Hey! I know this has nothing to do with weight but i was wondering if you guys could help me, if not that's totally cool. So for awhile I've had two goals in live, to get rid of my acne and to loose weight in order. Here's the thing I can't loose weight until I get rid of my acne because that's the way I want to do it, and I decided that awhile ago and I really don't want to break that. Okay, so the point is has anyone here ever had acne? Because it's hell for me!! I've had it sence last year the summer before sixth grade. When I look at myself in the mirror i disgust myself, and sometimes like just last night I cry cause it won't go away. I've tried EVERYTHING literly...clinique,cetifil,murad,proactive,acne free,a bunch of nutrigena stuff, this one pill from the dermotologist. If someone knows anything that can help me please please post!! I'm really sad and I hate going places. Thanks and God Bless..LB

Reply from Marielle, Age 15 - 03/29/05 - IP#: 66.69.218.xxx well after all this helps out and your acne is gone, start using noxzema creme and oxy pads every day. it doesn't help really get RID of bad acne, but it prevents it. so use that once your skin heals!

Reply from kels, Age 16 - 03/29/05 - IP#: 63.77.244.xxx id do both at once. and greasy foods rarely cause acne, unless u rub them on ur face, but fruits and veggies can help your skin be healthyier. to dry my face when its really oily, i was it with dove bar cleanser, than I take a cotton ball and put rubbing alcohol on it. it kills bacteria in your pores and dries out the oil. Id follow it with an oil free moistureizer like clean and clear, because it can REALLY dry your face out
Reply from alikazam - 03/29/05 - IP#: 69.40.221.xxx HOW LONG DID YOU TRY PROACTIVE? BECAUSE IT TAKES A WHILE TO WORK BUT WHEN YOU DO YOUR FACE WILL BE LOOKING GREAT I TRYED PROACTIVE AND OT MADE ME GET EVEN MORE ZITS THEN AFTER USEING IT FOR A WHILE IT WORKED NOW MY ACNE IS GONE!!! ALSO THE CLEARISL WIPES WORK REALLY WELL AND DONT EAT CHOCLATE AND DRINK A LOT OF POP

Reply from anne, Age 18 - 03/29/05 - IP#: 216.66.102.xxx i have great news! you can do both at once!!! here it is: eat lots of anti-axidant full fruits and veggies and drink a lot of water- don't over do it with junk, keep your hands clean- exersize and wash your face after to get rid of stuff on your face. do these things and you are on your way to an acne-free and healthy thin body!
Reply from lola, Age 15 - 03/29/05 - IP#: 217.43.219.xxx hi i had acne one of the reasons u get acne is cos of bad diet sometimes but only sometimes. Anyway what got rid of most of my acne was this dalacin T rolly ony stuff from the docter. I still get a few spots here and there but its so improved
