Answers:

If you've tried every acne product (including major acne-fighting ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide and salycilic acid) and you are still have issues with acne, I would look into a possibly more deeply-rooted issue.

First of all, you should refrain from using harsh products that will overdry your skin, as this will actually cause your skin to overcompensate for the drynes by producing more sebum. Find a mild acne cleanser and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. I am sure you do this already, but make sure you wash your face twice a day. If your face gets extra oily around the middle of the day, I would get oil-blotting sheets. I actually wash my face as soon as I get home from work if it is extra oily (usually on warmer, more humid days). You might have to include the third, midday wash if your face is extra oily.

Using hot steam as mentioned above helps as well.

I would take a look at the possibility of acne triggers. Do you tend to break out when you use certain products (including make-up, which could clog pores) or after you have eaten certain foods (I actually tend to break out after I have had non-organic milk and other foods I have sensitivites to)?

I am not sure how old you are, but I am sure you have probably started your period already. At that, the possibility of hormonally-rooted acne could be a contributer. Do you have any abnormal period or PMS symptoms (bloating, late or missed periods, cramping, breast tenderness, spotting, irritability, moodiness etc.)? Do you notice that you tend to break out more the week before your period or the week of? These are all things to pay special attention to when trying to determine the root of your acne problem.

If you have the money, it also doesn't hurt to schedule a facial or two each month. They will extract pimples for you and help you keep your pores clean.

As for dealing with your pimple now, absolutely do not try to pop it, especially too early. If you try to pop it too early, you will be applying too much pressure to the pimple and would actually be pushing the bacteria further in and causing the pimple to errupt. This could actually spread the bacteria and contribute to more acne in the future. When I get pimples on my forehead (I know those are super painful), I actually try applying pure tea tree oil to the pimple. This usually helps it go down a bit. You would have to experiment with different spot treatments to see what works best for you.

There is a lot more information I could give you about this, but I would need more details. Either way, I hope this helps! Good luck!

deal with acne



Don't pop it or mess with it, don't even touch it. Wash it with whatever product you think is best, but only that product. Fill a sink with steaming hot water and put a towel over your head and steam your face for about 10 minutes. Take an ice cube or a really cold wash cloth and put it on the zit. Do the ice thing for two minutes every thirty minutes. This got rid of a huge cyst for me one time. Gross, i know. good luck. :)



Drink plenty of water to flush out any toxins in ur body.
Secondly try steaming your face with a towel over ur head for about 5 mins
Exfoliate ur face with a little bicarbonate of soda but avoid the eye area and actual spot.
If u have something like clean and clear blackhead lotion then cleanse the face with that and dab a little Lavender essential oil on the spot which will calm it down & settle down the redness.



Try sleeping on a 100% silk pillowcase. It is naturally anti bacterial to help prevent one of the main causes of acne.
It's super soft, luxurious, good for sensitive skin, balancing the moisture in your skin & also helps prevent fine lines & wrinkles all while you sleep.
ESSENCEOFSILK.com has more info on it!



sorry, pimples do appear sometimes unfortunately there's not much you can do. Wash your face then put tooth paste on it before you go to bed and wipe it off in the morning it'll be less bad, whatever you do don't pick at it just let it be. I don't get pimples often but when i do i have this problem and they're huge. pimples are pimples and everyone gets them don't stress I'm positive your still beautiful :)
