What is the best acne fighting face wash?

I have acne on my forehead and chin. It's minimal, but very annoying.What is the best acne fighting face wash?

I've been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it's at.





I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.





I'm 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.





Literally the best acne face wash I've ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It's unique cause of it's herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem.com at the time which was helpful.





You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn't work it will still save you butt on the return policy.





Well good luck and best wishes.
Facewash stays on your face for a very small amount of time so as far as acne fighting goes, a facewash won't contribute much to that. It's more important to get one that takes your makeup off completely, as well as more important what you put on your skin after washing that helps fight clogged pores.





Cetaphyl is an EXCELLENT face wash. It gets very good reviews because it doesn't have as many harsh chemicals in it as some others do! It also comes in ';Normal to Oily'; and ';Dry.'; Here, zip through their website and read for yourself, I'm not here to sell you anything lol


http://www.cetaphil.com/ (It works amazing, seriously)





Then beyond that you want to:


1) EXFOLIATE:(1 x's per week). It increases blood circulation which is excellent for your skin. (If you have oily skin you can do it 2-3 x's per week) and there are many different ways to exfoliate, find a way you like the best or mix it up..again here's a site you check out, it's kinda fun: http://www.womanjunction.com/topic/skinc鈥?/a>


2) WASH your face TWICE A DAY. Overwashing will dry out your skin tricking it to produce more moisture(aka oil) resulting over-oily skin. Your face also needs those oils. It keeps it moist and prevents wrinkles. Point: Do not over wash.


3) NEVER sleep with makeup on, duh.


4) MOISTURIZE: It helps your skin absorb anything else you put on your face afterwards and is an essential step to skin care.


5) Salacylic acids and Benzoyle peroxides are ESSENTIAL to fighting blackheads, whiteheads, bacteria on skin, and clogged pores! (I use Loreal's Acne Response I have both the Blue and the Green kit) It worked just as well as Proactive for me and I LOVE IT. Neutrogena also seems to have a similar line that i noticed contained Salacylic acid AND Benzoyle Peroxide which are very important!





My routine every morning and every night in this order:


1) Wash: I actually do this step twice if I have makeup on. the first wash can actually just spread bacteria, dirt, oil, and makeup around on your face causing more breakouts! yikes!) The second wash I'll use my exfoliating scrub thing to get the remaining dirt off... it kind of looks like this...http://www.shower-curtains.org/facialpad鈥?/a>


2)TONER (I use Cliniques 3-step skincare thing (cleanse+exfoliate+moisturizer) they have so I use that toner, specif to my skin-type, except I don't buy their facewash cuz i prefer cetaphil, it's alot cheaper and works equally well, and their exfoliater isn't as harsh as a scrub, it resembles a toner is very mild) Works great! Removes dead skin cells and also moisturizes. it also primes skin to apply moisturizer. I notice my skin tone always looks more even and smooth when i use it, so I keep using it.


3) Apply any SALACYLIC acid treatment (It can be a bit harsh so either I put on trouble spots or will do an ';all-over'; a couple times a week


4) Morning: Apply moisturizing gel in the morning. Gel because I have oily skin and it keeps oil at bay... At night, I apply a thicker night cream instead of my moisturizer.


5) Morning: SPF!!! Again, I use clinique with SPF of 40. I'm thinking of maybe buying Cetaphils though. SPF is SUPER IMPORTANT! At night, nothing I end it with my night cream!


***and I exfoliate my skin twice a week and do a milk/honey face mask that works wonders. Any left overs I throw into my jetted tub! Milk actually helps eat away dead skin cells and honey is skins miracle worker....google honey and skincare and be ready to be amazed!!!





EDIT:


LIL JOHN: Regular soap is horrible for your skin! It not only dries it out but is way too harsh especially for sensative skin.
I'm studying to be a dermatologist. What you always need in your acne wash is Salicylic Acid. Not very many acne washes have this (surprisingly) except for Clearasil and and Neutrogena. I use Clearasil and it has definitely worked for me and I noticed a difference in just one week. When you start using a new acne wash, it's a good idea to only use it once a day and gradually increase to two or three times a day. You should wash your face before you go to bed and when you wake up in the morning and of course whenever you get sweaty (after sports, work, etc.). After you wash your face, wait 5-15 min. before you put anything on your face. The water could still be on your face or in your pores even if it's not visible, so you have to wait for it to dry. Once you've waited, put Benzoyl Peroxide on your face (can be found in Clearasil Creams). The Benzoyl Peroxide will reduce zit size and redness and prevent acne from coming back. Be careful when you use Benzoyl Peroxide because if it gets in your hair, it could bleach the part it touched. The only good part about that is that it will bleach facial hairs and make them not as visible. You also should not put on Benzoyl Peroxide if you are going out in the sun. If the sun has contact with the Benzoyl peroxide it could bleach your skin and leave a mark. Do not put on Benzoyl Peroxide if you have a sunburn on your face because it will dry out the sunburn and cause pealing. It's best if you use the same brand of products. I do not recommend using toners, astringents, or pads. Exfoliaters are not good for your face unless you have really dry skin. If you don't a lot of dry skin, don't use exfoliaters because it can irritate your acne and cause more acne to appear. Do not pick or pop acne because it will only irritate it and create more acne. Good Luck!!
if it is minimal damage then i suggest using home made masks with rich moisturizers and is really good for scars and buy over the counter stuff those work for me i do suggest neutrogena or clean and clear





but if it is bad acne then i suggest doctor prescription stuff which also work out great!


