Go the pharmacy and ask for something for hypersensitive skin. Ask for a test thingy first since usually this crap is really expensive.
Pop them motherfuckers.

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;25634032]Don't... Popping zits can lead to scarring, and more irritation.[/QUOTE] When you do get them and need them popped, use a tiny needle dipped in alcohol disinfectant (such as hand sanitizer). This way you won't touch your face with dirty fingers and you'll cause minimal damage to your skin (pressing and tearing the skin harms the pores which just leads to more zits) and if done right it will be far less painful than squeezing. NOTE: Disinfect both the needle and the skin around the zit before sticking the needle there.
If it's mostly on you're forehead (like mine) grow a fringe ad it all disappears magically.

Wash your face completely then make a paste out of honey and generic aspirin (getting the aspirin tablets wet will dissolve them) and apply a light layer everywhere the acne is. Worked wonders for me.
Isotretinoin.
-Lots of water -Clean pillow every night -Shower once a day [B]and wash your face too[/B], no splashing water on your face isn't washing it -Less chocolate and sweet stuff
[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;25640765]Isotretinoin.[/QUOTE] Whats that?
There's some speculation that nutrition & acne are related, but it's too inconclusive and controversial at this point. Still, if you're having a lot of junk food, it couldn't hurt to think about a more balanced diet. I've been having some problems due to vitamin deficiency lately, and it caused light acne (acne is never a problem for me). I used to think that vitamins didn't affect me much, but vitamin deficiency sucks horribly. I'm reading that only 10-20% of Americans consume the recommended amount of vitamins & minerals. It's worth paying attention to.
[QUOTE=dengeL;25641033]Whats that?[/QUOTE] Taking a common muscle relaxant, e.g. Bengay, and putting it on afflicted areas.
wash properly and often, drink lots of water, improve diet e.g. less sweets, less dairy.
[QUOTE=RayDark;25641397]Taking a common muscle relaxant, e.g. Bengay, and putting it on afflicted areas.[/QUOTE] K thanks! Btw why did you rate yourself agree? :smug:
Dairy is a major cause for many people's breakouts. It's the only food product that makes me breakout. I can have 10 sodas in a day and not get one breakout. But 1 glass of milk will have me regretting for a whole week.
Wash a towel before bed, put it over your pillow. It's a well-known cure for acne problems.
well im with OP but instead of all these hygene things anyone got a good suggestion of acne cream so i dont have as much? atleast know if its in the new england area(usa durp)
For big breakouts and pussy zits, Neosporin works wonders.
[QUOTE=GoldenGnome;25644692]For big breakouts and pussy zits, Neosporin works wonders.[/QUOTE] does it really? how come neosporin works? i thaught that was for infections.
Try jumping off the empire state building and landing face first. As GlaDoS Would say if this weren't a unsatisfactory mark: "Falling anywhere else would ensure a unsatisfactory life, followed by death."
Hmm... I take Minocycline also. I also use Neutrogena face soap which sucks up the oil and doesn't try out your skin. You should try it.
[QUOTE=Intense Funkid;25645153]does it really? how come neosporin works? i thaught that was for infections.[/QUOTE] Zits have pus. Pus is the result of your white blood cells staving off bacteria. Bacteria cause infection. Neosporin is a disinfectant. Don't use it as a scrub though. Just for the big whiteheads and such.
[QUOTE=GoldenGnome;25644692]For big breakouts and pussy zits, Neosporin works wonders.[/QUOTE] Wow, that sounds pretty useful- Im gonna try that today. Btw, the towel things been helping with my face pretty well.
Penicillin pills can also work wonders for cystic breakouts, since it works under the skin. But, as with Neosporin, don't over do it. Your body can develop resistance and then you're pretty fucked when you get an actual bacterial infection.
