I'm 14 and i've had acne for,i'd say, 2 years now.
I've tried almost everything. I've tried many Clearasil products, many Clean&Clear products, many Neutrogena products, Phisoderm(probably spelled it wrong), Acnefree, Proactive(which was guaranteed to work). I've also tried the hot/cold water treatmnet, the lemon juice thing, and i know it's bad but the toothpaste thing, i even tried to make my own mask(my face smelled like vinegar for 2 days).
I recently went to the dermatologist, maybe in july, and he gave my this morning and night cream......didn't work. I just recently went again like beginning of september, and he gave my antibiotics and Retin -A- Micro. I'm still on both and they don't seem to be working. I know it takes a whlie for it to work, but i'm not optimistic. My acne lowers my self esteem. As a result, i'm shy and not outgoing like i normally am. My face always looks red and bumpy, and not to mention OILY! People always make fun of me, and i'm tired of it! I know you'll say, oh don't listen to what people say, but i do! If you don't have acne then you don't know how i feel. Oh, and most people think that ance has to do with not being clean and not taking showers. Also eating chocolate and greasy foods makes you have acne. I can't stand when people have no clue what they're talking about!
Do any of you know anything that i can get that isn't expensive and i can get it easily? Also, please anything to make me feel better!!!
