I think the first step you should take is water. drink plenty of water because that has always helped me. water cleanses your body and skin of toxins. that should be your go-to medicine. water will help tremendously

I am struggling with acne right now also, Still can't find the right medication ): Hopefully my clarisonic would work! A lot of people swears of it. But try to stay away from powders or foundation or anything that touches your skin, it will clog up your pores!

I have the same problem as you! I've been dealing with problematic skin for so long and hardly any drugstore products work. Have you seen a dermatologist? You can get your family doctor to refer you. I would highly recommend that. Have you tried the Clinique clay mask for acne? I believe the full name is Clinique acne solutions oil control cleansing mask. It's very good for drying out pimples.

To get rid of acne, benzoyl peroxide is your best bet. It is by far the most researched and best working ingredient for fighting acne and getting rid of pimples, it works by drying them out and killing the bacteria.
Find a cleanser and toner with benzoyl peroxide in it, and use it twice a day. This will help you keep your skin free of bacteria to prevent acne while working to fight it aswell. It will dry out your skin though so make sure you find a good oil free moisturizer to replenish your skins nutrients and avoid excess oil production, which may clog your pores and counteract the acne fighting agents you're using.
Tea tree oil is an absolutely amazing acne fighter, and I love using it as a spot treatment. I suggest getting an actual tea tree oil spot treatment as apposed to just using the oil because it has other ingredients which will help it be more effective. I love grease lightning by the body shop! Using this after your toner and before your moisturizer is great to speed up the process in getting rid of acne.
You can also be sure to keep your hair out of your face and keep it clean, the grease from your hair can sometimes clog your pores.
Make sure you're using oil free makeup, or even better mineral powder only, and clean your brushes in between uses.
Basically just keep everything clean!
I would also suggest trying RED LIGHT, if you'd like more info on it.

I was struggling with acne really bad for a long time, and still have terrible scars. I changed my diet, stopped eating gluten and dairy and it helped SO much. I would recommend drinking a ton of water, and I have been having the most luck with my Yes To Tomato products they really have helped. And I would use tea tree oil as a spot treatment that deffiently helps mine! Best of luck, xo

I use neutrogena and simple products they work really well. I also was my brushes like every 2 weeks and I drink lots of water, try not to eat a lot of candy, fast food, and junk food. I used to have bad acne too and now my skin is really good.
