For me, it%26#039;s not so much about what I consume, but what products I apply to my skin.
I use the Clear Skin Regimen at http://www.acne.org. It%26#039;s a non-profit (so it%26#039;s free), the guy who created used to suffer from pimples himself. The system works wonders on my face, and its helped countless other people. The best part is that you don%26#039;t have to order or buy any expensive treatments, everything you need for the Regimen can be found at your local drugstore. Find out more at the website.
In general, for clear skin it helps if you: don%26#039;t touch/pick at your skin, drink lots of water, wash your hair frequently, change your pillowcases, exercise, wear little make-up (or if needed, hypo-allergenic makeup), and minimize stress.|||Reduce or eliminate sugars, caffeine, nicotine, hydrogenated oils, processed wheats, and dairy. Drink plenty of water, fresh food -- fruits and vegetables. Laugh, and have fun with life. I%26#039;ve enclosed a few sites to get you started. ;)|||try here for acne tips|||Most people think a bad diet, lots of sugar, and greasy food cause acne. I%26#039;ve heard acne is something set up genetically. There are no foods that can help clear up the skin. Water of course will help keep you healthier, but I don%26#039;t think it has an effect on break-outs. Talk to your doctor about some solutions. Acutain (I think that%26#039;s how you spell it), is a very popular choice of medicine to help clear up and prevent acne. However, any time you use medication for treatment, there could be side effects.

Can anybody recommend a good moisturiser for acne prone skin?
I would say Dermalogica have some of the BEST products around. They cater for all different skin types and conditions. I use a Dermalogica oil control moisturiser and find it great.
Dermalogica don%26#039;t sell over the counter, you have to go to a salon and no therapist should sell the products without a free consultation (this is to meet the individual needs of the client).

Has anyone tried bare minerals make-up? How is it for acne prone skin?
Bare Minerals (aka Bare Escentuals) is THE ONLY foundation / cover-up I will use on my face. I have very oily skin, and am therefore prone to breakouts, and I am actually able to fall asleep still wearing this make-up and wake up the next day problem-free. The claims they make about the product actually contributing to the health of your skin, in my estimation, are correct. There are no preservatives, talc, etc. that are damaging and comedogenic (pore-clogging). The finished look is very clean, not cakey or artificial. The only negative I can see is that the make-up line is a little pricey ($25 for the foundation, $22 for the application brush on sephora.com), but a little goes a long way, and I find that it lasts me a good long time. If you%26#039;re just starting out with this line, try one of their starter kits. For $60, you get 2 shades of foundation, a Mineral Veil, the Warmth bronzer, 3 different brushes, and some other free stuff. It%26#039;s a great introduction to Bare Minerals, and it%26#039;s the kit that got me hooked. Hope this helps!|||I felt that bare minerals make-up does not cover up much...so what%26#039;s the point?

What is the best minerals foundation for acne prone skin?
If you have oily and acne skin, you should use mineral based makeups since they are light, gentle on the skin, won%26#039;t clog pores. Also, the minerals have anti-aging and sun protection properties that are good for the skin. Most skin care experts and dermatologists recommend to use mineral makeups.

You first need to address this issue with oily skin. I recommend and use Coonobabe
For the oily skin use either their Kepaya (papaya cleanser) or Pepino (cucumber based) cleanser followed by either their Savila toner, Seng %26amp; Sang toner. After washing with cleanser, I pat dry with clean towel, then apply toner and allow to air dry. I repeat this on hot/humid days, but it%26#039;s worth it since my skin is clean to the touch now. Suggest you stay away from acne cleansers since those tend to be as harsh as hand soap. Every time I%26#039;ve used them my skin would get bone dry, flaky, and itchy. Strangely, my skin would start to over produce oil, and get breakouts with super dry skin. So I don%26#039;t use those anymore.
For foundation suggest you try their Savila base, then lightly top it off with their Happy Ending powder. Try to avoid putting on blush, just stick to lipstick/gloss, eyeshadow and some light foundation applications. Hope this helps.
Google Coonobabe
btw - they ship 4 free, made in USA, do not test on animals - a must for me.|||stop wearing makeup.
thats why you have the acne that you have and oily skin because by using cover up or foundation like every day your clogging your pores so just stop using that and just use cream. like when you wake up in the morning put cream on your face and THATS IT! if you wanna put like eyeliner or mascara or eyeshadow on then go ahead but dont put cover up or foundation.

