What. The. Hell.

I mean, honestly. I wash my face in the morning. Wash it pretty damn throughly in the evening, and use exfoliating cream, and use acne lotion, and THEY DONT GO AWAY. Incredibly annoying. And I also have some pretty bad backzits.

Does anyone know how I could get rid of these freaks of nature or do I have to wallow in my own secum for the next four years of puberty?

you should try using benzoyl peroxide.
its good to use a moisturizing lotion or face wash like cetaphil.
drink alot of water. do not drink milk or eat anything with milk. Milk has hormones which cause you to break out even more. dont wash your face too much.morning and evening is enough. you might strip away the natural moisture your face needs.
Important tip of all: do not pop your zits you will cause scarring
if this does happen use apple cider vinegar on your face at night before you go to sleep.
it stings but it really gets rid of scars.
if this doesnt work there's always the dermatologist.
i had bad acne too but its gone now. i hope this helps.

You don't know how much water I already drink... it has to be on the 2 gallon mark. Or more.

But thanks, mate. :D

I've been having the same problem. I break out in the same places on my skin and the zits go away for a bit, but then they come back in the same spot and it can take weeks for them to go away just to have them come back again. Along with that I have a few back zits that I can't seen to get rid of. I use acne soap and cream and all that stuff, I wash my face every night and I use a cloth to wash my shoulders and back but they never seem to stay away for more than a week or two..

"Strong stuff that should work"... I could say that for any of the mexican drug lords...

Anywho, thanks everyone! I think I'll make a trip to the dermatologist as soon as I can. :D

I've had bad acne since I was 12. I'm 16 now, nearly 17 and they're still going strong, but recently I've had short periods where they're not bad at all.
I went to the doctors about it, and they gave me some cream and antibiotics, which didn't work.
Try not to touch your face or squeeze them, as this will make them worse. Also try and have a shower every day if you have long hair.
When washing your face, don't use soap, as it is very oily and will clog up your pores, which is the opposite of what you want.
