I'm not sure if this belongs here but I have had a break out of small bumps under my nose, a little above my lip. The only way to see the bumps is if I move my top lip down. I'm not sexually active so I'm not sure what has caused it. What can I put on the bumps to make them go away?

Clean and Clear has something called Persa-Gel 10 that you can use. Dab it on the where you have the bumps and it should dry it out. (You can use a cheaper Rite Aid or other type of drug store brands they're all the same and cost a lot less). After that put something that contains hydrocortisone. There's this brand you can get which is Cortizone 10. It'll reduce the swelling of the bumps, and the redness.
My facialist was the one who told me about this, and it totally works. So you won't have to spend so much money on "on the spot acne treatments".

Always make sure to wash your hands because you could be putting bacteria on your face causeing the bumps. Clean your face when you wake up as well. Oh and drink lots of water; i dont remember why but thats suppose to help too lol. [ pouncebaby9's advice column | Ask pouncebaby9 A Question ]
