    Could be hormonal, but try washing your face well twice a day. If that does not work then go to a doctor and get them to prescribe you some anti-biotics which clear up acne very quickly.

    Also, bad acne can be caused by a lack of enzymes in the digestive tract.

    I suggest you take papaya enzymes and eat greek yogurt.
    That should get everything nice and regular....

    When I first got acne, I was told 1. that I was eating allot of greasy food. That was pure bullshit, greasy food is disgusting.... 2. that I needed to wash my face till it hurt. Why would I have to do that?! & 3. this strange belief that bared its resemblance to the Hydra, that if I picked my acne more would sprout up and I'd be scarred for life! I still have some acne hear and there, but my face was scarred....

    People are so strange!

    Depends on your school of thought.
    Some may argue "If you catch a cold, getting a runny nose is normal."
    some would argue "Sickness is not the normal state of the body."

    Acne is thankfully usually less severe than a cold or flu. (I've got some on my face and shoulders.) But it varies.

    Make sure you wash your face with a hypoallergenic cleanser twice a day so that it keeps your pores from clogging. At least that what my dermatologist tells me, I also take minocycline which has helped stop the breakouts. Just make sure not to pick your acne like me sometimes it’s hard to resist.

    Yehh I've had bad acne since i was 10, i've always 'washed my face twice a day', i've tried different cleansers, antibiotics, and it's actually gotten worse, because now i have 'Cystic Acne' which is the most severe kind and it hurts like fuck and scarring is inevitable, thank god i know how to cover it up with makeup!
    But I'm going to try Accutane soon, bloody hope it works!

    What worked for me was going vegan for a while. I stopped eating all animal products, thus eliminating the excess hormones we get in milk and eggs. Within 2 weeks, my face was looking lovely. Now, a year later, I have slipped off the vegan bandwagon, and my forehead and back are telling on me. Time to go vegan again!

    You poor thing. I can give you tips on it f you like! And depending on what age you are it can be a yes/no normal thing. If you're a teenager then it's normal. If you're any older like 15 and up that's different. You can respond if you want me t o give you tips or anything..?
