What's the best acne treatment for a 14 year old girl?



I know it all depends but what works/worked best for you when you were 14 or 15 yrs.old??
and something DIFFERENT because ive used clinque, avon, and all of those fancy kinds from the commercials. so can you tell me something thats never heard of but good!
btw i have gone to the dermatologist and it made my face worse! and wasted 70 dollars each for 2 tiny little bottles.

  1. My sister is fourteen and im nineteen i have tried a very good dermatologist Medicare and it really works but i have forgot what its called but try neutrogena ; ) ps….. go harvard also PROATIVE TRULY DOES NOT WORK IT MADE ME BREAK OUT AND GO TO THE DOC`S

  2. Go to acne.org, they have the ABSOLUTE BEST PRODUCTS and are very cheap and effective.

  3. Find an Avon representative and ask them. Try the silver professional ones. they have acne fighting lotion so if you have dry skin, or if your skin gets dry from your face wash then you can moisturize without having to worry about breaking out.
    that’s what I do and it works great.

  4. Honestly, I suggest watching the YouTube video titled "The Secret to Clear Skin." It is 15 minutes, and it is loaded with amazing tips. The author has other helpful beauty related tips too.

  5. i use clean and clear

  6. This routine strangely worked for me. Maybe it’s the combonation of these products, but I won’t question. Wash your face with a mix of Burt’s Bee’s Soap Bark and Chamomile Deep Cleansing cream with Clean and Clear Pore Cleanser. Then , moisturize with the Clean and Clear pore moiturizer. Take the Clean and Clear Persa 10 gel and apply it on spots. By the way, by no means am I advocating Clean and Clear, it’s just what works for me. :)

    PS always apply sunscreen… acne gets aggrevated by sun.

  7. i really recommend the neutrogena deep clean. in the first two days, your face will hurt a bit, and you are gonna get more pimples because the soap is getting all of the impurities out of your face. im 14 too. i had acne. it has been about 2 months since i used it and it is amazing. now i don’t have a single pimple. my face is flawless. i washed my face at morning and then applied astringent. at night, i washed my face, applied astringent and applied either aloe gel or an oil free face moisturizer. it is a miracle. also, you can use neutrogena’s on the spot. it is a medicine for your pimples, you can apply it up to three times a day. the good thing about it is that it works super fast and your face wont burn. i also tried some other face washes that my dermatologist recommended but neutrogena deep clean has been the face wash i’ve ever used. hope it helped :). just try it out, it will work! but you do need patience. about a month or two maybe?

  8. honestly the best there is, is called paulas choice. you have to order it online though.

  9. Try going to a dermatologist. Clearly the ones that you have used are not powerful enough, and the same ingredients that target acne are basically the same in every product. I don’t believe that you will has success with another over the counter product. You may need a prescription to truly diminish your acne. My brother had horrible acne when he was your age, but went to a dermatologist, and it cleared up. However, if seeing a dermatologist is not an option, try clearasil. It is drying so you will want to use an oil free moisturizer with it, but it has 2% salicylic acid, which fights acne. Make sure that you wash your face twice daily, wash it right after you workout, and don’t use any make up with oil in it. Oh, and change your pillow case often to remove the oil that builds up there from your face and hair.
    Hope I helped, and good luck with your acne troubles! I hope you take my advice! :)

  10. I PROMISE the proactive is magic!!! im 15 and my acne wasnt awful but still bad enough where it needed to stop. I SWARE that if you use it constantly you will have clear skin! i really hope you try it! i has seriously changed my life :)

  11. Do you wear make up? Like foundation and cover up? Cause that’s the worst! I know it sounds stupid but stop wearing face makeup. I stopped for 2 weeks and my face was improving and I haven’t worn foundation since. My face is almost cleared up and looks great.

    Clean&clear dual action moisturizer hydratant double action is what I use and it works great for me.
    I tried proactive a while ago and it didn’t do much for my skin.

    It all depends on your skin type. Like they say, acne is genetic.

  12. Pan Oxyl Wash – 5% Benzoyl Peroxide.
    I’ve used it for a month now, and I barely have any pimples using it. It’s
    quite expensive, $30 but totally worth getting though!

    Benzoyl Peroxide is the best ingredient getting rid of acne. As told by Dr. Oz (seen that show?)
