Ok...I always wash my face once a day. Sometimes 2 times. I can't keep the zits from coming! I need help. How do you prevent zits and blackheads!!?!?!?! (link)

Zits are a part of normal maturing and puberty. Yes, it sucks. My mom (and my former youth pastor) have adult acne. That sucks even more.
Proactiv is supposed to be good... I don't know. But I've been using this stuff called AcneFree (Sams Club, $30) and it's supposed to be the same thing as Proactiv, only a lot cheaper. It seems to be working very well, and helps alot. I haven't had any breakouts since I started using AcneFree and my skin is much softer (thanks to the moisturizer that is part of the treatment).
I've gone through so many different kinds of washes and treatments, trying to get rid of my acne, or at least make it less noticeable. I even got some stuff perscribed from the doctor. It didn't help much at all. I've used Clearasil, Clean -n- Clear, Apricot Scrub, Avon, Clinique... you name it, I've probably tried it. The one thing that worked PERFECTLY? Antibiotics. I'm serious. I had my ear lanced a few months back (it was infected) and I was given antibiotics to clear up the infection. The antibiotics also cleared up the acne, because they killed the bacteria that cause pimples. However, it is rare that a doctor will give you antibiotics simply because you have acne. Some girls are put on birth control because it will help clear up acne, but there are side-effects with that too.
You could try AcneFree, because it has really helped me. I felt so awkward with pimples all over my face, but now I don't because I know people aren't staring at my "third eye" or the huge zit on my nose. ;)
Wash your face morning and night to help keep bacteria away from your face. Try not to touch your face. Wash your hands often.
When you do have a pimple, put hot compresses on it. (Rags soaked in hot water) This will draw the bacteria out and you can drain the pimple, then put Polysporin (a strengthened version of Neosporin) on it so it will heal. If a pimple isn't ready to be drained, put ice on it to make it smaller. Use Pollysporin or Neosporin on acne scabs or scars to help them heal better.
