I'm 15 and I have a mild case of acne and pimples,it's not that bad but i'd rather have a clear face.I've tried Proactiv but after months of using it and seeing no result i stopped using it and my acne got worse...i would like to know of any good treatments that i can buy for my acne.....stuff that i can get in Walmart and places like that.Acne/pimple treatment?
The products in stores might not work for you either, so I would reccomend you go see a dermatoligist, and ask them to prescribe you something, they should know what will help you best.
I use this medication my dermatoligist gave me, called Duac, and it works for me, but here are some things you could try at home also:
First, DONT use toothpaste, it could burn your skin. (it works for some people, but they might have a different skin type) also, you might not want to try all of the products advertised on t.v., because they might also not work for your skin type.
Cleanser: baking soda or sea salt.
Toner: Organic green tea or aloe vera gel.
Moisturizer: 1/2 cup water 3 tsp. vegetable glycerin and 5 drops lemon essential oil or oil free moisturizer.
Mask: (use 2 or 3x a week unless you have dry skin.) French ';green'; clay removes impurities tightens and tones skin. (You can use overnight as a spot treatment also.) Leave on for 10-20 min or until dry then rinse and moisturize.
Exfoliant: (use 2 or 3x a week unless you have dry skin.) Warm oatmeal mixed with a little honey. and left on for 5 minutes then rinse and moisturize.
Blackheads: Baking soda mixed with water into a paste and then add tea tree essential oil if you'd like then scrub the affected are 2-3 min. Or apply elmers glue to affected are let dry and peel off like you would pore strips. Works really well!
Daily as a morning toner/moisturizer you can use 1/4 tsp. aloe vera gel mixed with 2 or 3 drops of tea tree essential oil. Works really well.
take about four aspirin and dissolve them in a few drops of water.. add in a squirt of honey and make it into a paste.. you can also add in a few vitamin e capsules if ya like.. this can be used as a scrub, mask if left on for ten minutes, and a spot treatment left on over night.. it works like pro active.. i've used both and got the same result with each which is clear skin.. pro active dried my skin out, but aspirin didn't.. it's a lot cheaper also.. and crushing an aspirin and mixing it with lemon juice works too *oh.. and pro active contains benzoil peroxide.. whereas aspirin contains salicylic acid ..
honey alone as a mask works very well also.. leave it on for twenty minutes..
and lemon juice is a good toner..
hope this helps..Acne/pimple treatment?
You can try a different approach for curing your acne if the traditional ones are not working. See the natural acne cure source below. It has helped many with problem acne.
Use clearisil daily facial wash. If you combined this with the antibiotic Erythromycin it would do wonders.
yea try clearisil ultra deep pore cleansing pads.. they work :)
Aloe helps reduce redness,forming pimples and scars. Nothing will really remove acne scars, things will only lighten it and make it less noticeable. I had a problem with a few acne scars, I went to get facials atleast once a week and the acne scars were very much improved. Almost gone. I Recommend Balancing Skincare (Namyang Aloe) Good luck!
First: Wash with pHisoderm Clear Confidence -- Facial Wash. It contains 2% salicylic acid which is an acne treatment.
Second: Use Equate (Wal-mart) product: Acne Treatment Cream on individual outbreaks. It contains 10% Benzoyl Peroxide, which is in Proactive. It seems to be more effective than Proactive because it is not diluted. Use sparingly and only where you need it, because it is very drying.
Both of these products are very reasonably priced and quite effective.
Check this out, one person got rid of acne with colloidal silver.

In common parlance, acne occurs when the pores of the skin are blocked by natural oil produced by our bodies and dirt. This mostly occurs during the onset of puberty, as the hormones are developing and also occurs regularly in pregnant women.
There are various acne products available in the market. People are taking antibiotics as an acne treatment much more today than in the past. However what happens is that your body becomes resistant to them, thus eliminating antibiotics as the best acne treatment.