Meaning your body might be too acidic and the excess acid or toxins are secreting out of your skin. An alkalizing diet consists of more green leafy vegetables and no meat, fast or junk foods. Below is a list of alkalizing foods.
This product will help too.
Kandesn Skin Care and Cosmetics - Kandesn Skin Care and Cosmetics - no animal products, by-products, or petroleum products such as mineral oil. Kandesn products are uniquely formulated with herbs, emollients, plant extracts and essential oils. Only Sunrider uses plant derived Squalane, a natural component also found in human skin with antioxidant and immune-stimulating properties. Kandesn%26#039;s Squalane is from extra virgin olive oil.
Looking younger is not just a matter of what we eat through our mouths, but also what we %26quot;eat%26quot; through our skin. Our skin is the largest organ of the human body, which means it absorbs nutrition and eliminates waste and toxins. Just like %26quot;junk food%26quot; can bring degeneration to cells, what we put on our skin can help OR hinder the skin%26#039;s regeneration. Sunrider%26#039;s Kandesn herbal skin care products will regenerate deeply BELOW the skin%26#039;s surface. Taking care of our skin is not just a %26quot;vanity%26quot; issue; it%26#039;s vital to good health! Sunrider takes extremely meticulous care to create Kandesn products of the highest quality, using only the most natural regenerative ingredients in all their skin care and cosmetics.
Why Choose Kandesn?
WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE?
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that exactly matches the pH of your skin (pH matched, not just pH balanced-that is still too alkaline for the skin). Good bacteria and the body%26#039;s protective acidic mantle on the surface of the skin is destroyed and stripped by using too-alkaline soaps. Even expensive name-brand soaps and %26quot;natural%26quot; herbal soaps register high alkalinity on the pH scale. This leaves the skin open to harmful bacteria (causing skin problems) as well as drying it out (leading to wrinkling, and the necessity for more lotions and creams), and, with oily skin, an increased production of oil.
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that features squalane in all its creams, lotions, and cosmetics. Squalane is the oil closest to our skin and is processed from pure, extra-virgin olive oil. Squalane nourishes the skin and is the only oil that mixes smoothly with water, is quickly absorbed, and allows the skin to breathe freely. Squalane costs $100 per pound versus mineral oil (usually in leading skin care brands) costing only five cents per pound.
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that has a properly balanced oil\water ratio to regenerate the skin resulting in %26quot;one skin care program%26quot; for all skin types. Just like our regenerative Sunrider foods, Kandesn skin care and cosmetics bring the skin into balance and harmony.
Kandesn DOES NOT USE-lanolin, mineral oil, paraffin, petroleum by-products, recycled restaurant grease, or animal by-products from rendering plants (dead animals) as do most cosmetic companies. The molecules of these common ingredients are too large to be absorbed by human skin and can be toxic. Used as moisturizers, they cause clogged pores, blackheads, and poor respiration. Skin needs to breathe.
Kandesn is very concentrated-only small dabs are really needed. With all Kandesn products, a little goes a VERY, VERY long way. Sunrider is the only food company that produces their own entire line of skin care and cosmetics %26quot;under the same roof%26quot; as the foods, with the same pharmaceutical standards.

Although it might seem that citrus fruits would have an acidifying effect on the body, the citric acid they contain actually has an alkalinizing effect in the system.|||Leave the foundation on you house... just go with very light makeup, better for your skin, and better looking on you.

