Avon has a solution. Go to www.youravom.com/paulacarpenter and order from either the "true pore-fections" or the "Avon Solutions" collection. Hope this helps.:)

I totally understand what you're going through!
What's been working lately for me is Murad products! They really seem to help!
You can get it at Saphora stores (they're in some malls and you can definitly get it on line).
I personally like the Neutrgina washes, but I use Murad Exfoliating Gel twice a day, and their acne prone lotion too.
Good luck!

Hi. I had acne as a teen and a young adult that was so bad I didn't want to leave the house either. I just used cover-up and powder occasionally when I would go out. I don't suggest it often though as it clogs pores and makes the breakouts worse. What really worked for me was this stuff called Proactive. I think you can order it online and I know I still see infomercials for it. It did sort of tingle at fist and burned just a little because I had very sensitive skin, but it worked wonders. I don't use it as often now and my acne hasn't come back like that in years. I get the occasional pimple but not the huge, swollen red face I used to deal with. My sister uses this product too and she swears by it. Both our acne cleared up significantly within a few days.

Hi G.!

I am having the same problem. Nearly 40, and breaking out like a teenager. I have tried everything and I am currently on antibiotics, both oral and topical, and retin-A. It seems to get better for a while and then I have an explosion all over. I cannot leave the house without makeup.

I don't know if you have tried it, but Proactiv worked for me for a while. It is pretty reasonable, and you get it delivered to your house every two months.

It's worth a shot. Good luck.

Hello
I use over the counter clearasil is very good theres a cream that you put several times a day it will dry them up.
I get lots of break outs when I'm stress or just the summer when is hot.
try this product even their soap to wash your face and also use St Ives scrub for black heads is wonderful it will also help.
good luck
hope this works for you.

i don't have acne, but i do have discoid lupus...it makes it look as if a dog has big me on the face...people constantly ask if i was in an accident, someone even had the nerve to ask if my husband hits me! i have been taking a light steroid and have had steroid injections. while the scars still show, i just use quality makeup and keep a positive attitude. the attitude helps a lot, it makes people forget about the scars and patches! just be confident when you meet these friends, and i promise you your scars will become invisible!
