I've been battling this Acne since I gave birth to my 2 years old daughter. It looks so awful that I didn't even want to get out from my house without wearing foundation which also makes my acne get worst. Foundation definitely clog up the pores, I don't care if they claim that their products doesn't but trust me it does. I've noticed for years that every time I used foundation, I definitely get a pimples or an acne the next day. But I just don't have the courage to show my face to the public looking so gross even myself feels disgusted by just looking on it. Yes, it's really that awful! When you used to have a clear skin for 20-25 years and then suddenly all these monsters came out on your face, it will freak you out. And wanted to get rid of them immediately. So What I did I went to the closest Dollar General store immediately and bought me a first acne product that I could find. And that was just a waste of money! So, I did buy another product after another. I did use any acne product that I could get in drugstore...From cleanser, toner and moisturizer. Namely: Olay, Clearasil, noxema, Neutrogena, Clean and Clear and even tried the Murad product the one that you will see in tv. Murad is just not for my skin, there are many people claims it works for them but just not on mine. I'm an Asian by the way from Philippines so maybe this product just doesn't work for my skin type and I even tried to use home remedies the honey and toothpaste. All of these doesn't work. Of all the chemicals that I've used together, the result that I got from it is just burning my skin. . So here are the products that works for me after trying dozens of them: Acne free clear skin treatment (24 hour clearing System). This come on 3 bottles. Oil-free Purifying Cleanser, Renewing Toner and Repair lotion. I saw a result within 3 days after using this system. It has advanced micro-benzoyl peroxide that kills of acne bacteria 24 hours. So even your sleeping this treatment still working on your skin it's micro so it does penetrate deeper on your pores. There are some products that I'm using that works great together on this. I'm using Neutrogena Oil- free acne wash cleanser on the morning and then I used the AcneFree 24 hour clearing system at night. This product dried up skin, so I also used Simple for gentle skin moisturizer. I applied this moisturizer 5 minutes after applying the AcneFree repair lotion. Then I also used clean and clear spot treatment for the bigger pimples. This works great, it reduces the size of my pimples the next day. So, now thank God my face is much better...and currently trying to find product for acne scars. So wish me luck for this and I will also share it to you the products that will work for the scar. P.S. All the products that I have mentioned (excluding Murad) can be found in your CVS store or in Walmart. Good luck on Clearing on your acne and blemishes!
