Hey. I'm 15/female, and I'd say I have pretty bad skin..
Actually, I have terrible skin. It has scars from past acne and there's always new acne patches on either my forhead, temples, chin, or sometimes all three. I don't think I have the money for a dermatolagist, so I was wondering what foods I can eat/ exercises I can do to help with bad skin? Or any facewashes (besides proactiv, that's expensive) that would help? Thanks!

I would definitely, absolutely recommend Loreal Skin Genesis Deep Purifiying Foaming Cream Cleanser & Dr. Sheffield's ClearZit Acne Cream.
You can get the first one from Wal-Mart. It costs about $5.98 and is in a pink bottle. The second one can only (I think) be found at Dollar General for only $1.
Wash your face in the morning, and before bed with the face wash. Before bed, after cleaning your face, apply some face moisturizer/lotion on your face, then apply the acne cream on the areas where you have acne. You need the lotion so the acne cream doesn't dry your face up too much.
Hope this is helpful. :) [ xwishonstarsx's advice column | Ask xwishonstarsx A Question ]

anonymous99 answered Monday June 29 2009, 3:01 am: Well, excercises won't do anything for you. I'm not sure of any foods either. Most people overlook the cheap brands of acne treatment because they think, "It's cheap, so it must not work." WRONG! When I had acne problems, I used the very cheap and effective ZAP-A-ZIT. It's name is stupid, and it's cheap, but it works. In 1-3 days any problems should be cleared up. It seems to prevent for a little while, too.
