I used to have reaaaaaaaaaally bad acne-- the kind that swells and pusses everywhere. Not the kind that gets all dry and flaky, but it was all over my face and red all the time. D;
I've tried most drugstore facewashes, cremes, ointments, and things. I swear. Biore makes the best acne treatment products out of any of them. If you've got reoccuring/chronic problems I'd suggest giving them a try. I have a really nice orange face wash/scrub. Use it once a day and my skin got so clear~ :3
I still have problems though if I eat a lot of chocolate. haha. that's the only time I seem to get pimples now though. goodthingchocolateisgross.
I've got some friends who went and got some dermatologist drugs for their faces-- acutane I believe it's called? It worked for them, but suuuuper dries out your face, and you gotta keep putting lotion on all the time.
