Someone said vix rub helps clean out pores and zits? does it?

just wondering, cuz my friend said it didSomeone said vix rub helps clean out pores and zits? does it?
I have never head that one but I have just written a new post about Zits, Acne %26amp; Blackheads that may help you - http://basicbeautytipsatblogspot.blogspo鈥?/a>

How do I get rid of this zit in two days?

I have a big zit on the side of my nose. It's been there for a while. I popped it some time ago, but it left a large red bump there with no white tip or anything. It doesn't seem to be going away, and school starts in two days. I've tried vanishing cream and even a hot compress a couple times, and it didn't work. So how do I get rid of this stupid thing FAST?How do I get rid of this zit in two days?
Mix equal parts toothpaste and aspirin together, crush it up until it's pasty.


Apply with a q-tip to the area, the aspirin gets rid of redness and the toothpaste dries it out. Leave it overnight and wash it off in the morning with a wet cloth.


I always use toothpaste and it works great for me.





Don't wear makeup for the next few days in that area, lot it breathe.





If it's still there, apply a hot tea bag to it every few hours, and an ice pack on it in between. This has worked for me in the past.How do I get rid of this zit in two days?
Put a little bit of astringent on the zit, then before you go to bed, apply a tiny dollop of toothpaste on it and leave it on overnight. Wash off with warm water in the morning. It really works (At least for me!)!

  • How can i get rid of a zit?

    It is a huge zit about 2-3 inches from my left eye. I need it gone before spring break is over so about a week. This is the worst one so far.





    Does rubbing alcohol help?How can i get rid of a zit?
    Don't pop it, because it's going to leave red marks on your face, and I wouldn't do that! Rubbing alcohol does help, but if you are really worried that it will not be gone when you want it, put some foundation!!


    Zits are caused by stress, so always wash your face with water. Do it at least twice a day, when you get up in the morning, and before you go to sleep!


    It will keep your skin healthy and zit- free!!


    I always do it and I haven't had zits in a while!


    Good Luck!!How can i get rid of a zit?
    Pop it but dont use your fingernails. after you pop it you should apply alcohol to it .
    Many can be popped and some you need to push on the skin with 2 fingers where the swelling starts moving toward the head and push harder as you get close to the head until the pus comes out...all of it......Then use alcohol or a cleanse cloth with astringent.
    Put toothpaste on it. Don't forget to wash it off before you leave the house. Weird but it works. : )
    shot of cortisone by your doc.
    Pop It
    get a hot wet rag and put in right over the zit until the top turns white and then pop it.
    witch hazel
    i wouldnt' pop your zits, it leaves red blotchy stuff on your face, wash your face every morning and night with mild cleansers and use a clay mask for spot treatment once and a while, really works!

    HELP! I just popped a bad zit and now I am super red! How can I get the redness out immediately?

    I know, I know..I should never pop a zit, but this one was so big and irritating I had to get rid of it. I'm supposed to go out with friends in a few hours and HAVE to get this redness out! What can I do?HELP! I just popped a bad zit and now I am super red! How can I get the redness out immediately?
    Same issue here...only it hasnt gotten to the popable point yet...sucks dont it?HELP! I just popped a bad zit and now I am super red! How can I get the redness out immediately?
    Put makeup over it, that's pretty much all you can do. Nothing is going to make it go away right away. It will take time to heal.
    rub on some benzoyl peroxide because that DECREASES the redness.


    then you can put some mineral concealer or cover up on it . !
    Try putting some eye drops on it. I know it's meant for your eyes but either way it reduces the redness.
    I recommend using herbal cream like Zenmed Scar and Hyperpigmentation Treatment:

    You can expect great results quickly and easily :-)

    How can i prevent a whitehead/zit from surfacing?

    Above my lip, there is an area that is red and slightly bumpy. I KNOW a zit is just waaaiiting to sprout. How can I stop it dead in it's tracks?





    *I have tried salicylic acid, toothpaste and rubbing alcohol in the past. (Did not work)How can i prevent a whitehead/zit from surfacing?
    1. you can use anti inflammatory to suspend the flaring... clobetasol cream, betametasone... apply 2x a day..


    2. stop touching it! you will cause more inflammation when you start touching it...


    3.benzoyls, salicylic, and glycolic soaps are good whitehead controlling formulations... choose which one based on skin sensitivity...





    4. whiteheads are due to clogged sweat and oil pores.. get rid of your creams! start using solutions and/or gels


    5. exfoliate regularly...that helps unclog the pores...but not if your skin is red!


    6. use oil blotters instead of repowdering your face... that way, less clogging...


    7. and use water based makeup...


    8. get a good toner... alcohol based if oily, water based if skin is sensitive...





    9. drink lots of water! and sweat it out....How can i prevent a whitehead/zit from surfacing?
    Drink lots of water...will keep your pores from clogging. Also, use oil blotting papers to remove the excess oils from your face. Get a neutral soap that will reduce the excess oils on your skin.





    You should see some immediate relief within 24-48 hours.





    I have tried various pimple reduction techniques before settling on Thermaclear. For a detailed review, visit www.thermaclearreviews.com
    well I know that if you get a cold sore coming up you can put PERFUME on it and it will kill the cold sore right away, ( i guess the alcohol does the trick but the perfume smells nice) maybe an antibiotic cream like Polysporin might help you situation

    What happens if you leave a zit untreated?

    Well I was wondering what would happen if you leave a zit untreated, like if you don't touch it or anything but you wash ur face about 3 times a day will it be bad or good.





    p.s if you let it pop by itself will it more likely cause more zit around that area then if you popped it?What happens if you leave a zit untreated?
    you arent supposed to touch it. it will go away by itself in a week or twoWhat happens if you leave a zit untreated?
    As a long time acne sufferer I can say that I have never left a zit untreated. I have used proactive and oxy pads and stridex with no results. But usually I just pop mine, if you leave it untreated it may go back into your skin and can cause damage to the bloodstream.
    no to the p.s part and it will go away do not wash so much cut down to 2 times

    How do I get rid of a fat lip caused by a zit?

    Ok, so I have a zit above my lip and it caused me to have a fat lip on my left side upper lip, I need it to go away because I have to work in a few hours, I put drawing sav on the zit because it's a blind zit so maybe if I pop it the swelling will go down? Any suggestions would really really help!How do I get rid of a fat lip caused by a zit?
    You can try to bring the zit to a head by putting a hot washcloth on it and then popping it. However, this can lead to infection and more swelling. The best thing to do is to put an ice pack on area to reduce swelling. Put some clearasil or something to make zit go away faster. If you do decide to pop it, make sure to fully disinfect skin and hands before so it doesn't get even worse.How do I get rid of a fat lip caused by a zit?
    I usually like using Neosporin....Its not really meant for pimples but I find that the anti-biotic heals them over night...Well at least for me. I've also heard that if you put a little dab of toothpaste on your pimple, it'll help too...I've never tried it tho...
    Try Clearasil if its a zit!
    popping it will make it worse. I hate to tell you this but there is not much you can really do.... ur going to have 2 wait until it goes down on its own. Have you tried putting zit cream or toothpaste to try and dry it out. How bout covering it with a little concealer.


    Trust me, popping a zit by your mouth will most likely leave a mark that will stay for weeks!


    Just deal wth it- everybody gets them once in awhile.


    Hope you have a ncie day at work!

    Did you know that toothpaste can cure zits?!?

