How I cleared my acne?

Starting at about age 12, I started experiencing acne.  I tried everything to clear it up- Pro Activ, Clinique, Avon, I even had a prescription medication. Nothing was working.  When I was about 14, my acne became very severe, and it was humiliating.  One day, I was cleaning my bathroom and found a bottle of Johnsons Vanilla Oatmeal Baby Wash. Considering it was designed for babies, I figured it obviously had to be a very gentle, mild soap.  I have acne-prone sensitive skin, meaning a gentle, mild soap was just what my skin needed. I was very curious to try this as a facial cleanser; I mean, my acne couldn't have gotten any worse, so I figured I didn't have much to lose. After about a week, I started noticing my acne disappear, and within 2-3 weeks, my acne was gone! I was so excited that I finally found a cleanser that worked! Even better, it was dirt cheap for a massive bottle. I have been using this as a cleanser for a little over a year, and it hasn't failed me yet!  I do get the occasional zit, but that's expected.  The gentle formula is tear-free, so it also works well as an eye make up remover, and it does not irritate your eyes. I only wash my face once day during my shower, (I'm trying to wash it twice a day now, but I'm kind of lazy with that) and then I moisturize after my shower.  I'm currently using Clean&Clear Morning Glow Moisturizer, but I can't say I'm totally satisfied with this product, so I would recommend searching for a better moisturizer- I will let you know when I find one I love!  I hope this post was helpful to you, and maybe now you can be on your way to having beautiful, acne-free skin as well!
