ive tried the neutrogena with salicylic hydrating acne treatment and the clerasil one they just dry the acne up and it says PREVENTS ACNe i dont c that it just drys them up and gets rid of them but what prevents the acne??

  1. I have mild acne and right now I’m using neutrogena Clear pore daily scrub in the morning and neutrogena blackhead eliminating daily scrub at night. The products are definitely helping, if you wanted to cover up your acne with make up i would suggest using neutrogena products also, they clean you face while you wear them and wont clog your pores. Another thing, keep from touching your face a lot, along with your hair, and make sure you wash your face. I also have sensitive skin, I’ve been through countless products that have dried up my face, these products haven’t dried my face but I use a face lotion anyways, it’s called Olay complete, it doesn’t clog your pores and it’s also spf 15. Oh! That’s another thing, the sun can also contribute to your acne, so make sure you protect your face from the sun, try to find a lotion that has SPF because when you wash your face it can make your skin more prone to being sun burnt. Hope this helped, if you have any questions about the make-up or products just comment and I’ll get back to you on that.
    Good luck!

  2. I have moderate acne, and have from a fairly young age. I have tried almost anything on the market, from scrubs and cleansers, to clearing lotions and toners, to spot treatments and facial masks. Finally I went to the doctor about it, considering many products irritated my sensitive skin, and nothing showed signs of significant improvement. Even Proactiv, the "Number 1 Selling Acne System In America", as I quote, did not work for me. I talked to my doctor, and got a prescription called Benzaclin. At first it was slightly drying and made me a little bit sensitive to the sun, but my skin adjusted very quickly to this. It made the world of a difference and I still use it twice a day. Hope this helps :)
