ugh acne help!!!?
March 27th, 2009Question: ugh acne help!!!?
i have acne for a year now and have tried everything from over the counter to proactive and im on some medication from the derm. But i have terrible hideous acne on my cheeks and next to my eyebrows its really red and looks very irritated even though i have done nothing to irritate it. i drink plenty of water and keep a balanced diet and even take multi vitamins and wash my face and use a moisturizer that my derm. gave me and i continue to break out each time i look in the mirror i gotta punch the surround and get angry knowing i am doing my best to keep my acne under control and its not working.

I had the same problem. Stop buying all the different washes and go to the doctor. They’ll subscribe you some acne treatment that works twice as good as the others you’ve ever tried. Mine went down right away! Good luck!
i feel bad for u.. i hate acne. when i brake out i flip. but i use clean and clear and then like an aloe lotion and it really helped mee.

try to use something that dries your pores and leves you with a dry and clean face and then use a hot-ish towel to wipe it off and top it off with a cold towel. or cold water. do this for a couple weeks and it should work. good luck.
help?

have you tried popping them? they might be ingrown hairs
I heard washing your face with warm salt water helps get rid of greasy skin
maybe that will help/
o gosh I had the same prob but for 4 years! I used and still use to this day nutrogina face wash oil free im acne free .. also drink a good ammont of water .. this over the course of time should work .. now it wont be instant results .. but it deff worked
Man I am sorry, but looks like you are trying everything you can do! I guess its your genes. Once again I am sorry
I had the SAME exact problem until my friend recommended Clean and Clear..it works a LOT better than proactive and it work reletively fast. My face was cleared up within a week
try either hibiclens(that IS how its spelled). you can get it over the counter at a pharmacy. its amazing. its something that doctors use before surgery or give to you to use on stitches and stuff. it kills all the bacteria. just wash your face with it one or two times a day.
or believe it or not what works is a benadryl extra strength itch relief stick. all you have to do is dont touch your face and apply it 3-4 times per day and before you go to bed. Its inexpensive and it really works!! you can get it for about $3 at any local drugstore or grocery store.
good luck! I hate acne.
Yeah that sucks. I have been trying everything and it isnt workig for me either. Let’s just hold out till our teenage years are over and hope for the best, huh?
Well you said you tried proactive, it didnt work for me either then I tried clinique (I know its a womens cosmetic line and all but), it works really well for me. thats the only thing I can suggest, if that doesnt work sorry. I hope you find a way to counter it!!
Never had really bad acne, but Cetaphil is amazing.
It’s around $10, but it really helps.
Good luck
Ugh..acne sucks..i went to the derm today and she gave me differin. You should ask for it because i already see my acne fading and i heard it works well. Only wash your face twice a day with SOAP, or a very gentle scrub with tiny beads. Products like clean & clear have harsh chemicals. Don’t stress or touch your face either.
i hope it gets better.
Acne is not always from dirt but make sure to keep your hair out of your face because oils from your hair are very bad and dry your face with a whit disposable cloth to make sure you dont have anything on your face. Like I said acne is not always from anything on your face, If you keep it clean, wash it 3 to 4 times a day, its probably from your hormones and you cant really help that, see your doctor.
Make sure that if you clean your skin with products with chemicals such as oxy clean to wash your face with water right after to wipe away the chemicals that do clean your face but if the chemicals seap in they will damage your skin!
oh im so sorry,it may sound realy old but try whitchazel,it worked for years before all these new lotions and potions(that prob contain the same stuff)came out! good luck!
it also contains a drying agent that will stop the grease accumulating.
try putting honey over all the pimples. it dries them out. i did that once and the next day they were gone… trust me it works
Use NEUTROGINA OIL FREE ACNE WASH, it works SO well. Ive been using it since I was ten, and I still am!! I wash my face with it twice a day, and it removes acne, zits, bumps, and u notice it when after u wash ur face with it, (instead of washing it right off, keep it on for 30 seconds!) And my frienz have complimented me on how they never see a bump on my face! It KEEPS face smooth and soft!
You can get it at like walmart for about $5.00!!!!(really cheap!)
