I'm 26 and have been dealing with adult acne since I was 22, It seems as if I get new breakouts everyday, and when I'm not broken out, I have horrible scars around my chin. Does any other adult have this problem too?Help with adult acne?
I would use the Neutrogena Wave once or twice a day (in the morning + at night)
Or St. Ives Apricot Scrub
Even...Neutrogena Skin ID

I'm only 16, but I've started applying baking soda (yes, baking soda), to my face twice a day, once in the morning, once at night. It's only been about two weeks and I've cleared up so much that people have been complimenting my skin. Basically, it is cheap and effective. About 1 dollar for a container of arm and hammer baking soda and it will last a long time.
Just take about a teaspoon of baking soda and mix it with water to form a paste. Rub it gently on to your face and leave it on for about 5 minutes. The only cons are that it will sting a bit and might leave your face dry, so you might want to use an oil free moisturizer afterwards.

..........Adult Acne?
Ugh.
I'm so sick of having acne!
I'm 21 and I've had acne since I was like 13.
Does anyone know what causes adult acne and what is the best way to get rid of it?
I just went on Yaz which has helped before but I can't really get rid of it completely...........Adult Acne?
My sis also have been in the same situation as you for much more time, now she is completely free from acne :) She had tried lots of medications n over the counter products but none of them seemed to have really work, then she opted for herbaceous remedies which was one of the best things she did...........Adult Acne?
21? You're still young! I just turned 40 and still dealing with it. Nothing seems to clear it up for me, some medication only helps a little. My cause I'm sure is stress related, which causes so many types of problems. Good luck!
Try making an appointment with a dermatologist. They will run some tests on you to determine what is causing your acne. The causes are different for everyone.

Hi! I have adult acne too, so I can appreciate how you feel. I never had it as a teenager, but in my 20s started getting spots mostly around my mouth and chin (typical adult acne locations). I tried the 'teenage' skincare products which didn't help (they are too strong for adult skin, and are designed for teenage, hormonal acne - though at 21 you are still young), tried clinique 3-step, which made it a little worse, and finally saw a dermatologist. I thought that would be the answer to my problems, but the creams she gave me were really strong and my face literally hurt. It peeled, turned red, and I started getting wrinkles! My face has never been the same since, even though I stopped using the creams (Duac and Differin) after a couple of months. They really aged my skin, and I now have visible pores.
Since then I've been researching it on the internet and it seems the best products to use are a gentle salicylic acid wash, and then 2.5% benzoyl peroxide on the affected areas - both available cheaply in drugstores. All skin benefits from moisturizer, use an oil-free one, I love Aveeno Ultra Calming with SPF 15. For night time I like Oil of Olay Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish. See the website http://www.acne.org for some great tips and bulletin chat boards to see what other people advise, another good one is http://www.healthboards.com/boards/forum鈥?/a> Make sure anything you use is labelled ';non-comedogenic'; - ie doesn't clog pores - and oil-free (I know, ';Oil'; of Olay right? They do make oil-free stuff too!).
You need to be really gentle with your skin, only washing it twice a day, gently, and don't touch your face during the day. Some people find a deep cleansing face mask is good once or twice a week. Try a clay one with kaolin to draw out dirt and impurities. Also I like St Ives Gentle Hydroxy Peel. Make sure you drink lots of water and take a multi-vitamin every day. Stress is a major cause of acne, so try to minimise this (easier said than done I know!) Also if you are on hormonal birth control this can cause acne - there are contraceptive pills that can help with acne too. Personally I find oranges/orange juice makes me break out... but that might just be me! Also if you wear make-up - make sure its oil-free, and keep your make-up brushes clean - buy new ones and wash them in shampoo at least once every couple of weeks. (This made a big difference for me in the amount of break-outs I got). Try using mineral make-up (I like http://www.everydayminerals.com), much healthier for skin.
If you want to try a kit which is cheaper, and works just as well, as pro-active, I really like Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne kit (contains a salicylic acid wash, benzoyl peroxide to use at night, and sunscreen to use during the day), or L'Oreal Adult Acne system, also L'Oreal do an Adult Acne Peel to help with past acne marks, to use twice a week.
Take care of your skin now before it gets worse and you get scars. Oh, and try not to pop a spot, no matter how tempting, it leaves a mark that takes forever to fade.. or may cause a permanent scar.
And remember you are your own worst critic - next time you scrutinise your spots up close in the mirror, remember most other people don't see you so close. Stand a reasonable distance away from the mirror and that's what people see - not so bad now is it?! Oh and mineral make-up really helps, most people find their skin is much better after wearing it, much healthier than thick foundation. And trust me, it really covers those spots!
Good Luck!
Clearasil makes an adult formula that I like for occasional blemishes. Other than that - plain old Neutrogena bar soap is great. I'm 51, and I REGULARLY get mistaken for somebody in my early 30s (still amazes me, but it happens a lot - so I must be doing SOMETHING right).
wash daily with hot water and vinegar, it will clear it up and then do it every so often to keep it clear.

