Products do not work

I have tried the cleaning pads, the creams, everything. None of it has ever done a thing for my acne. It just dries out my skin and causes irritations. I have just wasted my money.

I think consulting your doctor first before trying any product is better. They know better what is best for our skin. My friends tried washing their face with warm water.

I used to think the same thing. Every single product I used yielded the same results...and then I found Olay Total Effect Anti Aging/Blemish. This has worked wonders for me. However, I am gonna start getting into home remedies more than anything, such as fresh fruit and things that are chemical free.

I am hooked on Olay Total Effect Anti Aging/Blemish face wash as well. I notice I hardly ever have breakouts now that I use it daily. I also enjoy Clean and Clear advantage invisible blemish patch. Whenever I get the occasional blemish I will apply Clean and Clear and in the matter of a day or two it is gone. I have never used anything that clears my blemishes up so quickly.

Yes I have noticed that it can be very difficult to find a product that will work well.

I know it's frustrating, but don't give up. Everyone's skin is different, and what works for one won't work for another. Proactiv worked for me without drying my skin. I wish I could promise it would work for you too, but I can't. Don't be afraid to see a doctor. It won't hurt anywhere other than your pocketbook

I guess it all depends on your type of skin. i have tried a few different lotion products and they seem to have worked really well for me. I would consult your doctor and keep on trying. Something is bound to work.

My skin is an average fairness. I am not overly sweaty. I stay clean and everything. But these products just never work. I have yet to find any that work and I have used several of the main brands.

I have yet to actually find a single product that works either. Some of them may prevent any outbreaks, but none actually clears the stuff up. It is a scam.
