Answer 2

oh lol i have the same problem.

1. Wash your face only once a day, twice can actually give you spots.

2. Not getting anough sleep can cause this.

3. If ever in Turkey have a turkish bath, takes all spots away.

4. In a weekend try your best to prevent them before school on Monday

Good Luck, Chris

Probably the most useful and effective things you can do are to apply hot compresses to pustules and cysts and never to pick or squeeze pimples. Playing with or popping pimples, no matter how careful and clean you are, nearly always makes bumps stay redder and bumpier longer.   Here are a few informative links with additional home treatment ideas.

I swear by NOXZEMA. U could find it at any drug store and they come in different sizes and prices. I use it as a mask at night and leave it on for about 45 minutes and then wash off with warm water. U can leave it on for as long as your face can stand it. It doesnt hur or burn not even if u picked at ur face and then put it on. It just feels fresh before and after having it on......

Answer 8

Hun, dont wash your face so often with all those products, it can dry out your face.

Try Clean & Clear products, I've found they work very well, mind you I hardly get zits. But dont expect it to work overnight, because you know anything that claims that is sheer bs. Also if it doesnt fully clear when you want it to (and it probably wont) Find a medicated concealer to try and cover it up.

try going to whole foods and buying dessert essence tea tree oil face wash, and dessert essence blemish stick, use the blemish stick after you wash your face with the tea tree oil! they work really well =]

Neutrogena. I have it... it works in 2 or 3 days.

Answer 11

nothing works better than differen. go to the doctors and ask for a prescription. it works great!

Answer 12

If it is on your chin, it is most likely hormonal.

Are you on the pill or some form of birth control? That will mess up your face pretty badly. (been there)

And 2 weeks is nothing. Just washing is only half the battle.

There are A LOT of factors. How much sleep you get.....what your diet is like......if you exercise.......stress.......lots of things.

You should be able to see a dermatologist and he can put you on a Rx that can help.

If that is not an option, I would highly suggest a daily dose of some good vitamins.

Papaya is also really good for acne. You can get it in a chewable vitamin form.

Answer 13

Acne wash and washing your face often doesn't always do the trick. It might be certain foods your eating or maybe even from the way you sleep. Try cutting out any food that might be too greasy or full of fat and wash all your bed covers. I hope it helps. =]

Answer 14

well it depends on how much or how severe your acne is, if its not that bad you should get St. Ives Apricot Cleanser, it smells soo nice and it really helps out your skin :)

Answer 15

proactiv, it works for my skin the first day, it clears it up fast

it usually takes just about 2-3 days

Answer 16
