Avon has a great skin regimine that you all should look into, it is similar to the Proactiv but is less money, and has a better outcome.

Total Effect Soothing Serum is excellent for acne. It actually has an anit-inflammatory ingredient and is great for skin lighting.. I use the serum twice a day, but apply the serum to my breakouts a few times during the day..... The serum takes the red out of the acne in just a few hours and clears it up by the next day... if not by that evening.

Just wanted to add that all of the above was over the course of 6 years. I have been using the clinique for a year now.

I've also tried many products over the years. I believe I'm still searching my favorites. But I wanted to know if any others have experienced what I have with some of these products. I tried Proactiv for a few weeks and took it back for the 60 money back gaurantee. You know why? Not because it "just did nothing for me..." but my face broke out in hives, and my eyes were swollen shut. I later realized that while this product may work for some people, I am allergic to the product ingredient, Benzoyl Peroxide. In fact, I can't use any products containing BP. So, I mainly stick to products that contain Salicylic Acid, which is more gentle. I like products that actually have a higher concentration of the ingredient SA.

I am in my early 40's and still suffer from acne, especially the cystic type which is very difficult to deal with. I have used Proactiv and found it to be a life saver. After the first month I noticed a difference and within 6 months it was as if I had never had an acne problem. Proactiv isn't as expensive as alot of products and the money you do spend is really worth it. I really recommend using the White Tea moisturizer along with the basic 3 pc. routine. It absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feel and doesn't lead to more breakouts like many moisturizers can do. Good luck I know how frustrating it can be.

To whomever wrote about Total Effect Soothing Serum... who makes it? and where can it be bought?... what is the cost?

You may have already done this, but have you seen a dermatologist? You'd get a prescription that might initially cost more than an OTC treatment, but it'd be cheaper in the long run than trying all those other products.

I'm only 13 and haven't tried a huge variety of brands, but I've been lucky enough to find some really good (and not too expensive!) products that have done wonders for my complexion. (For reference --- > I have fair/light skin which is sensitive and burns easily. I don't suffer from blackheads very often, but occasionally I'll get a huge, painful whitehead or an itchy red pimple, usually on my nose/cheeks.)