Whats the best way to naturally clear up adult acne on a african american woman with combination skin? I have breakouts and dark circles, and acne scars. PLEASE HELP!!!Adult acne?
I suggest you to go for natural one; others definitely have side effects. A good face pack of neem leaves with a pinch of turmeric is very good for acne prone skin. More home remedies available at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/acne.htmlAdult acne?

I am 32 and I've been dealing with acne for about 14 years. I'm so glad that I'm a woman so I can wear makeup to cover it. It's mostly on my chin. It's like I can never have a day where I don't have at least one zit on my face. How frustrating. I used to take Tetracycline and that helped. Differin never helped but being on the pill did. Right now I'm trying to get pregnant so I don't want to be on anything. What has helped you? Medications or other things? Thanks!Adult Acne?
First of all, no one has flawless skin. Some people have it better than others, but thats just genes and stuff. Go to www.freewebs .com/reelbeauty11 for skin and beauty tips. I know its for young girls, but it works for anyone!
I know some people who have tried ProActive and it worked, but I also know some others who have tried it and it made it worse :( I know some who have put rubbing alchol on their skin or peroxcide to dry up the pimples. It also kills bacteria :) . Also, try going to a dermotoligist, or ask your regular doctor. Often times the regular doctor, who knows more about your med. history and whatnot can help you more than a dermatologist.
are you a vegetarian? That might have something to do with it. Its worth checking into.
Try dabbing toothpaste or honey on your zits before you go to bed - works wonders.
Overall, remember that beauty counts more on the inside than on the outside, and your true friends will love you for you, and not your skin.
Oh, and try a different kind of foundation, if you wear it. Try to use a kind with lots of water in it. It looks great and doesn't clog pores half as bad. And check your habits - do you prop your chin up a lot with your hands? That might cause the acne as well. Look for the cause, as well as the cure.Adult Acne?
Benza Cline help me my face went from very bad to ok
a lot of times its food related. try a soy based powdered nutrient. I had it bad and a lot of that cleared after a few weeks. still need to sort out what youre eating too. a fast with soup and other liquids will help keep you nourished and allow you to weed out what foods will affect a breakout.
any skin care products with mineral oil in it will clog you pores more. If your trying to get pregnant like I am stay off the meds try topicals Arbonne has a great line call clear advantage.in the sources i'll put a link to some before and after pics
if you need more if just im or email me. good luck!!
toothpaste over the pimple. make sure its paste not gel. leave it on overnight and wash off in the morning
It is believed that adult acne is caused by the overproduction of hormones in the body, which is why most treatments focus on lowering the level of hormones. Adult acne is usually treated with drugs under the supervision of a professional dermatologist. From my personal experience I can recommend a simpler treatment that is, believe it or not, just as effective.
I heartily recommend The ClearPores System to fight your adult acne both from outside and INSIDE, with its herbal blend.
You can visit the official site for more info: http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickth鈥?/a>
Adult acne is not as infrequent as people like to think, but that does not mean that it has to be allowed to become a social drawback. If you suffer from adult acne, then you should see your doctor or simply give the ClearPores System a try. You鈥檇 be surprised how many adults got rid of their acne using the excellent ClearPores. Whatever the choice, you have my best wishes.

Hi Mandy
Here is an unusual but very effective method to heal many issues (especially skin). Also whatever you focus on in life you attract. If you focus more on acne issues instead of healthy habits%26lt; you will have more acne issues. Just focus on the positives of life because that is what you want correct? The universe knows what you dont want. Be thankful everyday and focus on the bright and healthy future.

