What kind of acne?

I use Body Shop facial cleanser & toner, and then I use Clear Action Acne Medication that you can find at a drugstore. Also, sometimes I get red dots and marks (I don't know how else to describe them) and I use Benadryl Itch Relief cream (even though it isn't itchy) and it really helps.
I hope I helped! Good luck! 😊

Try finipil! It's more made for soothing and healing skin but I tried it on my acne and it really really helped!

I usually use rubbing alcohol. I can't stand the smell but it usually does the trick.

I don't know what kind of acne I have. How can you tell..? And thanks! :) and I heard rubbing alcohol is bad for your skin because it dries your skin out plus I tried it before and my mom picks my face so it tends to burn plus I try telling her to stop but she won't because she's hard headed plus I'm scared of her so I'm not getting in I fight over this with her... :P.

Proactiv has helped me more than anything. They have great deals when you buy the kits online and it's sooo worth the money!

I've already tried it and it doesn't help with my mom picking my face.. It just burns and makes it a rash..

Be honest with your mom; tell her it's your face and you don't like the picking, and that it's obviously not helping. Be calm and respectful! Use Cetaphil wash and a basic moisturizer. Use tea tree oil on the zits to dry them out. If it doesn't get better after about 3 weeks, go see your doc (doesn't have to be a dermatologist) and ask for something to help. He will either give you a medicated face wash, a topical gel, or antibiotics. If all else fails, Accutane will do the trick, although it should be your last resort.

I've had acne since 6th grade. I know how it is, I've tried EVERYTHING! I started using Lemon juice. Squeeze it freshly then I wash my face & rub it all over my face with a makeup sponge. It not only gets ride of my acne after a while I noticed a huge differents on my scars! Just make sure you use a oil free mostrizer! Every day or else your face will become very dry! I hope things work
Out for you doll (:

I've also tried a lot, and I use baking soda. I wet my face, put some in my hand, mix it with SOME water, and scrub everywhere! It's done a better job than anything I've used.

Doesn't that bleach your face? Because I use baking soda on my teeth when I want them whiter...
