I like the Neutrogena acne system - face wash, daily moisturiser and night cream, comes in a boxed 3 pack.
It's very drying at first, I had to use it every other day, but I've had good results with it.

I'm 30 years old and my face recently started breaking out really bad. I bought some Neutrogena cleansing cloths with the active ingredient of Salicylic Acid and it works great. Many of the acne leave-on creams/gels have either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid as the active ingredient which usually causes red irritated skin, which I've actually experienced myself, but the washes have a lower dose of it which won't irritate. It's been working great for me.

raw unpasteurized apple cider vinegar
heat a qt of water, add 3 tblspns vinegar, make a tent over the pot, cover your head with a towel, steam your face. then dab some vinegar on your skin to clean, do this process 2 more times, then squeeze the blackheads. mix 1/2 water, 1/2 vinegar, chilled, dab on face to close pores and tone skin....
as a skin care routine,
raw unpasturized apple cider vinegar..
the following 2 testimonials can be seen at http://www.earthclinic.com/cures/acne.ht...
Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a "very bad complexion". She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!
you can get it at the health food store, or in some super marktet health food sections. i use bragg vinegar..
good luck
Cheryl writes, "My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up."
to drink it, put it in honey and water, or apple juice--tastes like cider..cost is 5 dollars a qt at the healthfood store

ProActive System is by far the best without a prescription. Dramatic results to people I know.
