Question: Any over the counter products to treat acne, oily skin, and the redness left by acne?
Ok, my dermatologist recommend that I wash my face in the shower with a cleanser but thing is, my face dries up real fast in the shower and after couple minutes out of the shower, my face starts to get real oily. I’m currently washing my face with a bar of soap, is this ok? He suggested putting lotion on after a shower however my skin is real sensitive that I cant use Cetaphil (which is what everyone uses) Im on medication right now taking Doxycycline. It doesnt help treat acne but rather slows the formation down. Is there a product that can get rid of oily skin? What about the red pigments left on your skin after acne? I have REAL sensitive skin. Thanks for the help!

Try honey and cinnamon. Yes, its sticky but take it from an ‘older adult’ that still suffers from acne…IT WORKS.
Look for “pimples” under this link:

I feel your pain my 12 year old daughter has horrible oily skin. I found a website that has natural remedies that you can make and use at home. I will send you some, they work really well.

An oily skin , as the name implies, is one in which the sebaceous or oil-producing glands are over active. As surface grease tends to attract dirt, an oily skin acquires a dirty surface film , that needs to be removed daily. For more details log to http://useinfo-oilyskin.blogspot.com/
I started using the ZapZyt 3 step acne pack a little over a week ago and it’s already improved my skin so much. My skin used to be oily and I had a lot of blackheads on my nose, it was only noticeable up close, but it still bugged me. I break out to a lot because I have sensitive skin and it didn’t break me out and seriously the day i started using it my skin looked so much better. Try that because a bar of soap doesn’t always clean your face right. Good luck finding something.
To treat the redness cause by acne you should use topical niacinamide. It would be best to use topical antibacterial like 2.5% benzoyl peroxide because it has fewer side effects.