    I found out that when you put toothpaste on your zits they go away and stop others from forming.Did you know that toothpaste can cure zits?!?
    who knows....for all we know sex can cure zitsDid you know that toothpaste can cure zits?!?
    that is interesting. but is toothpaste safe to use for zits? i would check what the ingredients are and if they can cause any bad side effects. Report Abuse

    no
    Using toothpaste in a gel form for regular brushing can actually cause some people to break out . My dermatologist recommended sticking to white paste for brushing and it helped clear up my jaw line tremendously. If I ever use gel for a week or more, it starts all up again.
    sometimes but you need something with benzoyl peroxide is the key to antibacterial agent to fight acne, in stonger 6% formula for fast action.
    no i think tis a mith
    it doesn't, as a matter of fact its bad for skin
    Yes. A skin specialist I know said that. It has to be regular white toothpaste, tho, not gel or anything colored. He also said to stay away from dark soda pop, I don't know why.
    It helps in a pinch, but you should not be using it for long term. It has to be the white paste (gel apparently does not work), but only short term quick fixes because it is so drying.
    In my experience I have used this ';method'; with great results. Although bear in mind that it has to be plain ol' white toothPASTE. Not gel, etc. Some people say that it doesn't work or it can't work. I suppose like anything you'd have to try it and see if it works for you personally. There's also another product from Origins which works quite well called ';Spot Remover';. Pretty much anything containing salcylic acid will dry the little sucker out.
    it does not cure acne all it does is dry out the zit and make it look even more bad that's a myth don't be fooled.
    yes
    its likely the level of menthol in the toothpaste...
    yea it dies it out
    didn't know that.
    really, thats wierd.
    sure it does.... NOT... don't be fooled...
    I also heard that but never tried it.
    Lol! I wouldn't be a teenager again for all the tea in China.
    yeah sometimes but not all people for me it just makes it worse i have sensitive skin :/
    I saw that someplace here and i tried it last week. It works!! But am not sure its a good idea to use it always though.
    never heard of this, but thx. i will check into it.
    I actually tried this as a teenager and it worked for me. It wasn't an instant thing but it certainly dried up that sucker and it went away quicker that usual!
    yes and it also cleans jewelry really nice
    wow i didnt know
    ?????????????????????????
    my brother swears that fresh lemon juice works....
    no, it just dries the zit up and causes future zits
    Yes, it helps dry them up quickly.
    not on sensitive skin...





    don't use whitening toothpaste.. because whitening toothpaste has stronger bleach than the other kinds..
    I do this and yes it does work. Remember though, before resorting to toothpaste follow a acne regime for your face, if you run out of acne creme you can use toothpaste but I wouldn't recommend it as your daily acne regime.
    That is true...the toothpaste dries out your skin and gets rid of the zit, however, unless you are putting toothpaste all over your face, it will not prevent zits from forming. Cleaning your face everyday or even twice a day pending on how oily your skin is, will keep the zits away. I also recommend a really good face cleaner. Proactive really does work, also dermalogica if you are looking for something that really works.

  • Everyone has zits, how do you deal with them?

    im 14 and i have some zits on my forhead. i wash my face every night and i shower every morning so its not from being dirty its just part of being a teen. at first i was mad but now i just accepted it and im looking for ways to try to control them. i dont have tons just like 4 and they kind of hurt when i touch them. any good creams or face washes or anything?Everyone has zits, how do you deal with them?
    Well first of all- DONT touch them. Touching your face all the time just spreads bacteria and oils. And I would recomend Neutrogena Acne Washes. They work pretty good on my skin. And before you use any cleanser, put a warm cloth on your face to open your pores, then wash it with the cleanser- this will result in a better deep down clean. Also, after cleansing use a toner (Clean and Clear toner is really good). This controls redness and helps to eliminate zits as well. Good luck!Everyone has zits, how do you deal with them?
    I use a lot of Clean and Clear washes and lotions. It's not too expensive, and it's effective. Go to a dermatologist though if it gets worse or if your mom or father had bad skin problems when they were your age. (I'm 14 too) Your more prone to get acne if they had it kinda bad. Going to a dermatologist will work though. Acne is more of an infection almost. Dermatologists have tons of effective pills, washes, and lotions they'll clear your acne if you keep using them.
    i use nutrogena cream clenser (mornign and night)


    and olay mosturizer





    (nutrogena is a great brand id it has many good products!)
    dude i've known you since kindergarden and your face is angel clean. your like the 3rd hottest guy in are school so shut up and just keep looking beautiful inside and out!
    you could try using Clearasil but i may warn u i'm 14 and have zits ='[ and Clearasil doesn't work for me! its so annoying!
    no ***** way!!!!!!!!


    i didnt know every1 had zits!!!!!!!
    just wash your face with warm water and soap!but u could use clean n' clear like i do!it works!
    I am a Registered Nurse and I specialize in skin care and teen acne.





    Your question is very broad and you need to get professional advice. I will explain why it's a broad question!





    Your age plays a role! How old are you?





    If you are a teenager ( which I assume that you are) your hormones play a definite role in your breakouts.





    Plus, if you are a male at 14 your body releases excess testostorone which promotes body growth but at the same time it also stimulates your oil glands to over work and thus you get breakouts.





    The most important thing is that you need products that are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every age group has different products appropriate for them. If you are young than you need milder products as to not dry out your beautiful young skin.





    The problem with commercial skin products is that they are manufactured for MASSES OF PEOPLE and are not specifically made for different peoples' needs.





    Your skin type is different than mine and your age differs from mine so how is it logical that we both use the same skin product for breakouts. We need different strengths of cleansers and toners. Do you kind of understand what I am getting at?





    Here is my STRONG SUGGESTION for you. I refer all my students and patients to this website: www.aboutyourskincare.com





    You need to consult with professionals and on this website YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS FOR FREE AND A SKIN EXPERT/PHYSICIAN WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. It would be a shame if you dont take advantage of this free service.





    Lastly, they have incredible products for breakouts and they make them specifically for every kind of skin type. That means that if your breakouts are more severe than mine, than while we both will buy the same product yours will have stronger ingredients than mine will.





    They have a mild glycolic acid cleanser that's great for your type of skin and also a DRYING LOTION ( I have 3 bottles) that you put directly on your breakouts and the next day it's gone. It's truely magic in a bottle.





    A basic guideline for properly taking care of your skin is this ( now if you're a young girl you will need fewer products than this):





    Night time:





    1. Exfoliate the skin


    2. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser


    3. Mild Glycolic Acid Toner ( cleans off the excess debris and balances the PH level of the skin).


    4. Drying Lotion used only on breakouts


    5. Moisturizer





    Morning:





    1. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser


    2. Moisturizing cream





    The above is a standard you may need to only use one or two products. Viisit the website I suggested and click on the ASK FOR FREE section send them an email and you will get free expert skin care advice.





    I suggest you check out the website with one of your parents.





    Good Luck to you,

    How to get rid of a zit overnight?

    I have like 3 zits on my head.


    And i have to get some photos taken tomarrow.


    Is there a way to get rid of them overnight?


    Or atleast reduce the size and color.How to get rid of a zit overnight?
    Stress is probably what caused them in the first place so try to relax. Soak your face with a hot washcloth a few times today, use any acne stuff you have, maybe you can even go to bed with toothpaste on your zits like I've heard works. There are a ton of methods so pick a few and hope they work.How to get rid of a zit overnight?
    Overnight..Hmmm. Try Benzoyl Peroxide. It reduces swelling.


    If you are in less of a pinch this method I use makes my pimples leave no or a very light scar; use a hot cloth and apply it to your pimple with slight pressure. If you have anything in the pimple, it wil come to the top and you can then wipe it off. It may bleed. After you have gotton the bacteria out, cleanse with warm water or astringent/ Then apply and cover with a band-aid overnight.. Apply the Polysporin again the next night and countinue for 3 nights.. Varies.





    No more scarring. :) %26lt;3

    It worked really well for meHow can I get rid of zit outbreaks quickly and easily?
    What the skin needs is a product that clears pores and kills bacteria, thus preventing hair follicles from clogging and turning into acne. This is what you should be looking for if you want to get rid of those ugly acne.





    Before trying any treatment, I suggest you read this informational source that listed the most effective acne treatments available:





    http://www.17acnetreatments.com





    P.S. I also know someone who used to suffer from severe acne for 14 YEARS and finally got rid of it completely. She's sharing her story at her site:





    http://20six.co.uk/my-acne-solution





    Maybe you could learn from her inspirational story


    .
    My doctor prescribed me amoxicillin, which is an antibiotic. I take it twice daily by mouth for acne. Clears up decently fast. Of course, there are also other antibiotics too, along with prescription creams and micro-jels like Retin-A and Bezaclin. I hope I helped :)
    Have you tried differin cream? It great!





    Also sometimes you need to use a non-oil lotion because some creams dry out skin.
    Proactiv. Do it.

    What are these white puss filled zit things on head and face?

