Q&A: What is the best product for my acne & fading acne scars for my skin type?

Question by MISTY S: What is the best product for my acne & fading acne scars for my skin type?
My skin is super oily, I’m a stress case and I don’t eat as healthy as I should. (my skin does dry out a little bit in winter)
I drink gallons of water every day.

I have old acne scars & current adult acne. My acne is not as bad as some–but enough to bother me. The scars are pretty bad.

My skin tone is very uneven. To add to it all, my birth control pills caused a tan line on my upper lip.

I wear make-up about 3 times a year and wash about 2x daily with either cetephil or phyosderm. I’ve been applying Clean & Clear spot treatment all over.

In the summer, I sweat gallons at my job–though I do wipe down my face with plain cold water now & then throughout the day. Don’t sweat so much in the winter!

With my skin type, what is the best you have tried to help fade acne scars?
What is the best product to keep current acne under control?
TYPE OF ACNE–white heads on chin, at corners of mouth. Regular breakouts of normal zits with occasional monster size zits that take about 3 wks or more to go away. These Godzilla zits are fairly new with me–they don’t develop a head or ozze anything–they just sit there, big, red, and sore feeling.

I cannot afford to go to a dermatologist although if an expensive product is recommened, I might be able to get that at Christmas time.

I’m open to home remedies, however I doubt my diet will change much. I do indulge in fruit often and take Calcium, D, B complex & C
(I stopped taking vitamin E because I heard it could speed up lung cancer in smokers–yep I’m a smoker too. No good for the skin; been trying to quit for the past month)
I’m not looking for “I have heard” or “look into this”

What have you tried yourself that works–or what has a friend tried that you have seen works?

I cannot afford to waste time & money on experimenting

I really would appreciate any feedback about products/home remedies that are tried & true
have I steamed my face? I work at a dry cleaners so I get daily facial steams! ha ha

Also, if a home remedy is recommended that invloves making pastes, squeezing fruits–I probably wouldn’t do that. I’m too lazy to make magic potion daily. icon biggrin Q&A: What is the best product for my acne & fading acne scars for my skin type? Easier to grab a bottle/jar out of bathroom cupboard

You could use the new Neutrgena ID for advanced acne cleanser or for just regular acne problems ProActiv is the best.

Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel.?

Question by me is a BAMF.: Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel.?
Tonight is the 3rd time I use it. I do just as it reads on the bottle; 3 times a week, leave on for 5-10 minutes. Wherever I read a review people say that they used it more often and even left it on for 30 minutes before washing it away. Also, I don’ feel a tingling sensation when it’s on. Should I leave it on longer, or use it more often instead of 3 nights a week? How will I get faster results?

Thanks in advance (:

To see results, you have to wait a long time. It takes 28 days for new cells on your face to generate. I saw results while using it with the Neutrogena Visibly Even Enzyme Treatment.

I leave it on until I’m in the mood to take it off to be honest. I use it every other night for a week and then lay off and then every other night. Basically, you’ll see results (I do) the week I let my skin rest.

Something that you have tried that worked for you. Also, something that would completely get rid of them. I have heard castor oil, lemon juice, aloe vera gel. Do they really work?

Answer by anonymous
I bought the Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel last year to eliminate my acne scars. I didn’t notice much of a difference, except it made my skin really soft. A few large scars faded, but it doesn’t do much for the small, repeating scars.