INTRODUCTION TO OIL PULLING (';OP';)
REPORTED CURES WITH OIL PULLING:
Mouth %26amp; Gum Disease; Stiff Joints; Allergies; Asthma; Acne, High Blood Sugar; Constipation; Migraines; Bronchitis; Eczema; Heart, Kidney, Lung Diseases; Leukemia; Arthritis; Meningitis; Insomnia; Menopause (hormonal issues); Cancer; AIDS; Chronic Infections; Varicose Veins; High Blood Pressure; Diabetes; Polio; Cracked Heels,.
Here's are a few paragraphs from Bharat Savur's article on The Hindu Business Online
...';When Dr Karsch examined the swished milk-white oil under a microscope with 600 magnification, he saw live organisms swimming in it. It's poisonous, so never swallow it, he warns. These poisons are bacteria-embryos, which, if not eliminated, cause diseases. Apparently, Dr Karsch cured his own chronic blood disease and 15-year-old arthritis.
The first sign of improvement is in the teeth-they become firm and white, he says. Other healing indications: fresh, relaxed feeling on waking up, disappearing dark pouches below the eyes, anew appetite and energy, better memory and deep sleep.
Dr Karsch swears by the mouth oil-wash for anything from organ-disorders, skin-diseases, menstrual problems, paralysis to every ache and it is in the human anatomy. You can swish even when you have fever, he says, adding, it takes anything from two days to a year to cure a disease.
And if these claims sound exaggerated, he told a conference of Ukrainian cancer specialists, try out the process yourself.
Interestingly, Ayurveda advises oil swishing ';to purify the taste-buds and the entire system';, as explained by Dr Deepak Chopra in Perfect Health.
According to this life science, the tongue is mapped by organ-locations 鈥?that is, each section of the tongue is connected to the kidneys, lungs, spleen, liver, heart, pancreas, small intestines, stomach, colon, and spine.
Thus, an oil-mouth-massage soothes and stimulates the key meridians where taste meets organ. Simultaneously, as in any skin-massage, the inner skin and lining of the mouth, palate and tongue become warm and supple and the lubrication prevents dryness (the vatic effect).
In modern dietetics too, dryness is discussed.
For example, lack of Vitamin A (retinal) causes the outer lining of the eyeball to dry and wrinkle, and affects vision.
And as any dietician would tell you, all oils contain 960 micrograms of vitamin A per 10 gm (the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A per adult is 600 micrograms). So, it's possible that oil gargling helps in reaching the required retinal to the eyeballs and keeps them elastic and smooth.
Likewise, the Ayurvedic `purification of taste-buds' also has its equivalent in dietetics as `antioxidants'. Oxidation literally means `the putrefaction of body-tissues'.
And oil-soluble vitamins, A, C, D, and E are antioxidants that protect and prevent the decaying process and help maintain the integral functioning of cell membranes. That's why many people are ingesting vitamin E pills to stem `aging' (oxidation). ';

Hey... Thanks for all your help.. to everyone!!!!!!!! Report Abuse
Acne develops for a number of reasons. It could be that your hormone levels have changed in a different way or that your skin is now more prone to hosting P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for most acne. Is your skin drier now? If it cracks or has other micro-injuries, this helps P. acnes to inflame your skin in certain spots around your face.
Hi!
I actually found a facial oil that slows down your skins oil production, clears up pimples/ acne and dissolves black heads within 4-8 weeks I put all the info on my blog as it's quite detailed:
http://beautymoi.blogspot.com/
I also put a full article of how to extract blackheads and steam your skin.
Black heads are basically a hardened oil mixture that was secreted from your pores and oxidized (which makes the outside part black) and since water and oil don't mix, no water based product can ';clean'; your blackheads away, just try say putting certain foundations or makeups on the mirror and if you wipe it with water it smudges all over but put a little baby oil and wipe and tada! it comes off super clean AND dissolves it. So this is basically how this oil works. It's composition is such that the skin accepts it as a healing oil and it does not clog your skin but rather protects it while the plant extracts inside go down into the pores (this absorption is made possible by applying the toner to the skin before applying the oil and then applying the dabs of oil over your moistened face), it then penetrates into the pores.
I put where to the name of the oil and prices in stores versus on eBay as well as how to apply it on my blog:

Also you may want to Google Drying Lotion by Mario Badescu.
Take care and good luck!