    I get these white puss filled sit like bumps on my face and back of neck. Sometimes on my arms and chest. It sometimes accompanies greasy or most skin. These are not your common acne or zits. they are painful and produce a white viscous liquid when popped. they are usually about the size of a pin head.What are these white puss filled zit things on head and face?
    They could be whiteheads or even pustules here is the definition :Pustules: A pustule is similar to a whitehead, but is inflamed, and appears as a red circle with a white or yellow center. Pustules are your garden variety zit. Hope that helps. You might want to re consider the popping, pop it wrong and scars occur, always wash your hands before popping as well. Hope that helpsWhat are these white puss filled zit things on head and face?
    they are called white heads..like black heads they are the result of a build up of oil and dirt......wash your face and neck more often especially in the summer...use medicine on them..
    They're probably whiteheads or infected pimples, they will hurt a lot if you try to squeeze them before they're ready. The best thing to do is just to keep your face and hands clean and keep your hands away from your face, and try some topical OTC acne treatment. They will open on their own, it's gross, I know, but it just takes time for your skin to clear. Check with a dermatologist, there may be prescription meds you can take.





    Best wishes.

    How do I keep my face zit free?

    Im in the stage where I get pimples. They are coming out, but how do I still prevent them from coming on my face? Do I use a kind of medicine or do I keep away from sunlight? What good facial cream could open my pores and get all the unwanted blemishes out? HELP ME!How do I keep my face zit free?
    a lot of it has to do with what you eat. try to cut out sugary and greasy foods down if not out completely if you can.





    my acne never cleared up before i went to the dermatologist. It may seem out of the way but if you want your acne to go away you have to put in the effort. For me, they prescribed two things to actually put on my face, one morning, one night. along with that i also took pills called cephalexin. However, other people i know that had acne took different kinds of stuff. It took a little while to trial and error to figure out which system was working best for me, and thats something a derm can and really needs to (in my opinion) assist you with. they know whats best, its their job!How do I keep my face zit free?
    Try St.lves it is amazing. What I do to keep my skin clean and beutiful is splah my face with really hot water then pat it off a little bit so it is just damp then rub on the St.lves face wash. Leave it on for 30 seconds and wash it off and pat it till it is totally dry. Hope it works it always does for me
    None of the above my dear Watson. It is all elementary. Check your DIET and fashion it so that toxins DO NOT enter your body.





    When the body can not rid itself of toxins that we gather through our BAD eating habits, it sends the toxins UP UP through the skin causing pimples and zits.





    Have LESS energy drinks, sweets, processed foods from Mickey D's and Wendy's.





    Have MORE water, celery, carrots, bell peppers and home cooked meals with little salt, etc.
    I have recently bought a few products from avon from their Clearskin line. The toner works magic! I also use the cleanser... but the toner is what works magic. It comes in a huge bottle for just $5 and is soooo worth every penny because it works sooo good. You will notice a difference in a few days... maybe even in just one! Good luck!

    How come when I pluck my eyebrows, theres a black speck I have to squeeze out like a zit?

    Also, some of the black specks, when squeezed, push out the start of a new hair, which I also have to pluck! The dark zit like things make it look like I still have unplucked brow hairs and I am tired of plucking everyday. What are they and what causes them? Thanks in advance.How come when I pluck my eyebrows, theres a black speck I have to squeeze out like a zit?
    blackheads probably. Blackheads are those annoying little blackish or yellowish bumps embedded into the pores of our skin. Blackheads usually develop if your skin produces too much oil. With the start of puberty, hormones in the body become upregulated with the accumulation of the hormone by-product Dihydrotestosterone or DHT. You can extract blackheads yourself if there is no infection on and around it. Just make sure you use sterile materials and do so in a clean environment. You can begin by steaming your skin for a while over a bowl of hot water to loosen the pores and make the extraction process less painful. Be careful not to scald yourself.How come when I pluck my eyebrows, theres a black speck I have to squeeze out like a zit?
    I'm pretty sure that the black speck is hair that's still in the follicle, if you get your eyebrows waxed then you shouldn't have that problem and won't have to pluck your eyebrows everyday.

    less is better.





    Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a ';very bad complexion';. She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!





    Cheryl writes, ';My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up.';





    Anne writes, ';I have had acne for years, I started using apple cider vinegar on my face a few months ago, and have seen major improvements. I don't have nearly as many blemishes and the ones that do pop up every now and then are small.

    Apple Cider Vinegar and Baking Soda


    1/26/2006: KLC from Stratford, CT writes, ';I've actually been using combination of baking soda and Apple Cider Vinegar to clean my face and my results have been very successful. Here is what I do daily:





    Morning: I use a deep cleansing face wash. Lather and let sit for 1 min, then rinse with ACV.





    Night: I add baking soda to the deep cleanser (excellent make-up remover!), lather and let sit for 1 min. Then rinse with ACV. I get a quick foaming reaction that gives a deeper pore cleansing!





    Apple Cider Vinegar and Aspirin Toner





    Anonymous writes, ';Instead of buying expensive facial products, I mix up my own ';toner'; using 1/2 water, 1/2 vinegar and a few aspirins. The acids in the vinegar force your old skin cells to flake off, much like the store-bought ';alpha hydroxy'; products. The aspirin is my own anti-acne solution. A lot of acne products use salicylic acid, which is basically aspirin with a few small chemical differences. The aspirin won't dissolve completely, but it doesn't seem to matter. This works especially well against those big, deep acne spots which older people often get. I've been using this twice a day on my face for five years now and people are always amazed when I tell them my real age (44). One caution, though: Be sure to also use a face lotion with at least SPF 15 everyday--even in winter (Oil of Olay knock-offs are fairly cheap)--because the vinegar mixture will make your skin thinner (just like the expensive store-bought ones will) and more susceptible to sun damage. The SPF prevents age spots from forming, and that's worth the money in my book. ';

    3/18/2006: Lisa from West Plains, MO writes, ';I started drinking acv two times a day, morning and before bed. My routine goes like this: 2 little paper cups, one with a little hydrogen peroxide and the other a little acv. I take a cotton ball and soak it with the peroxide and I then use it all over my face (like astringent), careful to avoid my eyebrows. Then I wet a q-tip with the acv and dab any pimples. It is very effective with whiteheads. I hate to throw out the acv so I drink what's left. Drink in small amounts, one big swig will leave you feeling like your gonna get sick. I know from experience. When I started this routine I broke out a lot, I think this was because it was getting all the icky bacteria and toxins out of my body. It took a couple weeks but I had faith and kept up the routine. I also take two tbs. of blackstrap molasses morning and night. I am able to go from a laying down position to sitting up on my own. I am disabled and pretty much bedridden. Is this a miracle?

    ';When the blood is deficient in some minerals or biochemic salt, ill-health is the outcome e.g. boils break out, suppurating blisters become apparent, pimples appear on the face etc. It has been found however, that cider vinegar helps with the cleansing as well as the clotting of the blood. Oxidation of the blood is very important and cider vinegar is again an effective treatment for this. Besides introducing the important minerals into the blood stream, as mentioned above, cider vinegar also helps in the clotting of blood. This is of tremendous help to those people who are commonly termed 'bleeders', as they live their lives in fear of cutting themselves due to the bloods inability to clot, and it will also enhance the healing process.';How do I get rid of the redness in my zit?
    Put on anti bacterial cream twice a day, I'm sure you have one at home. There is a break in your skin and it is prone to infection. Keep the area clean at all times. In a day or two, the redness will clear. Use Benzoyl Peroxide on ';new'; zits so they don't progress to big, infected ones.
    Put water on a rag and put in the microwave for 1min. Then put in ont the scabbed zit for like 30 seconds. when done with that put a ice cube on it.








    Hope That Helps
    Antibiotic cream or wet some baking soda and dab it on .
    make a paste of baking soda and water and dab it on an leave it and do this often.....this also work really well for ingrown hairs too. also hot compresses alternating with cold ones will help too....too bad you cant go to the store because I would say as a first choice to buy zinc oxide cream which is diaper rash cream like in desitin
    You're losing the fight by trying too hard. Leave it be and just apply an antibacterial cream to it and keep it moist and make sure to change the bandaid every couple of hours and dab on a bit of hydrogen peroxide to get any infection out, wash with soap and quickly rinse it off, then apply antiboitic ointment and cover it back up.


