Acne

Acne is a skin problem that usually starts in your teens. Your skin becomes greasy, its pores get blocked and you develop whiteheads, blackheads, pimples or cysts.



What are your stories? Do you have mild, moderate or severe acne? What do you use to clear it up?

 

[Cranos]

Very mild and I don't use any skin products for it. None of those products work, only the stuff you can get with a prescription actually have an effect.

I've had pimples once i awhile never to much though, only time i seem to get this is when ever i eat pizza LOL.. Guess i don't wash my hands an i rub my face with that built up grease

I sometimes get an outbreak. It's really annoying having to clean it up. I have some Clean and Clear I use to help. I found that drinking plenty of water and keeping your face clean helps as well as not touching your face with your hands.



Apparently milk encourages acne. I wish I had known that earlier. It's probably the reason for my latest outbreak... drinking too much milk.

Ouch, i used http://www.noxzema.com/ when i get some it's a deep cleanser you can actually feel it (its sort of like a burn)

but like a good burn

The Clean and Clear revitalizing toner stings for a few seconds after it goes on. But as you said, it's a good feeling.

Exactly, i didn't know how to say it. Though Actually long hair gave it to me too

I just get a few zits every now and then, nothing major. My brother had it really bad though, he had to take prescriptions to help at all, and they didn't help much.



It's not hear as bad now though..

 

[Nebulous]

Im 25 and I still get them once in a while. Damn those things to hell!

Acne is caused by dirt only.





It has nothing to do with age.



don't buy all the crap they advertise, wash your face several times a day with a good soap and apply a think layer of moisturizer.



If you have oily skin, wash your face more often.

When I was watching the Uruguay - Netherlands game, there was a close up shot of the blackheads on Diego Forlan's forehead. I was thinking, do we have to see this?.



As for me, I'm acne free (for now, at least).

 

[Jazzy]

I'm acne free.

 

[netsavy006]

I get acne on my arms from the Lithium I take. I don't use any special treatments.

 

[James]

Somewhat severe acne,but I ignore it.

 

[Madyy]

Yeah, I get a bad outbreak every now and then...just now getting over one. I use Noxzema in the shower...and we have these things I use sometimes...and I have prescription stuff.

It's not as bad as it used to be, though...so I'm happy. XD
