   It sounds like your doing everything right but don’t forget that acne is not always caused by not washing your face enough; it can be hormonal, or hereditary. The only thing I do is wash my face with Pond’s Wet Cleansing Towelettes (just to take make-up off).

   Then I use Clean & Clear Acne Continuous Controlling Acne Cleanser (purple and white bottle, with a purple cap). I use this everyday and it works great, if you have pimples now then try leaving it on your face for a little longer than recommended; I usually rub this into my face for about 2 minutes and then it sit on my face for at least another 2 minutes.

   Finally, I exfoliate my face at least once a week using the St. Ives Apricot Scrub stuff.

   I’m not sure if this will work for you but it works for me. Good Luck.

   Well you answered mine, so it’s only fair to answer yours too:)Neutrogena transparent facial bars has never failed me. Basically just cause you only need the cleanser to cling to oil, makeup and dirt so that water can wash it away. You just need something that works effectively without residue. My dad’s a doctor and he always recommended this to his patients.
   You’re pretty much doing everything right though!
   If your skin doesn’t clear after a while though, ask your doctor about Accutane. It has some serious side effects though and should be taken as a last resort, but it definitely does what it says it does and my acne has definitely subsided.
   Good luck!

   It sounds like you’re using way too much product. And all those products are expensive too. If you use too much product, your skin is going to go dry and then you’ll have even more acne than what you started with. I think that all of your physical activity is great, and the water is great as well. But I suggest only using a cleanser when you feel your skin is oily or sweaty. God luck and keep up the good routine!

   everything that you are doing should be fine! As the first person said, acne can be hormonal and/or hereditary so washing your face will help but it wont completely iliminate the chances of you having acne or getting a few pimples now and then. I hope i helped!

   it sounds great!
   and the natural organic stuff wont irritate your skin
   and a good bar of soap that my dermatologist told me to use was called a basis bar http://www.acne.org/images/products/basis-bar-large.jpg
   and it works great and doesnt dry out your skin

   you didn’t say whether you have oily or dry skin. That needs to be factored in.

   Sounds like you are being pro-active, and doing the best you can, though! Good luck!

   okay something to ALWAYS remember try to put make up/ foundation on as little as possible! try tree oil on your skin. not to much or it will dry out your skin. if someone is willing to take you, go to the dermatologist and ask thats definetly the best thing to do!!!

   hope i helped:)
