Zits.


Question Posted Tuesday August 29 2006, 11:21 pm

I searched keywords for zit remedies, and it gave me some good ideas (so sorry for spamming). But I'm fifteen, and I've never really had that many zits. I mean, I've had occassional ones, but i have two big ones on my chin, and one coming in between my eyebrows, and I start school on Thursday (yeah, I'm lame. So?) and I want them (or at least the bigger ones) to go awayyy. I know they can't go away completely, but I at least when the redness to go away. I've read about ice and such, I tried toothpaste on it, and stuff. I'm probably irratating it. But what about the redness? Helppp. Thank you.

Additional info, added Tuesday August 29 2006, 11:23 pm:
Also, I tried putting some on-the-spot acne treatment by Neutrogena on the bigger zits, but it stung and itched, and made me feel as if I was allergic to it. Is that what it's SUPPOSED to do, or is it going to make it worse if it's making me itch and sting like that?.

Hey!
I have the same problem with zits.. I get a couple big ones.. and it's gross.. so I know how you feel...
A simple and VERY cheap method is to use Lemon Juice.. now I know that sounds odd- and yes it is.. but it honestly works.. and very quickly at that...
Now.. to apply the Lemon Juice.. just get a cotton swab and dab some of the juice onto it.. then apply (in a circular motion) to the infected area(s) [in othr words.. the place where the zits are]
Don't touch your zits while the juice is on.. because it will stop the chemicals from working.. and your zits will still be there..
Also- even if you don't have any lemon juice on your face.. try not to touch zits or your face, because your fingers have oils that irritate the skin and creat new zits..

Hope I helped!

hey! im new to this site but i totally feel ya myself having horrible acne and ive tried every acne medication in the book and i kno having zits during high school is horrible! well you seem to get only the occasional big ones and my guess is your skin is sensitive since you had a itchy reactcion to the one the spot treatment wich main ingredient is saylicic acid sooo i would suggest something more herbal like tea tree oil....which you can buy at trader joes and other herbal food stores it helps reduce redness while cleaning and healing the pimple but watev you do dont pop! because you dont want a fat purple mark on your face for your first day! and in the mean time use a concelar to hide the blemishes use one with some medication in it ...u can buy that at drugstore...or mineral makeup is great and dosent clog pores....since your skin is sensitive dont be too harsh because when you dry out ur skin too much it actually creates more acne because it dries out all the seabum and natural oils ur skin needs and it it tells your body to make more of these oils which we dont want ....rmeber to always mosturize no matter what use a oil free one......ok well i hope my advice has some impact i hope your skin gets better and im sure youll look hot for the first day of school!
