Am i getting acne, help?!?!


Question: Am i getting acne, help?!?
I'm 15, and my parents both had a lot of spots some point in their life. I have freckles (If that has any relevance)

I woke up the other day with like 12 spots, i have recently (The day before i got the spots) done a water fasting diet.

i drink a lot of water.

Am i getting it?! Anyone got any advice for me?

If you get acne there is really nothing you can do about it. You can spend lots of money on creams but some teenagers get it regardless. Limit the chemicals that go into your body. Example many foods that have preservatives, rinse your veggies and fruits before eating them etc. Drinking a lot of water is good. Keep your hair clean and keep you hands off your face. The oil from you hair and hands can contribute to it. Again sometimes it's just a normal teenage experience.

Experience



wash ur face with soap and water everyday. also what works for me is mixing baking powder and water to form a paste. put it on ur spots and they shold b cleared up in no time! dont worry!! good luck by the way:)

p.s. drink alot of water and make sure if u put on makeup wash it of! it really clogs ur pores!!



Wash your face twice a day with warm water and a good face wash.
You can buy good face washes just about anywhere, they're not too exspensive.
I recommend a wash with salicylic acid. It will work just fine with less irritation.
* Benzoyl Peroxide is also effective at treating acne, but in my experience it causes a lot of dryness and redness.

After you wash, make sure you moisturize your skin within 5 minutes.
* It's important to use a non-comedogenic lotion. These kind of lotions do not irritate the skin.
* Keeping your face moisturized will reduce dryness and your face will be less oily. It's very important.

Never touch your face or pop your pimples. Popping them will only make them worse, and they'll spread.
- If you must pop them, wipe your face immediately after with alcohol. This will kill the bacteria so they won't spread.
* Alcohol will dry your face out really fast so I wouldn't do this very often.

*Lemon Juice is used as a homeopathic treatment for acne. Lemon juice also contains one of the AHAs or Alpha Hydroxy Acids and can be used to slough off dead skin, promoting skin elasticity, and enabling new skin cell growth rise from underneath.

Keep your pillow cases clean. Wash them often. Once a week if possible.

This isn't a one time thing, you have to continue this over time to see a difference. Once you get in the routine it will become natural and your face will be flawless!

*** Products I use..

1.) Clean&Clear - Advantage (3 in 1 foaming face wash)
2.) Clean&Clear - Advantage (Acne control moisturizer)
3.) CeraVe moisturizing face wash and lotion
4.) Neutrogena ( On The Spot)
5.) Stridex pads (Sensitive)

- I use 1 in the shower, and sometimes before bed.
- I use 2 before bed on most night.
- I use 3 in the morning to make my face look nice. The lotion won't make your face look oily.
- I use 4 when I see a breakout starting.
- I use 5 when I get home from school, and randomly when I feel like my face is dirty.
