How can a 14 year old girl achieve clear healthy skin? what skin care products should i use?
Products here in Australia might be different to those in the US, but my nephews and nieces use Johnson %26amp; Johnson Clean 'n' Clear, both the foaming face wash and the bath bar, if you have that it is HIGHLY recommended.





As for foods ~ drink lots of fresh water, about eight to ten glasses a day. This will help your body expel toxins and keep your skin smooth and soft.





Make sure your diet contains plenty of FRESH fruit and vegetables, these are nature's way of fighting all sorts of diseases and conditions, including acne.





Try to get into the fresh air and go for a brisk walk once or twice a day, this is very helpful to keep the body's healing processes working and clear up scarring etc. It will also help your hair and eyes look clean and bright, making any acne less noticeable.





Avoid any exrtremes such as harsh cleansing routines or over exposure to the sun, because at 14 your skin is still growing and harsh measures can cause long term damage.





And, is your acne does persist, you can get great treatments from the doc ~ but they usually only work for acne caused by medical problems, so try the other stuff first.





Good luck and best wishes :-)
Reply:use proactive, its the best acne treatment out there..hands down
Reply:I recommed this all the time to people who ask this question on here.. but my sis has really bad acne on her chin and she got the Acne Free at walmart for 20 dollars and it helped ALOT%26gt; but if your only 14 you prob don't have the money but i use rubbing alcohol on my face at night.. it seems to keep it pretty clear and its under 1 dollar at the store!
Reply:Water, Water, Water. It takes toxics out of skin and body. You should notice within a couple of months about two.
Reply:first thing: never ever mash





i used solodyn or something like that


you take it by mouth


its supper expensive, but it works


and if you have insurance, you can get it for like nothing





good luck
Reply:i think that you should make your own mask and see how it works you can make it with natural stuff like honey and bananas and apples all mashed up i got that from Americas next top model and that how there face gets so clear and if you eat a lot of grease you should stop like fast food and fried because that is what gives you that.
Reply:I don't use any of that stuff(Clearisol, Pro Active, etc.) It honestly would depend on what type of skin she has. I'm very fair skinned and I use Nieva (blue bottle) each time after I wash my face. It's not a greasy formula and it dries fast. The best thing to do in my opinion, it wash the face with warm water with washcloth. Eat foods that have a high content of vitamin A such as carrots. Vitamin A helps a great deal with the skin. Best of luck!
Reply:Drink lots of water, and it's your lucky day because I have the skin care answer. =)





Glytone. Best. Stuff. Ever.





It cleared my skin in a week, and now, 4 months later, I still have crystal clear skin! It's not cheap, but it's worth it, and it works. There is obviously no cheap over-the-counter skin product or everyone would have clear skin. This is formulated with glycolic acid, and it will transform your skin to brand new. It's amazing, I suspect it's a celebrity secret.





You can buy it online, at a dermatologist's office who carries the line, or at a cosmedical spa. I found it through yahoo local by typing in glytone.





ps- the first week will be irritating (some burning and stinging) while your skin builds a tolerance for glycolic acid, but it's worth it.





I broke out at age 10. At 24 I went through accutane, which kept me clear for three years, and then broke out again. Glytone not only cleared my skin, but it changed it. It works. It's your face and it's worth it!! Also, treat yourself to a deep cleaning facial at a spa that uses glycolic products.





I wish so badly that I knew about this product in high school. Actually, that was over 10 years ago and it didn't exist!! But I am very thankful for it now. I really hope it works for you!
Reply:i really like acne free which is the off brand of proactive basically does the same thing [:
Reply:drink LOTS of water( that doe NOT include coke or fanta or those things) ( mineral water is okay) ( drink tap water. it's the best) sleep between 10:00pm and 11:15pm an don't wear that much makeup.
Reply:It's a myth that what you eat affects acne. so don't worry about that. But it would be best to not eat too much oily foods since this is what your dealing with. Stuff like pro-active, clean and clear, everything over the counter will only work if you have like 3 zits on your face. If you want clear skin, go to a dermatologist and see what they recommend. Dermatologists are genius. I used to have the worst acne ever. seriously, it was probably way worse than you, but my mom finally talked me into going to the dermatologist, I don't have acne anymore.
