Acne has been a big struggle for me. Ever winter I get it bad. However during the summer it disappears. Does any one recommand something. Please don't say proactive because it's on TV. Please name something that actually worke for you!

I know a lot of people are going to say my answer is bad because its bad for you, but the tanning bed always makes mine go away. I think it helps to dry up the bumps. The reason you probably don't have acne in the summer is because the sun you get on your face can help dry them up..
I don't know what you eat or drink, but try drinking only water for a while to see if it helps.
Don't pick at your bumps... I know its hard not to haha.. but it makes it worse.
I really like face masks.. you can get them anywhere pretty much.. some of them are even really cheap at wal mart.. leave that on.. let it dry.. it helps and makes your skin really smooth.
Try getting a face wash with microbeads in it.. that seems to help too..
Whatever you choose to try.. just keep at it for a week or two.. you aren't going to see results instantly in any method.. sometimes the bumps even get worse before it gets better.
I hope I helped in some way.. getting bumps sucks!
Good luck!
