I have trouble from time to time. I've tried different products. I've found that Proactiv was too drying for my skin. I currently use Aveeno Clear Complexion Cream Cleanser. Although I'm not a big fan of the rest of their products, the Proactiv Refining Face Mask is very good for spot treatments and can be bought separately at their kiosks in the mall. It'a a small bottle, but lasts a long time.

I've always had a hard time with my skin due to the fact that I work out doors a lot and I spend a lot of time at the gym/exercising. I've tried damn near everything as well, ProActive, AcneFree, supplements, birth control, you name it. I was starting to get pissed because I wanted nice skin for the wedding, so someone on another board I read suggested going to www.acne.org and reading their regimen. Sure enough, as simple as it sounds, it worked. My skin looks 100 times better.

Thanks for the suggestion! I checked out the website (which is super corny, btw) and I've been trying "The Regimen" for a few days and it already seems to be helping. I have to say, though, it's really irritating to the skin... hopefully that goes away with a little bit of time.

You have to be careful with things like that. If it doesn't go away in a few days, I'd suggest to stop. If it irrates the skin, that means it could make the acne problem worse!

I'm a major fan of Bliss products. They're not the cheapest, so if you're unsure about spending a lot of money on skin care products at once, you can totally get trial-size sampler packages.
I've never had any skin problems.  An isolated pimple here or there, sometimes a little dry. I like Bliss stuff because it's pretty gentle.

Not to take off the face skin care conversation, but I am a big fan of Bliss's fat girl slim, fat girl sleep, love handler, and thinny thin chin products!

I had pretty bad acne from middle school to about junior year. I swear by ProActiv solution. Some people will say it does not work for them, but it worked perfectly for my skin.