    The soap will work as a drying agent and the ointment will heal it. I've done this and it helps. I had 10 years of severe acne and have used all that is out there. Soap will do just fine. For my occasional breakouts that I now get hardly ever, I use acne free terminator gel and that is the best out there yet.
    just stop touching it or putting anything on it. when you ';activate'; the skin around it the pus will go on adding up. the redness might actually be pus. let it dry on its own and don't put any cream or meds that can speed up its healing process because the healing won't be natural, and though the scab dries up faster, the skin ends up dark.

    How do I get rid of the redness in this zit?

    I popped it 2 days ago while in the shower. I shouldn't have popped it. I put a white crest toothpaste on it at night, and it got all red and I think scabbed. I tried using Visine eye drops on it, but it didn't work. I have this acne wash, a neutrogena one, and that didn't work. I applied ice to it and that didn't work. Last night, I made a paste from baking soda and water, and left it on all night, and it is still the same, just more scabbed. Please, do you have any ideas of what I should do? I have school in 2 days, and I can't go out and buy anything because my mom won't be home from her trip and I'm not old enough to drive yet.How do I get rid of the redness in this zit?
    why did you put toothpaste on it?visine is for your eyes toothpaste is for your teeth you just irritated it more just leave it alone the more you pick at it the worse it will get most teens get them dont worry about it theres worse things in lifeHow do I get rid of the redness in this zit?
    Just start to put warm compresses on it with a clean wash cloth heat in micro. repeat.


    Then add peroxide to clean it out and acne cream.





    Do not use visene


    do not use toothpaste.





    Clean your face with pure soap before bed and peroxide and then apply acne cream -





    Don't touch it - and it should be healed tomorrow.
    best thing is to leave it alone...
    I think you might have irritated your skin more by adding all these creams and stuff to the zit.





    I would avoid putting anything else on it. Aloe vera gel is very soothing, if you have any, might take some of the redness out. Really, two days should let it heal on its own... leave it alone!
    As a general rule of thumb redness indicates inflamation %26amp; infection. Do not use any products on your wound unless they are made specifically for treating that particular ailment. Start by thoroughly cleaning the affected area with an anti-bacterial soap like Dial. Treat the affected area with neo-sporin or poly-sporin. Clean sores and apply the ointment twice a day. After 3 days clean twice but apply neo-sporin or poly-sporin only 1 time per day. This will allow sores to dry. Healing process will take approximately 2 weeks.

    What is the little thing that comes out of a zit?

    When you pop a zit all the way you get not only goo (sorry gross I know) but you sometimes get a little waxy thing shaped like a seed. What precisely is that. I know I know dirt and oil can collect in your pores, but is that what this is made of?





    Im just wondering if it has anything to do with all the junk people eat, or parasites people have and do not know about. All theories and explinations welcome.What is the little thing that comes out of a zit?
    When I was studying beauty therapy last year we loved this question and now that I am working and doing extractions - gross I know but it is so great to get these little suckers out under sterile conditions.


    It is a collection of dead skin cells, sebum and bacteria that is caught in the pore.


    Sometimes they are quite hard and that is usually because they have been there a little bit longer than the ones you squeeze and are softer. (Although you shouldn't squeeze them)


    The correct term for them is comedone.


    No parsites have nothing to do with them, all to do with your genetic make-up, how you cleanse your skin and a good diet. If you eat junk food 24/7 then it will show on your face.What is the little thing that comes out of a zit?
    It's called a comedo, and it's made up of sloughed skin cells and skin oil.
    Thats puss, its pretty bad to squeeze it out because you might scar your skin leaving behind a ';hole'; on your face
    um a little more details please? its probably acne puss or something.
    it's called puss it comes from the pipmle or zit when you squeeze it.
    Sebum the ';gack'; your skin produces,that causes the little seed like thing your body produces when you pop a zit.Sometimes it can be waxy rather than pus like material.Your pores becomes clogged and these little pus balls form,and then we squeeze them..It's all a daily collection of dirt ,oil %26amp;dead skin cells...........
    I love getting those out. So disgustingly gratifying. I almost want to hold it up to the light and say, ';I gotcha now, you little ba***rd!'; :-)





    Pimples are caused by bacterial infections in your pores. That little pimple pebble is the pus (a result of white blood cells attacking the infection) that has dried up under your dermis. Sweet...
    its not anything about the food you eat, and i doubt a parasite would put stuff in your zits, its probable just more puss that has hardened. its probably the orginal thing in your pore that made it swell and puss into a zit

    Who likes popping other people's zits? I know its disgusting but I get much satisfaction executing the critter

    ... I also don't mean going up to a complete random on the street... That would just a bit wrong ;)Who likes popping other people's zits? I know its disgusting but I get much satisfaction executing the critter
    LMAO!! I do it to my Bf, then I give him a facial! How funny. I am always squishing him, or picking at something on him. Hey you can't leave a zit there, it looks nasty!! Pop that sucker!Who likes popping other people's zits? I know its disgusting but I get much satisfaction executing the critter
    i like popping my husband's zits.he thinks I am crazy.
    I use to do it for my ex when we were married but only ones he couldn't reach.When I see people with a big bunch of black heads


    I almost want to get rid of them...eeewww...but there are no reason why they can't get rid of them on their own.
    I know! It's gross, but I really ENJOY doing it to my husband...he gets recurring ones, so I know where to look. (ick) but yea! :)
    that is just weird...like wtf is up with that...
    that is the most disturbing thing i have ever heard in my life.
    i know my mom always popped mine when i was younger

    I am 25 and still get zits?

    i wash my face and take showers almost every day.





    I get big zits on my back and my neck and behind my ears?





    they have 3 or 4 head in one zit. some times there big as a dime.





    why do i get zits like this? any help I am 25 and still get zits?
    I would see a dermatologist. When you mentioned how big the pimples are that frightened me.





    Most acne is internal. It's not because you are dirty or anything surface although with the sweating your pores may be getting extra clogged.





    See a dermatologist and maybe they can prescribe you an oral medication to clear up the problem quicker! Good luck!I am 25 and still get zits?
    It's rough getting break-outs when you're not a teenager anymore. Sometimes when I'm under a lot of stress, I get hard red pimples on my face and neck. I get rid of them by keeping a bottle of tea tree oil handy. Put a little bit on a cotton swab and dab the areas where the pimples are. I would recommend diluting it with a few drops of almond oil, or apricot kernel oil. Tea tree oil has a very medicinal smell, but once it dries it's not noticeable. You can get it at most health food stores or specialty grocery stores, and probably some pharmacies.
    It is possibly to do with the way you eat or drink. Too much sugar and bad carbs will give you zits if you are prone to them anyway. A good diet of fresh, veggie, fruit, fish and chicken, whole grains, no refined carbs and definitely no sugar and that included sodas (they are deadly-13 teaspoon of sugar in one regular soda) and no beer or a very limited quantity. Eat wholewheat bread and no white bread. It might take six weeks to notice the difference but you should definitely see an improvement.
    Unfortunately for some people acne just doesn't go away with the end of puberty. I'm 22, and a few years ago finally saw a dermatologist. Now I'm on a couple topical meds, and oral antibiotics, and my skin is so much better. I still get the occasional flare-up but nothing like before. You should see a derm, they are professionals and understand how to deal with adult acne.
    It's from sweating.


    Go to a dermatologist and they will recommend what they think will work for you.

  • How long does it take proactive to make your face zit free?

