Aloette...
Simply Clear Value Package
Crap. I just ordered Proactive, %26amp; it cost me 25hrs of work! It better work for me.

natures cure 2 part acne treatment works amazingly, plus if you eat right and no junk food and drink lotsa water, you'll see claer skin in no time it worked for me! and if u have those nasty little red scars, wash ur face with lemon juice every other night, fades them in about 2 weeks!
I have always been skeptical about products for acne, but I splurged and tried ProActive and I LOVE IT! It is worth the money.
try aveeno
i use neutrogena! lol
Try St. Ives Apricot Scrub, it works for me...or try Noxzema..i think these two are the best...u have to keep trying different ones....and at first when u use it ur face is gonna break out...so wait a few weeks when you use something new to see whether or not the treatment is working...well hope this helps =]
I use clearasil and my doctor prescribed me this diferin cream which really works...
If Proactive doesn't help (have you used it long enough?) get an appointment with your doctor. My daughter used Proactive successfully for several years and then it just stopped working for her. The doctor prescribed tetracycline and it really helps her although she has to do her part by keeping her skin clean and eating the right foods and drinking lots of water.
i use neutrogena. if your acne is really bad, you could always go see a dermatologist and get something prescribed thats what my friend did.
You have to get what is right for your skin and your routine...i would start of by trying something for your skin type..just make sure you use a face wash a toner and a moisturizer. good luck
My girlfriend was on Acutane and that worked like a charm. It's prescription, I think.
Go to your search engine and type in ';skincarerx.com'; they have esthititions (sp?) there, and dermatologist recomended skin care. They have treatmenets for acne which uses glycolic acid and mandarin acid too. This is a excellent site, I have used the glycolic acid for years, just type in acne and it will take you to their acne treatments, highly recommended.
Proactiv
Anything with the brand ';Neutrogena.'; Try....Clear Pore Oil-Controlling Astringent by Neutrogena. I got it at Wal-Mart for about $4 in a clear blue-ish bottle. IT works fine. IT didnt' work until after three days. You just also have to buy the square cotton pads to pour this on and wipe your face with.
It sounds weird
but if you put toothpaste on the acne it works
I had the same problem, I tried Proactiv but it didn't work. If i find one that works ill let ya know
Pro-activ works but it's expensive.
Accutane works, but it takes a few months to complely clear you up, and you have to get blood tests every few weeks, but it is worth it!
i use this GREAT stuff that you can get at the doctors with a prescription. its called Benza Clin. it works like magic. you put it on a night and the next morning the pimple is almost gone. its ahh mazzingggg! if ur acnes not very bad, then the doctor may not give you the prescription.you may not want to get something from the doctor, but its worth it. good luck!
