Spots

i just pop it, then rub a bit of aftershave in it.
bit nippy but it works.
can also use TCP but you wont smell as good after it :)

if its acne, not just the odd spot, then i wouldnt recommend doing this.

Firstly buy any facial wash by Nutragena or Witch, both companies use fragrance free products and oil free so it helps in the long run if you prefer another brand dont buy and sainsburys owns brand for a quide buy the well known brands or something the pharmacists will say is a good product also either purchase Quiniderm(cant rember spelling) cost 4.15 can be bought at all chemists or either Panoxly Acne gel there both creams to be put on you face quinderm should be used twice a day and to be applied thinly which you could wear to school etc and it dosent smell so you could pass it of as an body lotion if anyone ask why you face is more radiant, but panoxly acnegell cant it comes up like an mask with white flakes, even thought this will be your best shot you wont be able to use during the day only when at night but i recommend panoxly acnegel, finally if u still attend school you maybe getting acne by you touching the school tables and touching your face you should maybe experiment, maybe smudge you hands on the table and when you get home see how dirt you wash off from you hands and when u lay on the table and put you hands on you face when you touched the table you may find out where you actually getting this acne from , this is how my spots got bad

There gone away now!

I wash my face every night and try to rub soother cream on my face every night at it works perfect!


Thanks everyone for advice!

Also,if your face is always oily,get some oil blotting papers to minimise the oiliness especially in the T-zone area.

Don't touch your pimple,leave it alone but put some cream on it.Touching your pimple will only leave scars and ruin your looks

You should actually try not to wash your face more than twice aday, as this extracts any natural oils. When washing, use luke warm water, too hot, and it burns, too cold and your pores close. Ive used everything going for my spots (sudocrem, baby bum cream, all the highstreet creams, tea tree oil, blotting papers, toothpaste etc etc) and nothing has seemed to work. The thing the guy on the first page talk about are actually called tetracycline tablets. They come in various strengths, but its often oxytetracycline that they will prescribe. i was on these for over a year, and found that i became immune to thier effects, although they started out good. I am now on my 4th month of accutane, which are tablets that are basically a face peel. Its working great with only getting a few spots every month, however they only presccribe these to patients that have tried all other routes, as they are expensive drugs.
My advise is, dont mess around, go see your doctor instead of wasting your money on highstreet products that dont work.

shrugs,well it works fine for me.I suppose different people have different reaction towards pimples.Some products work good on them,some don't.But yes,I agree you should see a dermatologist

Gratz on your spots going i still got a couple

tbh not really
If none of those thigns are working for you visit your local doctor, they will perscribe you with a cream.

It can depend on your skin so treatments react different to different people.

But don't worry they'll go soon its just puberty x

i'd go to lush and ask, cause they use natural ingredients and i've heard loads of praise about their products!

Yeah like buttons said, too much sun is really bad obviously but too little is bad for how your skin looks. My spots always go away on holiday (ALWAYS) because it's always hot and sunny. Try to go out more or get one of those painfully bright lights for S.A.D.

Don't ever pick your spots if they're not white. You could scar and they're more likely to get bacteria in them from your fingers. Basically stop touching your face! The obvious things really, heaps of people get ache and if you go to the doctor, you'll usually get something that works.

OHH and get a peppermint facemask from lush. it smells sooo good and makes your skin feel so smooth.

i have a friend and he rubbed toothpaste on his and they went more or less ive never really got spots tbh but everyones skins diffrent so youll just have to try a range of diffrent things :)
