I'm so tired of the acne I'm going through. I had a clean face for about three weeks them all of sudden boom boom everywhere. I mostly get them around my jawline, and cheeks.I was washing my face with a acne cleanser and now have patchy flaky dry skin. Frustrated. Any remedies?

You get them on your jawline and cheeks? hm What's your sleeping position? well sometimes we get the bacterias from our pillow cases right? The oils from our hair transfers to our skin so it breaks us out. Or have you read about the thing about the areas where your acnes are tells you what uhm sickness or whtever you have. Like when you have them on your chin, its most likely hormonal imbalance and stuff. :)

Christine I've heard that too that jaw and chin acne is hormonal I also suffered with acne for like two years and I know how bad it sucks. But anyways what I use is a sulfur soap called Grisi I will include a picture of it so you can search for it if you are interested in buying it. It worked great for me did what no other product could accomplish. It cleared my face up and prevented new zits. The downside is that it's kinda strong so if you have very sensitive you need to be very careful. The way I use it is by lathering soap and leaving it on my face as a mask for about 5-10 minutes depending on the condition of my face. However in your case watch out and only do like 2 or 3 minutes to make sure it doesn't burn your

@ noelia my skin has been really sensitive these days don't know why. I have oily skin all over and it's a bit weird. How can I get rid of the dry patches I have? Lol sorry I ask to many questions.

You could mosistourize to get rid of dry patches use something that won't clog pores (Noncomedogenic). I use the Grisi bar soap and it doesn't feel too strong for me also it has lanolin which is good for like sensitive skin. You should give it a try and see if it works for you. And no problem about asking too many questions I am glad I can help. I know how bad acne sucks and am glad I could share my beauty tips with you 👍😀😄

Lol I mean to say that I use the Grisi soap every day and its not too strong for me. But just leave it on for like 2-3 minutes only leave it as a mask for 10 or 8 minutes maybe once a week.

On the first week that you do try it do not leave it on for more than 3-5 minutes trust me it will burn you it has happens to me and it totally sucked. Just use it with caution and you should be good. ;)

Hi I'm a cosmetologist! it sounds like the products you recently started using are too strong for you. try using a gentle cleanser like cold cream or cetaphil, use a toner only on the areas you get oily (I'm assuming its your t-zone), and then finish with an oil free moisturizer all over your face. if it still feels a little dry you might need to use a non oil free moisturizer just in those dry areas.
our bodies constantly change so you might not have been so sensitive before to some products but it really sounds like you are now. it happens and its normal, so just adapt to your new skin type. good luck!
