happy.gif Welps..my face was pretty bad, but..I went to a dermatologist and he put me on doxycycline and differen gel. It really helped. So you should go to a dermatologist. If you don't want to go to one..you can try proactive. My friend said it really worked. whistling.gif

Try using proactiv. I hear that works. My mom ordered some for me , my face isn't bad , but I get pimples , and it seems like they take forever to go away .

I also use Triaz [ or something to that spelling ] face wash.

Phisoderm , the patches helped me. But you would have to use a bandaid to hold them on while you sleep , that's what I did.

use murad or proactive, those stuff works good, i think murad is better tho

proactive
murad

ooo okay it's not that bad...i used to have stuff like that but it was probably WORSE! lol, but all good now! i used to use oxy clean it comes in different types depending on how sensitive your skin is...but that stuff only works if it's minor occasional pimples and stuff..but if yours is like constant and rarely your face is cleared up.. then go to your doctor and tell him that your face is always clogged up and he should give you some stuff that has <u>benzoyl peroxide</u> it'll help a lot! i'm all cleared up..but before you use it..wash your face with neutrogena oil free acne wash, pat it dry with a towel, then wipe your face with neutrogena clear pore oil absorbing astringent and apply teh cream (whether it's from your doc or from the store) lol basically neutrogena helps clean it..but get cream that has benzoyl peroxide to unclog and remove the acne and pimples and stuff...
best of luck!

wow that was a long entry lol..hope i helped biggrin.gif
theWALRUS
I used this one stuff.

Just wash your face a lot, and avoid touching it as much as possible..
Some clearasil stuff works well.

You look pretty in your picture to me. huh.gif But if you really want to get rid of blackheads and such, I use this mask thing called Mint Julep Masque and you can find it at Queen Helene Website And afterwards, it makes you feel refreshed happy.gif
xsweetdreams12x
Hmm... what are whiteheads?? huh.gif

I don't have that much acne, but I use Stridex, and it works pretty well. If your acne is that bad, maybe ProActive, or whatever it's called can help. happy.gif

dont wash your face too much. only 2 times a day and 3 if it gets really oily during the day. if you wash your face too much, you'll overdry your skin, which will only cause your body to pump MORE oil to compensate. (you can also use the oil absorbent sheets) keep your hair out of your face and drink at least 8 cups of water a day. change your pillowcase every 2 days or so to more prevent blackheads and acne. don't stress about it. it'll be hard but you'll just be causing more acne. avoid scrubs and masks because they'll only irritate the skin if its already broken out. don`t touch your face and avoid putting make-up on (if you put it on) because although they come out with foundation and concealers that dont clog the pores and treat.. its better if you dont wear it and just resist the urge if you want to. plus, eating oily foods will not make you break out but, you shouldnt eat much of them anyway because its not healthy. eat lots of vegetables and fruits--but dont rely on them as your only source of food because although they hold many vitamins.. they dont contain all the vitamins you need daily. (of course you know that.. right?)


just a few things i knew from the top of my head. look around the boards... i'm sure theres more stuff on acne and how to clear it. honestly, i think people might be getting sick and annoyed of typing the same thing over and over again.
pbear
Neutrogena products, especially their acne eliminating spot gel.
That stuff worked really well for me.

i wouldnt use peroxide cuz it dries up ur face
conster
actually, sometimes wen udont use ANYTHING.. its the best.. clean ur face with clear water for a week =) try it out.. i did it, it was clean and smooth =)
heroin_like_high
honestly? Use Proactive. That stuff really works. I used it and it clears up everything and makes your face alot smoother. Don't forget to drink a lot of water. And if you can, get a lot of rest too, as in sleep. happy.gif
xTINAA
basically i agree with everyone. eat healthy foods and get a lot of sleep. drink tons of water because it like helps flush out the bad stuff or whatever haha and dont touch ur face a lot. also, sometimes acne is caused by like the makeup you wear and stuff u know? so be careful with that too.

My mom told me that ProActive is really bad for you. I don't know though. My friend uses it and I'm not sure how oftne she uses it but she still has minor break outs. She says it smells good though. I honestly owuldn't know. I heard lemon juice works. I use this stuf that the regular doctor perscribed to me, it's called BenzaClin It's like 30 bucks for this little tub though. I'm not sure how well it works though. I still get breakouts and they don't seem to go away any faster when I use it. ermm.gif

i got this lil booklet on juices for eveything.. cuz my stupid diet thingy.. makin me feel like $hit -_- but anyways..

one of the drinks says.. somethin about clear skin.. drink cucumber juice... cuz of vite-E? i think.. n it cools you down..
s0pnayish
Proactiv works pretty good. I don't have much acne, but when I saw I started breaking out, I started using it cuz my dad ordered some for himself. And now, my face is clear again happy.gif
xxsamiixlynnxx
I got pimples sometimes, I was angry with my face, it is soo ugly.. So I rode to school with my mom, i did asked my mom why i always get pimples and my mom said, "You need to stop puttin make-up on your face or stop touchin your face. whatever" I asked her "How come you never get pimples when you're teenager?" She said, "Because i never use soap on my face, or touchin my face. Also, never ever put make up on me. NEVEr.. I drinks a lot of water." Hmm maybe it is help! :)
I will follow the rules about pimples from my mommy! she helps me alot.. my face got less of pimples now.. :)

then you're washing too much
your skin will automatically make more oil to keep itself moist.
sad.gif so please stop washing it 5 times a day
you're hurting it

you must be deadly asleep from 11pm to 1 am..
that's when the entire body system goes cleaning biggrin.gif
actually, no.. i think it's just certain parts like your liver and such

biggrin.gif so sleep! sleep sleep sleep~!
more water!!

indpendantbeauty
surprisingly, you know what works is if you have like only one or a few, just but a bandage on it, because my cousin said it blocks out the oil from things. my cousin had picture day the next day for freashmen pictures, and the night before, she but a bandage on, and the next day, it was almost gone! well, good luck!
dani41790
umm dont eat anything oily and drink lots of water
x3chrissyx3
I never broke out as a teenager, but my sister is 17, and she did. She never had it SEVERE, just ya know, bumps on her forehead, what she does now is:

Wash face with Cetaphil (normal to oily) 2 times a day
Put on Clearasil Ultra 2 times a day
If she needs to put on make up, when she's going out...she usues, Clean and Clear dual action moisturizer, and then puts on make-up, but in your case you're better with the cream.

she's all good now.
Clearasil Ultra is the SH!T...seriously, i have never seen anything work like that. Also Persa-Gel, and Clean and Clear advantage are good sh!t too.

Good investments.
Good luck, hun! _smile.gif
Uh oh its Jay

USE PROACTIVE SOLUTIONS!

it works like a charm but its quite expensive (30 bucks for a kit). but i think its worth it. and guess what? it even eliminates acne scars laugh.gif
