Acne control include unclogging the pores of the skin, demolishing bacteria and reducing exuberant oil, or, in other words, “Prevention”.

As the saying goes “an ounce of preventative action is worth a pound of cure”

With this in mind, what then are the best ways to prevent and control acne?

First of all do not forget the fundamentals of healthful living- nourish your body with good food, consume 6-8 glasses of water per day and undertake to get sufficient shut eye (8-9 hours is highly recommended).

A method of controlling acne that is not widely known is to take fish oil supplements on a regular basis.

Fish oils comprise EPA and DHA fatty acids as well as omega-3 and omega-6 oils.

These necessary elements manufacture prostaglandins in the humane body.

Prostaglandins are chemical hormones and they serve to maintain optimal functioning in all of the body’s organs and cells.

They keep androgen hormones, which cause the production of exuberant oil, in check.

Using mild soap-free cleansers such as Cetaphil, Dove, Purpose or Neutrogena helps keep the skin clear of dirt and surface impurities.

Exfoliating creams and masques are likewise good for acne control as they work to gently peel away dead skin cells. But make sure you don’t choose one that is overly abrasive.

Using an astringent or toner to rid your face of exuberant oil is an effective way to control acne as is using topical solutions containing benzoyl peroxide or sulfur.

Some acne sufferers find productions with benzoyl peroxide to be harsh or excessively drying to their skin.

Stress is a contributing element in acne growth so undertake to keep it to a minimum.

Too much stress becomes a vicious circle in that pressure triggers the production of more oil which in the long run causes more skin difficulties and the acne that results have a tendancy to stress out the sufferer even more.

Works on my 17 year old daughter
By Grandma Pearle
My 17 year old daughter has used this for a couple of weeks now and the breakouts on her face have cleared up. She is also using the “Neutrogena Acne Stress Control, Power Foam Wash.” She had tried many different products including some very expensive acne kits sold on TV and they did not work.

Really works!
By J. Hudson
This product does everything it claims. It clears up acne gently and moisturizes your skin at the same time. It also moisturizes enough so you don’t have to use another moisturizer afterwards.

Gentle, but effective
By A
My skin isn’t completely covered in pimples, but I am always breaking out, including those deep, painful ones. I got super diligent about my skincare a few months ago because I was tired of being in my mid-twenties with the skin of a teenager. I tried Proactiv, but I was left with skin that was red, flaky, irritated, and STILL breaking out. Not exactly a great combination.

When I first tried this product, I have to admit that I was skeptical because everything else on the market seems to operate under the assumption that it has to be harsh to work. Thankfully Neutrogena made an effective acne product that doesn’t leave me red and flaky, even after a few months of use.

Morning: Neutrogena Acne Stress Power Foam Wash and this product. (Also, I use Neutrogena skin soothers stick concealer and L’oreal Bare Minerales foundation for my make-up.)
Night: Clean and Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub every other day (the Neutrogena scrub that’s supposed to go with this system made me break out), Neutrogena Acne Stress Power Foam Wash, this product, and then Neutrogena On-The-Spot treatment all over my entire face.

Everyone is different, so this might not work for you, but I hope you find something that does. Good luck!