    I have recently bought proactive and only had it for four days it is working a little, so is there any people with expirience that can tell me if it works and how long it takes?How long does it take proactive to make your face zit free?
    I have used it for 2 months now and my face is about 80% clear. It is more about routine then anything cause I missed one day and noticed a quick breakout.How long does it take proactive to make your face zit free?
    For the peeling %26amp; flaking, use the clenser %26amp; toner twice a day. Only use the mask as a spot treatment %26amp; leave it on over night. Use the lotion at night only. Use the mosturizer in the morning instead of the lotion. If you are extra dry in areas, use mosturizer in that area. Report Abuse

    I would notice it around my hair line on my face or my eyebrows. If you dont have their mosturizer, use any water based product so that it wont make you oily %26amp; defeat the purpose but I do like theirs. Report Abuse

    If you don't get much relief soon, you need to see a dermatologist. I went to a dermatologist after all else failed. It was the best decision my mom could make.
    My skin was clear in a little over a week.
    If that doesn't work for you, try this site, called ';Acne Free In 3 Days'; - http://kkf2006.acnefree.hop.clickbank.net/





    There is a 60 day money back gaurantee. I know there's a lot of hype about Proactive, but there are more effective and natural ways of going about solving these issues.
    IT DEEPENED ON HOW BAD YOUR FACE IS IT GOING TO BRING THEM OUT BEFORE IT TAKES THEM AWAY AND WHEN THEY ARE GONE YOU CANT STOP USING IT OR THEY WILL COME BACK YOUR FACE GROWS TO NEED IT ALL THE TIME THEY DON'T TELL YOU THAT AND IT CAN GET WORSTED WHEN YOU STOP USING IT
    DONT use it! for me it was MUCH easier to use clean and clear persa gel!!!! it was MUCH cheaper and easier to use! with clean and clear, my skin problems were gone within two days completely!!





    hoped that helped! good luck!
    month
    I guess it would depend on your zit situation... how bad it is, etc. Mines was cleared up in a week. Proactiv is the shiznick!
    it is bad for your skin because your skin gets dry and starts to peel....no results....try tea tree oil or clean and clear
    I used it for 3 months and my face didn't clear up the way I wanted it to.....So I cancelled it.

    How to make a zit go away over night?

    Someone told me toothpaste (the pasty kind) will help the redness go away.How to make a zit go away over night?
    I've been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it's at.





    I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.





    I'm 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.





    Literally the best acne face wash I've ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It's unique cause of it's herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem.com at the time which was helpful.





    You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn't work it will still save you butt on the return policy.





    Well good luck and best wishes.
    Well, there is one that I know of. I've done it a few times and it definitely helped. Just get some white toothpaste, not the gel kind, it has to be the white one. Dab a little bit onto your zit before you go to sleep. What it does is help to dry out the fluids in the zit, reducing it in size and making it less noticeable. Good luck. :]
    toothpaste but it on a bandaid then put it over the zit it should be gone by morning make sure its minty it also takes out the redness so does crushed asprin and water paste
    You actually don't have to worry about this.





    Why?





    Good news is they air-brush your senior photos... so you're acne free!

    What is a good kind of make up to help cover up zits ?

    my ance is not to bad but i have realy pale flackie olie skin please helpWhat is a good kind of make up to help cover up zits ?
    use a facial scrub like neutrogena Oil-free Acne wash daily scrub. it has microbeads that gently washes away dead skin and cleans deep to clear acne. for pimples that you have use a concealer that has salicylic acid in it like neutrogena SkinClearing oil free concealer.What is a good kind of make up to help cover up zits ?
    most foundation and cover up makes MORE pimples





    - don't do it, if your acne is ok and doesn't look too bad don't do it will make it so bad it wont be control able





    -if you must use a tea tree oil based cover up,


    the body shop has a really great cover up stick that actually helps prevent pimples.


    -but once your cover up isn't needed any more wash your face!



    first, wash your face with a very good soap that has salicylic acid in it.


    after you wash your face, use Clinique dramatically different facial moisturizer . it may seem a little expensive (i dont know if you consider it to be or not) but it works WONDERS. i have very dry skin, but after the day is done, its extremely oily. this moisturizes my skin but keeps the shine and oil under control.


    then use a green foundation as a base. not all over, but just on the red areas.


    after applying the green, use a regular skin-tone foundation. try CoverGirl trublend.


    if you want an airbrushed look, however, i suggest L'oreal bare naturelle mineral powder foundation.





    if you want a bronzed look, i also suggest using Clinique bronzer


    http://www.clinique.com/templates/produc鈥?/a>


    just brush it with a large powder brush (shown) to where the sun would naturally hit your face: bridge of your nose, forhead, Cupid's bow, and your cheekbones.


    just dont over-do it so you don't look orange.





    hope i helped [:
    I %26lt;3 Bare Minerals. Go to a Bare Escentuals store or Sephora if they're nearby %26amp; have them put it on you. If not, watch the infomercial. I have found that to be the BEST make-up for covering problem spots. And if you do get that make-up, use the compact with mineral veil in it for touch-ups in case you start to shine.
    Well usually for a pimple or zit that is red put a dab of green concealer on it then pat on some powder. For both these products I recommend Physician's Formula products. Use the Powder Finish Concealer in green and then put on some Physician's Formula Mineral Wear Face Powder (it works like a charm!)I have reviewed both of these products on my blog so you can go check it out! Hope I helped! :D

    What is the white pus in zits?

    infectionWhat is the white pus in zits?
    pus??What is the white pus in zits?
    u.
    mostly dead white blood cells come to fight the infection.
    Grease.
    During your teen years your body starts to do some funky things while it grows up, including producing more testosterone (a male hormone found in females as well as males, but in varying amounts), which tells your body to start producing more oil. As a result, the dead skin cells mix with the oil and clog your pores, causing zits.
    Theres a type of cell (can't remember the name) that goes around and essentially swallows bacteria and kills them off and that is the accumulation of those cells. Its part of your bodies defensive against infection.
    Dead white blood cells. White blood cells fight against infection.
    that stuff is semen
    The exact causes of acne are unknown, but it is believed that it can result from several factors, primarily, an increase in hormones called androgens, which both males and females have. Increases in androgens cause your oil glands to enlarge and produce more oil. This oil can also change into a thick white substance called sebum. An increased oil production clogs your pores with oil and sebum that can breakdown the cellular walls in your pores, which causes bacteria to grow and pimples to develop.





    Some researchers also believe that your chances of developing acne can be greatly influenced by genetics. The use of certain drugs containing androgens and lithium are known to cause acne. The use of greasy cosmetics can also lead to acne because they plug your cell follicles and promote bacterial growth.





    Overall it is an infection.

    How to get rid of your zits less den 2 weeks?

    Depends how quickly you can get in to see a dermatologist. What worked best for me that I highly recommend is: TRETINOIN GEL 0.025%, but you can only get it by prescription. When I used it for the first time I was amazed at how quickly it worked, I kid you not, I put it on all the affected areas %26amp; within days, the acne just kind of just flaked right off. Try to get an appt. to see a dermatologist as soon as possible.How to get rid of your zits less den 2 weeks?
    Drink plenty of water. Wash you face twice a day. Especially if it's been a hot day, and you've been sweating. Don't wash your face with anything other than your hands (unless it's meant specifically for the face) or you may end up making acne worse.


    If you get zits regularly you should know what skin care products will improve your skin, and which will make it worse.


    If you don't, consider seeing a dermatologist, or asking a pharmacist about it. If you have sensitive skin, be sure to include that too. Use the medication or lotion regularly or as instructed. Every morning and night, wash your face with warm water and try to stay away from heat and smoke. This includes fire, stoves, etc. Avoid touching your face with dirty hands and never pick or poke the scabs. Try not to get shampoo over the zits, if possible. This can cause irritation.


    If you're face is still reddish or has a few blemishes by the end of two weeks.. try a bit of foundation. Works on both genders. ;]


    good luck. :pHow to get rid of your zits less den 2 weeks?
    if you want to get rid of them quick use toothpaste

    just started breaking out 4 the first time...ahhh!!!!!!!!!!! can someone please give me some tips on getting rid of these ugly things w/ out paying a lot of $$??? (preferably not some cream thing, just tips on how to get rid of them naturally, but product names will do :D)


    thnx!


    XDThe common question about skin (pimples zits brakouts ect;..)?
    theres really not a naturally way of getting rid of them but eat less greasy food use proactive or neutrogina or some other medicated ointment like thatThe common question about skin (pimples zits brakouts ect;..)?
    For GREAT SKIN:


    1] buy a face wash, toner, sunscreen, and moisturizer for your skin type. Wash, tone, and screen in AM; wash, tone and moisturize in PM.


    2] exfoliate with an apricot scrub twice a week.


