I actually suffered with pretty bad acne sometimes severe through highschool. I used all kinds of cleansers, and even prescription ointments and even antibiotic pills. This was in my mid to late teens, even early twenties. The MAIN THING and people never believe me when I say this, that helped at least REDUCE the severity of my acne was to simply Stop Washing the living crap outta my face. To me, this seemed sooo counterintuitive. As I'm sure may are saying right now: Yeah right, My face will be oilier than ever!! This is crazy. BUT. For me, it was all the CRAP I was throwing on my face, I never gave it the chance to heal itself and cleanse itself with its natural ability to do so. I NEVER "wash" my face; i.e., use soap. MAyeb, a couple times a year. I just use.... Water!!! Yup. Plain old fashioned clean fresh water... Give it a try! What do you have to lose but "maybe" a few more pimples... *actually, it may get slightly worse before it gets better, as with most things that heal.

YES that's one of the biggest things is stop washing your face as if that will help by doing with more harsh chemicals and more repetition!
