Skin products

Okay, I know for a fact (lol) that I can't be the only one with skin issues on this board. I recently came across a product(s) via amazon's reviews and I'm in love with it. I have issues with acne and have had issues with it all my life. I've used ProActive, Clinique, and Retin-A. ProActive was good for a few weeks, then somehow my acne would grow resistant to it and would not go away. Retin-A would just dry out my skin (it's more for the spot remover) and Clinique by itself is okay, but it doesn't work as well as I'd hope.

As I said, I found a couple products on amazon that so far, have cleared nearly all of my scars (old acne scars that never healed) and almost all of my acne.

After I use my clinique facial scrub (in the shower), I use this product:

Amazon.com: FungaSoap Pedifix Liquid with Tea Tree oil - 6 OZ: Health & Personal Care

It is known to remove fungus, but it also clears away bacteria from the skin remarkably fast. It also leaves your skin feeling very clean.

The other product I use is after I put on my Clinique lvl 3 toner then Oil Control Moisturizer.

The product is this:

Amazon.com: Tea Tree Oil - 100% Pure Australian - 2 oz.: Health & Personal Care

100% Tea Tree oil. I gently and sparingly put this on my face and anywhere else on the body that I've noticed spots. I have a very sensitive nose and the oil is VERY pungent. Luckily, it goes away in a few seconds. You just rub this in all over your face.

(For those with dry skin, I suggest: [not on your face] Amazon.com: Tea Tree Oil Foot Repair Balm: Health & Personal Care)

Anyone else use any products to help remedy their skin conditions? I'm open to other suggestions.

Get a prescription for Duac. That stuff works fantastically.

DUAC Topical Gel - Home

Isotretinoin - use it, love it, if your issues just won't go away. For general facial skin care I use any of the Neutrogena non-comedogenic face scrub/washes - they come in the little sky blue bottles.

Cerave - face wash

Cerave - face lotion

really good stuff (Superior compared to cetaphil)

This is not medicine just something you can buy at rite aid. use this stuff instead of regular soap/lotion on your face.