Anything online or on ebay that does not contain bismuth. Look for makeup that only have 3 ingredients: zinc, titanium, and mica. more stuff will cause more problems. That%26#039;s my personal experience. And mineral makeup stay on for a long time. great on oily skin. you can even swim in it. it can easily be removed with water. Everydayminerals.com has some good stuff. and the samples are free too. Good luck
oops I don%26#039;t live in singapore. I have no idea|||You probably need to change your diet to be more alkaline. Meaning your body might be too acidic and the excess acid or toxins are secreting out of your skin. An alkalizing diet consists of more green leafy vegetables and no meat, fast or junk foods. Below is a list of alkalizing foods.
This product will help too.
Kandesn Skin Care and Cosmetics - Kandesn Skin Care and Cosmetics - no animal products, by-products, or petroleum products such as mineral oil. Kandesn products are uniquely formulated with herbs, emollients, plant extracts and essential oils. Only Sunrider uses plant derived Squalane, a natural component also found in human skin with antioxidant and immune-stimulating properties. Kandesn%26#039;s Squalane is from extra virgin olive oil.
Looking younger is not just a matter of what we eat through our mouths, but also what we %26quot;eat%26quot; through our skin. Our skin is the largest organ of the human body, which means it absorbs nutrition and eliminates waste and toxins. Just like %26quot;junk food%26quot; can bring degeneration to cells, what we put on our skin can help OR hinder the skin%26#039;s regeneration. Sunrider%26#039;s Kandesn herbal skin care products will regenerate deeply BELOW the skin%26#039;s surface. Taking care of our skin is not just a %26quot;vanity%26quot; issue; it%26#039;s vital to good health! Sunrider takes extremely meticulous care to create Kandesn products of the highest quality, using only the most natural regenerative ingredients in all their skin care and cosmetics.
Why Choose Kandesn?
WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE?
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that exactly matches the pH of your skin (pH matched, not just pH balanced-that is still too alkaline for the skin). Good bacteria and the body%26#039;s protective acidic mantle on the surface of the skin is destroyed and stripped by using too-alkaline soaps. Even expensive name-brand soaps and %26quot;natural%26quot; herbal soaps register high alkalinity on the pH scale. This leaves the skin open to harmful bacteria (causing skin problems) as well as drying it out (leading to wrinkling, and the necessity for more lotions and creams), and, with oily skin, an increased production of oil.
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that features squalane in all its creams, lotions, and cosmetics. Squalane is the oil closest to our skin and is processed from pure, extra-virgin olive oil. Squalane nourishes the skin and is the only oil that mixes smoothly with water, is quickly absorbed, and allows the skin to breathe freely. Squalane costs $100 per pound versus mineral oil (usually in leading skin care brands) costing only five cents per pound.
Kandesn is the only skin care and cosmetic line that has a properly balanced oil\water ratio to regenerate the skin resulting in %26quot;one skin care program%26quot; for all skin types. Just like our regenerative Sunrider foods, Kandesn skin care and cosmetics bring the skin into balance and harmony.
Kandesn DOES NOT USE-lanolin, mineral oil, paraffin, petroleum by-products, recycled restaurant grease, or animal by-products from rendering plants (dead animals) as do most cosmetic companies. The molecules of these common ingredients are too large to be absorbed by human skin and can be toxic. Used as moisturizers, they cause clogged pores, blackheads, and poor respiration. Skin needs to breathe.
Kandesn is very concentrated-only small dabs are really needed. With all Kandesn products, a little goes a VERY, VERY long way. Sunrider is the only food company that produces their own entire line of skin care and cosmetics %26quot;under the same roof%26quot; as the foods, with the same pharmaceutical standards.

