Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

HONEY I USE THESE TIPS WITH ANY AND EVERY PERSON I DO MAKEUP FOR IN THE THEATRE DEPT. AT SCHOOL, INCLUDING CLEANSING MY OWN SKIN!
When it comes to the face, heat is the biggest key. Heat creates an atmosphere for your pores to expand. A hot rag (as hot as you can stand it) across the face is the best bet. As far as a topical treatment, you need to invest in a good scrub and a very fine toner. I tell people this all the time that I do makeup for. Here are some key things to remember when looking for cleansers:
1. A good scrub needs to have some sort of exfoliant (i.e. microbeads, pumice grains, etc.) in it. Once you have applied the hot rag to your face and opened up your pores, the scrub is used to get deep down into the pores and clean them out.
2. In a good scrub, stay away from anything that has a lot of soap or fragrance to it. Fragrance = additives that probably will makes things worse. Your main ingredient when looking for a scrub is salicylic acid. Salicylic acid acts as an antibacterial to cleanse deep to break up the blackheads and fight the bacteria causing them.
3. A good toner should be found because once the skin is clean, the toner is used to tighten the cleansed pores to minimalize the entrance of future bacteria. And sadly to say it (but get over it), A TONER DOES STINK! Its made primarily of alcohol, so it will stink! Get over it! It's worth it!
4. Lastly, and a lot of people don't think about this, find a light lotion with an added sunscreen (at least SPF 15). You want a light lotion (nothing fancy or fragrancy) with a sunscreen to prevent dryness from the toner and the sunscreen will help protect from sun damage (obviously!).
Always remember to catch blackheads before they start (before they become pimples)! And for the love of God: DO NOT PICK AT A PIMPLE IF YOU GET ONE! Picking only creates more infection from the bacteria on your hands....and most importantly: it's just GROSS! Some brands to try for a scurb or toner would be: Oil of Olay, Biore`, Clinique, Clean & Clear, Clearasil.......just to name a few! Also remember to drink lots of water to help keep down ure intake of oils. Oh and p.s. to guys who are reading this: just because girls use it in a commercial DOES NOT mean that a guy cannot use it too! A girl would like it a lot more to see a guy with a clean face and a cabinet full of girly skin care stuff, than Mister Zit next door! I'm gay....trust me on this!

It depends on the kind of acne you have. See a dermatologist to be sure.
Mild acne can be taken care of with over-the-counter stuff like salyctic acid, witch hazel, etc.
But if you have cystic acne, over the counter stuff really won't help you. Glycolic acid types of cleansers work best on this kind.

proactive works, but if you have sensitive skin DONT USE IT...your face will get all red and star peeling, it happened to me.....anything works if you use it consistently, just go to rite aide or sav-on and get some acne creams and use them all the time, and make sure to apply lotion on your face everyday so that your skin doesn't get dry because acne creams will do that to your skin.... heres the sucky part, it always gets worse before it gets better, but dont get discouraged, give it about 2 weeks and you'll start to see your skin clearing up!

Go natural. Use some olive oil, virgin if you can. Just use it as you would use a lotion on your face, leave it for up to 30 minutes, then wash your face thoroughly. Repeat twice daily. Only use when you're not stepping outside.

salicylic acid. better yet,benzoyl peroxide 10 percent.buy a cheap generic brand of walgreen or rite-aid. white toothpaste works as a drying agent.
don't wash ur face excessively, it will cause ur skin to secrete more oils. avoid constipation. and please don't pop ur acne, it will cause permanent spots or pitches on the face.
