I have used clean and clear and neutrogena face wash and it ends up breaking out my skin because my skin is sensitive. Is there any acne products or natural remedies that clear acne that can be used for sensitive skin?

Worked for my EXTRA sensitive skin
Well i’ve been using proactiv for months now and it’s taken a great affect. However, i’m not sure how it would work for your sensitive skin. You should go to a dermatologist and ask what him/her recommends to get for the sensitivity.
try skinID.com cuz it’ll help you figure out what you need specifically
I don’t like using home remidies because they never worked. I use clearasil. I have fair and REALLY senstive skin.
It doesn’t make it dry or turn red, I swear by Clearasil
Find something holistic if you can… Synthetic chemicals such as sulfates are some of the worst for sensitive skin, look for organic products, even better if they have an expiry date. Check in your local health food store or natural pharmacy. Products with small amounts of tea tree oil, or grapefruit seed extract are great for acne prone skin.
There are also some natural methods for acne removal, such as soaking a cotton ball in vinegar and sea salt and then putting the solution on your face for a few minutes before washing it off. This has a drying effect, but it may or may not be irritating to your skin.
As in the case of the drug store treatment, make sure you test it before you put it on your face.
Hi there…let me answer your question with detail answer..is that ok with you?
Acne is not a simple condition to treat. It is a skin disease that affects each individual that has it differently. Every case of serious acne has to be looked at as an individual case in order to be properly treated.
There is no catch-all treatment that can be used for every case. Furthermore, a lot of trial and error is usually needed in order to find an effective treatment individual by individual.There are many acne products that are mass-marketed as the best cure for acne. It is very important to realize that products that are marketed towards acne sufferers and that can be bought off the shelf in the supermarket, do not cure acne.
They manage, mask or suppress the symptoms of acne. It is important to recognize this as well as to realize that acne is not a result of bad hygiene. If your acne is progressively getting worse do not think that it is enough to wash your skin often and to use an over the counter product. If your acne is getting worse, seek medical advice for stronger products that might only be available with a prescription.
Acne treatments vary from being off the shelf, over-the-counter creams, prescribed and surgical. Over the counter acne products are usually topical medicines that contain Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid.
These are usually used to treat mild cases of acne where an individual is attempting to halt the progression of acne and clear up some troublesome pimples. They can also be used during severe stages of acne in combination with another treatment. Doctors usually recommend that the acne-infected area be washed very gently with warm water and a mild soap and then the topical treatment applied.
When acne progresses to the moderate or severe stage, doctors and dermatologists will usually use a combination of treatments in order for maximum effectiveness in halting any further development of the skin disease. Light therapy and extraction are often used at the moderate stage, in combination with an oral antibiotic or a retinoid cream, depending on the observations and recommendations of your doctor.Since acne is such a complex condition to properly treat, it is not advisable to attempt to self-medicate. If you try over the counter products and they do not work.
Do not give up thinking that you have an incurable case of acne. Seek further professional medical advice. A doctor or a dermatologist will try to stop your acne from getting out of hand and will make an aggressive attempt at using a combination of products to prevent the possibility of acne scarring.If you are serious about putting a halt to your acne, learn about the latest acne fighting products and how they can possibly work for your type of acne from your doctor.
Do not make off the shelf products the extent of your fight against acne. Be as aggressive about fighting acne as acne is about progressing step by step into a serious skin condition.
