We have tried just about every over the counter product, purchased month after month of Proactive, gotten prescription Benzaclyn cream and oral antiobiotic from Dermatologist...all to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions? She's embarrased and other kids can be so cruel

It's not this is it? Keratosis Pilaris. I thought I had acne for years and found that's what it was. Basically, your hair folicles produce to much keratin, and it clogs up all your pores. It can get really yucky if you pick at it and sadly, there really is no cure.
What is keratosis pilaris?
Keratosis Pilaris (KP) is a very common and completely harmless skin condition. In the population as a whole, keratosis pilaris may affect as many as one person in three. Its name gives some idea of what it is. 'Keratosis' means that there is too much keratin – which makes up the tough horny outer layer of the skin: 'pilaris' comes from the Latin word for hair (pilus). In keratosis pilaris, many small (1 to 2 mm. across) horny plugs can be seen blocking the hair follicles on the upper and outer parts of the arms and thighs.
What causes keratosis pilaris?
Keratosis pilaris is an inherited skin condition, running strongly in many families, sometimes with a generally dry skin (ichthyosis). The way it is inherited varies from family to family, but often fits into an 'autosomal dominant' pattern – which means that there will be a 1 in 2 chance that each child of an affected parent will inherit the condition. Keratosis pilaris appears when extra keratin accumulates in the hair follicles. This is usually in childhood, and most obvious during adolescence, often it clears in adulthood. It tends to be better in the summer than in the winter. Keratosis pilaris is harmless, and is not infectious.
What does keratosis pilaris look like?
The groups of small horny bumps are most common on the backs of the upper arms and on the fronts of the thighs. Sometimes keratosis pilaris also affects the torso, back, buttocks and, in less common forms, the face and eyebrows as well. Some redness may appear around the small spiky bumps. If a plug is pulled off, a fine coiled-up hair may be found inside it.

Seriously, I feel for any kid or adult that goes through this. Whatever makes the girl feel like she can face the day. I think Bare Minerals and a good a good Doctor is the way to go. You know what always pissed me off, they told you whatever they gave you "would get worse before it got better"
