Aveeno is a good product line to try. It worked well for my skin but St. Ives worked even better for me. I have combination skin and it really works well. But getting the right product is only half the battle. You have to develop a good skin care regime. Make sure that you wash your face twice daily; once in the morning and once at night. That's very important especially if you wear make-up alot too (I try not to) because it seeps into your pores and even when you think that you washed it all off, there still are traces of it left on your face.

I use St.Ives peach scrub(medicated),it works pretty well.but another thing to try would be proactive that seems like a good product.

I suggest your daughter see a skin specialist or dermatologist. Her problem will be properly analyzed. A skin hygiene program suiting your daughters condition will be prescribed along with any necessary medication. Over the counter medications are expensive and my not be what she needs. See an expert, you obviously love your daughter and this is your best option.

Try the Mary Kay skin care line with customized skin care products for acne. The best thing to with your skin is always to keep it clean as well as treating the breakouts. This helps prevent breakouts. \n\nThere are five steps to basic skin care not including the acne treatment gel I would have you try. \n\n1. Cleanse\n2. Exfoliate\n3. Tone/Freshen\n4. Moisturize\n5. Protect\n\nThe Mary Kay 3 in 1 cleanser can do the first three steps in one. The fifth step is protect. You want to use an oil free foundation. When your skin is protected with foundation you can wash off the impurities that your skin catches in the air. The foundation catches the irritants and impurities instead of them getting into your pores causing further breakouts. Mary Kay is satasfaction guaranteed. So if you try it and it doesnt work for you you can get different products or your money back. \n\nAlso it is so important that when you are using skin care you use one line be it Mary Kay or Avon or a Walmart brand. They are formulated to work with one another. Mixing products not designed to work together can cause reactions in some people. ;) Hope this was helpful!!\n\nMeganHill@MaryKay.com if you need anything else\nwww.MaryKay.com/MeganHill to check out the line\n\nMegan

I have oily skin too and i found that mild scrubs worked decent, like apricrot scrubs. MILD!! Don't grate your face. I started using proactiv in January and it has worked great! Only had one or two breakouts since I started and it uses light scrubbing and benzoyl peroxide. So if you want to stay on the cheap side, try something that will scrub. Use it once a day and see how your skin reacts, and then up it to twice a day. And definitely use an astringent/toner, one without alcohol. If you can though I highly recommend proactiv.

I'd like to know that answer too. I know something that helped me a bit. Get generic proactive at a Wal-Mart, or drugstore, and have someone scrub your shoulders before you go to bed. It should help clear it up in a few days.\n(If you buy the actual proactive treatment, it is VERY rough on your skin. It'll dry it out and probably make you break out again.)

I am into natural skin care and the only thing I can think of that is in your HOME would be lemon juice.Lemon juice works great to naturally bleach out skin so it should reduce the apearrance of those spots Use juice on a cotton ball or Q-tip to rub into spots before bedtime with a clean washed face-no lotions-and let it stay on all night. Do your regular facial routine in the morning.  If irritation begins, discontinue.

I use that Mary Kay Acne Cream..\n\nand it does WONDERS.

Go to a dermatologist. :] I get my ointment and stuff from there, and it works.\n\nBut seeing that you have the dance pretty soon, I suggest washing your face with a good facial wash (I use celeteque), and cleasing it with a toner afterwards twice a day will do.\n\nOh! And watch out for what you eat.\n\nAnd what my mom used to do with her pimples was apply some toothpast (preferably colgate, I think) unto the pimple, and leave it there overnight. It dries out. However, the downside is you get dark spots. So if you do this one, prepare yourself with whitening cream. I suggest "magic cream" my parents use it. :] Seems to work.\n\nAnother tip I read from a magazine was that you crush an asprin and mix it with a little water to form a paste, and then smear it unto your pimple. I think you leave it there overnight as well. I've never tried this, or seen anyone try this, so I don't know if there's a downside to this.\n \nHope that helped. But you know, if you can't get rid of those pimples in time, try a concealer and such. Ask somone there. Hehe.\n\nWATCH WHAT YOU EAT!!!\n\nBut, I don't really think that this girl will dump you just because of pimples...

Try an over-the-counter non alcholic product made for adults, containing salicyclic (sp?) acid such as Neutrogena Anti wrinkle anti blemish. \nI am only 29, no wrinkles but really oily skin. It works pretty good for me to absorb the oils without over drying the skin like benzoyl Peroxide would, thus avoiding more breakouts!! I also like Biores products, they have a good clay mask and a warming cleanser (feels good on those cold winter dayz!!) I have struggled with acne for almost 20 years..I sympathize and empathize. It can be a self esteem downer!! If this suggestion doesn't work for you, try and try again. Keep trying until you find something that works for you. Don't give up girl, you are beautiful!!

try using a non-abrasive soap such as dove, tone, or ivory.  they seem to be female soaps, but they do thoroughly cleanse the skin.\ngood luck!

Regular soap can dry up your skin, so preferably use one of those liquid soaps speciallly for acne. Clean and clear worked really well for me when I used it before in my teens when I was more prone to acne breakouts. Unfortunately diet is another important part of it. I always hear lots of water helps keep a nice fresh face.

Neutogenia has a safe micro abrasion product that can exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells.I would use a small amount on an inconspicuous area to make sure you are not allergic.You also may need to change soap.Dial has a soap with Vit E. You may need to use a soap for sensitive skin.There are many good prescription products available.See a dermatologist.Acne is extremely devastating to young people and their self esteem.Don't scrub the skin too roughly.Use a soft washcloth and wash thoroughly and gently and rinse thoroughly.Get plenty of rest,drink alot of water and juice.Avoid stress and fried,fatty foods
