my son has been using pine tar soap for a over three months now. it has really helped clear it up. he had it really bad. huge sores on his face, back and some on his arms and chest. you can get it thru your pharmacy. it costs about $4 a bar and a bar can last 3-4 wks. His skin is 100 percent clearer now

you can irritate your face by cleaning it too often - once in the morning, and once at bedtime should do the trick. otherwise you are going to dry your face out and trick your body into producing more OIL!! like you need that!
now... what to do for acne... two of my children have had severe acne (face, back...) - do a google search for vitamin B5 for acne. another name for B5 is Pantothenic Acid. you have to take it in large quantities and i have found the least expensive place on the web is www.swansonvitamins.com (it's on sale right now). pantothenic acid is like a natural accutane - without the toxic effect. it has done miracles for my daughter, who i thought would be severely scarred, but isn't. my son takes it also and hasn't had acne as severe as my daughter. i have another daughter that was getting acne on her back, she uses it occasionally - as needed. the secret to it working is taking enough of it and being consistent. within a month you should see a huge difference. if you have other questions, just email me. i have tried to give you a link where they aren't selling anything - although you can still find good information about B5 on those sites - just remember that all you need is a good B5 supplement and nothing fancy.

Well, I would recommend using Acne Free
its 17 dollars, and you can buy it at Target.

You should wash your face twice a day.
