What is a good skincare routine for a teenager with occasional acne?

Question

I have occasional acne and clogged pores in my nose. I think my skin is combination(oily in the T-Zone and dry on the cheeks). Can anyone recommend a brand or product that's not too pricey? Also, should all my skincare products be from the same brand? Sorry for all of the questions.

Thanks! I'm 15.

Answer 1

no, not all ur products have to be from the same line. i use clearsil and it works great. makes my dry area moisturized and minimizes my oily areas. another good brand is neutrogena rapid clear. u can get these at any drugstore or almost any store (target, shopko..). and they are all under 5 or 6 bucks each.

answer mine? please.

Answer 2

All of your skin care products don't need to be the same brand but mine tend to be. My favorite skin care program is....

Step one : Neutrogena deep clean invigorating foaming scub (only in the morning or evening because you dont want to over wash) rinse with warm water to open and clean pores.

Step two : Neutrogena deep clean invigorating ultra-foam cleanser and rinse with cool water.

Step three : Neutrogena deep clean invigorating dual action toner to help prevent breakouts (apply with cotton ball or cotton pad).

Step Four : Olay complete all day moisture lotion SPF 15 light, non greasy (to prevent skin damage from the sun and keep skin moisturized).

Step Five : Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment to use on breakouts when needed.

This line of Neutrogena leaves a great clean tingle in your skin! I love this line! I have done some modeling and i have heard that toner is the best to use before make-up to prevent break-outs! Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Well pro-active is good, dove,clean and clear i use pro-active and it works for me  

Answer 4

ok the best think to do is not touch your face and was your face every night and in the morning. I have the same problem. Another thing is avon has a really cheap acne line that makes your skin feel really good!

Answer 5

im the same age as you, and get occasional acne also. i use neutrogena rapid clear acne pads, clean&clear daily cooling toner, and clean&clear oil free moisturiser. i use these 2-3 times a day, and exfoliate about once a week with neutrogena power clear scrub.

sounds like alot, but its really not. just try out a few different products and see what works best for your skin. hope this helps

Answer 6

well I'm am fourteen and i just went to the dermatologist i was prescribed some face wash and cream.

MY ROUTINE

1. Wash my face twice a day morning and night.

2. Apply any special creams or lotions

3. Keep Hands away from face don't touch or pick

4. Cover the affected area at night to prevent irritation

Anyway your best bet is to go to the dermo.(the skin Dr.) because many of the products out there either make your skin worse or have no affect at all!
