I get really bad acne the week before and during what many ftms call "shark week"...yeah, Is there any way to get rid of/hide/clear up my face or any products you find have worked really well.  My face stays pretty clean, other than the occasional sweating when outside, but I just can't seem to keep it clear.
Thanks guys

Only thing that works for me is ProActiv. It's expensive though.

Proactiv is expensive, but I've had luck using the knock-off available almost everywhere called AcneFree for the cleanser part of the system (it's about $6 for a big bottle), using Witch Hazel for the toning part (also much cheaper, like $3-4), and just buying the 2oz. repairing lotion/treatment part of the actual Proactiv system on eBay for about $10 with shipping (lasts me 3 months). 

I didn't find the other two steps of the AcneFree system as effective as the Proactiv brand, but it might work for you, everyone's different.
