Help with breakouts!!

Every since I went off BCP, my face has been a mess. I have tried so many different facial cleaners, and nothing works. I'm thinking I should go see a dermatologist. I have always had problem skin, but I just thought by 28, my face would clear up. HELP!!!

I had the same problem. Now I just use St Ives Apricot scrub and keep my hands AWAY from my face Chat Icon

I had the same problem. I went to the dermatologist and I am on Evoclin and Finacea - both topical treatments. My skin is awesome now.

Not to sound like an infomercial, but this stuff really works.

I had bad breakouts from adult-onset acne. I tried almost everything on the market. Proactiv worked "okay", but it was getting expensive and was a PITA trying not to run out before a new shipment was delivered. So I was in Target and saw Clean and Clear Advantage. It works so much better than Proactiv IMO.

I would definitely follow up w/ a dermatologist (I was going to recommend Dr. Fox in Lindenhurst), which it looks like you are doing. If you still want to try something OTC, then it's definitely worth a try.

Tea Tree Oil! Oh my! I love it. Just swipe some on your acne and it goes away-au naturale!
