okay well i use proactive and i know that alot of people say its junk and you may have tried it but see if you use it everyday and how you are supposed to then it works and stops acne. and it has a lotion in it that you are supposed to use after you have used the other products and stuff. and it really works for me. also try not to touch your face or places with acne because the oils and dirt on your hands get in your pores. and if you dont do that and use oily products then your acne may decrease. and i wash my face with the proactive twice a day in the morning and at night. and proactive has a lot of makeup products and stuff that also doesnt increase acne!
hope i helped

Thre are a few things you can use thatwont dry out your skin and still help fight the acne.
You need to find a face wash that is PH balanced, a PH balanced was won't dry out your skin but it will still clean it, just ask your pharmacy to help you out.
You can slso use Clean & Clear oil free skin balancing moisturiser, this keeps your skin moisturised and helps clear your skin at the same time.
You could also try going to a doctor for another approach, talk to him/her about the problem and tell him/her how it's affecting you. They could give you a highly medication cream to use or they could put you on some medication that will help.
You could also try a home remedy that I've tried. Once a week make a mask out of aspirin and honey. You need to get pure honey, one that has no added anything. Get about 6 aspirin tablets and crush then up finely, add them to the honey to make a paste, after about 30 minutes, take it off gently with warm water, the granules should lightly exfoliate your skin.
Hope that helped.