    3] use an acne cream or gel on any zits


    4] be sure all face productas and makeup are non-comedogenic [ don't cause zits ]


    5] keep hair and hands off face


    6] avoid fried, fast, and junk foods


    7] drink 1/2 gallon of water a day


    8] take a good multivitamin with minerals every day


    9] don't share towel or washcloth with anyone


    10] change pillowcase at least weekly



    Here are a few tips to get rid of those ugly spots. Avoid fast foods, drink lots of water and exercise regularly. Meats, sugar, tea or coffee, pickles, soft drinks, candies, ice cream, refined and processed foods are all the main cause of acne or pimples. Don't ever pinch or pick at a pimple it will leave a scar. Wash your face regularly. Wear light oil free make up and be sure to remove it at night. More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/



    I strongly recommend witch hazel. It is cheap, easy on the skin, and can be used several times a day. Te scent is also pleasant. You can buy a bottle at your local pharmacy for just a few dollars and it will last a good log time. Just wipe your face with it regularly.

    Appears to be a zit on my gum below a tooth with a filled cavity?

    I found a little bump that looks like a large zit on the side of my gum, which is right by the only tooth ive ever had filled for a cavity. Help?Appears to be a zit on my gum below a tooth with a filled cavity?
    An abscess is filled with pus.





    If left untreated, it can find its way into your bone. Bone infections are not good. At best your tooth will fall out. At worst, it gets to you sinuses and your eyes and you are in for massive health bills and lots of pain.





    Not trying to scare you, but they are very serious things. I had one and it was no fun at all.





    To the person who said 'it eventually went away', there's no proof that it didn't move somewhere else. And if it did go away, you were one of the lucky ones.





    Good to the dentist ASAP. It's kind of one of those things you don't want to mess around with.

    What is a definate way that zits will go away!?

    family secrets ..... anything!What is a definate way that zits will go away!?
    Proactive is a joke. However the lemon juice and crushed aspirin trick really does work. As does the toothpaste but only if it is the white pasty texture, not the gels.





    Go to a walgreens or whatever drug store is near you and look through the products for a cream with the highest salicylic acid content you can buy. Apply the cream whenever you are around the house and can afford to run around with a white lump of goo on your face. It will dry right up within a day or two.





    I personally use Clearasils acne treatment cream, it'll do the trick.





    good luck!What is a definate way that zits will go away!?
    proactive is good but family recipe make a paste of aspirin and lemon juice.
    use proactiv' as seen on TV its sold in stores now.. work wonderful for my daughter and has made an incredible facial change
    try toothpaste!!! Dries it rightup... or put a lime on it... THe lime idea stings a little more!!!!
    Ok, this is TOTALLY gross BUT my grandmother SWEARS it will work! Take a cotton ball or whatever and dip it in urine, YES URINE, PEE! And kinda cleans your face with it. It's supposed to work. I've always been to chicken to try it. You can also try toothpaste (my grandmother told me about that too.), I've tried that it def. helps!
    I have found that Proactiv works best, but it's not a cure-all (nothing to date is). Proactiv will most likely keep your break-outs to a minimum, and hey, that's good news. I found that Differin worked well enough in terms of keeping my skin from breaking out, but so help me God it made my skin oilier, so I chucked it out.





    Most important thing? Always keep your skin clean. Always. Never skip the 2-times-a-day cleansing routine, (including toner and a gel, etc. for treating/preventing blemishes.) Even when you're sick. Oh, and if you're using Clinique ANYTHING, stop right now. It is one of the worst lines for acne-prone skin. I like Neutrogena skin clearing foundation.
    burn them with acid, but it will kill you!! HAHA
    Good healthy diet of fresh fruits %26amp; vegies %26amp; loads of water!!!!!!


    NO Fatty Foods, Sweets etc (not only good for your zits but your health as well)





    Make sur you cleanse 2x a day moistise 2x a day and mask/exfoliate 2 a week

    How can i clear up my zits on my face? ?

    every now and then ill break out on my face and i want it to stop. people are starting to notice. what does everyone suggests i do to get it to go away?? =]How can i clear up my zits on my face? ?
    It might be something oily you're eating. Think about your diet. Have you recently started eating greasy foods? (It might be the cause.)





    If you can't think of anything that could possibly cause breakouts, lets just focus on how to get rid of it.





    There are several ways.





    1) Rub rubbing alcohol on the spots on your face where you break out.


    2) Use oil-absorbing sheets if your skin is oily.


    3) Make sure you wash your face thoroughly everyday (try to be consistent)





    If those don't work, here's another thing you should do - go to the doctor. Trust me, I've had a lot of breakouts and when I went to my family physician, he gave me this face wash that works like a charm.


    It's very effective and easy to apply, so you might want to try seeing a doctor.





    Hope I helped :)





    Good Luck.How can i clear up my zits on my face? ?
    Use an acne cream morning and night. I've tried three products over 1 year and the only one that works for me is Sea Breeze. You can find it at pharmacies. (CVS, ect.)





    Products:


    Neutrogena(Cleared my face, but left it so dry that my nose started to peel)


    Ambi(Worked in the beginning, but stopped working when I got real bad break-outs.)


    Sea Breeze(Amazing, Keeps my face moisturized, un oily, keeps my break-outs to a minimum.)





    (There are more, but those are the one's that I've tried. They all helped temporary, but the one that continues to work till this day is ';Sea Breeze';)
    *Don't wash too much to start with.


    *Go see your doctor, there are pills you can take.


    *Proatcive doesn't work, sorry.


    *Take a look at your face and decide what type skin you have, oily, dry or multi and buy the appropriate cleanser to use once or twice a day.


    *Don't sleep in your make up


    *Don't eat greasy/bad foods
    try washing your face or get that proactive stuff

    What is the best way to get rid of a zit other than popping it?

    I just got a few pimples and i want to know if anyone has any good recommendations for a moisturizer or cleanser and if you do tell me where i can get it! What is the best way to get rid of a zit other than popping it?
    sound weird...but polysporin...


    not directly on your face, rub it on


    your hands first, then put it on your


    face....because it get rid of the bacteria


    that's causing the pimplessss....





    try it out...What is the best way to get rid of a zit other than popping it?
    You don't need proactive for one zit! That stuff is really strong and full of chemicals! Just try alternating hot and cold compresses with a face cloth(one thats really hot, hold it on for 30 seconds then one thats really cold, 30 seconds)...it'll coax the little guy out, then go take a hot shower and scrub your face. To avoid getting zits in the future try using a mask once a week and scrub every other day or every two days...wash your face every night with non scented soap, cetaphil is really good.


    Hope this helps!
    dab tea tree oil on it at night %26amp; it will be gone or greatly reduced in the morning. for cleansers you can try cetaphil, or a health food store brand equivalent. right now, i'm using honey to cleanse my face.
    well right now im use proactive like just started it today so far im not that impessed cauz like it burns my face but then i rinse that part that im supposed to rinse off after rubbed on and its fine soo im told it really really works oo ill see
    i use something called rapid clear


    its in a small orange tube by neutragena and it works really well and cleans zits up really fast





    you can find it at a target if you have one
    Eat them. That's what I do.
    put glue on yur thumb then put it on your zit,then wait 4 5 mins. lastly pull really hard!

  • Does pluckin give u pimples or zits?

    im gonna pluck the hair between my eyebrowsDoes pluckin give u pimples or zits?
    Plucking does not permanently remove hair. It does make it grow slower than shaving though because shaving only removes the hair from above the skin while plucking will remove the hair by the root underneath the skin.





    Plucking will not ';give'; you pimples. A pimple can form if the hair becomes ingrown as it grows back and the pore is clogged, or if you naturally have large pores which can become clogged if dirt and oil get when there is no hair. That is a possibility if you have an oily t-zone, but as long as you keep the area clean that should reduce your chances of getting a pimple there.