many adult women suffer from ance due to the changes in their hormone levels. i started breaking out in my late 20's - so the best advice i can give, is see a dermatologist. and yes, it's very common to suffer from depression from breakouts. not only does it make you self concious, but we all know women are judged on their appearances more then men, so we get the added pleasure of that pressure. i'm sure it's a hormonal thing. did you start on the pill recently, or switch b/c? that could be a cause as well. best bet in any situation is seeing a doctor, since as adults, it's usually a hormone issue.
I believe that you may have a condition called Hidradenitis Supprativa. It is a condition of re-occurring boils/ cysts/abscesses , that are often misdiagnosed as ingrown hairs, herpes, being unclean and folliculitis. This is a newly diagnosed skin condition , but there is a lot of info out there.
Here is a link :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidradeniti鈥?/a>
If this sounds like it might be you, READ it, PRINT it out, and TAKE it to your DOC.
Its better to try to start treatment soon, it can spread over the body if left untreated. These boils can become quite large and painful. Sometimes even lasting for weeks or months , do not attempt to POP them they can then tunnel under your skin and spread all over the body. Most common areas are armpits, groin, binkni line, inner legs, and intimate places and basically anywhere that sweats and rub against clothing. Stress is a big inducer.
There is some support groups at MSN , and yahoo, and I am open for questions!
I have had this for 8 years, I was misdiagnosed for a LONG time, It was very embarrassing, painful and scary. I am just trying to help out so you don鈥檛 have to wait as long as I did.
Maybe you've developed an allergy to food or a product you are using. Try eliminating certain things from you diet one food group at a time for at least two weeks. If you don't see an improvement there, change up your detergents and make-up to see what happens.
PIMPLES
Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin鈥檚 pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one鈥檚 parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.
The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.
GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.
1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .
2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.
3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don鈥檛 when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.
4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic
quality.
5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.
6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.
7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.
8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.
9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and
pimple scar.
10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.
11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.
12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and
yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.
13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.
14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.
15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.
16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.
17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.
Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.
Hey,don't worry.all these things happened in life.Pl avoid the use of spicy as well as the high amount of sugar in ur daily diet and use fresh fruits like papaya,citrus and also rose water.InshAllah u will be recover ur old skin.keep smilling and respect the elder and tender to ur yuongster.
YOu can be breaking out from a number of reasons. Stress, hormones, products.....it could be anything. See a dermotologist and suggest Tazorac cream and use a gentle cleanser....Mario Badescu has some great face washes for acne. You can find them online. And most importantly.....do not pick or squeeze, this is the ultimate way for acne to spread.
Hope this helped!
Check with Dr. Can be adult acne, stress/hormones, or Rosacea...I have Rosacea and the medicine I use actually helps make acne go away/prevent. Nice skin now :)
(Er, a side note someone said that if you forget to wash pillow case that residual oils can build up and get on skin along with bacteria....wash pillow case often...)color cosmetics
Then about two months ago.. my skin gradually started to break out... like more that your average little blemish here or there... I don't understand it because I never had to worry about my skin before.. it's starting to make me feel really self concious (sp? sryy..

Dr Karsch swears by the mouth oil-wash for anything from organ-disorders, skin-diseases, menstrual problems, paralysis to every ache and it is in the human anatomy. You can swish even when you have fever, he says, adding, it takes anything from two days to a year to cure a disease.
And if these claims sound exaggerated, he told a conference of Ukrainian cancer specialists, try out the process yourself.
Interestingly, Ayurveda advises oil swishing ';to purify the taste-buds and the entire system';, as explained by Dr Deepak Chopra in Perfect Health.
According to this life science, the tongue is mapped by organ-locations 鈥?that is, each section of the tongue is connected to the kidneys, lungs, spleen, liver, heart, pancreas, small intestines, stomach, colon, and spine.
Thus, an oil-mouth-massage soothes and stimulates the key meridians where taste meets organ. Simultaneously, as in any skin-massage, the inner skin and lining of the mouth, palate and tongue become warm and supple and the lubrication prevents dryness (the vatic effect).
In modern dietetics too, dryness is discussed.
For example, lack of Vitamin A (retinal) causes the outer lining of the eyeball to dry and wrinkle, and affects vision.
And as any dietician would tell you, all oils contain 960 micrograms of vitamin A per 10 gm (the recommended daily allowance of vitamin A per adult is 600 micrograms). So, it's possible that oil gargling helps in reaching the required retinal to the eyeballs and keeps them elastic and smooth.
Likewise, the Ayurvedic `purification of taste-buds' also has its equivalent in dietetics as `antioxidants'. Oxidation literally means `the putrefaction of body-tissues'.
And oil-soluble vitamins, A, C, D, and E are antioxidants that protect and prevent the decaying process and help maintain the integral functioning of cell membranes. That's why many people are ingesting vitamin E pills to stem `aging' (oxidation). ';

