It's important to first understand acne so that you can properly treat it. It effects people of all ages (almost always in teens) and is not caused by poor hygiene, diet, or stress, but rather is the result of overactive hormones.





Arbonne has a great Clear Advantage line specifically designed to treat acne. The four step system includes a dietary supplement to support skin from the inside out that works to target troubled skin with vitamins, minerals and L-Lysine, an amino acid, wash, toner, and lotion. The wash is a deep-cleaning wash that unclogs pores, while keeping outbreaks under control with acne-fighting salicylic acid that prevents new blemishes, without drying your skin. The toner is blended with Alpha Hydroxy Acids to help balance and calm skin, removing excess oils leaving the skin clean, soothed, and refreshed. The oil-free lotion penetrates pores to combat blemish-causing bacteria, while soothing and clarifying skin.





All of Arbonne's products are pure, safe, and beneficial and formulated with natural botanicals. Arbonne's products do not contain alcohol, wax, dyes, chemicals, fragrances, acetone, or mineral oil that are known to cause irritation and dryness, so you can be sure that you're using a natural products with key ingredients for maximum benefit. If you're interested in learning more, I'll be happy to help you.
Reply:It's still teen acne. Yes, it's normal. I'm 17 going on 18 in July and I still have acne. You'll probably have it until you're about 19. I use a blackhead scrub and Avon Anew Clinical Micro-Exfoliant. Works great for me!

Reply:its teen acne. Go to the derm. if it gets bad cause u dont want potmarks.
Reply:Normal TEEN acne. During puberty, your hormones go crazy and overproduce like mad. One of the results is an excess in a natural skin oil called sebum. Sebum normally helps moisturize and keep the skin from drying out. Unfortunately, if too much is produced, it clogs up your skin's glands that produce this sebum (commonly called oil glands) and lo and behold, you get a pimple!
Reply:Acne is normal, and an indication that your body is experiencing hormonal changes.





Emprizone gel is what my own teenagers use, to get rid of their acne. All natural, and good to have on hand, for any topical use.





See links below to read about glyconutrients, as Emprizone is a glyconutrient gel.

Cheryl writes, "My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up."
