well, i have real bad acne on my back and on my chest and i want it all gone. im kinda self concious to wear a bathing suit or a shirt that buttoms up that ure supposed to leave open.
i was wondering if anyone had any known cures for it, like natural not store bought. store bought is fine too but it can't be too expensive.

Any one of their products would be really good, such as the acne wash/rinse.
When in a bathing suit, cover up the acne with liquid(waterproof if you can find it) foundation, then cover it with foundation powder. [ ASAPcamille's advice column | Ask ASAPcamille A Question ]
LM answered Tuesday February 5 2008, 1:32 pm: Use the same kind of products that you'd use on your face. Any face wash with salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and the like will do. Neutrogena makes Body Clear Body Wash, which is basically the same thing as face wash, but is designed to foam up like a regular soap. Also use spot treatments once or twice a day, like Clean & Clear Advantage. Another thing- when you're outside, make sure you're wearing sunscreen/sunblock. Not only is a sunburn bad anyways because of skin cancer and wrinkles, a sunburn will make your skin produce more oil, which will cause more breakouts. Not fun.
In the meantime, a bit of concealer will make zits less noticeable. Just make sure it matches your skin.
