Clearasil Ultra face scrub (or just the regular kind, I prefer the scrub)... it is affordable, you don't need a prescription, and you don't have to order it. I am 24, but I have acne prone skin and it works for me. My brother is 16 and he used to have terrible acne and blackheads, but it cleared it right up... very noticeable difference within days (they guarantee a difference in 3 days). I highly recommend it.

A lot of people will suggest ProActiv, it works well but is very harsh. Another alternative is AcneFree which is 20$ at Walmart, it works almost instantly, but I think three steps to do is annoying.
What I suggest is buying just the AcneFree Terminator Creme (it is in an orange tube for 5$) and Stridex pads (4$).
The Stridex pads are not to harsh on young skin
. I have cleared up my acne I used to have and prevent it by washing my face 2x a day with a Stridex pad and then at night before bed putting on the Terminator Creme.
It's easy, simple, works like magic.

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.
Source:
A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.
The secret is never to touch the spots
Tips on how to treat acne and achieve perfect clear skin in as little as 7 days?

I use:
Burts bee's. Creme and you can get the scrub for liek the really bad stuff, but if its ok and you just want a daily use, try the creme.
clean and clear morning burst for the morning. And the blue clean and clear. They all are scrubs.
proactiv is pretty good too. But it takes a while.
Clerasil I have never heard before. But still, anything with the word clear in it, that means its good (ha!)! lol.
Johnson & Johnson pads that have real natural soapy stuff in it. It smells and works wonderfully.
Obagi is great too. That's for older skint hoguh (like upper teens and beyond, my mom uses it lol!)
Good luck!
Frenchie is over and out. Des caresses et des baisers!

Queenbee is referring to AcneFree, a product that is comparable to Proactiv, but is sold at Walmart and pharmacies for a cheaper price (around 20 dollars).
The only time I have broken out is when I was pregnant. Acnefree promises on the box that you will see results in three days. I started seeing results in just one. I HIGHLY recommend it.

have you ever tried toothpaste?
i know it sounds weird, but if you only use it every once in a while (like once every couple weeks) then when you need fast results its THE BEST!!
it stings. and can make your eyes water, but that just means it's working. let it sit for a bit (just like 30 sec. to a min.) and then wipe it off. simple and doesn't cost much.
any kind or brand works.
trust me. just try it and you'll see!!

I like proactiv, especially for someone will sensitive skin. Other creams cause a rash and burned. But proactiv didn't hurt or burn at all.
