Hey guys. Okay so most of the time my face stays relatively clear with just a few blemishes and for that I'm grateful. But I've noticed that I tend to breakout all over when I'm about to start my period or when I have severe stress or anxiety. Is there a product that helps with my problem? I've tried normal acne washes and trying to wash my face more often when I know I'm about to start my cycle, but unfortunately it hasn't really been working. Is there a product specifically aimed toward hormonal breakouts? Please help if possible, thanks :)

Have you tried proactive, it works greatly for me and Most (not all) of my friends, its totally worth the money for clear skin.

Drink only water during that time, and use a stress face wash, or a face wash with calming properties, this works great.

I feel your pain. :/
This is an awesome spot treatment, especially for the ones under the skin.

I never had bad acne until after I had my daughter and my hormones flipped the switch on me. that being said, I use the Wal-Mart brand of proactiv...it works and is cost effective.
