Pimples under the skin?? HELP.?

I know what a lot of people consider to be acne is not what I am experiencing... I am not talking a couple whiteheads or a small cluster of red bumps on my chin (OMG total freakout & call it "severe" acne..) I have been breaking out on my cheeks with deep pimples, or shall I say dark red lumps, under the skin. They are painful at times because of all the pressure I assume. Its like the bacteria cant escape and just infects my under layer of skin! I have been using Cliniques acne solution for about a week and a half, and all I see is DRY SKIN! How does a topical treatment like this prove effective when I feel like the stuff can't even penetrate the thick scar tissue on top of the blemishes and get to the infection??? Any recommendations from people with this type of acne? Any body experience GETTING RID OF IT?!? I would appreciate any help... This is getting ridiculous.

natural treatments and remedies for acne?

I have combination skin(oily and dry) and i would say my skin is mediocre. I don't have bad skin, but it's not perfectly clear of blemishes, either. I've noticed i tend to breakout more when i'm menstruating or when i eat greasy and oily foods(mayonnaise or peanut butter or sometimes too much chocolate). I use Neutrogena oil free daily scrub and blackhead eliminating scrub and those work for me. However, what are natural remedies to make my skin even better? Does rice water really help, and does it have to be organic or can it be normal rice?

blemish & blackhead problem, any suggestion?

I've always suffered from bad blemishes and blackheads so i've trying to clean my face more. my daily regimen consists of washing my face in the morning with st. ives blemish & blackhead control, then I wash it again at night with clean&clear blackhead control. Is that too much? So far, it's working really well with keeping my face smooth and acne free. It's lessening my blackheads, but my blemish is still there. Can anyone help me with my problem? Also, does anyone have any good suggestions for make up that covers blemishes really well?

Murad is it effective..?

k well i'm fourteen years old and i have horrible skin. I was on sephora.com and I typed in blemishes/acne and the first thing that came up was a treatment called Murad. All of the comments were nice and all but I really want to know if its worth the money. I also want to know how long does it last and how long does it take to work. Also if it will help improve the texture and color of my skin. My skin is not sensitive so it usually doesn't dry out. Thanks for the help(; give me your honest opinion on this product. Also any recommendations (not proactive! hate it!) xoxo

What will my skin look like (after my acne)?

i had mild acne for 2 years. Now it is alot better with just a few whiteheads, blackheads, and, like, 2 pimples. If my skin clears up from the antibiotics in 6 months, what will it look like 6 months after that? Acne scars (i somtimes pop blemishes! oops!)? un-even skintone?

is there any OTC anti-biotic to take for acne?

my face cleared up when I was on penicillin and no topical treatments have ever worked so I'm really excited that I've found something that finally did work, but my parents don't think my skin is bad enough to have to take me to a dermatologist. I guess it's not that bad, it could be a lot worse, but I hate feeling like I have to put on a mask of makeup everyday to cover up blemishes...
