Is Retinol safe for younger skin?
I bought the Philosophy On a Clear Day Acne system. It includes a foam face wash, acne cream, spot treatment, And a retinol lotion.
I heard Retinol is bad for teens though (im 17) and it causes redness. I already struggle with redness. will this make my acne worse or should I just skip the retinol?
Also, If you have used this skin care system, Did it help clear your acne?

How do I get rid of my acne?
I don't have very bad acne - mostly just blackheads on my cheeks, forehead, nose, and sometimes chin. I'm allergic to Clearasil Ultra Acne Cream; it reddens my acne and makes it stand out more. Clearasil Daily Face Wash doesn't seem to have any effect, nor does Proactiv Sulfur Face Mask (or whatever it's called). An oxygenating cleanser from a skin care specialist doesn't do anything either. The skin on my face is kind of dry. So should I try Neutrogena or Proactiv or see a dermatologist or what? (Also, I've tried Visine to cover up the acne as suggested by magazines but it doesn't work either.) I'm a 13 year old girl by the way.
How do you get rid of a breakout on your chest?
I've been breaking out [getting lots of pimples] on my chest. It's kinda gross, no, really gross. :[
I don't know what I've done to cause them to occur, I don't know, puberty? They've appeared on my chest about 2 years ago, when I was about 14 and a half, and I still have them. I put acne medication on them [clearasil vanishing acne cream], and I always drink water, I don't wear tight clothing that would cause sweat/drt/bacteria to remain on my chest after working out during tennis/working out in general.
What's the best way to get rid of this chest acne, at least, for me, I want to have it all gone by spring break, this year, which is in mid-March, meaning, I want to get rid of my chest acne in at least 6 weeks, or a slightly longer.
I also have very mild breakouts on my face, mostly on my cheeks lately, sometimes where the acne occurs--my skin feels itchy and I want to scratch it or use my jacket or sleeve to wipe it, but I don't touch it. What can I do to prevent the mild breakouts?
I have scars on my chest, because I used to pick at the pimples on my chest when they first occured, but I havent picked on it since like the beginning of last year.
Is it just being a teenager, still? How long will acne take to stop occuring so often? My brother had it bad when he was my age, [14-19], but now he is 21, and he has almost no visible acne. He uses no acne products.
Is this still just that teen phase thing, acne?
I know acne will never permanently disappear, no matter what age, but I'd just like to get it off my chest [literally, pun intended], and reduce mild breakouts.
Thanks much!
I'm not looking for any smart answers, miss love</3.

How to stop chest acne?
Acne on my chest is starting to break out.. I don't have any acne on my face or any other part of my body besides chest/acne. I think most of it happens because I play alot of sports and I guess the sweat is unhealthy? The acne isn't that bad but I have alot of little red small pimples on it and it seems like they never go away. I occasionally use some type of acne cream on, I use alcohol on some cotton strips on it, etc. Please help

Going to dermatologist next week, best treatment plan for acne?
I've had acne since I was about 11 or 12 years old and now at 23, it's not much better. I've tried over the counter face washes, acne cream, moisturizers, etc. and none of them work. Sometimes my face will be almost clear for a few weeks, then I get 10 zits at once...mostly on my chin and cheeks. I get more around my time of the month, like a lot of women, but I get a new one almost every 1-2 days.
What type of acne medication do you suggest?
