLY well, but it's only used for bad cases. It has some pretty nasty side affects, too.
What I really like is 'Clean & Clear' Advantage: Acne Spot Treatment. It doesn't PREVENT pimples per se, but it works really well to reduce the appearance of pimples.
Also, it's thought that regular soap can clog pores (thus leading to pimples), so use a Neutrogena soap specifically designed for clear skin.

Klear Action is exactly like proactive but you can get it at walgreens and target and its cheaper. It works great. You also may want to use a clay mask to clear your pores once a week or every few days if youhave really oily shin. Don't scrub too hard and DONT pick at them. It can cause infections and make them look worse. Pick up a book by Diane Irons too. She has a ton of cool tricks to get rid of pimples using stuff we all have in our pantry or fridge. We all get them so don't stress about it too much.

pimples are normal. everyone gets them every once in a while. they are very annoying, and when you get one you think EVERYONE notices. proactive solution (im sure you've seen the commercials on tv) works VERY well. it gets rid of acne. Neutrogina soap and face wash also works very well to get rid of acne and prevent pimples, you can find neutrogina at any store or drug store. if you just have a pimple or two, its best to wash your face everyday to prevent more.

Use Proactive it works really good! But the bad thing is, is that if you stop using it for a while then the pimples will come back really fast. But wash your face everyday, don't eat too much chocolate, don't touch your face too much and drink plenty of water. For sure your skin would look perfect. â¥

I suggest to just take a day off from all your stress. While your taking that day off, find at least four different acne cremes. First get your face wet and put soap on it. A lot of soap, and let that stay for thirty minutes. while your waiting try to catch up on sleep or simple housework. Maybe do your nails. After thirty minutes wash everything off your face ( DON'T SCRUB YOUR FACE!) Then repeat those thirty minutes with each of your acne creams. When you're done be sure to put cold water on your face to close the pores. Then for the rest of the day just sleep so you can let your face concentrate on keeping clean.

bare minerals. my friend and i use it you can barely feel that you wearing makeup. it doesnt break out your skin and its all natural. and not tested on animals which is why we use it. also use pro active even if you dont have pimples it prevents them also. go to your dermatologist if you have difficult skin or a skin condition.

Artistry makeup. I own part of the business and I haven't had any kind of problem since I started. My cousin who is in 8th grade is the only one in her class without acne. She has flawless skin b/c of it. Visit my website: http://jschaefer1.qbeautyzone.com/ and have fun.