    Hope that helps!Does pluckin give u pimples or zits?
    it's not permanent

    How to get rid of zits?

    someone told me to put hydrogen peroxide on my zit for ten mins. but i am too worried can you give me another suggestion that uses house hold items plz that will help a lot thxHow to get rid of zits?
    I have the same problem. and DON'T listen to anyone. the best solution is keeping ur skin clean. wash ur face alot. I bought a kind of soup that reduces zits, but I am not sure if u will find it I am egyptian and I bought it from egypt. and use some creams that reduces zits but you must ask a GOOD doctor about the cream ur gonna use. and be sure to NEVER touch them because that can increase them and when they go away they will leave a little mark forever. and if u have zits because ur a teenager thats a normal thing and that can take YEARS to disappearHow to get rid of zits?
    Try products with Benzoyl Peroxide-


    Benzoyl peroxide is a preparation that causes the release of oxygen into the pores of the skin. The bacteria that causes acne, Propionibacteria acnes, is not able to exist in so this product stops it from increasing and causing outbreaks. The acne causing bacteria thrives in pores that are clogged by dead skin cells, dirt and dust which often happens as a result of out of control hormones which produce excess sebum in teenagers. Benzoyl peroxide will help to prevent any flareups and breakouts and must be used continuously, even if there is no redness or pimples, instead of as a spot treatment.





    Benzoyl peroxide is a good product to use if you have mild to moderate acne and can be bought OTC as a benzoyl peroxide 2.5 gel as well as in concentrations up to 10%. It is a good idea to start with the 2.5% lotion or gel, which is usually very helpful, and only increase the concentration as your skin has become used to the product or if you need a better treatment. You would be best to wash your face gently up to twice each day with a benzoyl peroxide wash then use the lotion or gel. Ensure that you apply over the whole of the area affected to stop any breakouts in otherwise clear skin. If you have body acne, you can also buy benzoyl peroxide body wash.
    im not going to tell you the obvious thing (wash your face, keep your bangs off your forehead, dont use oil-based makeup). because you already know that.





    You know on the proactive commercials, how they have the refining mask? Well, i find that toothpaste works just as well . But make sure you use tooth PASTE, and not the gel kind.





    Also, try using the wave. it really does open your pores, and make you feel like your face is clean.
    Just leave them alone, do not put toothe paste or any other stuff because they are all lies... Just wash your face morning and night, and when your in the shower, then follow up with an astrigent, then put differin, or proactive on your face... Do not pick at them, and do not sqeeze them....
    use white toothpaste (don't use blue or else you'll have blue spots on your face in the morning!). put it on your zits and leave it on overnight. It dries it out. also click the link, this is what I do every once in a while and it works magic.





    http://tinyurl.com/pm4pj4
    if you leave them alone they go away faster, just wash your face %26amp; dont mess with it. Its benzel peroxide %26amp; it does work its just like a cream.
    JUST POP EM.

    How can i get rid of this huge painful zit?

    I have this huge painful zit between my nose and cheek that i need to get rid of or pop because it hurts so bad. but it is to hard to poke with a needle and it hurts to even touch it. let alone pop it. please help...





    oh! and last night i used proactive on it which normally always works but this one is a toughy.How can i get rid of this huge painful zit?
    What works for me is to put a warm compress (a hot, wet washcloth works) on it - that should bring the zit up to the surface faster and put benzoyl peroxide on it.How can i get rid of this huge painful zit?
    NEVER pop a zit!! it justs gets worse and you may have scars Report Abuse

    proactiv has a product called the refining mask that has sulfur in it and that you put on, leave for 10 minutes, and take it off. in about two days it should start fading away.


    WHATEVER U DO, DONT POP IT. popping zits like that can create a dark scar on your skin. permanently.
    toothpaste doesnt work!!





    perfume does, it dries it out!
    Get astrigent (SP?) and a tube of ZapZyt. I had a painful one on my nose and I used that combo and it went away in 2 days.
    try toothpaste on it!
    Crush up an asprin and mix it with water to form a paste. Put it on the zit overnight. It works like a charm.
    just give it time, and if your really desparate try using benzol peroxide if you can get it
    You need to deal with the pain of popping cause that's the fastest way to get rid of it. But until you can bare it, Put mint toothpaste on it. It will sting but it will make it smaller until you can pop it good. After you pop it put a little more toothpaste on it and it'll go away

    What are some effective ways to get smooth, clear, zit free skin on my face?

    I have used many different products to get rid of my acne and to get my skin soft and smooth, but none have worked. My skin tone is medium. Have any tips?What are some effective ways to get smooth, clear, zit free skin on my face?
    Wash your face, morning and night. And always wash off you're make up before you go to bed.





    You also might want to look into getting proactive. It really works!


    Another product that works that I use every day is Seabreeze. It comes in this bottle and its a cleaning astringent. It stings, but it cleans. You can pick it up at your local grocery store, or walgreens or whatever.





    hope this helps :)What are some effective ways to get smooth, clear, zit free skin on my face?
    When i lived in AZ i never broke out so i never had to deal with this problem, but now i live in FL and the weather made me break out, a lot.


    but my stepsister has Noxzema. So i tried it out.


    You just put it on in the shower.


    My acne was clearing up within the next day.
    Tea-tree foaming face wash from boots with the tea-tree shine control moisturizer. It seriously helped me, although it sometimes it can leave your skin a bit dry but if you moisturize regularly with a different moisturizer then you should be fine.

    How to get rid of zits quick!?!?

    i have a ton of zits on my forehead and temples (not to gross anyone out) and nothing seems to be helping them... is there anyway way that i can get rid of them quickly? i've tried prescription medication and clearasil... they haven't been workingHow to get rid of zits quick!?!?
    This is what I would do:





    Mix baking soda and witch hazel/or water together until it comes to a good constancy, and then spread on your face and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. these two things are very inexpensive and it's very easy to do since there is only two ingredients.





    Toothpaste is good for drying out your pimple (for some people). Put only a little bit before you go to sleep. Some people use this as a mask but DON鈥楾 EVER DO THIS! It can change your skin tone and make your face discolored.





    Aloe vera helps scars lighten and less noticeable (lemon, cocoa butter, witch hazel, and tea tree oil do the same thing). Use the gel (of the aloe plant) or the real thing.





    Try to buy a cleanser that works for you, and when you wash your face, open your pores with hot water (not too hot, or it will dry out your skin) and massage it gently into your skin. Then, use cold water at the end to close you pores. The smaller your pores are, the less likely you're prone to pimples. Clearasil, Neutrogena, and proactive are good choices to start if you want a cleanser. Don't use body soaps because they dry out your skin. Don't scrub too hard either, because it can irritate your skin.





    An egg yoke can be used to make you pores smaller. I used this when I had pimples. Just take the egg yolk (the yellow part) and leave it on your face for 10-15 minutes and rinse off with warm water and then splash your face with cold water.





    Keep your hair out of your face because the oils in your hair could go into your pores. Change you sheets because they're are trapped with dirt, oils, etc.





    Zinc (type of vitamin) is the one of the best things you can use to get rid of pimples. You can buy these almost about any large store (such as Wal-Mart or Shaws.) Have one tablet per day and try to cut down the junk food and replace it with vegetables and fruits. Drink lots of water and don't pop you acne. Popping acne can lead to acne scars.





    If you have sensitive skin, don't use make up. Some of the things in make up can clog your pores and cause pimples. Keep your hands out of your face as much as you can because you hands a full of bacteria and oils.How to get rid of zits quick!?!?
    one word WATER
    clearasill works but hurts like hell
    i just tried this yesterday and mine are all gone now. what you do is get an orange go ahead and eat it, save the peel. take the peel and run the inner part under warm water until it feels soft. rub it on your face ALOT especially before you go to bed the next day you will definately see the effects and all your bumps and zits will be gone.!
    well, toothpaste worked for me before, but i wouldnt use it religiously or anything .


    it just helps to dry them out faster .
    So since you had a prescription I guess you've seen a doctor. I use aveeno clear complexion products if that helps?
    I know a great cure!!! Its simple!! All you have to do is drink NOTHING but water. Your zits should be completely gone in a few days.
    lots of water.rapid clear also works real fast 8 hours to be exact.


    also clean and clear works fast. any way good luck and remember nothin but water
    Ice them down , then cover them up , it flattens them out and makes them go away faster.
    tanning drys out your skin, it will get rid of your zits but is bad for your skin too!
    mild acne: i used drug store products b4 but it didn't seem to work so i went to a dermatologist. i have mild acne so my doctor prescribed me benza-clin. it worked really well. u just have to be patient and put it on every night. my face looked better after only 2 days and it wasn't very drying like the drug store products. i go to a different dermatologist now bc my parents didnt like the other one and she prescribed me Retin-A Micro. The one i go to now is one of the top doctors in nyc. The retin-a micro is good too. same as benza-clin, you have to but the retin-a on every night before you go to bed. hope i helped.
    id also stay away from lots of sugar filled stuff and also soda pop

  • How can you tell a spider bite from a zit?

