What acne treatments or products are there?
Take a walk down the skin care aisle of any local pharmacy and you'll see that there is an overwhelming display of topical blemish treatments to choose from. Keep in mind that the majority of acne treatments available in retail locations are designed to be used by adolescents who are going through hormonal changes that are causing their sebaceous glands to be overactive. A vast amount of acne sufferers actually have dry skin and so it is not always a good idea to simply walk down the skin care aisle and expect to find your miracle treatment sitting there staring you in the face. With such a wide range of products to choose from, it is nearly impossible to decipher one from the next. Look closely, and you'll notice that many of these treatments use the same active ingredients. Benzoyl Peroxide, Sulphur, and Salicylic Acid are among the most commonly found active ingredients. Products from Zenmed, Murad, Proactiv and Clearsil are considered to be good for treating acne.

We lived in the same home, we ate the same foods as each other, used the same brand of soap and skin care products, etc., yet she had a lot of acne and I had none.The same with my children when they were teens.
