I have been battling with acne for about 4 years... Its hurtful and horrible to see my face in the mirror each morning. Nothings ever worked so far.. I just want to look like a normal person.. I have self esteem problems b/c of it and i dont feel pretty.. and the truth is.. I would actually be beautiful if i had none.. thats whats hurts the most.... My skin is very oily most of the time and i use dove soap to clean it with 2 times a day.. I also noticed my skin is dry and peely... which i dont understand bc its so oily all the time.. If you have any imformation on a treatment for my skin type please notify me.. thanks.
I also have oily skin and very oily scalp. I shampoo hair everyday and if going out wash face 2 or 3 times daily. I found Vit.E capsules help body break done body fats in body so take 1 morning and 1 night. Many good skin cleansers, though probably only one will suit you. I found some soaps work well, some soaps make skin dry. Name or price does not always match result. Some non name cheap soaps work well, try Witch Hazel soln. dab on with cotton wool, good price and fair result for me. One soap I found for face OK was Neutragena, just cheap soap for body. Though when shampoo hair apply-1 rinse and apply-2nd again rinse , then conditioner. I try not eat oily foods or milk in big amounts as 1or 2 hrs later oily forehead. Cut fat of meat and do not consume fat. Just keep experimenting varying foods, soaps, cleaners till you hit the agreeable combination. No two people the same so no remedy cure same. Be your own researcher and skin doctor.
Finding an acne treatment that lives up to its claims can be as elusive as buried treasure. The health and beauty market is flooded with products, and every acne treatment available claims to be the best for you. However, common sense and experience prove otherwise. With a little information and a lot of dedication, you can soon be on your way to a healthy, clear complexion.
Acne treatment and skin care products claim to cure acne and each brand claims superiority over other acne skin care products. In order to find some truth, start with the label. Read through the entire list of ingredients. Manufacturers are required by law to list the ingredients according to the quantities found in the product. The main ingredient will be listed first and the ingredient that is found in the smallest quantity will be listed last. Salicylic acid and benzyl peroxide are both good acne fighting ingredients, so look for those first. If you have sensitive skin, avoid products that contain alcohol as this will dry your skin and irritate your already damaged acne prone skin. Those with sensitive skin should try to choose a product with natural ingredients. If the label is filled with chemical compounds and a slew of things you can't pronounce, try to find something simpler. Acne skin care products that are filled with chemicals may make your acne worse before actually starting to clear up your blemishes.
Try not to purchase acne treatment products based on an emotional reaction caused by the company's advertising. Remember, they want your money, and will employ fanciful tactics to convince you that you desire their product over the competition. Shop with your head, not your heart. Making an intelligent choice in purchasing acne skin care products will prevent that let down feeling when the product doesn't live up to its claims. Choosing to treat your problem skin with only appropriate acne skin care products is key to reaching your goal of a healthy, clear complexion
The best acne treatment for your mother may not be the best acne treatment for you as well. Each person's chemistry is unique and you may need to experiment with a few products before finding the best acne treatment for your skin. If you discover a product that works short term, try to find the same main ingredient in another brand. Sometimes, choosing a product that is glycerin-based may work better than a water-based one. Finding the best acne treatment is often a matter of trail and error.
Once you have chosen an acne skin care product, it is important that you follow the manufacturer's directions exactly. This is where your dedication comes into play as most products will require application two to three times a day, everyday. Applying an acne skin care product erratically will not achieve the desired results. It is easy to become discouraged if you don't see immediate improvements in your skin after beginning an acne treatment. Hang in there. Sometimes, badly infected skin takes time to heal and improvements may not be noticed until after several applications of a good quality acne skin care product.
