Drinking water only can not solve the problem…
You need a more thorough treatment. I suggest you start with these steps:
1. Avoid oil-based products such as facial lotions, wash and cosmetics. Look for products that are “non-comedogenic,” it means it will not clog your pores.
2. Do not wear tight headband, baseball hat, and/or helmet when you exercise or play sports, and make sure you wash the sweat-soaked things each time you wear them.
3. Keep the skin hydrated and moist so your cells can function properly. Moisturize your face with mild, non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep it hydrated. Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face after cleansing.
4. Cleanse your pores with an alcohol-free toner or skin conditioner on cotton balls. Do not try to scrub harshly or you will strip and damage your skin. Even after rinsing your face, if you do not remove the remainder of cleanser and loosened debris residues, you are only going to imbed that debris deeper into the pores as you layer serums and moisturizers on top. The absolute best way to perform this deep pore cleansing is with an alcohol-free toner or skin conditioner on cotton balls. There’s no need to harm your skin by vigorous scrubbing or harsh acids, simply wipe with toner damp cotton balls until the last cotton comes away perfectly white.
5. Astringents, Salicylic Acid, retinoic acids, and glycolic acids all work to prevent pores from clogging. Be aware of some active ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, these ingredients can cause major side effects.
For better results, I suggest you also fight your acne from inside, because hormonal problems could also be the worst cause of acne. And for this kind of treatment, please choose safe ingredients… herbals are the best.
Good luck!

I am a freshman, becoming a sophmore, and i suddenly, this year, have gotten major acne issues. Help! Do you recommend any Creams, Technices, ETC?

i have dry skin and i want a face wash thats a drugstore product that has very few chemicals in it or even all natural. thanks

im a 14 year old, and i have acne on my forehead, i need to treat it, but i dont want my parents or my friends to know about it, is there anything i can do to get rid of it? please answer accurately. and remember they cant know about it and im only 14.

The main reason is hormones because by the time you reach adulthood your hormones start to balance out. Also, many teens just do not know how to take care of their skin which only adds to the problem.

A) Wash my face night and day.
B) Nothing, it’ll go away.
C) Make-up!
D) Acne product(Proactiv, Clean and Clear, etc.)
E) Other___________
Thanks, I really need some help getting rid of some of my acne!

i’m 17 i have noticed that some teens around my age either in my school or outside have clear skin, like as if they never had ance ever in their life. is it a genetic thing? or is it becuase they take care of their face really well?

*I would go with Sheercover. I have it and it works wonders. It doesn’t contain all of those chemicals like Talc that are harmful to your skin. It doesn’t feel cakey and honestly it just feels like you are not wearing any make-up and that it is your own skin!
hoped this helped

I’m concerned about my acne. I’m thirteen and I’ve had it for about three years now. There’s a lot of blackheads about probably about 10-15 zits on my face at a time if I’m having a breakout. I HATE my acne and I’m concerned I’m going to have to wear a lot of makeup next year in high school.
Will my acne EVER stop? My sister is almost twenty and she still has lots of acne. Hers is worse than mine though.
I am using a mild gel prescribed by my doctor called Stievamycin. It claims to clear out acne and prevent breakouts.
Here is a photo displaying my acne:http://i39.tinypic.com/15fszly.jpg

I just got Acne Free, and I was wondering if should be used on sensitive skin. Does it work for faces who only have a few pimples (1 or 2 pimples?) I also heard that Benzoyl-Peroxide (which is in Acne Free) really dries the face. If it does, does your face stay dry, or will the dryness go away?
Thanks.

I’m 14, and i’ve been using Proactive since June 2008, so about 3 months now, and i still have alot of acne. I wear cover up daily and eyeliner and stuff. I usually don’t wear my hair in my face or anything. My acne makes me really self conscious. I need help. Any suggestions?
