Acne...
what's a good acne product that you can get at department stores? i've tired proactiv and i'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide, so i can't use it. I have to use sylaic (spellling?) acid. I want something that would give me proactiv results though. I have mild acne and combination skin. i have a lot of blackheads around and on my nose, and I don't really get pimples except when i get my period sometimes. 13/f

I don't think there's benzoyl peroxide in Spa Sciences. It's a kit, like proactive. I use it, to very good results. You can buy it and the refill kit at CVS.

Hey. I recommend Clinique's Acne Solutions Cleansing Foam, $17.50 at department stores. It has salicylic acid in it. I used it before and it worked pretty well and it's best for occasional breakouts too. hope i helped. take care!

Dear Friend,
There are a variety of products available for your skin type - and rubbing alcohol is NOT one of them! Disregard CJ's advice. Alcohol will strip your skin of its natural oils, which will leave it subject to even worse acne.
Develop a strict skincare routine:
1) Cleanse your face first thing in the morning, rinse with cold water and pat dry with a clean towel.
2) Follow with toner on your T-zone [Forehead and nose] and your chin - this will close the pores to prevent dirt becoming trapped within them, and fight shine throughout the day.
3) Moisturise your cheeks to prevent that dry flakiness that can come with combination skin.
Repeat the process at night, but rinse your face with warm water - this opens the pores, allowing your product to sink in overnight.
Blackheads are caused when your top layer of skin traps oil underneath it, and the sun can later turn them black. Exfoliate weekly to remove this build-up, and steam your face occasionally at night to allow the oil to exit the pores naturally.
You may need to see a dermatologist regarding what excact type of product to use. Tell them what you're looking for, and about your allergies. They'll be able to recommend something much more beneficial, and perhaps cost-effective.
Love,
Ainsley.

try usind dove soap.
Clean your face with alcohol.
Try using Cold water.
one of those has to work.
or re-accutane
If not, get some prescrepition antibiotics, those always work. (gotten at a dermatologist)

What helps me is stridex alcohol free pads. But I don't know if you would be able to use it i don't know because of your spelling but if this is what you are talking about aorry Salicylic acid? Which I kinda think it is what you are talking about then I know you said department store but I would try Avons face cleaning stuff because I am pretty positive it dosent have any of the stuff you are allergic to in it or i would look at the kroger brand and see if it has nay in it. Thats what my brother uses.Hope this helps. Good Luck in the future.
