Hey ladies,
Over the past few months or so my face has been significantly broken out. Honestly, it seems like almost every day I have a new pimple. It's concentrated mostly on my chin area, but occasionally there will be one bear my nose or on my cheeks or forehead. I currently use the Mary Kay Timewise 3 in 1 face wash and I love it. I don't want to believe that that's what is making me break out, if that's the cause.

About a month & a half ago, I purchased the Clarisonic Mia 2 and I know when you first use it, it "purges" the bad skin and reveals a fresher face, but I just haven't seen that yet. My face feels amazingly clean, but the acne would suggest otherwise. I don't think the Clarisonic would still be purging bad skin after almost 2 months, or would it?

Anyway, I tried using the Mary Kay acne cleansing toner and that did nothing, and I don't want to branch out too much because I know too many different products can work against each other, but I don't know what to do. I'm almost 22 and I feel like I look like a high schooler. Makeup covers it fairly well but it's still embarrassing. Are there ANY miracle products that you'd suggest? I've been using Mario Badescu's drying cream for a few days and I like it but I feel like it's not working quickly enough. Thoughts?

The facewash that I use is Loreals go 360, I got it at Walmart for like 5$ and also I use Queen Helenes mint julep mask once a week and that has helped me a lot too, and it was like $6 I think.

I've tried the l'oreal stuff and it was okay. I still have some leftover from when I bought it. What exactly is the mint julep mask? It helps clear up acne?
