Answer 1

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.

A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.

The secret is never to touch the spots

Answer 2

I use SpectroGel as a cleanser, with an exfoliating wash every other 2 days.

Then I put a lot of Vichy Thermal Fix moisturizer on to make your skin fresh and hydrated without clogging pores. Then Vichy's Normaderm all over my face.

I've also gone to a dermatologist, and gotten prescriptions for Tazorac - which is like a Retinoid that basically peels your skin gently, and get rid of all the dead skin cells and reveal the fresh young skin underneath and keep pores clean.

Answer 5

I use Natio Young 3 steps cleanser/toner/moist etc. It's inexpensive and soothing. I was using dermalogica which is the best! But I can't afford it anymore so Natio is the next best thing.

Don't try Clean and Clear if you have sensitive acne prone skin like mine! It makes my skin red and burning feeling.

Answer 6

Well, sometimes I use proactive, but it only works in a matter of days. For really healthy skin (I don't know if this treats acne or not) try St.Ives apricot scrub. It's really gentle to sensitive skin, I use it daily.

Answer 7

In my acne prone days I just used soap, rinsed with water, dried and dabbed on some rubbing alcohol and it seemed to work fine.