What is the best foundation EVER? ( those with dry acne prone skin)?
my skin is dry and flaky...and prone to spots.
so i%26#039;m looking for a foundation that is not heavy(doesn%26#039;t make me break out) but covers fully without making my flaky skin look even more dry!
no problem with money just something that covers the damn spots as best as possible :]|||lancome, the one for dry skin, ive forgot the name of it, my mum n my mate swear by it! i dont use it as i have oily skin, so i use adaptive by lancome, but i swear by that! i luv lancome, i think its great!|||I have gotten the best coverage with kms mineral essentials as it evens out my uneven skin tone. It is not heavy at all. You hardly know you are even wearing it. I have dry skin too so I understand your frustration. As long as I use a moisturizer before putting on my makeup, I am good to go.
Good luck in whatever you choose. :)|||You may want to lay off of the makeup for a while and start a nightly moisturizer to make your skin healthy then look for hypoallergenic makeup that suits your taste|||I have found that Neutrogena Clear Skin foundation works well. It is a liquid foundation that goes on lightly and has acne medicine in it. I have really dry skin, but I have never noticed it making the dryness stand out.|||I have had the best experience with kms minerals. My skin is dry especiallly in the winter but you would never know it. My skin is sensitive and this brand has been the perfect choice for me.|||Try the MAC Studiofix line. It is not heavy, it%26#039;s a blend of powder and foundation, so it goes on light. It has great coverage and hides all imperfections. I love it because I don%26#039;t have to put on a heavy foundation then powder. It%26#039;s all together. It lasts throughout the day and you won%26#039;t break out.|||When it comes to skin care, I would give Clinique my life.
It sounds to me you need a moisturising, oil free foundation.
I myself use Clinique superbalanced foundation.
What%26#039;s more if you buy it at a Cllinique counter you can get colour matched so it fits your skin perfectly. You can almost gaurentee, too, that with it being Clinique you%26#039;ll get a couple free samples too!
Best of luck!|||I have dry/sensitive skin that is very prone to breaking out.
Before anything else, I highly recommend using a very good moisturizer that will penetrate deep into your skin. I prefer using emu oil, since it contains only emu oil...I don%26#039;t get any irritations, the emu oil totally absorbs deep into my skin, the dryness has almost gone away %26amp; best of all, it also helps heal the acne. I get my emu oil from either Lure Beauty or Lumiere Mineral Cosmetics. You should moisturize both morning and night. Emu oil lasts a very long time too...all you need is about 3 little drops %26amp; this you apply after washing your face %26amp; while it%26#039;s still wet.
Secondly, I recommend using a very soft microfiber cloth. Jane Iredale %26amp; Aquis make very good ones. The microfiber cloth will very gently exfoliate your skin, removing dead, flakey and dry skin, as well as dirt, oil and makeup. This is safe enough to use everyday. Stay away from microdermabraision...it%26#039;s too rough and not good for everyday. 1-2 times a month, you can use a %26quot;sugar scrub%26quot; by mixing C%26amp;H sugar %26amp; local raw honey...about 50:50 ratio (the mixture should be thick and slightly grainy) %26amp; use this to gently exfoliate your skin. Honey is a wonderful natural antioxidant %26amp; antibacterial. Once a week you can also use straight local raw honey as a mask. Leave it on for about 20 minutes and then rinse with warm water. It leaves skin very refreshed and radiant. =) For daily washing, use the most gentle cleanser possible. Two of my favorite cleansers are Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk and Camellia Rose Honey Green Tea Shea Soap.
Lastly, I recommend using Mineral Makeup. My favorite brand (out of roughly 30 I%26#039;ve tried) is Lumiere Mineral Cosmetics. They don%26#039;t use any bismuth oxychloride, which is known to be an irritant to many. You won%26#039;t find kaolin caly or other clays in their cosmetics either...this is a bad ingredient for dry skin types to wear longer than in just a mask. Lumiere doesn%26#039;t use high levels of titanium dioxide or zinc oxide either...these have also been found to be drying or cause irritations to some people, when in high amounts. Also, with breakouts, stay away from mineral oil and an ingredient called Octyl Palmitate..these are known to clog pores and irritate acne. I get very dry/irrtated with bismuth oxychloride, kaolin clay or any clays, high amounts of titanium dioxide, preservatives (EDTA, Diazolidinyl Urea %26amp; Urea (female horse urine), Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Methylparaben, Propylparaben), talc, and even zea mays...which are found in almost all traditional cosmetics and in several mineral cosmetic brands. Lumiere doesn%26#039;t use any of these ingredients. =)
The foundations I%26#039;d recommend for your skin type would be...
Flawless -for a matte, but not flat finish %26amp; looks like your skin but better...coverage is a very easy light-medium to buildable heavy. This is very light weight, but coverage is amazing...a lot better than BE. You%26#039;d use 1/3rd the amount of minerals that you would if you were using i.d. Bare Escentials. Flawless does what it%26#039;s named after...it gives a flawless look, helps soften the look of pores and blemishes. This is my everyday choice of foundations.
Luminesse - for a slightly glowy/radiant finish without the %26quot;tin man%26quot; look...coverage is a very easy light to buildable medium. This foundation does an awesome job at softening up the look of pores and fine lines too. This is my choice of foundation when my skin just looks dull. Both foundations, I%26#039;d recommend applying dry with a synthetic kabuki, long handled kabuki or flat top buffer from Lumiere...they are the best brushes for applying foundation.
The other foundation I%26#039;d recommend of Lumiere%26#039;s is Cashmere -applied %26quot;wet%26quot; with a Duo fiber optic brush (replicated after the MAC 187) by spritzing your brush and your palm of hand with a hydrating mist (Juice Beauty is awesome or use an even more natural hydrating mist -Garden of Wisdom is a great place too) and then add a very small amount of Cashmere (about a pinch) and blend with brush...texture should be very thin, then apply to face - this will create a very soft, airbrushed finish...coverage is like that you%26#039;d get from a heavy foundation, but it%26#039;s actually quite thin, very light and looks very natural. This is my choice for %26quot;bad skin days%26quot;...totally softens everything up!
For days when you need a concealer, Lumiere%26#039;s Healing Concealer is the best! It helps heal blemishes naturally as it covers them.
When you need a little extra help, or want things smoothed out even more, I highly recommend liquid primer by both Lumiere %26amp; Camellia Rose. They are the best %26amp; will fill in pores beautifully, without drying out your skin! *if you are sensitive to silicones, you will want to avoid these products.
I think you%26#039;d be very pleased with Lumiere. Everything they carry is top notch. The only items I don%26#039;t find to be the best of the best are the few natural hair cosmetic brushes they carry. Everything else is awesome.
For a finishing powder/veil, I%26#039;d recommend Veena Silk Veil. It%26#039;s awesome! I generally hate finishing powders and veils, but the VSV is superb, doesn%26#039;t feel heavy at all and most importantly it doesn%26#039;t dry my skin out. Their Perlfecting Powder is also quite nice...it softens the finished look...helping soften up pores and fine lines. All of the All Over Colors, Blush, Radiances and Bronzers are very nice. The eyeshadows are almost overwhelming...sooo many to choose from! Gorgeous!
Whatever products you choose, natural is the best way to go. Good luck! =D|||Haha, I actually meant to answer your question when I ended up answering someone%26#039;s bare minerals question instead...oh well. Here was my answer to their question.
Right now I use ERA%26#039;s spray on foundation. I don%26#039;t have dry skin as much anymore, but being that it%26#039;s winter...my face is dry, but this foundation is perfect for dry, acne prone skin.
I%26#039;ve been using it for a few months now. But it covers EVERYTHING (without the need of conealer)...feels nice on the face, and doesn%26#039;t make my skin look dry at all (just nice, and dewy). On top of all that let me show you one of the benefits they have listed on their website:
ERA庐 FACE not only looks good on the skin, but IS good for the skin. Its unique formulation provides vital moisture without clogging pores. Botanicals, Aloe Vera and Chamomile soothe and promote healing by allowing skin to breathe. Antioxidant Vitamins C %26amp; E nourish and fortify skin.
If you do order this, they recommend spraying it onto your face (like airbrushing) but I recommend spraying it onto a make up sponge (you still get airbrushed looking results) and %26quot;stipple%26quot; it onto your skin. You can make it as sheer or as opaque as you%26#039;d like.
It is $55.00, though. But I think it%26#039;s worth it. It lasts a lonnng time.
I don%26#039;t recommend using MAC%26#039;s foundation, though. It%26#039;s made ALOT of people break out, and it isn%26#039;t good for your skin.|||physicians formula mineral wear. its made for acne prone skin but i would use the liquid since you have dry skin.|||hands down smashbox primer and foundation work like magic

