Most Effective Acne Fighting Products

Acne affects millions of Americans, but there are acne-fighting products that will effectively eliminate the skin eruptions.

Cleanser for Sensitive Skin Types

Continually using a standard cleanser or soap can irritate the skin, causing overly dry and inflamed skin. Use only a soap or cleanser that is designed for sensitive skin types.

Toner Without Alcohol

Alcohol-based toners will dry out the skin and can sting. Use a toner that has a base of witch hazel.

Low-Strength Benzoyl Peroxide Cream

Benzoyl peroxide creams are powerful acne fighters. Using a lower-strength benzoyl peroxide cream will clear the skin without causing redness or peeling.

Sensitive Skin Moisturizer

After treating the skin with benzoyl peroxide, it is important to moisturize the skin to prevent the skin from becoming too irritated or dry. Use only an oil-free lotion or moisturizer so it will not clog the pore or cause acne.

Calamine Lotion Overnight Treatment

Calamine lotion makes a wonderful nighttime treatment, and can dry up and clear larger cystic acne quickly. Apply a dab of calamine lotion to the acne blemishes, leaving it on overnight.
