Question by Me: Do acne cream products not work while playing sports?
I am a guy in high school and I have really bad acne. I am doing a sport now where I sweat a lot. I tried using neutrogena to treat my acne. It started working for the first 3 weeks, then my acne came back just as bad as before. Why did this happen and what can I do to solve my acne?

When you start using an acne medication it will work for a while but then your skin builds up a resistance much like the body with drugs. You just need to make sure that you wash your face like twice a day since you’re sweating a lot, you will probably want to change your pillow cases often too. If you want a treatment, there is this one that i like, its odd but for me it works and it could work for you too. Look up “Michelle Phan aspirin mask” on youtube, it’s so crazy that it could work, lol.

Acne Marks or Scars
Here is a simple tip that you can use to reduce your acne scars and pigmentation.
The Oil Cleansing Method
What you will need:
Warm Water
Cold Water
Clean Towels
Castor Oil
Olive Oil
The first thing you need to do is to wash your face gently to remove excess dirt and oils from the surface.
You will then need to warm a clean towel in warm water and apply it to your face for 3 minutes. Do the same thing with the cold water but this time for one minute.
Carry out both the warm water and cold water procedure about 3 times but always finish with cold and then pat dry with another clean towel.
Next mix a small amount of castor oil with a small amount of olive oil. A 50/50 ratio will do just fine. Apply the mixture to your skin and let it stay there for 30 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel and you are good to go.
How is your diet? There could be any number of factors involved… but no, acne treatment products work just as well when you’re “playing sports”… literally if you put it on before you go and start sweating it will get all nasty.. so just use an acne face wash in the shower after practice/game or whatever and then apply the acne product to your face after you get out, unless your broskis will make fun of you for trying to get rid of acne, because thats uncool.
