Help! I want to have clear skin! Any advice???

I've never had bad skin until my junior year in high school. I'm a second semester senior now and I still have the bad skin! I know it's not due to stress because I'm barely doing any work in school. Most of my breakouts are on my cheeks and forehead. I get little bumps instead of ones that are big and red! I think they're blackheads but I don't know how to get rid of them. My skin becomes dry very easily and perscriptions don't help. Any advice would be MUCH appreciated.

Old remedies that worked for me--benzoyl peroxide was too drying and left my skin really red and irritated--were sulfur and recorsinol (sp?). An old sulfur cream still on the market is Acnomel. (Sulfur is slightly drying and an noninflammatory so you never get big, red pimples). Salicylic acid (which is great at dissolving blackheads) is usually with resorcinol. Almay makes a tube of cover-up with these ingredients in at least three shades. It really covers well, too. Good luck! I know how you feel!
Reply:Proactiv works wonders. definitely try it out if you're willing to pay for it.
Reply:Neutrogena (how ever you spell it) oil free acne wash or use Clean %26amp; Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment.....which can be found at Wal-Mart. Less than $10

Reply:Heh,


Now, I wouldn't normally answer this type of question... however this past weekend my niece told me about something she does, that although sounds weird has amazing results. Give it a try... it can't hurt.





Pour a tablespoon of sugar into your palm, then add some Lemon juice, mix into paste, apply to face / hands, rub in.


It will feel rough (exfoliating) work in, until you feel quite sticky, then rinse off. Your skin will feel amazingly smooth (like a baby's butt) and it will be super clean.
