Q: Whats the Best Acne Product?

Especially eHealthy
I do not want spam on this post but i am just wondering what are good products? Ive been using st ives medicated scrub for like years but when i got pregnant with my daughter my face broke out really bad and it still breaks out now and shes 5 mths old, i am on birth control, loestrin and it doesnt help but i dont wanna switch pills again, the one that worked for me and my acne isnt available here, i do not want to see a dermatologist for it either. Right now i use the st ives and the aveeno foam that is hypo allergenic. But it doesnt seem to do much, i have the ponds moisturizer and makeup remover lotions too. I am allergic to neutrogena though i break out with tiny lil bumps all over my face so i cant use any of there products. Are there ones that work better that arent like super expensive? I think my face is somewhat oily not like really bad but still, lately ive been breaking out soooo much and i feek icky and gross. It seems like to me i like the st ives cuz it feels like its scraping dirt off my face rather then just the foam alone doesnt feel like its doing anything but i know that the st ives is prob drying my face out, does that make acne worse if your face is really dry?

Hi,

tea tree oil products are good, such as their face wash and cleanser/toner. If you cannot find the brand called "Tea Tree" then many other brands have products which have tea tree in. Use morning and night for about one month and this should help to reduce and get rid of spots completly. This product helps to balance out your skin so it should not be so oily too.

Hope this helps.
