I have had moderate acne for about a year now..
I've tried most OTC products, and it's finally started to clear up..
Buuuut, I dunno what's going on, I've been using the same products on my face for about 4 weeks now, and the acne is coming back.
Anyone have any recommendations?
It's around my mouth and on my forehead, and it's really gross.. I just want clear skin.

Use a pore minimizer.
What are you using?
Salicyc acid?
or Benzoyl peroxide?
Use the opposite.
Try anything by Clean and Clear or Biore.
Don't OVER wash your face.

I'm using benzoyl peroxide creams, peel off masques and clay masks.
My mom won't take me to the dermatologist..
I'll try clean and clear..

Warm water to open up your pours then cold water to close them. Just don't keep touching your face.