What kind of make-up will cover my acne prone skin?
what kind of make-up can i use to cover acne scars and the redness?.. i have moderate acne. i use bare minerals right now but it makes my ance look purple.|||Use Pro Active, make up can%26#039;t cover or hide acne! It makes it worse!|||Whatever you do, don%26#039;t pile on the concealers, the foundations and the powders. That is only going to clog your pores more, giving you more acne, more redness etc.
I%26#039;ve been using Lancome Effacernes concealer. It%26#039;s a waterproof concealer made for under your eyes but it%26#039;s amazing at hiding any redness from previous acne and making your skin look very even. You might also want to try getting a green concealer too as that cancels out redness. When you use concealer DAB it on the spot you are covering and even invest in a tiny concealer brush too and you%26#039;ll see the difference it makes. I would not recommend using foundation because that way it%26#039;s like you are putting a mask of makeup all over your face and your skin won%26#039;t breathe.
I also use Avon%26#039;s ideal shade powder too. I dust a bit over my face when I%26#039;m done with my concealer. It hasn%26#039;t broken me out yet, but I don%26#039;t use it every day either. |||The best make up that I have come across for very good skin coverage is called DermaBlend.

I got a scar cover, concealer, foundation, and powder, and between those there isn%26#039;t much I can%26#039;t cover up when I need to. I think it would be the same scenario for acne.

What skin care products work for acne prone skin?
if have a few pimples here and there, but im 11 years old so what r good products to keep my face vibrant, acne free, and fesh looking.|||if you are 11 years old, you should not be using too many skin care products already as your skin is still very fresh and young. Drink lots of fruit juices and lots of water ( best natural cleanser for your body!), especially if it%26#039;s hot outside. cleanse your face and neck in the morning and at night with a light facial wash which is soap free, try brands like Cetaphil Gentle Daily Cleanser or Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser if you wear makeup. If you sweat a lot during the daytime, it is probably a good idea to cleanse during the day too. After you cleanse your face, you can apply a little, light facial moisturiser, if you need any , or only to the areas of your face that are dry.
In general, try to eat healthy, get enough rest and exercise and try to maintain a positive attitude.

Vitamin E cream, okay to use on acne prone skin?
I just bought Equate Vitamin E cream for my face, it%26#039;s been really dry lately and I%26#039;ve heard that vitamin E cream is really good for dry skin.

