My boyfriend has acne, just like me. I'm not sure how to help him though since mine has cleared up more since I'm on BC [only thing that worked besides proactive]. I don't know what type of acne he has anyway. He's rather pale and his face is a bit pink/red :] So his acne is.. just many bumps with no white heads or anything. Sometimes he does get a normal zit with a white head. [Which is all I get, so I'm not sure how to help with the bumpy texture] It's all over on the bottom of his cheeks and chin, so any tips/advice? I think his most concern is his skin color. How do you get rid of the redness?

Any advice/tips? Please don't say proactive [not everyone can afford it]. Preferably something you used & gave great results with bumpy skin.

All I can give him is Clearasil Ultra products. Do you think that would work for the "acne" ? I have the on spot treatment, deep pore cleansing pads and daily face wash?

He's talked to me about his skin like 5 times so far so I guess it's his way of wanting my help. :]

I used to have acne and so since I obviously didn't like it...I experimented.
I wash my face three times a day (and alternate face washes, don't know why but it seems to work) and use Clean & Clear astringent afterwards to sap out the oils. Then, apply moisturizer to ensure my face doesn't get all dried out.

It's really worked for me, so hope it helps!

That's what I do and it doesn't work for him. Thanks anyway. :]
