ok i have the worst skin everrrr.
or so i think. well its worse than all my friends and im EXTREMELY self concise(sp?) of it. ive tried soo many different products to. all different kinds of scrubs, washes, stridex pad type things, black head stripes, moisturizers, and more. ive tried SO many different products from neutrogena, clean and clear, stridex, sea breeze, and sum crazy names i cant remember. ive never tried pro active, or differin. would you suggest any of those 2 or anything else for sum1 with many black heads on the nose, pimples and white heads on the "T" zone, and infected pimples on the chin, as well as pimples high on the forehead?

proactive is good. but it eventually stopped working for me for some reason.

well you should tryy pro-active. don't touch your face a lot because you can irritate them. if all these prducts arent working you can go to a dermatologist. they can help you by giving you cremes and maybe even pills.

gooodluck!

First of all. DON'T PICK!!!!!!!!

Second-- Ask your dermatologist if they do acne surgery. It is not really surgery. They use a tiny little pin (does not hurt) and poke your pimples-white heads-black heads- etc. and squeeze them out with a little utensil. IT DOES NOT HURT!!! I was so nervous when I went, and when you leave you will be a little red and irritated, but about 3-5 days later you will look amazing. I have already gone once, and I am going again on Thursday!!!! Good Luck.

basically just stop buying so much products because as you can see they are not working on you. so if it is bad acne go to your local dermatologist. he or she knows what is best for you. this will take maybe a week to get better like at home but try cleaning your face twice a day or more and never touch your hands while they have hair products or dirt/dirty stuff on them. and if you want to get rid of the redness try eyedrops that gets redness off your eye. try it on the pimple just with a Q-tip. if you want to dry the pimple try white tooth PASTE or night or lemons. if you want to try to reduce try wrapping an ice cube where the pimple is and hold it for like 10 or more minutes. remember to drink lots of water!!! and try to clean where your blackheads on your nose are with water cuz thats probably oil there so clean it atleast three times a day...hope i helped and good luck!!!

Some of my friend have the SAME problem. As weird as this sounds...DO IT, IT REALLY WORKS.

I SUGGEST THIS IS DONE IN A SMALL BOWL/CONTAINER.

Okay take about 4 or 5 regular asprins, Then crush it up, so its like powder. Next, take two or three tiny drops of water and drop it on the powdery asprin. Mix it together with a finger, spoon or toothpick and take it and rub it all on your forehead (and where you have pimples/zits/black heads). Keep the asprin on for about an hour (well until it drys and hardens) then wash off with warm water....or if you want in small areas just put a band-aid over the asprin, liquid...and leave it on over night!

TRY IT.

whoa... not so fast! First, when you change to a new skin regiment, it can take around 21 days to see a difference. And sometimes the issues get worse before they get better. Are you giving these products enough time?

Another mistake people commonly make is to use different product lines for their regimen. In other words, their cleanser might be product line A, the scrub, product line B, the toner, product line C and the moisturizer product line D. Product lines are made to work in harmony with each other.

I'm not a big fan of drug store products (clearasil, neutrogena, etc.).

Have you been to a dermatologist? That's their arena and they can get you on a antibiotic to help the skin on the "inside".

Well everybody has different types of skin, so I can't tell you for sure that one of those will work. I have tried Pro-Active, and personally I didn't like it. It just didn't mesh well with my skin. But then I have tried neutrogena, and I totally love it. I have heard of Pro-Active helping alot of other people, so just give it a try. And if it doesn't work, then just move on to another product. I know how tiring it can be to have to keep moving from one product to another, but you will find something that goes with your skin!
