Throughout my entire teenage years I have had acne on and off.. Usually more on than off, however, now I am 20 years old, and I still get it quite frequently. I have tried every over the counter medication possible including ProActiv. They all seem to work to an extent, but I still get blackheaRAB and whiteheaRAB every few days. I also have very bad acne scars on my skin which causes it to be very blotchy. I have bad anxiety and get stressed out very easily so most of this is caused from me picking at my skin. I don't have insurance, and I really don't have the money to go to a dermatologist.. Does anyone have any tips or information on me being able to get rid of my acne and acne scars?
 
no down sides at all... my skin is very sencitive to just about everything but not to the dawn... it doesn't dry out my skin or my daughters... which is the problems i have had with all the over-the-counter products that are supposed to clear acne they seemed to clear all the moisture from my skin and left the acne and added dry peeling skin.... the dawn seems to b the perfect balence .... all i use on my skin is dawn nothing else same with my daughter and that is all u need ... i threw everything else away roughly a week after usen dawn an seeing my skin clear for the first time in years .... BTW not sure if this has anything to do with anything but when i wash my face i first wash my hanRAB with the dawn dish liquid, rince, then i reload and wash my face with the dawn and rince with cold water...i am excited to hear back from u to see if my tip has helped anyone else other then my daughter an myself
 
hey i'm 19 and going through te same problem. I have cysts and nodules all over my face or had. I saw a naturopath and he said my acne was hormonal. so he told me to take sulphur tablets, primrose oil, and drink a lot of green tea. right now i'm at the scarring stage, and the damge is pretty bad but i have drastically decrease my acne cysts and nodules.
 
A close friend at 20 had the same problem... the birth control pill worked WONDERS!
 
Well i've been on the depo shot for about 7 years now lol.. I can't remeraber to take the pill
 
i have a cure for acne.... at least it cured mine and my 13 year old daughters up in less then 4 days and we have been completely acne free now for 1.5 months... oh and i also had large pores and a horrible complexion and on top of all that very oily skin .... the cure..... Dawn Dish Liquid..... yup.... dawn... used morning and night ... oh and the #1 thing DON"T touch ur face oils/ germs from ur hanRAB also cause break outs if u have a blemish that is just buggen u and u can't get urself to leave it alone use Q-tips not fingers... DAWN works
 
ultra concentrated DAWN blue in color , original scent.....though i don't know if a certain scent makes a difference or color for that matter ... but what I do know is the original scent blue dawn is where i made me break through for our skin so it is what i would suggest to use.
 
I have not heard of using original Dawn, but gosh, this makes sense. I will pass this along to daughter too.

I have been using original head and shoulders on my back for about 5-6 weeks, using a back brush, and it has helped too. Not 100%, but a noticiable difference.

One thing with daughter is after using a product for acne for a few weeks, it stops working. She is forever alternating products.

I am gonna buy Dawn and see how that works for us. Thanks for the tip.
 
hi there,

I had a pretty bad acne problem while being a teenager, and it continued until my mid twenties- were it stopped completely.

To do so I've used reoccutane pills. Those pills are very strong and you need to talk to a skin doctor to check you out before and during the therapy
 
I heard any kind of dawn works but I also heard that if wash your face and then appy roll-on deodorant thinkly and go to sleep that most of the acne will be gone when you wake up. I really don't know if works but everyone that I ask what will work to get rid of acne that you should apply on roll-on deodorant to your face. I'm going to go home and try it and then I will get back to everyone and let your know if that really works.