What鈥檚 the best make-up for oily/sensitive/acne-prone skin?
FIrst avoid heavy make ups, use moisturising day cream with SPF and some color, it will nourish your skin and cover the acne. Other than that use colors in natural palettes, such as brown and pink, light mauve. These will give light to your face without making it look heavy. Use some mascara and a pink based blush. Also use lip gloss instead of color lip stick, since the shine of the lip gloss will light again your face and take attention away from any acne signs.
Don%26#039;t forget to remove make up daily, use cleaner and scrub once every week to remove dead cells!! ^^|||MAC is the best makeup product.
Clinique is good, but get the base not the powder.
Nutragena, It helps clear your skin also.
I use MAC when I%26#039;m going out somewhere nice, or just with alot of people around, but half the time i wear that more then anything. Clinique is amazing, first put the base on then put the nutragena powder then there you go. :]|||Mineral makeup like GLO MINERALS its amazing and good for acne skin......it has SPF in it too.....i like it better than bare minerals cuz its less messy......and easy to apply!!!

What's a good homemade face (for oily acne-prone skin), hand and foot scrub?
I think some combination of sugar, honey, lemon juice, banana, and/or olive oil? Haha I%26#039;ve done it before. Just google the recipe.
Please help me :)
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?鈥?/a>|||An egg white for oily skin-separate the egg and apply the white to your face and let it dry. For a scrub, mix sea salt (you can buy coarse sea salt at the grocery store in the baking aisle) and mix it with lotion or use it plain in the shower on your dry skin. Coffee grounds work well also. Sugar doesn%26#039;t always work-the sugar granules dissolve in water.|||I make a salt scrub for mature skin, but I have advised customers on just what you are asking.
I think you can make a good homemade face, hand, and foot scrub with grapeseed or sunflower oil (10% jojoba extends the shelf life) along with the sea salt already mentioned. Grapeseed is a light, non-greasy oil that lubricates and does not penetrate so easily.
Just fill your container with sea salt. Use grapeseed with a little jojoba or sunflower (full of vitamin e that also helps preserve) and mix it in with your salt. A nice essential oil or sweet orange or tangerine or lemongrass would also benefit oily skin. And, use this (your own product) once to twice a week.
You will love the way your skin feels when you are done.

What's a good homemade face (for oily acne-prone skin), hand and foot scrub?
for ur face:
add salt in a luke warm water.
it works for me and i have clear skin without using cream:)|||for face :
Vinegar, Lemon Juice and Aloe. Each of these may be used with positive results on acne. The vinegar and lemon juice work to clean your pours. The aloe works to heal skin damage. Studies have shown that treating the sores with aloe will reduce scars and speed healing.
for your hand and foot scrub :
here is a homemade good exfoliator
# You can use any size plastic container or glass jar that you want鈥?for the sake of this tutorial, let鈥檚 just say you used a small Tupperware container.
# Fill half of the container with brown sugar (make sure it鈥檚 grinded well, no chunks).
# Add 1 teaspoon of sea salt (I like sea salt because it鈥檚 chunkier and works great to get rid of dead skin).
# Add 1 tablespoon of honey to the container.
# Pour in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
# Add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the mixture and mix well.
# If it has too much of a creamy consistency, then pour in some more brown sugar and mix until you reach the desired texture.
# The end result: The mixture shouldn鈥檛 be too rough but it should still have a grainy texture鈥?(I hope that made sense!) =O)
# Dampen your foot or hands with warm water, lather your face with the brown sugar exfoliator (in gentle, upward-circular motions), rinse skin clean, and pat your skin dry (remember... never rub, always pat). ||| depends on what you want.
olive oil (or other rich oils) and sea salt make a good scrub - for the whole body.
apricot or almond kernel flour with water make also good scrubs, but mainly for the face.
as you have oily skin, you should do your scrub before you go to bed - after scrubbing, the skin produces more sebum for some hours - so, scrubbing in the morning leads to a shiny face that day.

