xxxxxx answered Monday October 25 2004, 5:19 pm: if you are going to wear foundation, wash your face before you put in on, and wash it off when you come home from school, and wash your face before you go to bed. personally, i dont think theres anything wrong with wearing foundation or coverup, because it doesnt make me breakout any more. it actually helps sometimes. so thats why i think everyone is different. and i use st. ive's medicated apricot scrub. i love it, and it works really well.

BashfulBowler answered Monday October 25 2004, 5:10 pm: If you wear foundation, put some sort of cream overtop ur acme before putting it on. Wash your face when you get home from school and when u wake up in the morning. Try and find makeup that has acme treatment in it also. Just try your drug store, they've got tuns of stuff. Stridex pads are useful too. Dont use regular soap to wash your face! [ BashfulBowler's advice column | Ask BashfulBowler A Question ]
ppcrn answered Monday October 25 2004, 10:24 am: i've never had acne, personally, but for some reason i always tell people to drink plenty of milk. i really have no reason to see a connection, but my skin has always been fairly clear, and i drink more milk than anyone i know.
plus, milk is good for you, so just drink it.
anything clean & clear is really good. personally, i use the nighttime moisturizer, because it smells very nice and tingles. [ ppcrn's advice column | Ask ppcrn A Question ]
spags10 answered Sunday October 24 2004, 11:33 pm: What works best for me is Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub. It's in a blue bottle and you can get it at Walgreen's or Jewel or any store like that. It's not really expensive either, maybe like $6.00-7.00. Also if you just put a little bit of moisterizer lotion on after you use the Clean and Clear stuff and before you go to bed, just to keep your face from drying up.

AngelofMusic answered Sunday October 24 2004, 11:31 pm: First off, don't touch your face at school. I stoped doing that and my face cleared up alot. I suggest you use Neutrogena oil-free acne wash and after use their on-the-spot acne treatment. I go to a dermotoligist and she tells me to use the acne wash but i have different loation. SO you put the stuff on at night. Then in the morning put the neutrogena oil free moistureiser on and then i LOVE their consealer, theres acne medecing in it and it totally covers up. Then after you conseal put on a neutrogena foundation. IF thats too expensive just stay oil free on what ever you buy. [ AngelofMusic's advice column | Ask AngelofMusic A Question ]
MoonFisher answered Sunday October 24 2004, 10:07 pm: The above answer was correct, NO POPPING, but I also recommend washing your face twice a day (less leaves oil, more dries your skin) and I use Cocoa Butter. It makes my skin GLOW with health and it's just wonderful. I love how it makes me smell like a chocolate easter bunny, lol. I use it from head to toe and just LOVE IT.

xXxpinky615xXx answered Sunday October 24 2004, 9:48 pm: I reccomend you use Clearisil products. I've tried proactive and it's a piece of shit so don't even waste 50 bucks on it. Clearisil products have worked the best on everyone I know. Try that. Hope this helped. [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
Cath answered Sunday October 24 2004, 9:37 pm: Hi Sweetie,
This might sound untrue and stupid but it totally works for me. First of all in order for this to work you MUST NOT pop your pimples. Now what I do is put a little bit of tooth paste on my pimple(s) in the night and leave it on for a while. You'll see the difference IMMIDIETLY.
Well I hope I was of help. Best wishes! ~Blessed Be... [ Cath's advice column | Ask Cath A Question ]
ElementaryHustler answered Sunday October 24 2004, 9:30 pm: Use proactiv to get rid of your pimples and use any kind of foundation liquid and powder. It covers them up pretty good. Oh and that new matte moose stuff its some foundation its really good covering up pimples.
