what your secret to clear skin?

Answer 1

Genetics. Some people are just blessed with clear skin genes. But you may want to try Proactive. It seems to help a lot of people.

Answer 2

wash daily so the oil doesnt build up on the face. Wet face and massage a scrub circular motion all over he face and wash off, then the face is smooth and oil free. dont use oil based products for the face regulary because the skin produces enough oil and added more oil can cause breakouts of acne o a pimple or two.
by the way proactive is only 86% affective and might not work on some peoples skin.

Answer 3

The products you are using, are they Salsylic Acid or Benzoyl peroxide? BP can be VERY drying. I personally like SA better. Salsylic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying for me! Try finding a face lotion with SA in it. Clean and Clear has a good moisturizer with SA and it helps keep pimples at bay. It is only about $5 a bottle and lasts about 2 months and you can get it at your local store. I have used this in the past and it works well. 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.
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. I use Biore Ice Cleanser for acne and Biore warming facial scrub every morning for blackheads (This stuff works. I notcied a DRASTIC diffrence in my blackeads being GONE within 2 weeks) . And then 3-4 day s a week I use Biore purging pore cream scrub. 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! Salsylic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying for me! 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! Good Luck!

Answer 4

the clearasil kit works really well
also get up every morning and
drink one glass of water with lemon
freshly squeezed into it. then mix
some kosher salt and lemon freshly
in the palm of your hand
(otherwise it doesnt work) and scrub
your face with it. Use hydrogen
peroxide as a toner ( big brown bottle
used to clean up scrapes) and lastly
before you go to sleep make
a honey mask made from 3 tablespoons
of honey and 1 teaspoon of ground
cinnamon well stirred and wash that
off when you wake up the next morning
make sure that you also wash your sheets
on a regular weekly basis
i assure you that if you use this routine
daily for 2 weeks you will find your
skin cleared up =]

Answer 5

Use Proactiv and keep your hair clean. Remember, your complexion includes your face, neck, and scalp. Avoid picking or applying alcohol to your face. This will only irritate your skin. Try to keep your hands off your face due to the oils in your fingers. Eat healthy, get 8 hours of sleep, and don't overdo sun bathing. Then, relax and don't stress out about your skin. In time, your skin won't be quite as oily as it is now. Good luck!

Answer 6

I learned this on a PBS Special. Testosterone reacts badly to sugar and white flour. Stop eating anything with sugar and white flour for 3 to 7 days and see how your skin looks. After 3 days, I lose all my acne and after seven days or more My skin looks amazing. I know its weird, but the dermatologist was right.

Answer 7

-Use Neutrogena oil-free range which includes oil-free facial wash, oil-free mosturiser and daily facial scrub
-The facial wash and mosturiser control production oil on the face and removes acne coz they both salicylic acid.
-The daily scrub removes the top layer of dead skin which also contains scars and black-heads. This gives room for a smooth and clear skin. It prevents further breakouts
-Blot your skin with blotting papers to absorb excess oil on your face any time your face gets shiny.
-Use oil-free and scent-free make up to prevent breakout of acne
-Avoid sugary and fatty food and drink more water. Also eat fresh fruits and veges
