Acne Problems 15 year old girl?
So I have tried a few products over the years.
1. Clean and Clear- Only got rid of blackheads so I stopped using it. (used it for 6 months)
2. Oxy cleansing pads- Makes my face dry but clears some blackheads and some pimples. (used for over two years so far)
And
3.Neutrogena advanced solutions- Clears some pimples up but only was working the first two weeks or so. (used for two years so far)
I have been using the last two products each day for two months. And off and on before the two months for about two years. So both products whether together or not have not been getting my face fully clear. Probably doesn't help that I have been using face make-up for the last like seven years of my life.
Anyway I have looked around at other answers to questions similar to mine but haven't found anything that fits what I have. I think it is time to stop using all together and see what happens or find a better treatment plan.
Thing is, I do not know where to start. I am on a low budget to, so anything above like is going to piss my parents off. I have tried the home remedies and nothing works (normally makes it worse). I have continued using these products even though they aren't working 100% because my parents spend a lot of money on them and I don't want them to go to waste. Plus when I do not use them I get more acne.
And I get more acne when I get my period but I am full of pimples and no period O: haha so any advice or something I can try that will surely not be a waste of time or money?

I don’t buy any product since most doesn’t work at ALL.
These masks can get rid of blackheads and acne, oily skin, and dry skin.
Make your own face mask and exfoliater.
Before you do a mask or exfoliater, press hot water or lukewarm water against your face with a wash cloth for a minute to moisturize before your masks.
Here is an exfoliater:
Mix 2 teaspoons of baking soda with a few drops of warm water. Massage the paste over your face and rinse with warm water over the sink. Do this at least twice every week. Now here are some face masks:
Oatmeal-Yogurt Mask for OILY SKIN- Mix 2 tablespoons of uncooked oatmeal and 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt.
Honey-Oatmeal Mask for DRY SKIN- Mix 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of uncooked oatmeal.
Yogurt-Cucumber Mask for SENSITIVE SKIN- Puree 2 tablespoons of yogurt with 1/4 cup of peeled and sliced cucumber. Use a cotton ball to pat the mask onto your face and rinse with cool water.
Only rub these masks and exfoliaters on twice a week, for if more, it will ruin your skin. Make sure you GENTLY pat on the masks too.
To get rid of acne and blackheads also do this:
Stay hydrated!
Don’t touch your skin a lot.
Wash your face every morning with soap and water.
Don’t pick at your zits, it will leave scars.
Wash your pillow case often about once a week.
At night, put toothpaste on your zit and leave it on the whole night. Wash it off in the morning.

I went to my dermatologist for my acne. He gave me two creams that work great! He gave me a cream for the morning called Acanya, and a cream called Atralin to use at bedtime. He also prescribed me a cream called Cloderm for my elbows. The creams work great! I suggest you talk to your doctor about the creams i named. They are each only $25, and trust me your acne goes completely away in about 3 weeks! Hope I helped :))
