LilMia811 answered Monday June 28 2004, 10:06 pm: Okay, well I used to have a bad acne problem, and my friend intriduced me to this stuff called natures cure. It is a 2 part system; pills and an oil free sentless cream, that has about 5% benezol peroxide. You take one pill in the morning and one at night. The pills are tasteless and they help stop whatever hormonal imbablance is causing you to break out. The cream, which you apply only to the pimples, not the entire face,(and a little goes a long way), makes the outbreak that is there go away. Each box comes with a one month supply and cost $10. You can get it at any pharmacy.
I recomend that you do what I do before putting the cream on. Okay, when I wake up, I take my pill. Then I take a bowl fill it with water, and put it in the microwave to heat up until it gets steamy. Then you put a towel over your head and put your face over the bowl, so all the steam is in your face. do this for about 5 mins. the steam makes your pores open up so all the gunk in them can get out. After steaming your face, wash it with a very mild soap (no medicated stuff). After pat-drying your face, apply the cream. Yes its a bit of a process, but it really does work, and I think its worth it to keep a clear face. If it doesn't work though, then I suggest you see a dermatolagist. Good Luck!

And Also, Tell Your Friend About Your Concerns Reguarding Her Face, And Let Her Know, You Will Help Her And Always Be Around.. If She Can't Find ProActiv, Have Her Go To Walmart And Get ProAcne or AcneFree
