What are some good acne products?

Question

i'm african-american and some products don't work, like proactive, and the neutrogena wave.

Answer 1

Hey, I had acne really bad also. I tried a bunch of different products and they didn't work either. A friend refered me to this site and I got the information and tried it. It's all natural and it did work for me. I recomend it highly!

Answer 2

Everyone's skin is different, so you may have to experiment with different treatments to find something that works for you.  

ProActiv uses benzol peroxide, while most of the products you may find in the store contain salicylic acid.

If you have a lot of acne or deep, severe acne, a dermatologist may be your best bet, since a prescription-strength topical or oral medication may be more successful than over-the-counter treatments.

Answer 3

I tried the neutrogena wave too, and the first time my face felt great. I started using it daily, and all of a sudden it dried out my face horribly. Not doing that again.

Try going to a doctor for some prescription medicine, mine gave me benzaclin and it worked great!

Answer 4

Hi I used to use proactive until my facialist got mad at me. She said it's really bad for your skin. She put me on gm collins and it works wonders. It's a little pricy but what would you rather do? Also she told me to use a clean pellow case everynight, drink lots of water, wear my hair up, try not to touch my face, wash it twice a day. There's other stuff too! Also if you eat chocolate switch to carob. (I had to cut chocolate too!) It's difficult at first but it works.
