Try more natural products they have helped me so much and I'm 25 suffering from adult cystic acne with oily/combo sensitive skin and what works for me is a willow bark cleansing line called Alba botanica - I use their cleanser toner spot treatment n moisturizer during the day n at night I use Mario badescu acne cleanser n a witch hazel toner n tea tree oil moisturizer from the body shop their blemish healing lotion then I exfoliate 1-2 times per week with the Alba scrub or Mario badescu glycolic foaming cleanser and 1-2 times a week I rotate between a sulfur mask n healing mask also by Mario badescu its a lot of work n maintainence for skin n care but consistency is key - make sure you wash your face twice a day n keep a healthy diet with plenty veggies n fruits n water also exercise regularly will also help but be sure to clean off all makeup before you exercise n wash your face afterwards everyone's acne is different but this has worked for me hope it helps you too!

Did you try the oil cleansing method? Watch pinksofoxy on YouTube. She has a couple of videos of how she got rid of her acne. Also instead of trying honey and lemon use raw honey, cinnamon and nutmeg. Try that a couple of days and see how it works.

Also it probably is your hormones and diet. After watching her videos I really noticed how sugar does make me break out. Hope this helps.

Right on Jessica D!! That was my problem too a few years ago...consuming way too much sugar and dairy (cows milk). Once I switched up diet...my skin cleared up big time.

This is simple and it has helped me a lot! You need to exfoliate your skin daily, best way is one part honey and one part sugar. After exfoliating put on unrefined, extra virgin Coconut oil to moisturize. This is anti fungal, anti microbial, and anti bacterial so it will not cause the skin to break out. If you have oily skin you probably think oil will only make it more oily, but in fact, coconut oil troops your brain to believe your skin is producing too much natural oil and in return will stop over processing oil and make it even. Of course drink plenty of water, eat fruits and veggies. Raw when possible, and avoid meat. Be sure to take daily vitamins!! I promise you will see results!

I can't stress enough how great PanOxyl is. Always wash your face twice. The first wash gets rid of oil, makeup, dirt. The second wash penetrates the pores and clears them out. Read reviews of it online. Great product.

Buy the St. Ives blemish clearing apricot scrub - I struggled with acne for soooo long after trying everything from the doctors and this works wonders :)
