Acne.

[PaulMacC]

I have a bit of acne on my forehead. My fringe usually covers it up but it annoys me. Any tips for getting rid of it.

other than the obvious creams and things people will tell you to put on there, drink lots of water. probably the best acne cure.

^ agreed
the less you put on your face the better imo. chemicals on your face won't help. if they're red spots, i'd leave them. don't touch them, squeeze them, put on cleansers or creams but drink plenty of water, fruit & veg + exercise. they don't drum it into your head at a young age for nothing. sometimes i put a little tea tree oil (diluted) on my spots to calm them if they're red otherwise i find leaving them alone gets rid of them quicker than squeezing or using facewash.

for the small amount of spots i have, i just use concealer

your fringe may cause the acne aswell due to the oils/dirt/woteva in your hair which is essentially always on your forehead because of the fringe.

hyper calendula fluid. it kills all bacteria within any kind of wound, spots too. I find it will make a spot heal twice as fast as it normally would, although it does sting a bit.

keep your hair clean, and wash your face daily, no need for special soaps or anything - warm water will do the trick.

I used to have really bad achne, then I used a cream for a few months and BOOM acne gone completely

My hairdresser has a really long fringe and he told me that the best thing he done to stop it from giving him an oily forehead was wearing a headband to bed... no matter how stupid you look if it stops you from getting spots it's worth a try lol :| he said during the night is the worst time because you sweat in bed and you're not aware of it, give it a go I guess?

ok i just re-read this post and it really does seem like i'm taking the banana but i'm being srs lol :|

if you're going to look stupid anyway, just put your hair behind your ears

that depends on the length of his fringe ;)

Go see your GP they can prescribe you a few chemicals and tablets. They have definitely improved it for me, although I've been referred to a dermatologist to fully get rid of it.

He might not have 'acne', acne's an illness/skin thing ... it might just be spots, there's a difference :)

Keep your face clean (i.e. wash it often), drink plenty water, try some face creams (Clearasil is actually pretty good).

I have cream I got from the doctor year's ago for spots which prescription I've just kept repeating, it works a treat.

This might be some use, http://simplemom.net/oil-cleansing-method/ - I came across it when stumbling. Seems like a pretty good method to help get clearer skin :)
