What is a good basic skin regimen?

These are all good basic skin regimens that may help with the acne battle:

1. Cleanse twice daily with a 5% benzoyl peroxide wash. An alternative for those who are allergic to benzoyl peroxide is 2% salicylic acid.



2. Apply a gel or cream containing 5% benzoyl peroxide; an alternative is sulfur or resorcinol.



3. At night, apply a spot cream containing sulfur to the affected areas.



4. Use a light skin moisturizer and oil-free makeup.
