I've seen many topical treatments that are supposed to get rid of and prevent acne. I have noticed that some of these treatments are conflicting. Some people tell you to put moisturizer with aloe on your face, and some people tell you to use salicylic acid, which dries out the acne.
So what is the correct treatment?
-
soap to get rid of the oil on your skin, then acid to open up the pores. followed by some medicated acne lotion/soap/whatever you call it to clean out the pores and then heal them up.
