What's your favorite Neutrogena skin product?

I mean such as face washes, scrubs, masks, spot treatments, etc.

I use their body wash for my back, my chest, and sometimes my shoulders, and it works rather well.

I'm thinking about buying the Oil-Free Acne Wash 60 Second Mask Scrub, On-the-Spot Acne Treatment, and the Oil-Free Anti-Acne Moisturizer, but that's some money to pay. I wanted to know your opinion on Neutrogena products, or other products that are affordable and are available at stores such as Target, Walgreens, and Wal-Mart.

I usually get acne between my eyebrows, my chin, under my nose, and on my cheeks. Not really "acne", but zits here and there. It's usually my fault because I pop my zits all the time and it makes my skin look terrible. My skin will clear up, but then one zit will appear and it's downhill from there.

Answers are appreciated, thanks. :]

ABSOLUTE BEST FOUNDATION OUT THERE HELP HELP HELP HELP?

Okay so I've tried every single foundation and brand out there and most of the time I either break out or just wanna try something else. I dont have severe acne just the occasional zit, I have normal skin, I'm using OLAY cleansers and moisturizer and I eat healthy and am not overweight or anything like that. Right now I'm using Revlon Colorstay foundation but sometimes it feels cakey and I'm afraid of breaking out sometimes..
What foundation is the BEST, that wont break me out bad, that is preferrably oil free, that WILL STAY ON FOR HOURS and that isnt irritating????

PLEASE dont tell me to try: Bare minerals or MAC, i dont like those lol

How can I keep my skin moisturized and …..?

Hey guys! Thanks for clicking on this =)
Anyways, to get to the point.

I have breakouts all on my forehead and it is very disturbing . I need help!!

question 1 : How do I treat my breakout and how do I prevent any further acne?

Since the breakout is enough, my skin on my face has started drying and it starts to itch but I don't want to scratch it because I might pop a zit. I used Clearasil pore cleansing pad which in my opinion I think is only alcohol on a thin pad which is a rip off to me and at first I thought it moisturized my skin but once it dries off, it seems to not do anything to my skin but make it dry even more.......which brings me to my next question.

Question 2: How do I keep my skin on my face from drying, am I using the right medication, if not, PLEASE recommend me some kind of medication ( I'm open to all suggestions) I also like home treatments so I don't I have to use up so much money.

Thanks for all your help!!!

Acne even though I super take care of my skin???

I cleanse, tone, and moisturizer every day and night, and at night I add a spot treatment to my pimples. It's not so much acne that is the problem, but my T-zone is red and has acne marks left over. How do I get rid of this, and why won't they go away?

My skin genetics are pretty good, my mother had beautiful clear skin, and my dad had pretty okay skin (occasional zit but not horribly bad).

P.S. Will the Neutrogena Microdermabrasion Home kit work? I can't afford a reall facial right now.
I am a very healthy eater. I do not like fast foods, and unlike the vast majority of teens I try not to eat too much sugar (diabetes runs on my dads side of the family, so I take extra precautions to food)

SEVERE blackheads and blocked pores!?

Ok, I'm 15 and ever since the 5th grade (I was 9 at the time) I have not had one acne-free day. I have always had most bumps on my forehead and always got made fun of because I was the only kid in elementary school to have acne. By 6th grade I had huge blackheads. Then, two years ago, I started taking a homeopathic acne pills. Most of my big bumps are gone, I have some very tiny bumps on my forehead, and the occassional zit, but I've learned to be happy wiht that. My problem is blackheads and blocked pores. I used to have nice, tight pores before acne, I remember, my mom told me it's the oil and dirt in there that stretched out my pores. Now, on my forehead, nose, cheeks, chin, and above my upper lip (pretty much everywhere) I have huge blackheads and blocked pores. The pills did not help with that. My blocked pores are huge, people can actually stand a a few feet away from me and see how big they are, the biggest ones on my cheek. Ok, I'll continue my question below!
I have tried literally everything. Neutrogena, Clearasil, Clean and Clear, Proactiv, Murad, Biore scrubs and pore strips, I’ve tried St. Ives, I use oil blotting sheets, I’ve tried Using oil-free moisturizers and cleansers, I’ve tried salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, I’ve even tried Neosporin. I’ve tried only using a mild soap, mild soap and moisturizers, medicines, scrubs, and professional Glycolic Acid peels. If it’s in the skincare aisle, I’ve tried it. I wash my face twice a day, every day and have good hygiene. I never even wear foundation or powder so I won’t clog them any more! My skin seems to not respond to anything. I’m sick of my horrible skin and I want to know what else I can do! HOW can I get rid of these horrible blocked pores and blackheads? I’m tired of people making comments about my horrible skin! Please help, I’m so frustrated!

I recently became vegetarian, going on 2 months now.?

I am still consuming milk and eggs although I have been buying the cage free organic eggs and organic milk. I stopped eating fish 1 month ago. Im 33 years old and have had severe acne on my chest and back my whole life. Since I have started this diet my skin is beautifully clear. Not one zit anywhere. Has anyone else noticed this or is it a coincedence? What an awesome bonus to this diet if it is true.
