Re: Best products to use for preventing acne scars?

I've had probs since puberty too. Especially when on gear. I know everyone's different but through trial and error I found trying to dry skin out ( acne creams, sunbeds etc.) only works for a short period. Your skin then starts registering that it is overly dry and produces even more of it's own oil than before, so back to square one.

The best approach is to keep the pores from clogging too much by using an exfoliator a couple of times a week( a loofah or a mit thingy from Boots) and to use a moisturising shower gel and /or oil free moisturiser on the face. Some folks swear by drinking water with a squeeze of fresh lemon in too.

Anyway, must dash, think thats the Avon lady heading up the path.
