Confusing problem with acne.. any advice?

first i'll say sorry for the length of this





i have been using Cetaphil Sensitive Skin Cleanser for a few months with great results, and in the mornings i put on Cetaphil Sensitive Skin Moisturizing Lotion. unfortunately one day i ran out of my Cetaphil, causing me to breakout, and the only other facewash i had was Biore Warming Cleanser. i used that for about three weeks with no improvement, and i didn't have time to buy any more Cetaphil. finally about a week ago i bought some more Cetaphil, but it has seemed to stop working and there is no improvement in my acne, my breakouts are only getting more severe.





now the weird thing for me is that for the past two weeks it's been Spring Break where i live, so i have had no school for two weeks. therefore, i have not worn any foundation, concealer, blush, anything for two weeks straight, but my skin seemed to be better when i was wearing make up than it does now, without the make up!





i exercise regularly, i have been going to the gym for about a year so i know i'm not lacking exercise. i am not overweight, but i follow a good diet plan given to me by my doctor about 6 months ago (fruits, veggies, fish, meats, whole wheats, etc.) so i am in good health.





why is my skin breaking out out so much, if i wash my face twice a day, eat healthy, exercise, and wear no make up? the only thing i have been doing different is i have stopped moisturizing my face (i stopped about three weeks ago), because i was told if i use moisturizing lotions on your face it will only worsen my acne. i'm scared to moisturize again, since my face is breaking out so badly that i don't want anything to make it worse. will moisturizing it help, or make it worse?





does anyone have any advice on what i can do to get rid of my acne and go back to how my skin used to be? also, i have seen a clinic and they were the ones who told me to use Cetaphil, so saying ';go see your doctor'; would be no help to me at all. please don't answer by telling me to talk to my doctor, and if that's all you can think of then please don't bother answering at all (i'm not trying to sound rude!). thank you for reading this, sorry if it wasted your time but thanks for the advice from those who give it !Confusing problem with acne.. any advice?
Avoid using all cosmetics.Wash frequently with plane cold water.You can use cetaphil once or twice a day.Use adapalene at night.Confusing problem with acne.. any advice?
MOst acne treatments say that your acne will get worse before it gets better. Usually it takes 1-2 weeks ofr it to kick in and your skin to adjust. Things may flare up but I would wait while before you panic. If it is still bad after a month, try ProActiv, I know many people who love it. My boyfriend uses the Clearasil Ultra scrub, lotion, ceansing pads, and quickstart treatment and it works great too!

Look into DHC Skincare. It's available online %26amp; mail order.


I once received samples and although using olive oil seems contradictory, I never have healthier skin than when I use their olive oil moisturizer. Great mild cleansing 'soaps' and other facial skincare.





I also very much like Dr. Weil for Origins Plantidote mushroom skincare line which is a face serum and a liquid supplement you take by mouth that is vitamin c and good things for your skin. Again, great results when using both together. And Bare Escentuals Mineral foundation make-up is the best ever for coverage without clogging pores.
