    Hey you, pimple face, yea you.
    Okay well unfortuanlly god didn't love me enough to give me flawless skin. :-P

    So I have a pumpkin patch thing going on in my face. Like... Acne. Lots of it.

    Yea I know I'm 15 so its "normal" but point it, its ridiculously embarrassing and gross.

    I have used Nuetrogenia, Clearisl,Clean and clear, vichy and some other things that don't work at all!

    I mean... I think I'm going to give up on those products and try to eat more fruit and drink more water.

    would that help my acne go away?
    Is Proactive goood?
    Is it even possible to get rid of the monstrosity on my face?
    Choclate doesnt give pimples, thats true? Right?


    Helpppppp! Any tips to get rid of black heas, acne etc.
    Please don't say "wash yoru face :-D" I do that more then enough and that fails also :(
    AHHHHHHHHHHhhfdjghfjskhsdkfjsdilkfjdsklfj ks
    :) TY <3

    *Might I add I have oily skin (Lovely isn't it?)

    My son was told by his health-food-store-owner aunt to take zinc gluconate tablets. He bought from her Solgar Zinc 22 and took three a day, gradually increasing the amount until he was taking six a day. It was amazing how, within a month's time, his skin improved.

    Here's a site that gives similar information (or Google "acne zinc" without the quote marks) --

    Thanks.
    Zinc? I started taking a vitaman 3 x a dya, that's good right?
    The thing I used now called Vichy actually made my acne worse, but its all on my forehead area and I have bangs that cover it, Im thinking maybe its from my hair?

    Avoid putting creams in your air ( other than shampoo) do not touch your face throughout the day. Do not eat chocolate. And try to change your pillow sheet ever 2 days

    OK, honey. Bangs are not causing your acne. Chocolate is not causing your acne. These are old myths that are long over with, and we need to put them aside. Sure, changing your pillow case, keeping your hair washed, wearing non-comodogenic makeup will keep away the OCCASIONAL WHITEHEAD, but actual full blown acne is not caused by any of these!! These are caused by things inside your body, therefore you need to help your body from the inside out. Exercise, eat lots of grains, fruits, veggies, I'm sure you do that though. Can you visit a dermatologist? There's a prescription cream called differen that worked wonders for me and it gets down deeper and better than proactiv ever could (proactiv is a joke, don't waste your money), and a pill called doxycycline, they work together to create an acne free face. If you can't do this, simply staying healthy can improve it, but if you want it cleared, you will probably need to visit a dermatologist . I know it sounds scary, but your mom will understand. Parents were teens once too :)
