Out of experience; what did u do to treat your acne and prevent breakouts?

I'm 15 and I have used many products like Clean and clear, clearsil, biore, and I actually started breaking out more when I started using Proactiv.Out of experience; what did u do to treat your acne and prevent breakouts?
I use to have pimples when I ate tumeric. Its a bright yellow spice, and all natural. Many of my generations eat and have nice skin.

To tell the truth... I have tired almost everything... all the over the counter drug store stuff... ive been on accutane (which helped....but so hard to get on and it takes awhile before you see results)... Ive been on several antibiotics... that did nothing... so I finally just stopped going to the doctor and putting all that crap in my body cause it wasn't working... So now i have begun using natural treatments and homemade facial products....





I do a baking soda and water mask every other night


I do a sugar and lemon juice scrub to help remove dead skin


I use hydrogen peroxide which is great for drying up acne


I am also using lightening soap... to help lighten up dark marks... I have also have a light lactic chemical peel to help lighten the marks... that worked okay... I'm gonna do a few more to help with the scars... And I have been doing this for about a month and a half now... and I have only maybe one or two break outs... now where near my daily break outs...





Some of that over the counter stuff is a waste of money and it doesn't work... for acne care... I stopped going down the acne care section in stores... instead.... I use more natural things for my skin....





Good Luck!!!
Calamine lotion has a drying effect so you can apply it overnight and wash the next day regularly to get rid of acne/pimples. More such solutions at

Tomatoes prevent breakouts :). I read it on a magazine and it works for me.
i went to a dermatalogist


and my face really cleared up within 2 months


but it would come back due to stress


so it wasnt longterm for me


im still using it


and its somewhat under control


the reason i stuck to it is because like you i had bought alot of products that never really helped me


i tried proactiv and i didnt see results


things that i would suggest


would be to drink alot of water


wash your face no matter how tired you are


morning and night


wear sunscreen


i actually found out that my skin breaks out more when im in the sun


so dont take risks finding out and protect your skin


try to eat the least of sugar


believe it or not it causes people to break out even if they dont realize it
I use Burts Bees and it works amazingly :)

great makeup