# Pour in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
# Add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the mixture and mix well.
# If it has too much of a creamy consistency, then pour in some more brown sugar and mix until you reach the desired texture.
# The end result: The mixture shouldn鈥檛 be too rough but it should still have a grainy texture鈥?(I hope that made sense!) =O)
# Dampen your foot or hands with warm water, lather your face with the brown sugar exfoliator (in gentle, upward-circular motions), rinse skin clean, and pat your skin dry (remember... never rub, always pat). ||| depends on what you want.
olive oil (or other rich oils) and sea salt make a good scrub - for the whole body.
apricot or almond kernel flour with water make also good scrubs, but mainly for the face.
as you have oily skin, you should do your scrub before you go to bed - after scrubbing, the skin produces more sebum for some hours - so, scrubbing in the morning leads to a shiny face that day.
Moisturizer for extremely dry skin, and acne prone skin?
My face gets VERY dry in the winter and cold months, which have already started. And I have a bad acne problem so i can%26#039;t use any oily moisturizers. I have tried Olay Complete, Aveeno, Proactiv moisturizer, and a few Avon ones, and none of those work. They make my skin feel moisturized for about an hour and then it looks all dry and flaky again.

What's the best foundation to use on acne prone skin?
A non-oily one. I%26#039;m not sure of a product at the moment but there%26#039;s lot out there. These are better as the oil doesn%26#039;t block up your pores like the sebum excreted from your skin does naturally.The last thing you want to do is add more oil.
I use foundation most days and have terrible spots on my chin. And I%26#039;ve used all manner of things to get rid of them (prescribed and non-prescribed)-but they don%26#039;t bugde and so I have to make the best of what I have.
(I use %26#039;L%26#039;oreal True Match Foundation%26#039; Just looking at their website, its says it has %26#039;non-greasy oils.%26#039; I found it to be one of the best for blemished skin because it adjusts to the different colours of it-hence %26#039;True Match%26#039; , and it really does work.)
From personal experience, foundation doesn%26#039;t seem to affect my skin to much. I use a barrier gel (from Superdrug%26#039;s own line) first, let it dry and then apply foundation. I then apply a darker powder to give a matt finish. And then a lighter one so that I don%26#039;t look to orange from the darker one. I have to do this as I%26#039;m pale-skinned and I would look ridiculous otherwise.
Also, I found that washing my face less often helped. I used to use a gentle exfoliant twice a day and then realised that this was making the problem worse becasue I just kept opening up my pores and irritating them, and so the spots just looked even redder than before. So fianally, I let my self believe what all the webistes and people on TV said-It%26#039;s not dirt that causes spots, it%26#039;s oil and sebum. By washing my face, I was drying it out to much as so my skin made more oil to compensate. Viscious circle!
If I go out for night I don%26#039;t even bother taking my make-up off when I come in-probably the biggest taboo in the make-up world! But to be honest it makes little difference to my skin because I haven%26#039;t washed my skin in a rush to go to bed and so it%26#039;s not inflamed. And the barrier gel is still there between my skin and my make-up. Still, I wouldn%26#039;t reccomend it for anyone else.|||Aloette Ultra Finish

What's a good homemade face (for oily acne-prone skin), hand and foot scrub?
No joke, but I%26#039;ve honestly heard %26#039;urine%26#039; was a good anti-acne face wash. Never had the stomach to try it though.
Can face peeling is helpful in an acne prone skin?
i have acne on my face.I hv used many medicines but theses are of no help and constant breaking out of acne have left red n dark scars on my fair complexion skin which looks really ugly.My face has become permanent red now which itchies a lot.Somebody told me dat face peeling is helpful in removing scars.Can i go for it as still m having acne.Will peeling improve my condition or will it make my situation more complicated..HELP!|||I would ask a dermatologist.
Have any of the medicines you used been prescribed by a dermatologist. If not, see what they can do for you.
My son got an anti-biotic skin wash and a retin-a lotion and they work great for him.
Your skin is unique and those may not be what%26#039;s best for you. But go see a dermatologist and find out. There are also pills that some people can take, if it is determined that they need them.|||for acne, try proactive www.proactiv.com, and for the scars, try Olay microdermabrasion %26amp;peel kit $25.00, at walmart, , with fair skin you can also use eucerin,it is $11.00 for a large bottle,it is also at walmart. eucerin will stop the itching,and also is good for your complexion. hope this helps. you can also get acutane from the doctor,but you will still need these other things, and it has some bad side effects.

What is the best foundation to use for fair skinned people with acne prone skin?
Hands down, bare minerals. Ever see those infomercials? they can be addicting. I actually asked my dermetologist what is best because I want to wear make up but rarely do becuase it just makes me break out! She suggested bare minerals, and I got it for my birthday. Yes, it is expensive (25-30 for a thing of foundation) BUT well worth it. It actually HELPS my acne. I have struggled with acne since I was 10, and I am now 21. I even suggested it to my mom and she loves it. No matter what skin tone, they have something for you. Plus, they all have SPF in it, another great thing for ski. I would become their spokesperson in a second. I got so many compliments on my skin, and honestly had more guys asking me out. It boosted my self-esteem and confidence.|||Laura Mercier makes a great oil free foundation and they have nice colours for fair complexions. I use Blush Ivory. I have VERY fair skin %26amp; it doesn%26#039;t make me look pink or yellow like alot of other brands. Go to the Laura Mercier counter near you or check out there website.

