Go to the store and get Neutrogena! Get the scrubs and it cleans your pores. I have Clean n Clear and that works really good. Get the face wash and the scrubs, also the lotion you put on after. Wash your face every morning and night and use that face lotion. X0`

Dont try using any oils or facial spot removes there dont help infact some people have known to had there spots get bigger and get more. Just wash your face in the morning and before you go to bed. Try drinking lots of water its good for skin. Wait until your dermatologist apointment mabe try conceler to help cover them up.

luv roxie

honestly, when i saw my derm, he told me to never use any of that stuff cuz it was only making it worse because it wasnt caused by being dirty of anything. try soap and water to clean gently and curel moisturizer. goodluck <3

One thing you need to do is not wash your face too much.

If you wash it twice a day and you find yourself still breaking out like crazy, try going to once a day. Sometimes, if you strip your face of too much oil, the glands go into overdrive, and it just aggrivates the problem.

Once a day, preferably at night(it's also convenient in the shower), wash your face with a mild cleanser or scrub(Clearasil is good) . Then, dab toner on your t-zone(forehead, chin, nose, and cheekbones). Finish with a light moisturizer(something watery and not too thick).

Once a week, use a mud-type mask. Peel-off masks will irritate your skin. My favorite mask is Queen Helene's Mint Julep, available at any drugstore. That stuff is FANTASTIC, it's made for young oily acne skin. It soaks up the oil. On your nose you can see the little spots where it soaked up the blackhead oil.

Yes yes. The main thing is to get a simple regimen and stick to it.
