I literally believe that I have the worst skin ever!! I had acne since the end of 5th grade and now I'm in 7th and every year the acne gets worse %26amp; so does my self confidence... I've tried ProActiv, Juice Beauty, and Neutrogena. Probably more. I am currently using Differin at night and Duac in the morning and these certain pills at night when I eat. Everywhere I go I haven't seen anyone suffer as much as I have with acne. PLEASE HELP!!

Acnezine is the best product i have come across that helps beat acne.

use benzoyl peroxide and homemade topical niacinamide.
check out http://www.acnetreatmentlab.com for information. they work best when combined because benzoyl peroxide kills the bacteria while niacinamide prevents inflammation and promotes healing.
use clean and clear
Try this simple remedy. Wash your face twice a day in warm salty water. This should leave your face oil free without aggravating the acne like soap. The secret of keeping the skin clear is to keep it oil-free and clean. Check out http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/ for more useful info.
Clearpores works best on acne problem. I have used and got some very relevant results.

First of all, no one has flawless skin. Some people have it better than others, but thats just genes and stuff. Go to www.freewebs .com/reelbeauty11 for skin and beauty tips. I know its for young girls, but it works for anyone!
I know some people who have tried ProActive and it worked, but I also know some others who have tried it and it made it worse :( I know some who have put rubbing alchol on their skin or peroxcide to dry up the pimples. It also kills bacteria :) . Also, try going to a dermotoligist, or ask your regular doctor. Often times the regular doctor, who knows more about your med. history and whatnot can help you more than a dermatologist.
are you a vegetarian? That might have something to do with it. Its worth checking into.
Try dabbing toothpaste or honey on your zits before you go to bed - works wonders.
Overall, remember that beauty counts more on the inside than on the outside, and your true friends will love you for you, and not your skin.
Oh, and try a different kind of foundation, if you wear it. Try to use a kind with lots of water in it. It looks great and doesn't clog pores half as bad. And check your habits - do you prop your chin up a lot with your hands? That might cause the acne as well. Look for the cause, as well as the cure.
This is what I suggest:
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鈥楾 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.
Go to the dermatologist. They will give you RX strength. I hope it works for you.
How long have you been on your Differein, HG?
The reason I ask is that it can take 3 -4 months to help clear your skin of lesions that have not yet surfaced so, while initial breakout is frustrating and will appear to make your acne worse, give your system time to purge itself of what it needs to.
I also see that you've been bouncing from one product to another. Is this PRE Differin or post? I ask because often a patient with go from one skin care system to another only to be constantly frustrated that their skin never seems to clear. In reality, they're never giving their skin a chance to ';catch-up'; as it were. Try only non-comedogenic cleansers and moisturizers such as Cetaphil or Purpose (I personally recommend Cetaphil) - especially for sensative skin.
It is recommended that patients steer clear of any Retin A or Benzoyl Peroxide products while you're using Differin so check your products.

Hope you find this information useful and that you get some clearing very soon. I can sense how terribly it's affecting you..

That's good that you are seeing a dermatologist.
I suffered with mild acne when i was 11 and it gradually got worseover the years. Whilst i was at college i had servere acne and was diagnosed by my dermatologist as having cystic acne, the worst kind. I had no confidence although i was doing a drama BTEC! i felt ugly and worthless. I tried everything but it didn't work. So my specialist put me on a drug called Roaccutane. 'WHAT A MIRACLE' well it was in my experience. There are side effects which you need to read before going on the treatment. I suffered with extremelly dry and flaky skin, this is because the drug reduces the amount of oil you produce. This goes back to normal once treatment finishes. I was also quite stiff as i did alot of dancing so i had to be careful i didn't pull any muscles. I use to wake up with dry gungy eyes in which i needed to bathe and very sore cracked lips. I know this doesn't sound nice, but the treatment worked. I am now 25 and have been free of cystic acne since taking the drug, i am confident and now like the way i look, i actually think i am a really pretty girl now. I am also pursuing a successful career as an actress. Hope this helps, it did for me. Good luck
if you want something form a drugstore buy clean and clear control cleanser with the clean and clear advantage oil-free moisturizer. since you have oily skin use both in the morning and at night. dont use bad makeup! for oily skin use powder. liquid foundation and oily skin just dont work well together. an awesome powder is physicians formula mineral loose powder. it soaks up unwanted oil and helps sensitive and acne prone skin. another thing you can do with any kind of skin type is go with all natural cleansers. try zyporex, its all natural and just for acne. it gives you a really clean feeling. natural can be the best thing because it doesnt contain harsh chemicals that can irritate your face rather than help.
well hopefully your dermatologist figures out something quick
hopefully you eat healthy
that could be a huge factor
good luck
