I did as a kid, but after reaching about 20 it just faded away. I found this information and wanted to pass it along. Acne treatments have come along way since I was a teenager back in the 80's. Check it out at www.candlecorner.org/Acne

Thanks for the great link. As a teen I pretty much had good skin and no acne. Sure I would have the random zit or two every now and then, but not a full fledged problem. But these days I have had breakouts on my skin, and in fact it was much worse a few months back. People keep telling me that my face is dirty or that I eat junk food a lot, when that is not true at all. Now I have something to back that up. I guess what makes it worse is unsolicited advice from people with better skins. They feel they somehow have a right, to criticize and constantly advise people with bad skin, when the fact remains that they cannot because the skin type of everyone is different. I guess that aggravates the problem more since people with bad skin are eager to try anything new to solve their problems and more than often it turns out to make things worse. Thanks for the great site, I've already bookmarked it and I think it will help me in future to take better care of my skin.

Hey thanks for the BR. The site has already been helpful, I discovered that I was washing my face too much and using scrubs instead of mild cleansers and it seems better already. And is this true, that you can use hydrogen peroxide like in face bleaches, just for the marks of the pimples, I heard Carmen Electra say it in one of the shows, maybe I'll try it.
