Okay guys, don't judge! I've been breaking out terribly for months now. I've always had relatively nice skin and have tried so many products to try and help this! Please let me know anything that works fast and efficiently for you!
* I have dry and not very sensitive skin if that info helps :-)

Try proactive. I was hesitant about it a first just because of all the hype and the commercials, but it actually works. I've been using it for like 3 months now and I rarely get pimples. Try to avoid getting it from them online though because the will charge you out the ass every month.

Proactive never worked for me, it seriously didn't even go into my skin. If it's really something you want to get rid of, go to a dermatologist who could recommend antibiotics. It was well worth it.

Don't try anything till you see a derma haha, because proactive works for some and makes it worse for others!

Just wash your face every day, moisturize, and exfoliate a few days a week (1-2 days a week) do this until you are able to see a doctor or dermatologist for help if it is really serious.

I would try something with benzoyl peroxide (neutrogena has a few products). I don't know if you've tried it all ready but the main ingredients in a lot of acne products is sacylic acid, and I know that products with that never work for me. Just be sure to always moisturize after, as it can be a bit drying. Hope I helped!

Have you tried benzoyl peroxide? It works wonders for me! It completely clears my face very quickly. It dries up acne and it is very effective! Choose a product/s that consists of benzoyl peroxide...also, don't touch your face too much...which causes bacteria to spread. Drink lots of water as well. Keep your system clean and eat well! It truly works!
