ok proactive works… buttt once u stop using it u will break out bad. so if u going to get proactive yu have to be able to buy it every tyme it goes out

go to the doctors

I would highly recomend seeing a dermatologist. They are the people who can help you the most. In the mean time, buy a Netrogena cleanser. Wash your face three times a day, and once a day put on a benzoyl peroxide cream.

You should use accutane, it is the best about it you can get information from here

Try To Limit Your Sugar Intake. Especially Soda. It is really bad for your skin. Try going to Wal Mart* or something and look for (APRICOT SCRUB) its cheap and it works. i did it when i was your age and so did lots of my friends.

doctors can give you medications or some liquid that goes on your face, or you can try proactive, i really dont recommend any home remedies if you have a lot of pimple but if you only have 1 put tooth paste over night just a little bit.
wash your face day and night with neutrogena

wash ur face regularly with a good cleanser or atleast rinse with warm water and try to keep ur hair out of ur face. also always wash ur face after physical activity or sweating heavily

Just take a little baking soda/water paste or plain toothpaste (not gel or whitening toothpaste), dab it on your blemishes, leave it for fifteen to twenty minutes, then gently wash it off. Don’t try leaving it on overnight before you know how skin will react, though. Some find this treatment tingles or burns a bit, but if causes real pain, wash it off immediately because it can leave burn marks or even scars on some skin types.

there are two things that work pretty great for me..
which are nuetrogena grape-fruit face wash..
and clean and clear face wash.. its in a aqua colored bottle..it has to be the one in the aqua dqueeze bottle..not the dark blue bottle..
try it!

step 1:
open up your pimple

step 2:
get toothpaste that has mint in it and place it on each huge pimple

step 3:
it should burn. take band aids and place it on each toothpaste coated pimple

Step 4:
sleep with it on and don’t take it off ubtil the next day’s afternoon.

this should work

I have the same issue as you so you have my sympathy.
Whatever you do, don’t put loads of different creams and scrubs on it-it will make it worse. Avoid exfoliating scrubs until it has calmed down a lot as they irritate acne. I would say wash it at least twice a day with a non perfumed soap (simple maybe) keep that soap away from the shower/ tub as bacteria will grow on it if left in moist places. Go to your dermatologist-mine prescribed a good cream called Differin and i am also on tablets called Erythromicin. You may have to do this for weeks or months before you see a difference, but when you do its worth it, trust me.
It might be worth having a facial at a beauty parlour too, they can work wonders.
dont buy over-the-counter stuff-they dont work at all!
Ok i really hope i helped youu

for your natural plan drink a lot for water that’s the best way to fight your acne because it washes away all the toxin in your body…. and while you work with your body inside use this to work outside….i have the best solution for you i use clearasil ultra acne system, its the best thing ive found that works. i used proactive and no result you have to give clearasil a try you can’t expect it to work over night…. give it 2-3 weeks and you’ll the results for sure it you use it right it’ll go away in 3-4 weeks and it’s cheap which is really good…. good luck!! =D

umm
i wouldn’t try proactive.. my friends trys it and it gets rid of it then they come back once you stop using it
and you should use the strawberry mask it does work
ok
so if you dont want to use the strawberry mask
you should wash your face with warm (not hot) water with a towel
gently scrub your face with a cleanser (i reconmend netrogina wave) it helps stop it and helps oily skin or you can just use one of netroginas other cleansers!
and your welcome
