Rather than a spotty teen. I just get the odd hormonal chin spot on my otherwise, reasonably decent, skin. What is good these days?

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. It's a bit weird but boy does it work!

Definitely the spot patches. They're amazing and a bit disgusting.

Clean & Clear spot treatment gel. Made by Johnson & Johnson. Comes in a silver tube with blue writing on it. Excellent stuff.

This is the best I've found, although I did rate the Mario Badescu stuff mentioned by PP:

I use dots for spots but haven’t tried any of the other solutions mentioned here. I leave the sticker on over night and it’s usually reduced a bit in the morning. They work better apparently if you prick the surface of the spot a little but I don’t usually.

Drs for a topical. You shouldn’t be getting monthly breakouts.
