Help!!!

I'm 21 and I haven't had clear skin since I was 18. :(

I had a terrible breakout this summer. It was really horrible, pimples just spread in my face and I was finally able to clear it up a month ago when I started using proactiv, though there are still marks. I was starting to hope that I can be acne free too. When I ran out of proactiv, my mom's friend gave me free arbonne products to test. It was going well for the first two weeks. I even started to wear less make up. I was so happy last week until I got a sudden breakout this week. Now my face is so red. Papules started appearing on my cheeks, chin and forehead. I thought maybe it was because of the Clean & Clear moisturizer that I was using but now I'm not really sure. I used mud mask last Wednesday to at least clear my pores but it didn't work.

What should I do to treat these papules? It really feel horrible cos Thanksgiving is coming and people are going to see me like this. :(

try aspirin mask, it makes pimples to go faster

Your acne was getting better then you got a sudden breakout? Is your clean&clear moisturizer non-comedogenic? Had you eaten something too sweety or fatty?

I've heard that sweet foods can cause breakouts, try preventing them for a couple of days?

It happens to me all the time! When I'm starting to get my hopes up, boom! They're back. -_-

Right?! Wtf is up with that?? I recommend getting a blue led light therapy treatment. You can buy them on amazon, or you can pick up a mask at the drugstore from Neutrogena. It won't tear your skin up with chemicals etc. , and if you do it like two or the times a day, they will clear up quickly.
Also, it sounds like that new system is clogging your pores? Check the ingredients on cosdna.com.
