How do I get rid of the acne on my chin and nose?
Eνеrу area οf mу skin except fοr mу nose аnd chin… аnd sometimes around mу lips… іѕ PERFECT. I аm absolutely рlеаѕеd wіth mοѕt οf mу complexion. I hаνе whаt I thіnk аrе black heads аnd clogged pred οn mу nose… аnd I саn’t seem tο gеt thеm tο gο away. On mу chin, іtѕ іѕ always slightly red аnd oily аnd bumpy аnd pimples pop up еνеrу now аnd thеn. I hаνе a problem covering up thеѕе areas wіth concealer. Anyone hаνе аnу suggestions аѕ hοw tο treat thеѕе areas?????
hey–
i have sort of the same problem, so i know how frustrating it can be.
i know what i’m about to say gets said a LOT, but it really works for me so i’ll say it again. the best thing you can do for your complexion is to GET ENOUGH SLEEP. i’m not kidding. if i stay up late or sleep restlessly my nose breaks out the next day or the day after. another big one is DRINK LOTS OF WATER.
another big one is DON"T TOUCH YOUR FACE! grease and grime from your hands gets on your face, especially on your nose and chin and KaBoom! if you use hair products, consider washing your face after you use them instead of before. at night when you go to sleep, use an astringent cleanser and sleep with your hair pulled back or off of your face. cover girl makes these little concentrated concealer sticks that have sylicic acid in them—- they look like skin-colored eyeliner pencils or something. anyway, they work great because it keeps the spot clear and dry while concealing, as opposed to just putting concealer over it and making it worse even though its hiding it.
i LOVE biore products. especially the triple action astringent cleanser. the pore-minimizing everyday face scrub. and i also like the Aveeno correcting treatment. its really gentle and i use it instead of lotion. stay away from clearasil– it is the kiss of death!
good luck.
Use proactive…………it works great. It even softens your skin and gives a healthy glow.
Is it absolutely necessary to find a skin regiment that works for you and stick with it daily. Dont skip a day and don’t slack off. If you wear makeup make postively sure that all of your makeup is completely off before you go to sleep. That can be devasting to your skin. Even a skin care regiment doesn’t completely remove all makeup so try using cold cream on harsh makeup areas, such as eyes.
I know everyone and their mother recommends Proactiv and I’m just another one of them. USE IT. It works. And this is coming from someone who tried everything to clear my skin including prayer. Haha! NOTHING cleared my pores, and I mean nothing. The pores on my nose were huge and absolutely nothing I tried would clear them up one bit. I used Proactiv the first time and my pores haven’t clogged up since. Please try it. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Use a cream that has Benzoyl Peroxide such as Retin-A-Micro. Proactive didn’t work for me. Don’t wash your face/hair with any products that are mositurepacked, or that openly say it contains oils. [Moisture-packed products contain oils] Also, don’t clog your pores with makeup, use Mineral makeup such as Bare Essentials because it’s very light, as well as oil free. Oh, and wash your face completely every morning/night.
use glycolic skin tonner
