Answer 2

Hi! Getting rid of acne can b a very long process. No topical treatments can really cure your acne problem so buying face washes and scrubs will not help. Most dermatologists are only interested in making money and selling you products so I would not waste time or money with them.

Most of the time acne is caused by food allergies, toxins in the body or hormones. Everybody is built differently, so finding out what causes your acne can be a long process. Many people have totally cleared their skin up just by eliminating certain foods that trigger acne, going to the bathroom more often, or using herbs to regulate their hormones.

One thing I reccomend u try is going for one to two weeks with a very strict diet. You can only eat these things: unflavored vegetables, fruits, whole grains, seeds, unseasoned nuts, eggs, vitamins, fiber, water, fresh juice. Things along that line. If after the one -two week period your skin clears up, then you know food was what was causing your acne. You have to slowly incorporate other foods one at a time back into your diet, noticing whether they upset your skin or not. It is a slow process but it is the only way! This is what worked for me. I have clear skin now and watch carefully what I eat!

Answer 3

Okay. I used to have so much acne, I've used everything in the book. I have so many bottles and creams, but this works so well, it's all I've been using since. It's called Clearasil Daily Acne Control Vanishing Acne Treatment Cream. You put 2-3 layers on the spot that's most severe, 3 times a day. And then the next day it's gone. I love it, my friends love it, its one of those things that really do work. Try it!

Answer 4

I used to have an acne problem, also. However, I found an acne solution that cleared my face right up. I use Neutrogena Advanced Solutions. It's a face wash, nightly treatment, and day skin care with SPF 15 to prevent sun damage. Three steps and your face clears within two weeks (or it did for me). I have also tried Proactiv, although this did not work nearly as well. You can get it for $20 at a local drug store. Sure, I get the occasional breakout, but my face is ultimately clear. Good luck.

Answer 5

1. Drink Loads of water. Lots. Close to 3 or 4 liters per day. Have half a liter as soon as you wake up. Half a liter before going to sleep.
2. Wash face twice a day. Mild soap like a baby soap or use moisturiser.
3. Use some acne treatment gel or general pimple cream...only at nights.
4. Have Papaya for breakfast.
5. Try Apples and several fruits for breakfast.
6. Use sun cream if you roam in the sun. SPF>15
7. Wash face everytime you feel it gets oily.
8. Keep wiping your face with kerchief every half hour.
9. Use Erythromycin lotion on pimples and hav Vitamin B supplements.

Within one and a half weeks you'll be alright.

Answer 6

there are a million in one brands and just because someone may love one brand and hate another it may not be the same for you. You have to keep trying different things and most of all fined out what type of skin you have, since that will help a lot in knowing what you should look for. Every company will tell you their's is the best its what they managers are on their neck about to do but there are a few people out there that can really help. Also the usual things you hear about eating too much of one thing or another like chocolate and salty foods will not change how much you break out! yes some people will see a little difference but that is not a real reason. Sadly though a big reality is for some people they will have acne for most of their lives but you can help you sikn stay health and that way you can reduce the effects and have better skin.

only thing that really worked for me is Clarins (all nautarl stuff) its from Paris i knwo macy's and lord and taylor and carson's will cary it some other high named stores will too. no matter what line i worked on i will NEVER give that up. its what works for me and thats whats really important. I'm happy to have all my acne gone since i used to have a big problem too. also they know what they are talking about i studyed their stuff a lot! since i learned that i have to get the real info

ps. most dermatalogest are just money gready liers that will give you stuff that will not work and most of all is horible for your skin! they tend to tell you something extreamly horible and give pretty much med. for your face. please save your self and don't go there

Answer 7

Check out Continuously Clear products by Seriesse! They work on all skin types and combine the best FDA approved medications - Salicylic Acid (cleanser) and Benzoyl Peroxide (daytime treatment) - with natural ingredients known for their soothing and hydrating properties. You can order the products individually, but the best deal is the 5 piece set that includes an oral skin supplement called Clear Skin that helps address the internal stressors that wreak havoc on your skin. Watch the short before and after 30 day video diary of a fellow acne sufferer on www.myseriesse.com/sbruck and see what you think. Good-luck.

Answer 8

The products you are using, are they salycic acid or benzolyl peroxide? BP can be VERY drying. I personally like SA better. Almost all washes have it. They try finding a face lotion with it in it. Clean and clear has a good moisturizer with SA and it helps keep pimples at bay. Personally, I use Biore products (which you get over the counter. Their products range from $5-$10). They are harsh on pimples, but not on your face. I think you will just need to experiment with products until you find what works for you. Remember, it can take 1 month for products to fully begin working!
Personally, Proactive didn't work for me. I have been using Biore products for over a year and I hardly ever break out! Occasionally I will get one or two, but nothing bad. For body acne I use Neutrogena acne body wash I never break out on my body. It gets 110 in summer so sweat in inevitably, yet I never break out. Give it a try. All of it is cheap too. About $5-10 depending on what you buy! Salysic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying fo rme! Good luck!

Answer 9

I had acne in my teen years and also tried everything I could think of over the counter,but nothing worked.Now that I'm in my 30's I have used proactiv for 3 years and it works for me..I use it 2xs a day and I cant believe I didnt use this any sooner..hope this helps...

Answer 10

don't pick them at all. use a clean and clear daily pore cleanser for about a month twice a day and use a light moisturizer (ponds) and drink plenty of water, exercise, don't stress, keep hair off face, get a facial once a month, oatmeal facial, or go on murad.com for acne medicine. It's better than proactiv not as dry.

Answer 11

put a mixture of cucumber juice and lemon juice and splash.
rinse

or, Peel and mash eight cloves of fresh garlic. Apply to face avoiding the area around the eyes. Leave on for about 15 minutes. Wash off with a warm cloth. Finish with a rinse of the vinegar pH balancer.

or, Make a face pack of bran plus baking soda and water. Mix into a paste, apply to the face, leaving on for 15 minutes. Rinse with solution of 1 part apple cider vinegar and 8 parts water.

or, Dilute some lemon juice with water, dab pimple with solution to kill germs, cool inflamation and improve blood circulation.

one of these should help
