Acne Skin Care

Acne free or clean and clear kit?

So I've heard 2 kits work... Acne free from Wal Mart AND Clean &Clear Advantage Acne control. Has anyone tried Any of these, and how well do they work for you?

1. clean &clear
2. clean and clear...worked pretty well until i ran out and was too lazy to go buy more lol. but you have to keep up with it as with any acne treatment. one dose every other day isnt going to work. consistency is key. good luck!
3. get acne free! it is benzoyl peroxide (sp?), like in proactive. it works, i use it. clean and clear, however, did not work. btw i use this on my bacne/chestne, not facial acne.
4. STAY AWAY FROM CLEAN&CLEAR! your best bet? dermatologist. they can give you the stuff thats good for YOU! if you decide not to go with dermatologist, then do this: for night and morning face wash, use "Cetaphil" face wash, you can find it at any drug store. this will prevent oily skin and gives your skin a really good cleaning. also, stay away from aveno foam wash, it will dry your skin out. lemme know what you end up doin!
5. acne free works the best out of those 2. i recently just got acne free from walmart, and i had like 3 pimples on my cheek and after 2 days of use, they both cleared up fast. i even saw all the dirt and oil on the cotton ball from the toner. get acne free.
6. Here's what work; washing your face twice a day with the mild gentle soap morning/night. Start taking garlic pills or if you want just crush 3 cloves of garlic drink with milk or water, only 3 per day also same on those garlic pills. Pills that would also help is taking vitamin A, and Zinc (zinc; no more that 60mg per day). Those stuffs work for me, now it won't work immediately but you'll see a difference after 2weeks. Benzoyle peroxide after washing your face in mourning and at night.
7. Read what Dr. Perricone has to say about acne. There's more to it than cleansers. It has a lot to do with what you eat...getting the proper vitamins, nutrients, and water. He's got a book called the Acne Prescription which is definitely worth checking out. I had tried everything over the years, without full success. Now I am eating better and taking vitamins and am seeing a difference. Even my moods are better. I use a basic cleanser like Neutrogena fragrance-free in the pump.
8. i have not tried the acne free from walmart but i used to use clean and clear and it dried my face out REALLY bad.i have tried quite a few different lines and the one i have found the most effective is also found at walmart and it is by Garnier skin naturals, it is called PureA and it is in blue bottles and i use a three part course. Daily cleansing Gel, Skin Perfection Daily Care , and Skin Perfection Night Care. I use the face wash first thing in the morning and immediatly after i wash my face i pat dry and put the daily care lotion on before all the moisture is gone off my skin (it makes a big difference). and then at night i wash my face with the face wash right before bed and then immediatly after pat drying i put the night care lotion on. I found after the first three days of doing this my skin was noticably better, and after a week basically cleared right up. each item is only about $9 at walmart. I definitly stress that doing a nightly treatment no matter what product you use is the best idea because it has the most time to be on your face without any "interruptions" if you may.
9. Acne Tips... This is literally too much heat - your face has become a volcano just to let it out! Try mung bea, seagrass, seaweed, Chinese hawthorn (shan zha), Job's tears (yi yi ren), and purple sage (dan shen). Avoid spicy foods, greasy foods, and fried foods. Try some raw vegetables, too. http://www.facenbodycare.com/8_Natural_Health_Beauty_Tips.html
10. ive use both but i like acne free better
11. Try these things first: Mix baking soda and witch hazel/or water together until it comes to a good constancy, and then spread on your face and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. these two things are very inexpensive and it's very easy to do since there is only two ingredients. Toothpaste is good for drying out your pimple (for some people). Put only a little bit before you go to sleep. Some people use this as a mask but DON‘T EVER DO THIS! It can change your skin tone and make your face discolored. Aloe vera helps scars lighten and less noticeable (lemon, cocoa butter, witch hazel, and tea tree oil do the same thing). Use the gel (of the aloe plant) or the real thing. Try to buy a cleanser that works for you, and when you wash your face, open your pores with hot water (not too hot, or it will dry out your skin) and massage it gently into your skin. Then, use cold water at the end to close you pores. The smaller your pores are, the less likely you're prone to pimples. Clearasil, Neutrogena, and proactive are good choices to start if you want a cleanser. Don't use body soaps because they dry out your skin. Don't scrub too hard either, because it can irritate your skin. An egg yoke can be used to make you pores smaller. I used this when I had pimples. Just take the egg yolk (the yellow part) and leave it on your face for 10-15 minutes and rinse off with warm water and then splash your face with cold water. Keep your hair out of your face because the oils in your hair could go into your pores. Change you sheets because they're are trapped with dirt, oils, etc. Zinc (type of vitamin) is the one of the best things you can use to get rid of pimples. You can buy these almost about any large store (such as Wal-Mart or Shaws.) Have one tablet per day and try to cut down the junk food and replace it with vegetables and fruits. Drink lots of water and don't pop you acne. Popping acne can lead to acne scars. If you have sensitive skin, don't use make up. Some of the things in make up can clog your pores and cause pimples. Keep your hands out of your face as much as you can because you hands a full of bacteria and oils.
12. Acne free is the best! it's supposed to be better than proactiv. i've never tried proactiv cause acne free has solved my acne prob for me!
