what is the best acne treatments for severe breakouts on the forehead?

lately ive been breaking out on my forehead. ive been using so many acne treatments from sacylic acid to benozoyol peroxide and NOTHING is working. the rest of my face has 1, maybe 2 pimples, but on my forehead theres a breakout of too many to count! im really getting stressed out because the pimples are so huge i cant even cover them with makeup! what is an effective treatment for my acne that i can buy at any local drugstore?

The tricky part about acne is that the problem can actually become worse if you overmedicate. That’s because acne medication can overdry the skin, causing a boost in your skin’s Sebum (oil) production. This results in…you guessed it – more acne.

So what’s the long term solution? Find gentler solutions or even natural acne cures that won’t shock your body into more breakouts. Here’s what I recommend:

- Use a glycerin based facewash. Glycerin is gentler and will balance the ph levels in your skin.
- For body acne, try using an antibacterial soap to slowly dry out the skin. If your skin gets too dry, switch to a moisterizing soap like Dove to counterbalance the effect.
- Wash your face only 2 times a day max and gently pat dry with a towel.
- Use a gentle face moisterizer if the glycerin based face wash drys you out too much.
- Eat almonds, fiber, drink lots of water and avoid excess sugar intake.
- If acne medication isn’t working or causing new breakouts, try applying egg whites to the pimples at night before bed. This natural remedy works great.
- One of my favorite natural skin conditioners is wearing an "oatmeal mask". The oatmeal with smooth your skin while simultaneously absorb toxins and oils from your pores.

Best of Luck!

You have to realize that acne does not go away overnight, though I wish it would. You have to consistently use the anti-acne stuff over a period of a few weeks to see the results. My recommendation includes the following:

1) Clean your bed linens on a regular basis
2) Reduce your stress levels through exercise, yoga, meditation or whatever
3) Choose 1 or 2 OTC acne medications and use them over the course of a few weeks before changing
4) Stay well hydrated
5) Visit your doctor if they don’t let up. It may possibly be an issue with hormones, or you will need a prescription medication to help. Usually a birth control pill coupled with a prescription acne medication will clear things up quickly.

Oo see I tried proactive because my face was really bad, and proactive didn’t work for me at all. In some case it tries out yor skin reallly bad but then I tried Murad face line from ULTA and it has worked wonders. It’s only 35 dollars for the whole kit and my face looked better after the first week.

Try the face wash in the link below. My dermantoligst recomended it and it has worked for me. Also try using nutrigena loation. Anything else clogs up pores my derm told me. If none of that works you should probably go to the dermantolist and they can prescribe you something.
