Dont buy store made products....there is so many of them because none of them work..Seriously try this for a week and you will have perfect skin...mix baking soda and a little bit of water together and put it on your whole face and let it dry then wash it off with warm water...this dries up all your pores and makes your skin very soft but it doesnt dry out your skin..its by far the only thing that has ever worked for me..good luck!

i think that the reason your skin is breaking out and you have acne is because you are using store bought products. i used to have problems like that too until i totally switched to home made and organic remedies. here's something i use frequently. when you rub olive oil on your face, it restores some of the natural oils that are taken away from your skin, it also doesn't clog your pores, or dry out your face. olive oil is used in so many skin treatments. try rubbing ovacado on your face as well. it's lovely. give it a try lady,
i'm sure it'll make some difference

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.

A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.
The secret is never to touch the spots

There is a moisturizer called cetaphil and my dermotologist told me to use that. It's really light weight and doesn't make your face greasy, I love it. And you can get it at drug stores and target, and i dont know if walmart sells it.