Best of health to youAbout acne developing in adults..?
Hey... Thanks for all your help.. to everyone!!!!!!!! Report Abuse
Acne develops for a number of reasons. It could be that your hormone levels have changed in a different way or that your skin is now more prone to hosting P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for most acne. Is your skin drier now? If it cracks or has other micro-injuries, this helps P. acnes to inflame your skin in certain spots around your face.
Hi!
I actually found a facial oil that slows down your skins oil production, clears up pimples/ acne and dissolves black heads within 4-8 weeks I put all the info on my blog as it's quite detailed:
http://beautymoi.blogspot.com/
I also put a full article of how to extract blackheads and steam your skin.
Black heads are basically a hardened oil mixture that was secreted from your pores and oxidized (which makes the outside part black) and since water and oil don't mix, no water based product can ';clean'; your blackheads away, just try say putting certain foundations or makeups on the mirror and if you wipe it with water it smudges all over but put a little baby oil and wipe and tada! it comes off super clean AND dissolves it. So this is basically how this oil works. It's composition is such that the skin accepts it as a healing oil and it does not clog your skin but rather protects it while the plant extracts inside go down into the pores (this absorption is made possible by applying the toner to the skin before applying the oil and then applying the dabs of oil over your moistened face), it then penetrates into the pores.
I put where to the name of the oil and prices in stores versus on eBay as well as how to apply it on my blog:

Take care and good luck!

many adult women suffer from ance due to the changes in their hormone levels. i started breaking out in my late 20's - so the best advice i can give, is see a dermatologist. and yes, it's very common to suffer from depression from breakouts. not only does it make you self concious, but we all know women are judged on their appearances more then men, so we get the added pleasure of that pressure. i'm sure it's a hormonal thing. did you start on the pill recently, or switch b/c? that could be a cause as well. best bet in any situation is seeing a doctor, since as adults, it's usually a hormone issue.
I believe that you may have a condition called Hidradenitis Supprativa. It is a condition of re-occurring boils/ cysts/abscesses , that are often misdiagnosed as ingrown hairs, herpes, being unclean and folliculitis. This is a newly diagnosed skin condition , but there is a lot of info out there.
Here is a link :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidradeniti鈥?/a>
If this sounds like it might be you, READ it, PRINT it out, and TAKE it to your DOC.
Its better to try to start treatment soon, it can spread over the body if left untreated. These boils can become quite large and painful. Sometimes even lasting for weeks or months , do not attempt to POP them they can then tunnel under your skin and spread all over the body. Most common areas are armpits, groin, binkni line, inner legs, and intimate places and basically anywhere that sweats and rub against clothing. Stress is a big inducer.
There is some support groups at MSN , and yahoo, and I am open for questions!
I have had this for 8 years, I was misdiagnosed for a LONG time, It was very embarrassing, painful and scary. I am just trying to help out so you don鈥檛 have to wait as long as I did.
Maybe you've developed an allergy to food or a product you are using. Try eliminating certain things from you diet one food group at a time for at least two weeks. If you don't see an improvement there, change up your detergents and make-up to see what happens.
PIMPLES
Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin鈥檚 pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one鈥檚 parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.
The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.
GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.
1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .
2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.
3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don鈥檛 when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.
4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic
quality.
5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.
6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.
7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.
8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.
9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and
pimple scar.
10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.
11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.
12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and
yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.
13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.
14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.
15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.
16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.
17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.
Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.
Hey,don't worry.all these things happened in life.Pl avoid the use of spicy as well as the high amount of sugar in ur daily diet and use fresh fruits like papaya,citrus and also rose water.InshAllah u will be recover ur old skin.keep smilling and respect the elder and tender to ur yuongster.
YOu can be breaking out from a number of reasons. Stress, hormones, products.....it could be anything. See a dermotologist and suggest Tazorac cream and use a gentle cleanser....Mario Badescu has some great face washes for acne. You can find them online. And most importantly.....do not pick or squeeze, this is the ultimate way for acne to spread.
Hope this helped!
Check with Dr. Can be adult acne, stress/hormones, or Rosacea...I have Rosacea and the medicine I use actually helps make acne go away/prevent. Nice skin now :)
(Er, a side note someone said that if you forget to wash pillow case that residual oils can build up and get on skin along with bacteria....wash pillow case often...)
Most of the adults don't have acne.... ?
I'm 22, and i've try everything..... will my acne go away with age?Most of the adults don't have acne.... ?
Your right, as an adult, our hormones are pretty much caput. You are still young, and if your acne is still an issue, you can either go to a dermatologist and he will put you on a low dose antibiotic (because is usually is a bacterial infection of the skin); my daughters' acne clear up in no time with it. You just can hang out in the sun with it. Or try the acne program you see on TV (I forget the name), it's cheaper in Walmart, but does the same thing. That worked for my teens too.Most of the adults don't have acne.... ?
So many people asking this question today. It won't go away unless you change your eating habits.
or use some kind of acne medication... like Neutrogena
but to answer your question in one sentence: acne has no age limit.
It might go away when you're 30 or 40... maybe not.
Yes, it will.
