Hey Im trying To figure out what acne cream should i use between proactive or WHAT??please help

Please, i dont have it all over my face, just near my hairline, on my back, chest, forehead, chin, and nose
ok well i do have it everyhwere….
but please does anyonre have any really good acne remedies? I have very oily skin, i use proactive and sea breeze astringent
its just awful
anything that will help?

Please don’t say proactive because it does not work for me. Also I am sort of on a budget so any acne cream I can get from Walmart or Ulta or something that wil be great. Also are there any foods I can eat to get rid of pimples? Honestly I dont have a lot its just there are these few pimples that will not go away after 2 months use of proactive so I guess proactive doesn’t work on them. Thanks.

Every pimple I get turns into a dark spot and I’ve tried everything you can imagine to stop this from occurring from Proactive to seeing a dermatologist and getting topical creams, but nothing has worked. Now I’m getting a series of microdermabrasion and chemical peel treatments and that doesn’t seem to be doing much either. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Alright, Im 13, and for about a year and a half, i’ve had this weeeeird acne. Its on my cheek, and its like smooth red bumps. The only reason why its noticable is because its soo red! I have no idea what it is, and im not even sure if it is acne. It doesnt hurt, and it usually gets really bad around "the special time of the month" but it never really goes away. It did for a while, then it came back. Its just on my cheeks, and i dont get pimples or whiteheads or blackheads there, just this weird stuff. its not filled with puss or anything, you cant squeeze it to make it go away, or whatever like regular acne. ive tried all sorts of things from Proactive, to Clean-and-Clear, to Neutrogena Wave, to just regular soap. the Neutrogena Wave made it go away, but it always came back. My parents refuse to believe its rosacea(idk why!) Im NOT allergic to anything… umm, yeah thats all. So, is there a way to get rid of it for good,and what kind is it? oh and does a peel-off mask work for regular acne?
right now, its going away, but i know it’ll come back so its really annoying me. usually when i just put on some powder and leave it on at night, ill wake up to it like faded a little bit, even after i wash it off. oh and any makeup that would be good to like seriously cover it up? its in like little patches in my cheek, so its not on my whole cheek, which makes it worse!

I have been using this product called oxy and other products to remove my acne and proactive[but that doesn't really work]. Anyways I have seen a tremondous result of using these products but i have been getting black marks…..I am an African American but I have light skin so you can see it…what are some things that u hav done to remove these marks and is there anythin that i need to buy……….thanks

I am 20 years old and still really bad acne. I have blemishes all over my face. The type of acne i usually get are the nodules(cystic type). Does anyone know of a really good over the counter medication besides proactive that will help. I also pick at my face, which makes it worse, but i can’t stop. Any suggestions? Oh and i can’t go to a dermatologist because i do not have health insurance and cannot afford it.

Well, I was thinking about putting lemon juice on my forehead to clear up my acne. I’ve heard it works, but I’m scared it’ll dry up my sin like toothpaste did! (I used WAY too much, but still..) Are you supposed to put it all over your face, or just a little bit on the zits? Does it make your face flaky, discolored, and what do I do if it does?? As you can see I’m kindof nervous about trying it, but I really want to.

Something extra: A few tips & home remedies for acne I’ve found over my teen years that have worked!

*Potatoe slices (Just used them today! Work great!)
*Visine red eye drops to take down swelling/redness
*Oil absorbing sheets
*Ice to take down painful swelling
*Toothpaste
*Egg whites
*The product AcneFree…I’m almost sure it’s the afforable remake of ProActive, and so did the store manager. I use the "Severe Acne" which comes in and orange bottled set. After about a year of searching, this product did it!

I was always prone to acne. Pregnancy made it even worse. I am 30 weeks pregnant now and I am willing to try anything (safe!) to improve my skin condition. I’ve never tried Proactive, and I am not sure if it’s safe. Thank you so much for any info you can give me!!!

i have already tried clearaseal, proactive, and some neutrogena stuff.
