wash your face 2x a day and drink lots of water. if you have a medication like benza clin or proactive, use it before you go to bed. short fixes include getting bangs, but i advise against it since that just puts more oil in unwanted spots.
I used to have acne when i was about 14. i used some cream for it, but i also know that proactiv solution works the best. dont worry about ur acne. just feel confident and smile! forget about ur acne!
my asian friend has forehead acne. if you get your bangs away from your forhead by cutting them or something, you wont get acne there. also wash your face frequently, but lightly. if you scrub, it will get worse.
well…im a guy and acne on a girl is not really attractive, but if the girl is hot and she has a little bit its fine. if you really want to get rid of it fast, i suggest proactiv, cetaphil, or if you are near a chlorinated pool, try going for a swim once in a while because the cholorine should clear up your face
don’t over wash your face or use too much over the counter acne solution. itll just dry you out and force you to use more moisturizer which will in turn make your skin more oily and clog your pores. i suggest using cetaphill its a more expensive wash…but you can get it at like cvs or Walgreen’s whatever..it wont dry you out and its real good on the skin. then use a an astringent i recommend clean and clear.just dab on with a cotton ball. then follow with clean and clear moisturizer it is a good moisturizer with a little bit of acne med in it. good luck and take care
I’m a guy who had an acne problem since 6th grade (im a junior in high school now). I had never had a girlfriend because of my insecurity of my face. But last year i went to a doctor and they told me to take this medication and put on a cream every night. But this is because I had a lot of pimples, I wouldn’t say all over, but a few spread ou here and there. Now, I have way more confidence in myself, but I am still looking for the right girl for me.
So my advice to you is don’t pop or pick them, don’t touch your face with your hands if they are dirty (maybe carry hand sanatizer) and wear sunscreen on your face when it is sunny.
You could also go to the doctor if you get a lot, they’ll help you out.
Guys don’t even notice that kind of stuff. Use paper blotters-http://www.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=1993450- to take the shine off. This will make the problem less noticeable, even though I guarantee you are the only one who notices.
Avoid layering on powder, which will just look cakey and may clog your pores.
I totally know how you feel. Unless it’s That Time Of The Month, get a mild cleanser, and wash your face twice a day with it. If you use a stronger soloution, like Proactiv, only once. If you have bangs, keep them out of your face and keep them really clean. If this is too mortifying to even think of, use cover up, but PLEASE wash it off before bed. Otherwise, it only clogs up your pores more.
I suggest you start with these steps:
1.Avoid oil-based products such as ****** lotions, wash and cosmetics. Look for products that are “non-comedogenic,” it means it will not clog your pores.
2.Do not wear tight headband, baseball hat, and/or helmet when you exercise or play sports, and make sure you wash the sweat-soaked things each time you wear them.
3.Keep the skin hydrated and moist so your cells can function properly. Moisturize your face with mild, non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep it hydrated. Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face after cleansing.
4.Cleanse your pores with an alcohol-free toner or skin conditioner on cotton balls. Do not try to scrub harshly or you will strip and damage your skin. Even after rinsing your face, if you do not remove the remainder of cleanser and loosened debris residues, you are only going to imbed that debris deeper into the pores as you layer serums and moisturizers on top. The absolute best way to perform this deep pore cleansing is with an alcohol-free toner or skin conditioner on cotton balls. There’s no need to harm your skin by vigorous scrubbing or harsh acids, simply wipe with toner damp cotton balls until the last cotton comes away perfectly white.
5.Astringents, Salicylic Acid, retinoic acids, and glycolic acids all work to prevent pores from clogging. Be aware of some active ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, these ingredients can cause major side effects.
For better results, I suggest you also fight your acne from inside, because hormonal problems could also be the worst cause of acne. And for this kind of treatment, please choose safe ingredients… herbals are the best.
Good luck!
DIET is KEY.
*don’t do and/or eliminate as much as possible*
-soda
-sugar/corn syrup
-meat/dairy/eggs
-processed food
-fast food
-(partially) hydrogenated oils (almost in everything)
-additives
-fried foods
-white bread/flour
-beer, to a lesser extent (if you must drink, drink a little wine)
*eat as much as possible*
-SALADS (at least, 1 a day)
-fruit (not canned)
-fruit juice (100%)
-organic
-whole foods
-raw foods
it may take a while for your system to cleanse, but:
-be consistent
-exercise (lower body-running/sit-ups)
-osteopathic adjustments (spine)
-and make an effort to REALLY enforce those dietary guidelines as much as possible; not just a little, but a real effort. read those labels. if you can’t afford to shop at a health food store or your parents don’t eat that way, be prepared to get a job.
You want to keep a 80% alkaline to 20% acid balance in your system; which might be difficult at first, but stick with it (it may take a few months), but, I guarantee, you’ll see an improvement; the longer you stick with it, the better your complexion will continue to get.
Apply the juice of crushed leaves of marigold over the spots.
Make a paste of Kasturi & turmeric & apply the paste on the face daily. The kasturi may also be used before using soap while bathing. The person must not be turmeric allergen.
Grind turmeric, sandalwood, neem leaves & gram flour to make a smooth paste & apply it on face and neck, this could also be used for curing boils.
Make a paste of multani mitti, sandalwood powder & rose water & apply it once in a week.
Put a cotton wool in mint juice extract and then put it out & apply on the acne.
Apply red sandalwood or plain sandalwood paste on face which acts as antiseptic & keeps the skin cool.
Mix a quarter teaspoon of turmeric powder with coriander juice & apply it on face daily before going to bed. It is effective for blackheads & pimples.
The juice obtained from the raw potato is effective in clearing skin blemishes due to high content of potassium, sulphur, phosphorous & chlorine. Care must be taken that the potato is raw potato as they are composed of live organic atoms.
Apply the following scrub thrice a week for acnes and pimples.
Half cup of mashed papaya.
One fourth cup of grated cucumber.
Four to five mashed strawberries.
Make the mixture above and add ½ cup of cornmeal or rice powder and juice of lime. Keep the mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes and then apply it gently on face and neck for another half an hour and then wash it off.
Use lavender oil to apply directly on the acne.
Rub the pimples with fresh cut pieces of garlic.
The swelling can be reduced by placing the strawberry leaves on acne.
Cut the tomato in half & rub it on your face. Keep it for 15 minutes & then wash it off.
The egg white is great remedy overnight, just use a Q-tip to dab on egg white directly to the pimple.
Apply a juice of raw papaya on swelling pimples.
Take vitamin B5 and zinc supplements daily. This would strengthen the skin resistance to acne.
Make a paste of salt in vinegar. Rub it on pimple. Wash it off after 20-30 minutes with lukewarm water
Make a face mask by mixing the white part of an egg and apply it on your face for 15 minutes. The vitamin A in this will affect a lot.
Rub ice cubes on the face for 10-15 minutes. It will tighten the pores on your face.
Massage the face with the skin of lemon before washing with lukewarm water
Orange peel pounded well with water. Apply is to affected areas.
You can also apply a little starch paste on the pimple regularly till the pimple disappears.
Garlic is also used for the treatment of acne. Rub garlic juice several times on pimple, it might hurt but the pimples will vanish without leaving a scar. Consuming raw garlic is also a permanent cure

