   take about four aspirin and dissolve them in a few drops of water.. add in a squirt of honey and make it into a paste.. you can also add in a few vitamin e capsules if ya like.. this can be used as a scrub, mask if left on for ten minutes, and a spot treatment left on over night.. it works like pro active.. i’ve used both and got the same result with each which is clear skin.. pro active dried my skin out too, but aspirin didn’t.. it’s a lot cheaper also..

   oh.. and pro active contains benzoil peroxide.. whereas aspirin contains salicylic acid ..

   honey alone as a mask works very well also.. leave it on for twenty minutes..

   another thing i do as an exfoliate is i scrub my face with an electric toothbrush.. it’s sounds kinda weird but it works.. it really cleans out your pores and removes dead skin, oil and dirt.. you can use any scrub ya like or the aspirin i mentioned.. i like to use st. ives.. and i do it about three times a week..

   only wash your face when you wake up in the morning, before you go to bed, and after exercise.. excess washing makes your face produce extra oil..

   warm water opens pores and cold closes them.. so wash with warm and rinse with cold..

   and watch the make up you use.. a mineral make up is much better for your skin.. it doesn’t clog your pores or cause break outs.. i recommend bare minerals..

   and get a good toner and moisturizer.. i use the garnier nutritioniste moisturizer.. and lemon juice is a good toner..

   drink lots of water.. eat healthy.. and take vitamin e, vitamin c, zinc and b vitamins..

   hope this helps..

   any products in the bare minerals line help so much makeup wise. it contains no preservatives or irritants,is good for your skin, and covers really well. if you are a teenager, you will probably get the best and quickest results from a reputable esthetician. they are like the first line of defense for healthy skin. don’t have to buy a bunch of products, just listen and learn. neutrogena has good shin care products…..drink tons of water..so corny and wives tale sounding, but it does clarify and detoxify your skin. make sure your diet is healthy too. that effects the entire body from the inside out….good luck!
