Acne Cream? what is the best acne cream i dont have acne but i dont want to start ♥
How many different products can I use on my face? also will my acne cream bleach clothing/sheets? I wash my face twice a day(which has salyllic acid in it if it makes a difference)and I also use a moisturizer and an acne treatment(that has benzoyl peroxide in it). I also use pore strips on my nose every once in a while. Would it be a good idea to start using an astringent? How many products is too many? Also, will my acne cream bleach my clothes/sheets? I used to use clearasil ultra tinted acne cream with benzoyl peroxide, and it warned me on the package that it may bleach things, and it does, so now I use AcneFree terminator acne cream, which also has benzoyl peroxide in it, but it didnt say anything on the package about it bleaching things, does anyone know if it will? Thanks!
Is it true that using acne cream or medication can make acne worse? I've heard that using acne cream like Proactiv or Clearsil can clear acne for a few weeks but will cause it to come back, even worse and last even longer. Is this true? Also, I went to an acne treatment review website and for most acne treatment brands there are reviews that say it's amazing and also reviews that says it's horrible, so it's hard to know what product will have the best resulsts. Any advice?
How do I get rid of dry, flaky skin after having used acne cream? I used some acne cream on my face last week, and it got rid of my spots completely, but it's left my skin feeling like sandpaper, I can't wear makeup and it's flaking visibly. I've tried a few mousturisors but they're not helping. Is there any other way, preferably without having to buy anything especially?

does using moisturizer with acne cream defeat the purpose? I moisturize my entire face 1st, then apply acne cream to problem areas. Does the moisture neutralize the acne cream, since the cream is meant to dry out acne? haha! theoneoflight68's answer is cute; it's a typical Guy-Answer. But water can't wash out oils; water sticks to hydrophilic molecules, and oil sticks to hydrophobic molecules. I think you just have good genes!

I've used several different brands of acne wash/cream and nothing works? I have acne on my face, not severe acne, but I have some bumps on my forehead and it really bothesrs me. I used acne cream and acne wash and it stopped the redness but the bumps are still there. I can't go anywhere without thinking about how I look, this really bothers me.

How do I apply this acne cream on my skin? I was prescribed "Tretinoin" 0.025% It says "Apply to the effected area before bedtime" When it says "effected" does it mean the whole face, or just the zits? Also, when I apply it, do I leave the cream to a visible "WHITE" color or keep on rubbing until the white is gone? Also, can I use any other acne treatments, like clearsil daily wash? Something that just washes my face in the morning, then I use it at night then I apply the cream.

Acne Cream? How are you suppose to put on Acne Cream? - Rub it in hard? - Just rub it in? - Rub it in but keep a little showing? - Or Whatever Way There Is... And is Clearasil good?

Acne Cream+Chlorine? Im 16 and I swim twice a day and I have an acne problem. Ive been to dermatologists and they have perscriben me amny different creams. The problem is is that when im in season for highschool swimming, the chlorine in the water causes irritation when combined with acne creams. Benzoil-Peroxide is way too strong and caused itching and burning when im swimming. Ive also tried Tarozac with the same results. Now i have some other cream which doesnt help the acne. Then the dermatologist perscribed pills that fight acne, but I cant eat any dairy. I didnt buy them because dairy foods are a big part of my swimmer's diet and I really dont like taking pills. DOes anyone know of any creams, medicines, remidies, etc to help me?

natural acne cream?? Hello. Serious question here. I am pushing 30, gawd I hate that number...anyways I am pushing 30 and I am starting to break out with acne like a 16 year old kid going threw puberty! I eat a mim amount of oil, I don't eat alot of fatty foods (that magick number likes to add pounds you know) so I am thinking it's stress related. Kids can do that! Can any one tell me of a natural acne cream that works? I have read up on a few different ideas but there is no comment about it working. or even a store bought cream? I have tried a few store bought creams but they really don't do much good and yes, I do wash my face daily so no funny comments about that please! I don't like doctors (nothing personal) so seeking medical advice is out of the question..thank you in advance!

DONT bother saying 'try proactive" and such ..creams that dont contain is i dont want to hear about. ill give a best answer.
Acne Cream Doesn't Work? I must be doing something wrong because I have been using Acne cream twice a day, daily and these two pimples won't go away! I wash my face before and apply the cream like it says. Are you suppose to rub it in like lotion or like rub it a little but keep the cream showing? Any suggestions? I use Clearsil by the way. I probably spelt it wrong. I have been dealing with pimples for a long time. When I mean 2 pimples, they are big. But I have like 5 little ones. Once they go away, more come. So don't tell me to grow up. I have girls always coming up to me to tell me to pop them and how I should get rid of them. But popping them can cause them to come back.

Dry skin due to prescription acne cream? I have been prescribed: Tretinoin Cream USP 0.05%, and Clindamycin 1% Gel 30 GM, for acne. Both of these eliminate acne almost perfectly for me, the only problem is they dry my skin out to the poin where it stings, and peels. I have tried Aveeno Active Naturals-Daily Moisturizing Lotion for my dry skin problems, but it has not worked. Usually it works that i put the prescribed acne products on for one day or a few hours at a time, and then my skin will peel for about 4 days, even with lotion on 24/7. Any suggestions on how to follow the directions on the prescriptions "Apply to Face Once Daily", and not have to worry about horribly dry skin?

Horrible effects from Retin-A Micro acne cream! What should I do!? Alrighty, so I am 17 years old and have had minor acne from about the sixth grade 'til presently. About a year ago I was prescribed Retin-A Micro topical cream as well as several oral pills which in time have increased in strength to what I now use which Minocycline.About 2weeks ago I ran out of my Retin-A and procrastinated getting my prescription filled until about 4 days ago. So I went about 2 weeks without the Retin-A. I didn't think it would be that big of deal seeing as I had been using the cream for a whole year. Anyways, 4 days later (which is right now) I think I am in pure hell. This cream might actually be the death of me. My skin is horrid! It's red, flakey, dry, nasty, pretty much all around repulsive. I don't understand why I am having to go through the"healing process" all over again. I have used Retin-A for a whole YEAR and I took a 2 week break?Anyways, just wonderin' if any of you have ay suggestions for xtremely dry skin and/or have had similiar experiences w/RetinA
