Try facial cleansing pads wiith tea tree oil. They'll dry the hell out of your face.

After fitness, I go with friends for lunch before go home for shower...do I have to hit shower right away after fitness?

I only eat greasy food every Sat at streakhouse where I gather around with friends. Everyday I use diet foods. Pillow? I think I better wash it every biweekly. Thanks for advice.

Oh btw I am 27.

accutane works if you can find a doctor who will give it to you.

it DOES work. its impossible for it not to.

Im 24 and I still struggle with acne; it recently just got worse when I moved to a drier climate.

Everyone is going to have miracle cures and stoires to help.

*only Ive found that none of them work for me. Everyjuans skin is different, go to a dermatologist, theyre doctors who specialize in the problems youve been experiencing. Again, what works for one person, may not work for the next; I can just tell you that Ive been struggling myself, and no home remedy has helped.

ProActive helped very slightly for me. But go to a dermatologist to get help for yourself; after all, its your FACE your dealing with.

ps:

dont go on acutaine!

dont listen to any of the posters. i went on acutane for 3 months an i have had crystal clear skin for the last two years.

dont waste your money on anti-biotics, which are just temporary fixes. dont waste your money on crap like proactive. they just apply topically on the skin and do not address the underlying reason why you have over-active sebaceous glands.

go to the doctor, ask about acutane. its a miracle cure that lastd a lifetime.
