I have found that taking prenatal vitamins that I buy over the counter has been of help when it comes to my acne issues. I did check with my dr to be on the safe side as I have never been pregnant in my life and she told me that it was ok for me to take and that many of her non-pregnant patients have taken them.

I also found out from the pharmacist at my local Wal-Mart (that's where I buy my prenatal vitamins) that it is the best thing for a woman to take when it comes to multi-vitamins.

Check with your dr to be on the safe side if you decide to try it.

For facial products I found that Physoderm and Noxzema worked the best. They also have a generic equivalent in most drugstores.

Also, some hormone imbalances have acne as a symptom. So pls ask your dr about checking for hormone imbalances.

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://acnehomesolution.com 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.

Go to a dermatologist and have them give you a prescription for like Retina Micro and Benzyol Peroxide. They will dry out your face, and the Retina makes your skin kind of flaky for the first couple days so just make sure to use some moisturizer or lotion every night.
