Hi Kristen,
I truly understand. Having battled acne forever, I can sympathize with you; people like us, those with this problem wind up having to take a little more time with their skin, but it can be so rewarding.
I personally like Avon's 'Clearskin' products for acne, they aren't harsh the way some blemish control products are.
I also like Proactive, which some people say dries their skin. It works great for me in the summer months.
I like Clarins for oily skin too. Online you can take a skin quiz, and they will recommend products for your skin type based on your answers.
Please note: If possible, it is always good to see a dermatologist to begin a skin care regimen specifically tailored to you. Whatever you choose to do however, donĂ¯Â¿Â½t forget non-comedogenic, these products are non-pore clogging, highly necessary.
My lovely, I send you every success wish, and please join us back here at the Ethnic Beauty forum to let us know what worked. We're all pulling for you!
