I have acne all over my forehead, and it looks like I have the measels.
:/
I haven’t tried everything.
The only thing I really do is put alchohol on them when i get them.
I can’t buy Proactive. And I CAN’T convince my mom to buy it for me. (I’ve already tried)
So, is there anything else I could do?
Or is there a product that’s availible in like..Wal mart or Target or something that works fast!
Thankss.

Acne diet
Avoid all rich foods, excessive amounts of sugar, and particularly chocolate and nuts. Choose a plain, well balanced diet containing plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink water and fruit juices, but avoids highly sweetened drinks. Extra vitamin A tablets should be added to the diet.
Try to sleep at least eight hours every night. Avoid all strains, and follow the principles of good health, as these are essential for health.
There are many natural home remedies for acne that we have in our kitchen or we can get from the health food store. These are not very expensive.
All-fruit Acne diet
To begin with, the patient should take only an ‘all-fruit’ diet for a week, taking three meals a day, of fresh juicy fruits, such as apples, pears, grapes, grapefruit, pineapples, and peaches. Only unsweetened lemon or plain water, either hot or cold, should be drunk and nothing else.
Well-balanced Acne diet
After the one-week, all-fruit diet, the patient can gradually adopt a well-balanced diet with emphasis on raw foods, especially fresh fruit and vegetables, sprouted seeds, raw nuts, and wholegrain cereals, particularly millet and brown rice. Further short periods of the ‘all-fruit’ diet for three days or so may be necessary at a monthly interval till the skin’s condition improves.
Avoid strong tea/coffee, soft drinks and processed foods
Meats, sugar, strong tea or coffee, condiments, pickles, soft drinks, candies, ice cream, refined and processed foods should be avoided as far as possible.
sorry if it’s a bit long!!
Try products with 10% benzoyl peroxide like Oxy 10 or Clearasil.

Acne can be embarrassing at the best of times. I would try going into a site called Epinions.com and find out what users are saying about various products. Good hygene which involves regular bathing helps a lot. Good internal health is a major contributor to healthy skin. Try and stay away from the junk foods. I’ve also had good luck with a product called Acnezine. Try this source I found for more help: Good Luck http://www.acne-scar-removal-treatments.…
