I’m sure I am not alone when I say I hate acne. Growing up as a teen meant looking in the mirror almost every morning to discover another red spot planted in the middle of my forehead. Then I would try to cover it up with makeup that contained mineral oil which only added to yet another disgusting pimple. I was clogging my pores and wasn’t even aware I was making my problem worse. All I knew is I wanted to get rid of the acne any way I could and camouflaging it seemed like the best remedy at the time. It was a very painful and embarrassing experience. I vowed way back then if I ever had any children I would make sure I would do all I could to help them not have to go through the physical and emotional effects of acne.
My daughter falls in the 85% of Americans who at some point in their lives will have acne. She is just 13 and already starting to see eruptions on her face. I would love to be able to take her to a good dermatologist, but I just can’t afford the extra expense. For now I have to rely on over-the-counter solutions to combat her acne. Some remedies are pricey, others are cheap and don’t work, and several are just way to irritating leaving painful dryness. Basically, its a trail and error method to see what acne medication works the best with her skin type.
For the past week she has been using the OXY Clinical Acne Treatment, Acne Solutions Pack. OXY Clinical is an affordable over-the-counter acne medication that has shown to provide prescription-level results without a dermatologist. OXY combines patented, pharmaceutical-grade ingredients along with continuous-action technology to deliver a quick and effective solution to acne. The 3 part daily regimen consists of

My daughter has seen spot improvement over the course of 6 days. She has been using the acne fighting system twice daily-once in the morning and again before she goes to sleep. I have caught her skipping a treatment or two, so seeing ANY reduction in just a short time is good news. Like with all regimens, the trick is to be consistent. I know she wants to see dramatic results instantly, but I’m encouraging her to be realistic and make a commitment to stick to the skin care routine. OXY claims most people will notice a change in about 3-10 days, and significant results in about 4 weeks. I’m hoping I can convince her to keep using it at least for the full 4 weeks to see how her skin improves. Here is a before and after 6 days photo of her. You be the judge!
I can not guarantee the same results for your teen that my daughter has experienced, but its worth giving it a shot!
