1. Drink a carton of Orange Juice every 2 days.
Vitinam C is really good for the face

2. DO NOT drink any carbonated drink or coke.
This is the one of the biggest causes of Acne

3. DO NOT Pizza, McDonalds etc.
Wouldn't you rather have a Sub or a Pita? All the fast food places have wraps now and it’s healthy.

4. Change your pillow case every other day.
Dirt can easily get into your pillow so change it every other day.

5. Try not to touch your face a lot.
When you touch your face you can sometimes spread dirt to your face.

6. Wash you face.
Sometimes we over wash are face so here’s what you could do. Wash you face in the morning with soap and then your Acne pads, cleanser etc. Then wash your face at night but DO NOT use the Acne cleanser.

7. Kept your hair Clean.
When you have dirty hair you will get a lot of acne around the ears and forehead.

8. Try not to look at your face.
When you look at your face it couldn't have gotten worse and then you would feel down because you've worked so hard at trying to get it acne free.

9. Use a clean towel to wash your face and pad it dry don't rub.

10. Set Goals
This is the best one. Set a goal say like you'll see improvement in 2 weeks and stick to that. Make sure you follow the steps

11. Don't Stress over your Acne
It’s proven that if you stress is a leading cause of Acne. So just set back and give yourself some time.

12. Get Vietnam E and run it on your face. It heals the face and all your scars.

O and if your looking for a Acne Cleanser I would recommnd Oxy Pads or Clearsal.

If you just stick to these steps and make goals you'll be fine. This will work for anybody. Mild or extreme like when it runs in the family.

Hope this helped
Alex B

I doubt your suggestions will work on severe acne but it might help some people.

Ha, if life were just so simple. I take it you never had a severe acne problem to begin with? Please excuse me, not trying to be nasty. I just get so frustrated when I pick up magazines aimed at teenagers and they have these nice little pat prescriptions for clearing their faces--which of course is not all there is to it, and then the people with zits are looked down on as not having taken care of themselves properly. It was helpful for some I'm sure, though, so please forgive my cynicism.

Cute, I didn't notice that.

No one's yet found any connection between diet and acne (as far as chocolate and fast food). However, there was a show on the other night about aging that suggested that the key to longevity is a calorie intake of no more than 2000/day. Maybe that sort of thing would help skin, too.

Meanwhile, so far so good on the Retin-A. The derm said to use it only twice a week at first, but since it didn't bother me the first time, I've been using it every night. I don't know if it's because my skin remembers it from using it years ago or if it's just because my skin isn't sensitive.