good luck!:))
Don't use anything harsh. Neutrogena is pretty strong for me that's why I don't use it. I use Dove body bar and use it for my face its perfect it doesn't make it too dry or too oily. Use a facial scrub at least twice a week like st. ives, there formula is good for the price.





I had an allergic reaction to Benzoyl peroxide when I was a teenager so I used anything with Salicylic acid (i don't know how to spell it!) It clears up and don't ';burn'; your skin, go see a dermatologist and they can give you a weaker cream that can take care of it when you need it. Differin worked for me and it diminishes over night it was the fastest way to get rid of them in a hurry.
ok I get quite spotty fairly often and using chemicals in the past made it worse than ever now,as they dried my skin up so bad to fix the short term problem,my skin is over compensating now.I found a BRILLIANT thing that works wonders and is inexpensive...sounds silly,but hear it out.


Porridge oats...VERY cheap


rinse your face in warm water and take a small handful of oats into your hand,add a little water and rub over your acne.Don't scrub,but rub gently in circles.This exfoliates your face.Rinse off and pat dry.Your skin will be soft from the moisterizing properties of the oats and the decrease in grease.2-3 days and spot free keep it up :)


You can even use as a mask if you add honey to it for a boost.
Well to tell you the truth, most acne creams don'tt really work. No matter how well they make seem.





I used to have alot of acne. And I tried it all. Until one day. I figured out that if you rub your face with alcohol every day and put tooth paste on your problem areas every night before you go to bed it really works. ( And yes you have to sleep with it on)
There are a lot of things you can use and it really depends on the type of your skin...Right now im using Nivea Visage Young Bye-Bye Spot and its helping me a lot but my friend tried it and it didn't help her at all so....You're going to have to try some things before you find something that works for you
Johnson %26amp; Johnson's Clean and Clear face wash gel.





Forehead and chin. that means, you have an oily nose too. We call it the oily T-Zone. The above face wash gel is soft on the skin, and will help you a lot.
Same here (ugh how annoying, right?)


anyway, use Stridex (in the red box) and Clearasil Ultra works too... btw, Clearasil Stay Clear doesn't do jack, not worth the money... (these can be found in any drug/ grocery store)


Hope this helps!!! XD
Not so sure of what exactly but I know that simply antibacterial soap that is soft can help you since one cause of acne is bacteria accumulation. The soap is sold in popular stores.
I use Proactive, and it helps me. I've used Biore and Neutrogena too, and they've been okay. Try out different products and systems and see what helps. In the meantime, try and get out in the sun more and keep your hair off your face. Hope I helped!
This may seem a little different but when i was a kid i would take my brothers poop from the toilet and rub it on my face for a month cycle it smelled pretty bad but the results were amazing you should try it!
I find daily scrubs very helpful. I mostly use Neutrogena products. Oil-eliminating scrubs work the best for skin like mine, that's really oily. Plus, try to get some kind of mask. Use it once or twice a week. Hope that helps :)
not clean and clear, thats for sure. 0_o i use it and it sucks. but i dont really have acne but it makes acne worse and if you get it on anything it bleach's the color
Benza Clin. It is extremely expencive. It is $164 I think. It works amazing.
Clean %26amp; Clear is a good product to use, i use it and my skin feels refreshed. I don't get very much acne b.c the product clean your pores, so it prevents break outs.
everybodyyyyyy is different! Your gonna have to keep trying different products untill you find the one that works the best for you. Mine, is proactive...
Olay makes some good products. Stuff like Clearasil and Oxy tend to over dry the skin. Olay products have moisturizers in them which makes it easier on your skin.
I use acne free





I have small bumps on my chin





but they are going away





I also use a facial acne scrub every other night and clean and clear moisturizer
St. Ives Apricot Scrub. It's an excellent exfoliator. :] And they dont test on animals
cetaphil


it really helps!! try it
Acnefree. It works like a charm (:


seriously, it's amazing.
pHisoderm (go to a pharmacy for it)





or, if you have money, Purity cleanser, by Philosophy
Good old soap, but of course it dries out your skin a lot, so use it only if it's really necessary.
Clearasil usually helps best. Try using facial wipes before going to sleep too.





Hope that helps.
I went to the doctors with minimal acne %26amp; he gave me Duac once daily gel - it works a treat!
apple cider vinegar works amazing with acne!





but its more of a toner than a face wash.
Proactive :)
Rubbing alcohol. It will help dry them up. If they are blackheads then you need a scrub. I use Neutrogena Daily Scrub
