How can I clear my skin?
I have a serious oil and shine problem, not to mention the fact that my nose is a blackhead magent and i am constantly breaking out on my forehead chin and back (yuuckk). I have used ProActiv, Zapzit, Oxy, Clean and Clear, the Wave(which sucks!), and pretty much everything else in the pharmacies.
My skin is always shiny and gross, and I really just want a semimatte look. My parents refuse to let me wear makeup(and I am 15!) so i need an acne medication that really works.
Please help, I hate looking like I have the chicken pox or something. I am so sick of having bad skin.
Tell me whatever works, whether its home remedies, skin treatments, acne medications, whatever.
Also- I eat really healthy (because my parents are crazy vegans there isnt a lot of bad food around) and i drink more than 8 glasses of water daily. I excersize, wash my face 3 times a day, everything everyone tells me to do.
Help!!!

well the good thing is that your face still has its natural oils….ok i have a friend named ylana whose mom works for mary kay…they have these little pad like things,(they feel like a plastic table cloth to be honest.) but they’re like oil suckers! you wipe them all over your face and it takes the oil clean off.

P.S. they only cost 5 bucks for a pack of 75 sheets!!! major ownage!!

I had the same problem!!!!
I finally found something that works!!!
At the Relashe spa at any Gaylord hotel, their pimple and zit treatment it the BEST!!!
The reason why it works is because it has a bleach base that will dry out your pimples!!!
start with the wash, then the spot treatment is the BEST…..and soo your face doesn’t hae dry skin but not oily, use the after lotion!!!

what you have is strange skin, i use the wave and clean and clear products and my skins fine. from everything you say your skin should be perfect. i think you should see a dermatologists-skin doctor, you could have a skin disease.
oh but something to try is tooth paste on you "problem spots" leave it on all and wash off in the morning. (Fergie does this).

ugh i know how u feel….pimples drive me absolutely nuts!!! well one product that im ordering soon called the Murad Acne Complex, it has many good reviews and its a good price for a 30 day trial kit. Check out the website by googling "Murad Acne Complex" it appears to be a good medication
or you could visit a dermatologist and get something prescribed.

i myself have suffered from acne and i have to say the only thing i found to actually help me is egg yolks. i found an article in a newspaper and thought it can’t hurt to try. take the yolk apply it as a mask, you use it for a month straight (daily) and your skin will clear up. i was very skeptical, but it really worked. the only thing is it doesn’t smell the best and takes a while to wash it off but its way worth it. once clear use it when ever you have a flare up. but i have not had to do it again, now i get compliments on how clear my skin is. hope this helps
