okay so since september ive had little red bumps on my forehead and their red.My first thought was acne but i never had acne really before only like a few blemishes here and there,but these are small and very tiny they itch sometimes too. I tohught maybe i was allergic to something so i stoped using this cover up on my face and it helped a bit but their still there.I work at a place where there's balloons so i thought maybe the powder in the balloons but i didn't work for about 2 weeks once and well they were still there.I always had very clear skin so im wondering what the problem is. I tried my brothers acne cream differin i think it's called for about a month and yup,no change! ugh im getting so impatient anymore, i dont know what's on my forehead! lol does anyone have any idea what it is? and the treatment to get rid of it might be?
kristamikele answered Thursday January 8 2009, 11:34 pm: Two things. 1. the bumps on your forehead could have something to do with your hair product. Feel around on your scalp to see if there are bumps there. 2. It could be because of the weather. Cold weather brings about chapped, dry skin.
It could be stress related, too. Did you go through a change or a stressfull time in September?
As far as getting rid of it, you should stay away from acne treatments because it sounds more like zits than acne. If it is from dry or chapped skin the acne treatment will only make it worse.
I don't know if you are on the birth control pill, but a lot of times it can really even out your skin. you might want to try tanning, or even the spray on kind to see if it masks the breakout. [ kristamikele's advice column | Ask kristamikele A Question ]
