good luck, I know acne can really be a pain in the butt at such a tender age. If you can raise $20.00 then you can go to walmart and buy the 3 step system similar to proactive. It is called " Acne-Free".
Jen, try Neutrogena. At least that's what a dermatologist recommends. However, you have to stay with it and not use only once thinking it will clear things up. Also, if you drink lots of soda, lay off. Soda can cause breakouts. Drink plenty of water. Smoking can also cause breakouts so stay clear from the smoke or soda. Hope this helps.
You need some Tea Tre oil; It's inexpensive and it works. No side effects, and it is great for any skin type. Look at the link below to find the product and info.
wash your face in ivory soap, use some alcohol on a cotton ball don't use to much and at night dab a little tooth paste on the problem areas just remember to wash it off the next morning
Don't touch your face!! I know it's tempting, I have the same problem! And wash it everyday. Eventually your face will clear up on it's own. Meanwhile you can buy an acne treatment cream to apply it directly to your acne at night if you think it's really bad.
