Wasn't sure where to put this so sorry ahead of time. I am 18.5 yrs old and my whole teen age life i've always has severe acne. It bothers me so bad that i feel ugly and emberassing. Is there any home remedies or great products that work? I do clean my face at night and in the shower (rarely sleep with makeup on) and i do put acne cream stuff on my acne before bed
And I don't know if I put it in there or not, but since you're 18, a good consideration could be Accutane. There's risks involved, but the benefit might outweigh them in your case, since your acne still hasn't gone away and it's affecting your life.

She tired everything from going to the dermatalogists to pro-active but NOTHING worked. She had breakouts because of her schedule. So I dont know if this will help but try the juice of oranges and cucumber and it may help. I've never tried it but they say it works. If it doesnt then if you want try other things but my sisters acne just stopped when she turned 21 by itself. So I hope I could help hun and I hate acne just as much as the next person!!! :) Good luck!!! [ electrocutie18's advice column | Ask electrocutie18 A Question ]
