  1. The Proactive you see on TV is amazing. You will only need to order it once and I am sure it will work for you.


  2. you remind me of me i tried many products and they either didn't work or made my face really dry. Like someone else said try drinking more water and stay aways from fat foods. Or try home remededies, i'll give you a link.

    hope it works!

  3. I've tried pretty much everything out there and nothing worked until I found acne.org. It has cleanser, 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, and moisturizer. It works really well. My face is pretty much cleared up already! Just remember that it takes time. =] Good luck!

  4. all i can say is DONT get neutrogena -_- it didn't work for me

    also- dont just think about what you could put on your skin, try drinking more water and eating more fruits and veggies.

    and dont eat too much junk food.

  5. Drink a lot of water and wash your face everyday with soap.  

  6. I used to have the same problem.  I started using proactiv and it is just like it says.  It works like an army, fighting those problem areas. I recommend this and drinking water.  

  7. Neutrogena. It's great. Do anything that says "Microclear Technology" on it.  

  8. Eat less food that contains a lot of oil. and get PROACTIVE. It helps! =]

    Your question is very broad and you need to get professional advice. I will explain why it's a broad question!

    Your age plays a role! How old are you? Do you always have breakouts?

    However, acne can result from several factors such an increase in hormone levels. In males testosterone or androgens. In females, androgens respectively. The increase in androgen levels can stimulate the oil glands to become enlarged and thus more oil production is produced. An increased oil production can clog the pores with oil or sebum ( white thick substance) which cause the cell walls of the pores in the skin to breakdown. This process allows bacteria to form and thus breakouts develop.

    Genetics may also be a cause. It is a myth that greasy food or chocolate causes breakouts.

    However, using make-up sponges that are not changed or washed often can contaminate the pores with bacteria which may develop into acneic breakouts.

    If you are a teenager ( which I assume that you are) your hormones play a definite role in your breakouts.

    If you have severe breakouts than you might need medication. There are many factors.

    The most important thing is that you need products that are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every age group has different products appropriate for them. If you are young than you need milder products as to not dry out your beautiful young skin.

    The problem with commercial skin products is that they are manufactured for MASSES OF PEOPLE and are not specifically made for different peoples' needs.

    Your skin type is different than mine and your age differs from mine so how is it logical that we both use the same skin product for breakouts. We need different strengths of cleansers and toners. Do you kind of understand what I am getting at?

    Here is my STRONG SUGGESTION for you. I refer all my students and patients to this website:

    www.aboutyourskincare.com

    You need to consult with professionals and on this website YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS FOR FREE AND A SKIN EXPERT/PHYSICIAN WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. It would be a shame if you dont take advantage of this free service.

    Lastly, they have incredible products for breakouts and they make them specifically for every kind of skin type. That means that if your breakouts are more severe than mine, than while we both will buy the same product yours will have stronger ingredients than mine will.

    They have a mild glycolic acid cleanser that's great for your type of skin and also a DRYING LOTION ( I have 3 bottles) that you put directly on your breakouts and the next day it's gone. It's truely magic in a bottle.

    A basic guideline for properly taking care of your skin is this ( now if you're a young girl you will need fewer products than this):

    Night time:

    1. Exfoliate the skin

    2. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser

    3. Mild Glycolic Acid Toner ( cleans off the excess debris and balances the PH level of the skin).

    4. Drying Lotion used only on breakouts

    5. Moisturizer

    Morning:

    1. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser

    2. Moisturizing cream

    The above is a standard you may need to only use one or two products. Visit: www.aboutyourskincare.com

    As I suggested and click on the ASK FOR FREE section send them an email and you will get free expert skin care advice.

    Good Luck to you,

    Michelle