Here%26#039;s how to go about it while shopping in a department store. Remember, you always want to test before you buy. This is why it%26#039;s best to get your foundations from department stores rather than from the makeup aisle at your local pharmacy or grocery store.
Difficulty: Average
Time Required: 10 minutes
Here%26#039;s How:
1. Consider your skin type. Before you pick the right shade, you need to find out the right formulation for your skin. Are you oily? Dry? Combination?
2. Pick the right formula. If you%26#039;re oily, look for words like %26#039;oil-free%26#039; or %26#039;oil-control%26#039; on the bottle. Got dry skin? Go for moisturizing foundations with %26#039;hydrating%26#039; or %26#039;moisture-rich%26#039; wording on the bottle. For combo skin, determine if you%26#039;re more oily or dry and go from there. Cream-to-powder bases work great for combo skin.
3. Show up to the makeup counter with a clean, fresh face. It%26#039;s OK to wear eye makeup or lipstick, even moisturizer on your face, but you don%26#039;t want to show up already wearing foundation.
4. Select a few colors that seem close to your natural skin tone. Go for the yellow-based foundations, which look most natural on all skin tones. However, if you%26#039;re very fair, try a pink, cooler shade.

Is "Olay Total Effects with Anti-blemish" OK to use if I'm 21, combination acne-prone skin?
Or will it cause breakouts?

That said, my best recommendation is Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. It is very basic, always recommended by dermatologists and it works. Follow up with a good, alcohol-free toner and some oil-free moisturizer. (Yes, even acne-prone skin needs a moisturizer.)
And eat tons of salmon, berries, melon and salad greens along with drinking water constantly! This alone will give you a beautiful glow in your skin.

Why is iodine and milk bad for acne prone skin?
?|||It%26#039;s the iodine that is used to clean the cow%26#039;s udders and the milking machinery-- traces of it get into the milk. Therefore, drinking lots of milk ups a persons iodine intake and causes them to break out. Some people are more sensitive to it than others, almost like an allergy.
I used to drink glasses upon glasses of milk every day and had horrible skin. It wasn%26#039;t until my mom read an article in Prevention magazine that featured this odd story that I had ever heard of such a thing. Stopped drinking milk, my skin cleared up within a week. Now I limit myself to only one glass a week as a treat and my skin has been clean and clear as a result ever since.|||Aloe Vera, this common home plant, is an indispensable acne and oily skin remedy. You can cut its meaty leaf and apply the thick gel-juice directly on the acne or freeze it with water to make refreshing ice cubes.

Sleep on a clean pillow case every few days, you can put tea tree oil on it at night, use the mint julep mask t wice a week. That really helps. Also make sure you exfoliate twice a week to get rid of dead skin cells. Make sure your clenser has acne medicine and most importantly drink plenty of water. That will help the most. I used to have problem skin, but now it is smooth and clear. I also put baking soda mixed with water on my face nad take a shower. it helps to exfoliate. That is what makes it baby soft. Good luck. What works for one person might not work for others. Using witch hazel as an astrigent also helps some people. I know the baking soda will get your skin noticably smooth right after you do it.|||Proactiv Renewing cleanser.|||murad! they have it in a pill and cleanser it really works try all the murad products seriously|||proactiv or benzac. neutrogena also have good facial wash for acne prone skin|||pure 70% rubbing alcohol. iv used it forever! acne comes from excess oil in the skin. rubbing alcohol dries up the oil and the acne vanishes!|||Khiels has a good blue herbal range for oily/blemish prone skin. You can buy these products from their Website. Im not sure of the web address but you can search %26#039;khiels%26#039; on Yahoo or google %26amp; get the same results. They are%26#039;nt too badly priced either.|||I love Biore%26#039;s blemish fighting ice cleanser and blemish fighting cleansing cloths they cost anywhere from $5-7 but it%26#039;s worth it or you can also get St.Ives Medicated Apricot Scrub I use that everyday it%26#039;s great and it%26#039;s under $3 and for quick spot treatments Clean%26amp;Clear Advantage Spot Treatment works fast and won%26#039;t over dry.
