Acne!!?!?!?!?!?

Posted: February 3rd, 2012 | Author: | Filed under: Uncategorized | 13 Comments »

I have acne that doesn’t look too bad but it never goes away and it’s really annoying. Right now I’m using an Aveeno salycic acid cleanser and Clean and Clear Invisable Blemish treatment. What are some good products to use?

    Step 1. is to use an acne-fighting facial cleanser and a soft towel to PAT dry which you need to do EVERY morning and EVERY night.
    Three of the most popular acne-fighting compounds are salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and triclosan. These can be found a almost any store, I suggest using a combination of the three ingredients, like a face wash with triclosan (Noxema Triple Clean is good), and then a topical cream (at night) with benzoyl peroxide (like Clean&Clear Persa-Gel).
    Step 2.
    Because most of the time acne is genetic and is hard to keep under control – you need to see a doctor and get a prescription acne medication, like an antibiotic or topical cream that you apply to your skin.
    There a lot of pills out there which means a little of trial and error until your skin will respond to the right one. Generally the doctor can you give you samples of 1-2 weeks worth of pills and that way you don’t have to spend money on something that won’t work.
    Step 3.
    It is important to make sure you shower every day, especially in the evening because bacteria, oils, and sweat from your skin get onto your sheets and then on to your skin which assist in breakouts. I suggest changing your bed sheets pretty frequently as 3 times a month and maybe every week for your pillow case. It’s very important that you also start a good dose for about 3 months of Evening Primrose Oil 2x day and Zinc 1 x 50mg day to help reduce inflamation, (they are supplements specific to skin conditions and do wonders) Drink lots of water (NO carbonated drinks of any sort), and start exercising minimum 3 x week (even if it’s a good power walk for 1 hr). This will help your body flush its system naturally and prevent further breakouts because by moving, your blood will start circulating at a higher pace and that’s what you want.
    Try and stay away from covering your face with make up, but if you need to help with your confidence, there are good mineral based make up brands out there, just make sure you do WASH your face before you go to bed at night.

    Hope it helps.

    A fantastic brand that is a paramedical brand that is specifically targeted to all types of acne is

    I’d recommend getting a facial there every 6-8 weeks, they do wonders and their topical cream for acne is amazing!

    Good Luck!

    Just wash your face with soap….works for me. I use irish spring original and it does a great job of getting the dirt off.

    I dont really have acne but for zits and to keep acne away I use a little tube of Clean and ClearnAdvantage Acne Spot Treatment. You get clearer skin in one day. I’m not joking I promise! I also wash my face everynight with a normal Clean and Clear oil free face wash. It is orange. they are both around 5 dollars. so get that and wash your face and use the cream (its invisible) every night and morning. hope it works for you!

    i bought proactive and it really seems to work. when i have a break out i use it for a couple of days and the pimples go away.
