To start, try touching your face only when absolutly neccessary to avoid spreading bacteria and oil.
Try using a different facial soap/scrub/cleanser rather than switch to organic foods. I've found that the stuff with a pump, like Clean & Clear Foamig Facial Cleaner work really well.
Also, try using an acne treatment with Salicylic Acid, like Clean & Clear Maximum Strength Invisible Blemish Treatment.

Organic vs. nonorganic food has nothing to do with acne. Don't overload on meds either. Pills, cream, and cleanser is wayyyy too much. Drop the pills and just stick to either the cream or the cleanser. It's going to be okay. Everybody gets acne at some point in their lives. Get some coverup and nobody will ever even notice. Good luck and try to chill a little bit. It's not the end of the world. If you've had very clear skin thus far, you'll have clear skin again. Much more often than most teens. Good luck.

Food actually doesn't have all that much to do with your face and pimples believe it or not. Drinking lots of water helps to flush out the bad stuff in your pores tho. Oragnic food is just like regular food only without the unhealthy things like chemicals and a little more money. My family is organic so how about asking your parents to buy the same food only the organic type. of name brand foods have orgain options and pretty much every food comes organic. Tell your parents you just want to try the healthier version of what you normally eat. It helps you live longer by helping protect you longer and better against cancer and diseases too. Just because you want to eat organic doesn't mean you have to eat weid food or exotic food or even different food! You can eat the same as your fam! And by getting them into your helping them too! Hope I helped and please give me feedback! And if you have more questions just give me a note in my inbox! Also if your acne is really bad you can go to a special doctor for a prescription is it's that big a deal :) ♥♥♥♥♥ [ HiChick's advice column | Ask HiChick A Question ]
