Anyone here has acne? I think so, how bad is it? We can all discuss ways to prevent it from happening.

IMFletcher does. <__<
I don't, thank god. :P
-
The way I see it, acne is perhaps God's worst creation.
-
I have it a little, but not too bad. Just wash your face with bar soap and cold water twice a day.

I have a bit of acne, but it helps to use a facial scrub(in the shower), for me at least. Unfortunately, I'm out of that right now, but I think I can finally get more today ..it's been showing a bit since I ran out.
For me, though, the problems get much worse if I as much as touch my face(well, unless it's a big, bulging, ugly thing >_<). Don't touch! Touching is bad(unless it's a DS, lol >__>).

No, I do not think you should do that. Soap will just dry your face and perhaps it will make it achy as well.

cough...** IMFLETCHER **...cough
Just kidding Kyle. I have acne too. Almost everyone (teens) does.

Regular soaps and shampoos usually just dry out the surface of the skin, and you may still have underlying acne issues. The specialized soaps usually dry out your skin, as well - but at least they also get down there and clean your face deeply, somewhat. Then again, not everything will do much for everyone.

I've read that acne is really caused by family history, acne is not really caused by chocolate and acne is caused by stress, but what the hell is stress, really?
-
I have a little acne. Its not really that bad...or at least, its nowhere NEAR as bad as aab's acne. XD
-
I got more, when I was 12... now I barely notice it.

Don't worry, you'll still be cute XD
-
Nope never had it.
-
just do the hot flannel-cold flannel trick....although i guess if you're really bad you might have to do that for 2 hours a day haha
-
I get acne once in a while, but it's only one or two little dots. 0_o
Except for the bottom left of my neck... there's like a blotch of tiny red dots (can barely see it). I don't know what they are.
-
Not really, but it happens.
-
I'm on a medication.
It somehow shrinks my pores.
They're little brown-ish pills.
Helps SO much, and after I'm done with the stuff I'm supposed to never get acne again.
Only problem is the really, really dry skin. But, that's easily fixed in the morn'.
-
I've it a bit! but you can barely see it.
EDIT: Yay 4000 posts that means I'm ZFGC's Legendary poster! :P

Mammo will always be the legendary poster, just because he's Mammo. Even if you get to let's say 99999999 posts. Won't matter.
Considering, every post he made had a bit of content in it, and he never posted in every new topic available.
And yeah... to get back on topic...
Uhmm.. i have some on my back too, but it went away with the sun.
:D?
-
Touching is bad(unless it's a DS, lol >__>).
Or your kids.
-
i have a bit of acne. it goes away if i dont eat junk food. i use a special cream and little face wipe things and it works REALLY well
-
i have light acne. i just use lava soap and it goes away
-
From "Pro Activ":
In mornings:
Eat high fiber cereal with low fat milk and not the regular one, which is perhaps the red one. Exercise wearing loose fitting clothes.
Acne is not caused by greasy food and by dirt. Do not pick on the skin, such as white and black heads, hey I know is probably a habit, but get use to it.
-
Wow glad everyone reminded me >_> except it's almost gone now.
Mine was genetic, as in none of those crazy theories were the cause. My dad had it, my grandpa had it, so of course I'd get it. Anyhow for my case the only thing worth a damn has been Accutane. Side-effects are bitches, but I'm a man (despite what some assholes might say) and can take it.
-
I have mild acne on my face that comes and goes, but my back and shoulders are horrible. I've got noticeable scarring there as well. I've never tried Accutane, I don't want to deal with the side effects. And of course nothing else works.

Stop hitting on me, Kleaver. And stop offering me roofies! *flees*

Have and hate. Used to have short blonde hair and be really skinny and acne free. Then I got a computer. Now I have long brown hair, am overweight and have acne like there's no tomorrow.

I have had a bit of acne, but after I started using Clearasil Ultra © It's gotten a lot less. I'd reccomend it.
-
I never had acne and I probably never will because I've a dry skin and one of my friends told me people with dry skins don't get acne.
-
Well dry skin isn't really that good because I'll bet your skin is just probably achy.
-

Yes, that is one of the main reasons. The pads I use contain a lot of alchohol which dries out your skin.
It's not that big of a problem really. It's not like my skin starts to peel off or something.

Yeah, my skin isn't doing that either. I believe I have a dry skin because I like to take a hot (and I mean really hot) shower, and that's not good for your skin it makes it itchy XD
-
I luckily don't have any acne, but the best way to cure acne (and prevent it) is not to use soap, but rather use specialized lotions and pads that are designed to treat acne (preferably non-alcoholic), don't touch or pop pimples, and keep your face as clean as possible.
-
The key to no acne is... Don't be on the fuckin computer all day. Showering helps too.

And eating healthily :/, most of my friends who have acne don't eat well at all. I've been brought up with good meals every day and so have a pretty healthy diet considering my age, so that helps I suppose.

You guys know that Rubbing Alcohol is perhaps not good at all, wouldn't it irritate the skin?

It kills the microbes that cause it in the first place. Combined with a mild soap - to help remove the excess oil and dirt - should work fine.
A little bit of skin irritation is slightly better than an ass-load of acne. *cough kyle cough*
-
No skin irritation at all, only when I just apply it, but that only lasts for a few minutes.

Well that's true. I'll admit, I have acne myself and is a pain in the ass.
Edit: By the way, what's the best soap brand to use?
