xo_dream answered Tuesday August 3 2004, 6:11 pm: You need a good moisturizer, a good facewash, + a spot treatment, most likely. And exfoliating will help get rid of dead skin. Try different things, because, yeah, some things work well for some people, but not for others. If you go to a dermatologist, they'll be able to give you something that will most likely work faster than a store-bought treatment. Good luck! :o) [ xo_dream's advice column | Ask xo_dream A Question ]

Put lotion on ur face. That helps some. I am not sure how to get rid of acne cause I have never had it. Hope I helped.

mizzfitz92 answered Tuesday August 3 2004, 12:53 pm: OK! Just don't worry. I'll get ya all set up! Ha! Ha! I major in this category! LOL! Anyways, you need to get some kind of good acne cream to dry out ur face to get rid of the zits. I can't tell you mine cuz it's perscription. But, just any acne cream will work. You need to wash your face twice a day with WARM water so your pores won't get clogged. I recommend Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. My dad works for that company and it "works like a charm". Then after you wash your face, maybe put a bit of rubbing alcohol on the zits, then you need to put ur zit cream on. Try to go swimming as much as possible cuz the chlorine dryz ur face out. You might want to put a little bit of moisturizer on ur face every day, though. You don't want it to be REALLY dry. SO just moisturize a bit. Then after your face is clear of zits, then you need to start moisturizing before school starts. I use Olay Moisturizing Therapy Cream, and Aquaphor. The Aquaphor will make ur face really shiny, but if you put it on twice a day for like 4 days, your face will be a smooth as just shaven skin. Sorry this was so long!!!! Hope I helped! Please rate me!
selectopaque answered Tuesday August 3 2004, 12:52 pm: Not everyone gets zits because of oily skin. You are probably getting zits because you have such dry skin.
Try taking a tiny bit of baby oil, spread it on your palms, and then spread it on your face. After you do that, your face will probably be way too shiny and greasy, so take a towel or paper towel and dab your face until you get the desired amount of moisture and dryness.
