PLEASE HELP! I need to get rid of my acne. Fast!?
Im a teenager and I know its all normal to have acne, but its got out of control. I dont know if I have sensitive skin or not but I have alot of blackheads, acne scars and I have huge pores. Also I have really greasy skin. I touch my face alot to wipe off the grease. I also haven't been getting alot of sleep because of school and I dont eat that healthy, but im not fat. I wash my face once a day and my face wash is biore. The moisturizer is also biore it says oil free but it makes my face really shiny after I put it on. Anyway, recently my face has gotten really ugly and there is a guy so I just need some help will my acne, please dont say take medication or go to a doctor cuz my mom thinks i dont need to. I just need something to keep it under control.

1) Avoid touching your face. The grease from your hands will only make it worse.
2) Try washing your face twice a day with soap. That helps get rid of the grease.
3) Change your diet — although it’s not the absolute most important.
4) Use a lotion or cream that is specifically intended for your face.

you can get a kit like proactive or Clearasil maybe you should eat healthier that helped me a lot!!! and to wipe off the oil get oil wipes because touching your face with dirty hands = more pimples. if you want to go to a doctor go to your pediatrician and they can recommend you to a dermatologist.

NO LEMON JUICE!! lol that one’s a myth and it’ll just make ur face sting. I had bad acne too! My skin is sooo much clearer after a couple weeks! The only thing that worked for me was this bar of soap called black soap. Make sure you get the medicated one! Im only 17 and i feel so much more confident about my skin!!! I found it in my local beauty supply store. It works well for me and i have sensitive skin! Hope it works for you!!!

Watch this video for your scars:

You can find so many facials and skin tips by watching SecretLifeofaBioNerd on Youtube. Trust me, she’s great.
And, i dont want to lecture you, but stop eating so bad, get more sleep and drink lots of water!! Also, touching your face increase acne. As for the grease, I read that you shouldnt be applying thick, heavy or oily moisturizers. Aloe vera draws out oil. My friends complain that it leaves a filmy feel on your skin, but if you spread it out and rub it in, then that wont be an issue.
I hope your skin clears up!

Neutrogena clear pore mask and blackhead scrub work well for me. Not perfect, but well. I alternate between the two..usually the scrub in the morning time and the mask at night. Try to leave the mask on for like 20 minutes instead of 10, it helps absorb more of the oil. Oh, and also try not to touch your face a lot and use oil blotting sheets during the day…neutrogena sells that as well…i think.
I still have scars left over..so I have been using mederma on them…so far it has not worked, but it does take a lot of time.

I’ve been using kojic acid soap on my face and since then haven’t got a pimple. Nothing else worked for me.
