Please help acne, clogged pores?

Tea tree oil worked ok but didn't help prevent my breakouts, proactiv dried out my skin, the wave didn't help with acne. Im 13 and have oily skin with enlarged pores on my nose and cheeks. Please help me!!!!! Also I have clogged pores on my nose so if you can help with that please do.Please help acne, clogged pores?
The best advice I can give you is to be consistent with your skin care routine. Wash your face every morning and every night, no exceptions, no skipping, ever. As for what to use, everyone's skin is different and will react differently to products, but I can tell you what has worked for me.





I'm in my late 20's and have had moderate but persistant acne since I was your age. I started using the Neutrogena Skin ID products over the summer and my skin is completely clear for the first time. As for the clogged pores on your nose and cheeks, I had the same problem. They take a little longer to get rid off than acne, so you have to be persistant and patient.





For clogged pores, I use Biore Nose and Face strips (the combo pack) twice a week. I use a facial scrub with salicylic acid (St. Ives Apricot Scrub: Blemish and Blackhead Control) 3-4 times a week, in place of my cleanser on that day. And I would also recommend using a deep cleansing mask once a week. (I'm still looking for a good one) This should slowly get the junk out of your pores and make them appear smaller, as well as preventing future breakouts.





Also, even though you have oily skin it's important to use a light, non-irritating, oil-free moisturizer daily. If you dry out your skin too much, it will over compensate by producing even more oil, which can lead to more clogged pores and breakouts.





Good luck! Just stick with it and you'll find something that works for you.Please help acne, clogged pores?
1. Eat lots of vegetables and fruits.





2. Drink 10 glasses of water in a day.





3. Exercise 30 minutes a day.





4. Apply fuller's earth on your face like a face mask weekly thrice.





5. Apply 2 pinch of turmeric, 2 tbsp of milk, 1 tbsp of lime juice mix it well and apply, you will get a result with in 2 weeks. your face will be clear, so best of luck
im 13 too and have ance and oily skin so i can relate to this. i've found that using a foam face wash is really good for oily skin. try to use a foam face wash twice a day (morning and night) to control oilyness and try not to touch your face during the day as this causes spots. hope this helps =)
stop eating junky oily foods...


and do some regular home made facials like the ones on this website

THIS IS MY LONG ANSWER FOR ALL OILY SKIN/ACNE PROBS...TRYING TO COVER ALL I KNOW ABOUT ACNE/SPOT PROBLEMS FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE...SO HOPEFULLY THERE'LL BE SOMETHING HERE TO HELP!!! SOME MIGHT NOT BE RELEVANT DEPENDING ON YOUR SEX BUT I HOPE SOMETHING'LL BE HERE FOR YOU!





I'm 35 and I still get spots/pimple clusters from time to time and even when they go, they leave reddish marks for ages and my skin looks blotchy.





I use clean and clear or neutrogena clear skin - both contain salicylic acid which prevents breakouts and gradually evens the skin tone out too. And crazy as it sounds - the toothpaste things works! Put on a blob at night and put a bit of tissue over it so it doesn't make a mess. I dunno how it works but it does!





Any female with spots I'd recommend trying dianette or yasmin contraceptive pills because if it's hormonal, that can sort out the kind of hormonal pimples you might get monthly!





Be careful what products you use in your hair if it's long - certain conditioners have causes me to break out at times.





Also I'd recommend taking a 100% multi vitamin/mineral complex and Omega 369 oils every day because that ensures you're getting the right nutrition and also, the omega oils improve blood flow.





It's an 'old wives tale' type rememdy - but a spoonful of cider vinegar and honey in hot water 3 times a day is meant to help EVERYTHING. It tastes nice too...kinda like honey and lemon X





Also...keep your hydration right by drinking plenty of water, avoiding caffeine and alcohol and too much salt!





Another suggestion is the scrub you can get called 'resurface' or something like that - made by L'oreal. You only use it a couple of times a week (and use at night because it makes your face red!). It really works not just with the colouring but also the texture - smoothes it back out. It comes with it's own moisturiser which I don't use but I use the scrub at night a couple of times a week and put bio oil on which it supposed to help clear scarring and even skin tone.





Don't use harsh scrubs and peroxide products daily like some people do; that can dry your skin and make produce MORE oil...just exaccerbating the problem.





And my final suggestion is 'sheer cover' mineral foundation. You see it on infomercials a lot...tacky I know! But it really works. You can buy it on eBay too so it's easy for you to get some to try it out. You use the tiniest amount but because it doesn't settle into enlarged pores and it contains minerals that reflect light, it disguises any kind of 'scarring' and also it stops you getting spots because it doesn't block pores. The minerals in it reflect light a bit too which acts as a kind of concealer. It's hard to explain but it's fantastic. Just make sure not to use too much - and apply with a kabuki brush starting from the outside and working in so you don't end up with an over made up nose!





I know people say make up's a no no - but because this doesn't block pores and has the added effect of stopping you touching your face too much, I think it's good. You can wear it on its own too and as long as you apply it minimally, it covers but doesn't look like you've got make up on.





Good luck with it hun XX





PS - if you can get them, clean %26amp; clear do these blotting paper things - in the uk I find I have to order them in from Hong Kong or somewhere cos they stopped doing them here - but they're REALLY good.





And if your face gets really greasy, just blot with a tissue if you can't find those. Some tissues are to fluffy so I tend to carry around a few sheets of kitchen roll for the purpose!!!





PPS - If you get your skin relatively under control, try using '21 days Fade Cream' (which I get from eBay) because it quickly clears up any scarring. I can only use it once a day though because otherwise (even though it's a 'cream-gel') it can make my skin a bit greasy again so I tend to use that at night but only during periods that my skin's doing 'good'!
