Answer
Try products from the skin care lines of Clean & Clear and Neutrogena. They have many many many products for oily skin that really work.
For the breakouts, I've listed some things that may help.
- Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment. You can get it at your local drugstore [ Walgreens, WalMart, Jewel etc. ] for $7-$8. 100% of people see results by the next day. It doesn't overdry skin and it reduces size, redness, and number of pimples by the very next day. Just apply it to the affected area three times a day, and by the morning of the next day, you will see results. This is the product that I use.
- Toothpaste [ not the gel kind ]. Apply it to the affected area before you go to bed, sleep with it on, and wipe it off in the morning, and the pimple should be gone.
- Avoid touching your face frequently.
- Avoid stress filled places, if this isn't possible, just try to relax, and not stress. Yoga can help relieve stress.
- Drink lots of water.
- DO NOT pop the pimples. It pushes bacteria deeper into your skin, and can cause scarring [ if you already have scarring, try Neutrogena Pimple Scar Peel ( or something like that ) or try Neosoprin. This product is meant to make scars less noticable ].
- Wash your face daily, at least twice. Once in the morning when you wake up, and once before you go to bed at night.
- Wear light foundation/concealer so it doesn't clog your pores as bad as heavier foundation.concealer would, better yet, just don't wear any foundation/concealer.

Skin Care????

Lately with the crazy weather change here in CA, my skin looks and feels very dry (which is odd b/c i tend to have oily skin). I've never had this problem before...i was thinking of using proactive to help my skin....is that a good idea? Are there any other skin care product that WORK?
Answer
Hey there,
Your skin is dry maybe due to the weather changes or it could be that you have combination skin, which is oily at the T zones and dry at other areas.
Proactive works really well for problems like acne because it helps to dry out the acnes fast. I dont think you should be using Proactive now since your skin feels dry. Try a good moisturizer that will help to replenish your moisture in your skin. I recommend Nivea moisturizer for day time use. It's light and won't feel too greasy, it has a nice refreshing scent and keeps you hydrated for 24 hours.
Alternately, at night, use a good night cream to help moisturize your skin as well as repairing your skin while you sleep. I suggest Nivea's night cream with Q10plus. It helps to regenerate your skin and keep it moisturized and supple.
If your skin is dry, I suggest for you to change your facial cleanser too. Get a gentle cream cleanser for dry skin instead. I suggest Clinique's Comforting Cream Cleanser to remedy your dry skin. Normal cleansers might tend to dry out your skin further. Clinique's is specially formulated for dry skin. For more tips to looking after dry skin, please read further at http://beauty-tyrant.blogspot.com/2007/03/beauty-products-for-dry-skin.html
Also, drink more water. Hydrate yourself with lots of fluids to keep your skin smooth and supple. At least 8-10 glasses of water each day. Drink your water periodically so the water is well absorbed into your body. Avoid drinking coffee and tea. They make your skin more dehydrated.
Get a moisturizing facial mask to replenish lost moisture on your face. Use it about 2 times in a month. I recommend a good facial mask like Nivea's Pampering Honey Mask. Leaves your face fully moisturized after usage.
I hope these beauty tips have helped you. I know by following these tips, you can achieve that beautiful supple skin again. Good luck in caring for your skin. For more beauty secrets, please go to http://beauty-tyrant.blogspot.com/2007/03/7-steps-to-beautiful-radiant-face.html
