[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm nervous about using acne medications on my 11 year old, who has pimples all over her face. She's using an acne scrub I bought at Whole Foods (Aubrey Organics?) that seems to be helping. I've heard that Virgin Coconut Oil and Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar can help with acne, but we have not yet tried these remedies.'

In DD's case, eating rice is a big factor. She has a number of food intolerances, but rice makes her face break out big time. Odd, isn't it? She doesn't eat wheat or dairy either, or peanuts, but she used to eat a lot of rice. She's approaching puberty, so I'm sure it's hormonal. I'll report back if the VCO or ACV works! [/quote]

I wouldn't try coconut oil on my face. I'm 46 and have struggled with acne for years. Proactiv works really well for me!! I did have someone really into natural remedies tell me that Proactiv is bad for me because it works so well. She wanted to sell me a natural remedy probably similar to your whole foods product. A friend also told me to use a cleansing oil with a whole story about how it would counteract the oil in my skin. Thanks but I will stick with Proactiv.
