Would you ever not go to an event because of a breakout?
Beth, 16, Alexandria, VA
"That depends how bad, and how much fun I thought the event would be. Those times when physical appearance is extra-emphasized, like dances or picture day-those are the worst."
Diane, 15, Dallas, TX
"Oh my God, never! That's why drug stores sell concealer!"
Jake, 15, Rockville, MD
"If I had a really bad breakout, I would probably stay home."
Have you ever discussed your concerns about acne with your parents?
Marion, 17, Philadelphia, PA
"I'd rather die of embarrassment than talk about this stuff with my parents!"
Tara, 14, San Diego, CA
"Yes, I've discussed acne with my mom. She said if it gets worse, I could see a dermatologist. It helped that my mom said she had the same problem at my age."

Easiest treatment for acne, put Neosporin cream on any spots every night before bed and again after washing your face in the morning. Most importantly, wash your face morning and night. Use the Neosporin cream, not the ointment. Use it daily, you will see a difference within days.
