Does anyone know any good acne treatments?
I had very serious acne a couple years ago. I tried Proactiv and it didn’t work for me either. My dermo put me on Accutane which is an antiobiotic. It is very strong, and some parents are against it because it is such a strong medication. It definately cleared my face up though! Talk to your doctor and do some research online!
Oil Free Acne Wash with Microclear. It’s in an orange bottle and is made by Neutrogena. It’s about 8$ at Target or Walmart last I got it. Make sure it says “With Microclear Technology”. here are some home remedies: Apple Zinger Facial Mask (Oily and Acne Prone Skin) Take 1 medium size apple, grated fine, 5 tbs. honey. Mix the grated apple and honey well. Smooth over skin and let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cool water. Cool as a Cucumber Yogurt Facial (Normal/Oily Skin) 1/2 cucumber 1 Tbsp plain yogurt Puree cucumber in blender mix in yogurt, apply to face. Leave on for 30 minutes. Rinse well. Honey Mask (Oily/Blemished Skin) Massage a small amount of slightly heated honey onto skin and leave on for 10-15 minutes. Be sure to wash off all the honey with lukewarm water or the honey left will clog your pores, resulting in more acne. Wheat germ may be added for its abrasive action, protein and nutrients. Pineapple Olive Oil Mask In a blender, combine 4 large pineapple chunks or 1/2 c
It’s difficult to say what would work on you when I don’t know what you’ve tried. Also everyone’s skin is different and while one treatment might work miraculously on one person, it could actually make another person’s acne worse. My advice would either be to see a dermatologist. If you can’t afford that, determine your skin type and get a cosmetic product that is specifically designed to treat that skin type. When I was 13 or so, I got my skin type analyzed and found a product to clear up my skin at a department store’s cosmetic area. I don’t know if all department stores do it but I’m pretty sure that they do. Also, I would recommend that whatever you find, use consistantly. If the product bottle says “use daily” on it, don’t use it one day, skip a few days, and then use it another day. Keep up with your treatments. Also, don’t use the product too much. Overuse of the product can actually irritate your skin and make your acne worse. You also might want to make some adjustments to you
