How can I cure my adult acne?
I'm 20 years old and suffer from mild adult acne. I have combination skin with an extremely oily t-zone. I have clogged blackheads, whiteheads and a several pimples. Even though I cleanse, tone, and moisturize 2x a day it doesn't make any difference. I don't wear heavy makeup, I wear neutrogena skin clearing foundation on days when I need coverage. I never fall asleep w/ makeup on. I change my pillow sheets 2x a week & never ever touch my face. I don't eat very healthy or exercise or drink that much water. I've tried every single product that I can think of and none work for me, I'm also allergic to benzoyl peroxide. These are the products I've used: Numerous Clean & Clear products, Oxy Pads, Clearasil, Astringments, Numerous Neutrogena facial cleansers, Tea tree oil(just about anything I could find at a drugstore). I've even tried Proactive and Skin I.D. Both of these products didn't work and I got an allergic reaction from the benzoyl in them. I've even gone a couple months without wearing makeup just to see if my acne would clear up. I have a very stressful job that never gets any easier. I know that these are all very important factors for good skin. I really feel like there is no hope and that I will always have acne. I feel very embarrased and lack self esteem. When I break out I don't want to be seen by anyone. I actually do cry sometimes because I wonder what I'm doing wrong and I don't feel it's fair that I try so hard and there's very little effectiveness. My acne clears up sometimes but soon enough there's new blemishes. I'm at my wits end, someone help me, only serious answers. 10 points to whoever is the most informative and can help me out. Thanx.
