Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

If you would like to learn how to treat your acne permanently and regain your health and wellbeing, without drugs, without typical acne treatments, and without any side effects, then this will be the most important letter you will ever read.

Proactive is a good solution. Other than that dont wear any makeup,it only irritates the skin more unless of course its mineral makeup. Do not over wash your face it will only get it worse. Wash face with any product that contains salycilic acid, then use toner and moisturizer. At night use the aloe vera as a mask. Get a plant and take out the gel from within apply a couple dots of lemon and apply on face, after an hour rinse out. also when drinking water add lemon drops, it helps detoxify your body.

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!

!There is something called pro active that is supposed to be good, but I think it is cheaper to do the following;

Keep you hair out of your face.
Wash your face three times a day, when you wake up in the morning in the middle of the afternoon and before you go to bed. Use soap with no perfumes.

DO NOT MOISTURIZE

Rubbing alcohol is OK to use on severe acne but tends to dry the skin out a bit so use it sparingly with a cotton ball.

Defoliate with a good product. Use something like St.Ives Apricot scrub (as mentioned it works well and is natural)

If you sweat...wash your face again.

If your a girl stop all make up until your face clears.

Acne is from clogged pores not from diet. Keep your skin clean and dry.

DO NOT USE ANY MOISTURIZERS!

There's an acne kit similar to Proactive called Acne Free. It could be quite costly but I've seen many coupons and such in Sunday papers. The starter comes with a face wash, repair lotion and purifying cleanser. There are also face masks and acne creams available. I used it a few months ago and it cleared my face in about a ten days, maybe less.
Good luck!

I recently started using the Neutrogena Advanced Solutions kit. It comes in three pieces, with a wash for morning and night, then two small leave-on creams, one for morning the other for night. It worked so quickly and I was so impressed, it was only like a week and I was clear. The only downfall is that the day lotion is somewhat oily, but it's fine if you reduce it to every other day. I bought it at Walmart for like $19, I think.

I would recommend going to a dermatologist and see if you can get some medicine prescribed for you. I take a pill and use a cream nightly for mine, and I noticed an improvement in 2 weeks. The doctor told me that it could take up to 8 weeks to completely clear up, but it has helped me.
He also recommends washing your face with a soap free cleanser (Cetaphil, Purpose) and using an oil free moisturizer daily.

LISTEN TO ME:

start out by washing your pillow case. when you sleep at night the oil from your hair seeps in to the pillow case and your face could be breaking out from that.

make sure your using a clean washcloth to wash/dry your face with.

drink more than enough PURIFIED water (aquafina or dasani are the best) green tea works well too.

DONT POP, PUSH, SQUEEZE OR TOUCH YOUR PIMPLES. this can only lead to serious SCARRING and the bacteria will spread on your skin creating more pimples.

wash your face atleast twice a day and use a salcylic acid (oxy daily cleansing pads) and benzoyl peroxide before going to bed at night.

eat healthy! dont pig out on junk food and try to steer clear of sodas. fruits and veggies are healthy and can promote clearer skin. avoid foods high in iodine.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!

I don't know how old you are....or how much $ you are willing to spend. I have bad acne. Had it all my life. Did a series of microdermabrasion facials and saw a major difference after my 3rd one. expensive tho. i've found success with proactiv and murad. murad helped with tightening of pores. you can also find products with hydroquinone which is a bleaching element in products to fade pigment (spots from acne). good luck!

I've found that products don't really work out for me, everyone's skin is different. I'd recommend you see a dermatologist.

What I do is drink lots of water and wash my face twice a day.
