Guess what!! You and I have the same acne-prone spots!. Your spots are the very places where I also get acne! For my breakouts, I use this regimen, and it works great on those hyper-oily places:
-First cleanse with astringent (using cotton balls) : very cheap, $1/bottle at dollar stores
-Mix baking soda and water together, not too much water, till moist and spreadable!. Paste onto face until a smooth thick layer covers the zit area!. Make sure you do this overnight!
-Wash off carefully in the morning and repeat the next couple nights!. Then you have to give your face a break for a few nights and use regular acne treatment!.
-For day and non-baking-soda nights, I use a 2% salicylic acid remedy that cost $7 for a medium size bottle at Walmart, called Acne Stress-Free!. I rub this on also during the day before applying coverup!. Make sure your coverup won't contribute to acne!. I have a Maybelline 2% acne treatment cover stick that's just my skin tone and dots onto any zit!
Hope that helps! I've tried about a hundred things and currently that's the one working for me!. My skin is so weird, in a few months this won't work and I'll find a new regimen!. But this one is great!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Have your pimples come to a head!? Because then you can drain them (or have a cosmetician do it, if you don't know how)!.
Otherwise, I recommend putting a thick layer of benzoyl peroxide (buy at a drugstore)!. You can also try hydrogen peroxide if you have it at home, but might not work as well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
