Why is it that i breakout in acne on my face from everything i've used?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Start scientific Rx: Acne remedies such as topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated, which is probably your best choice (if many blackheads consider a retinoic acid derivative), may cause an initial flare.Tough it out. If you are not clear in two weeks, no topical agent will clear you and you need to see your personal physician -- or see him/her now if you're frustrated.
