i started a new thread about this. hopefully we can all share some tips.
my son is 17. plays sports. so keeping his skin clean is real important. as it is to my 12 yr old daughter. what has worked the best to keep their skin clear is washing with johnson and johnson baby soap. the liquid. just like for babies. it doesn't strip the skin of the natural oils. ph balanced. they will use a q-tip to dot on benzoyl peroxide cream. like clearisil if they notice a blackhead or pimple starting. neosporine works well to heal too. it can take awhile to notice a difference. just have to keep at it. changing pillow cases every couple of days is a must too. both have the strydex pads in the lockers at school and gym bags to freshen up during the day. they are also on a good vitamin routine. lots of water. neither drink sodas. ( they may sound like fanatics over this...but my daughter is trying to get into modeloing and sings already..my son has done 2 spots in the crowd on tv shows that got filmed here...plus as you know...the teenage thing....) i had done all the rx stuff with my oldest. it seemed to make matters worse. plus the cost. we also tried proactive for 6 months. didn't phase it at all. adding: when my son is at practise, a game or gym class, he puts sea breeze for sensitive skin on a damp towel to wipe the sweat. it really helps keep the bacteria down during all the activity.