Hey there,
I know exactly how you feel. I’ve been there and people can be rude sometimes. I suggest having a cleaning routine and sticking to it: wash your face in the morning and before bed, use an over the counter benzoyl peroxide but not too much and only on the affected area otherwise, it will dry out your skin (make sure you go to a dermatologist first) and moisturize, that’s very important.
And when it comes to guys, don’t worry about it. Love yourself, act confident.
I would advice waiting for a man who will love you just the way you are. I found one and he doesn’t even see my pimples.
Remember that your family loves you and your friends do too, just as you are. Focus on your goals and don’t let pimples ruin your life.
Take care.

Whoever said that diet is key, is absolutely right! I have struggled for years with acne. My diet now consists of no sugar, no flour, and no caffeine. Yes, it does get very hard at times..but it is so worth it to not have to wake up to acne in the morning! I never get acne anymore, which is an awesome feeling!
Also, i recently switched to mineral makeup. Since you have mild acne, try using a mineral makeup if you use anything else. Physicians Formula works great!
Good Luck!
um m the best acne cleanser thats only 1 step(not like proactive ) is umm neatragena acne cleanser the one in the orange bottle like in the umm commercial with vannessa hudgens it really works my face got less oily and umm les pimples even skin tone and her are some tips to prevent acne
dont let hair get on or cover places that gets acne because hair has oil and it makes u have more acne so if u have bangs or something on ur forehead where ur acne is then clip it uo ir clip it far off to the side
dont touch ur face a lot and pick at pimples leave it and just wash it
try rubbing lemon on your face every day. sounds weird, but my boyfriend started doing it a week ago and his face is already clearing up. & he’s tried ALOT of stuff before.
yea have that same prob, I’m 14, on my forehead. some things i noticed that caused it:
*touching my face
*greasy bangs
*lotsa chocolate
*that special friend that visits monthly…
*extreme stress
*lack of sleep
things that fix it pretty well:
*shower in morning, wash face, and at end of day wash all makeup off
*washing pillows every 3 days
*washing hands a lot
*fruits
*SUN!
*excersise is GREAT
*clean and clear acne products (morning burst face wash is wonderful smelling and wakes u up!)
hope it helps a ton, and don’t b afraid around guys b/c of that problem. What I do is just catch their eyes and keep their eyes there (or, even, focus them downward)
I’m very sorry to hear your frustration but just like you I’m one who suffers from acne, and not only on my face but my back, shoulders and chest. Recently I received some mail from Men’sHealth called Tips for 2008. While reading this booklet I came across a tip for acne. It read as follows:
Acne
————————————–
The Remedy:
Zinc gluconate
Why it works:
It fights both existing acne and acne that has yet to appear. And while some acne-causing bacteria are resistant to antibiotics, a French study shows that they’re not immune to zinc. When 30 acne sufferers supplemented their diets with 30mg of zinc gluconate daily for 2 months, they had fewer breakouts and no sign of resistant bacteria on their faces.
Our pick: Nature Made Zinc; naturemade.com ($8 for 100 30mg capsules).
I tried it and have been taking it for about 3 months now and my face is clean and clear and I hardly have a breakout anymore. My chest and shoulders are clear as well and my back is getting better and better. Give it a try, it defiantly helped me and hope it helps you too.
Also note that I wash my face twice a day with Noxzema Blackhead Cleaner and moisturize with Olay Complete Sensitive Skin.
Wishing you clear and beautifu l skin.
if you have acne. i’d say if you have a juicer at home. Juice about half a glass of carrots and sweet potatoes. It will get rid of those bad acne
In common parlance, acne occurs when the pores of the skin are blocked by natural oil produced by our bodies and dirt. This mostly occurs during the onset of puberty, as the hormones are developing and also occurs regularly in pregnant women.
There are various acne products available in the market. People are taking antibiotics as an acne treatment much more today than in the past. However what happens is that your body becomes resistant to them, thus eliminating antibiotics as the best acne treatment.

I’m a guy..I dont mind girls with none-mild acne as long as there still a good person.
