How can I get my skin clear and keep it from looking so dry?

I suggest you try taking the Skincare Quiz from Avon. It can help you see what types of products may benefit you. It sounds like you may need an exfolliating treatment. I'm an Avon Rep and my customers and myself have had good results with Avon's different skincare lines. If you want to give it a try, here's a link to the quiz. http://shop.avon.com/shop/surveys/anew2/survey_preloader.asp?retake_flag=1&case_flag=4&calling_application=onlinestore&language_id=E

Hey, :) Use Clearasil Ultra if it doesn't cause you any harm. Keeping your skin healthy is the best way to avoid pimples. This can be done by maintaining a healthy diet as well as taking good care of your skin. I suggest you try some home remedies to make sure you don't get breakouts in the future. I shall list out some easy remedies which can be done at home. 1) A lemon & tomato juice mixture can be applied. Apply 2-3 coats & wash it off after about 30 minutes. 2) Applying a milk & sugar mixture & leaving it on for 20-30 minutes it also good. 3) Boil 2 pinches of saffron in milk & add turmeric if you are not allergic to it. Apply it & wash it off after 30 minutes. 5) Apply sandalwood powder mixed with water & wash it off. You'll feel fresh & cool. 6) Carrots, cucumbers & papayas can be used as face packs. 7) Apple peels on your eyes can make them glow. 8) Rubbing your cheeks will beet-root can give them a natural flush. 9) Placing tea bags on blemishes reduce the redness & continuous application is very effective. 10) Applying red sandalwood powder mixed in honey is a good facial. 11) Placing tea bags on your eyes remove dark circles & give your eyes a glow. Whatever you do, make sure you don't expose your skin to direct sun. Also make it a point to drink at least a glass of water after waking up & at least 8 glasses daily. Don't worry about pimples. Keep your skin free from all tensions & also maintain a healthy diet, which includes lots of green veggies. God bless. -Etri