    A few days ago a red bump appeared out of my face. It kind of hurt like a zit. Now i've had it for a week and usually my zits don't last this long. It is strangely hard and no puss comes out. It's peeling and it's dark purple. Doesn't hurt but it's just a bump.





    It's starting to annoy me and looks like a damn wart.





    HELP?How can you tell a spider bite from a zit?
    most spider bites are not as bad as a 'zit',but there can be some swelling at the site.


    what you describe however,could be an insect bite.


    there are a number of insects that can leave a necrotic lesion


    where they bite. these often take a long time to heal.


    bedbugs,mites,tics, and crickets can leave such a wound.


    just keep it clean with soap/water and apply a topical antibiotic


    ointment,and you should be fine.


    if you suspect a rogue skin condition,you might check with a


    dermatologist.

    How many times to I have to drain this zit on my earlobe?

    Everyday, a bump on the tip of my right earlobe gets larger and when I squeeze it, pus-like fluid comes out but returns in less than a day if I leave it alone. I've had this now for over 6 months, whats the deal?How many times to I have to drain this zit on my earlobe?
    See a dermatologist. I had something like this, I think it was a boil on the inside of my ear, which my mom who is a nurse says is an infected pimple. It hurt every time I touched it and even got to the point of being painful when I moved my head and spoke. My mom brought home a sterile needle from work and I poked a hole into it multiple times and drained out some pus and blood. After about a week, it got considerably smaller until it was just a scab.. now I think it's a scar, but I can't really tell since I can't see it.


    But definitely go to a dermatologist, I think the way I handled mine might have not been the best...How many times to I have to drain this zit on my earlobe?
    It may be a cyst or a boil. If it does not go away I strongly suggest seeing a doctor. Another good thing to do is tape on a Witch Hazel Pack at night and see if it help to draw out the pus. If not go to the doctor. Obviously it is something more than Just a pimple. God Bless ReggieR

    Keep you face clean, and refrain from touching or popping them. They will just have to go away by themselves. Get some nice kind of acne treatment gel, mary kay has a nice one, and do that for a couple of days. Wash your face every morning and night and that should do the trick :)How to get rid of zits?
    Well...





    1. Tweezers (clean them!)


    2. Benzoyl peroxide 5% (over-the-counter)


    3. Wash your face.

    is there a kind of lotion or something?I have a lot of zits on my back?
    hears your problem its either 1. you don't keep a clean back or 2. you have too much hormones for problem 1. just wash your back twice or three times a day with any products with Benz peroxide, drink alot of water to clear your systems and do not pop them it will only spread trust me i screwed myself over freshmen year problem 2. too much hormones you can take two routes A. go get some pills called umm forgot BUT THERE BLUE LOL option B. which is probably the most effective to release some hormones MASTURBATE YOUR BALLS OFF if your a girl squirt untill your running on empty, its either that or cut your balls off GOOD NIGHTI have a lot of zits on my back?
    It sounds to me like you have acne. It's okay, though. Chocolate and carbs usually cause it. So, if you really want your zits to go away, I'd try and say away from pasta, bread, and chocolate. 1 piece of bread a day and maybe 2 plates of pasta a week is fine, but stay away from chocolate as much as possible. Try and shower daily, also.
    You can do the things many other people have mentioned such as washing your back with a face acne treatment.( I think ones with salicylic acid work best) and if you use a body poof, sponge ect. get rid of it or throw it in the washing machine. Dirt and oils can buiold up in these and cause your problem. Hope I helped!
    i would wait and ask your doctor.


    dont pop them! theyll just spread, [[the oil %26amp; dirt]]


    and just make more.


    but in the mean time, i use this bar of soap that has sulfer and lanolin or something liek that. its i think spanish or something? i bought it for a $1.00.


    its a.w.e.s.o.m.e.! you should buy it. you can find it in stores


    heres a website to know more:

    I personally use my face wash (noxema triple action w/ triclosin) to wash my back while in the shower. or, you may want to see a dermatologist about it. it could be your clothing that's irritating your skin, causing acne, i know a girl that that happened to.
    neutrogena has a body wash wish salasylic acid in it, so it helps clear ance. you might also want to try differin
    that sounds awfully gross! you should see your doctor...or wait for them to go away on tthier ownn...

    use a hot wash cloth and keep it on for 10 minutes then clean your face and then put tea tree oil on itZits! Ack. How To Get Rid Of Em?
    Hey i read this in a magazine like Cosmogirl or something this is what you do get a cotton ball get it wet in clear eye drops then freeze it till its really cold and hard and place it on the zit for 10 minutes and this is should go away in one day.
    What you can do is either cancel your date(surely he'll understand), but if you do try to make an excuse. So the next choice is to cover it with make-up if it doesn't work then is your choice if you want to go to the date like that. i also have a zits all the time and is horrrible because you look dam ugly. No offence
    rubbing alcohol dries it out, then wash ur face and but dont touch it because the oils on your hands will make it ten times worse... pray that its gone tomorrow night...(ps- alcohol might stink a little and close the closest eye)
    rubbing alcohol is a drying agent that dries up zits.. just dab some on with a q-tip (warning, if youve been picking at it, it will sting a bit, but only momentarily)


    other than that the best way got get rid of it is wash your face well (take off all five layers of coverup) and DONT TOUCH IT! the oils on your hands will only make it worse
    Well you use face wash (for sure) and I have this clinique liquid stuff to help zits and things go away. and use face cream. if you use these products for a couple of days then it should go away. %26amp;%26amp; maybe cover it with some makeup too =]

    Perspiration and tight-fitting clothing can cause acne. Wear loose clothes and stay in air-conditioned areas as much as you can before your trip.


    Wash your chest daily with a salicylic acid-based cleanser or anti-bacterial soap.


    After washing use a 5% to 10% benzoyl-peroxide cream (only use this on your body - the skin on your face can't handle it as well) which will dry out the acne.


    Next use a moisturizer - preferably with alpha hydroxyl acid (this will exfoliate) that is non-comodogenic (won't clog pores).


    Try using products such as Clinique's Anti-Blemish Solution Back and Chest Spray.


    DON'T pick at them!!!Ok i need help with zits?
    try this maybe? http://www.theoilcleansingmethod.com/ i use it on my face and chest and back. do you clean it regularly??

    13 years old omg dont even worry about it ur hormones r up and down and ur going through changes and acne for some ppl is one of the changes. at ur age u shouldnt b wanting girlfriends cuz at this age girls have better things on their minds than guys right now plus their to much trouble u prolly wont have time to hang with the guys cuz of the chick on ur arm holding u back from that. ur way to young believe me. focus more on ur face so when u turn 16 or 17 ull be HOT! when i was ur age i started to get acne and i couldnt control it i had it for 3 years and i went to the dermatologist. u as a guy well theres really no hope for u cuz my dematologist put me on birth control to balance my hormones and well yeah u cant take those hahaha but i would go to a dermatologist just in case they might have something. for now put rubbing alcohol on cotton balls and clean ur whole face with it. since u have pimples it will sting but just fan it with ur hand to keep it from hurting really bad. i clean my face every night b4 i go to sleep with rubbing alcohol and i havent had a pimple in forever. it works!! i use about 5 to 6 cotton balls drenched in alcohol every night! when u use the first cotton ball look at it and u wont believe how much dirt is on it. it will be black because of the dirt u collect on ur face all day but thats good to remove all the dirt thats why u use alot of cotton balls and dont forget a night because the oil and dirt will mix and u will wake up to a big zit just over night. it would also hlp to use 3 cotton balls with alcohol on them every morning to cuz as u sleep ur face produces oil and that clogs pores. im an expert when it comes to this. im a chick i know lol when i got acne it was REALLY BAD and that was a crisis. ive been asked to model and that isnt good if u have acne as a model. ive also been chosen to enter the miss america beauty pageant well i have to win my state competition first. ever since my face has been flawless i have had guys swarm around me. their like magnets lol. kinda annoying actually. try it u should start to see results after about 3 months depending on how bad it is. use ivory soap cuz thats he purest soap out there. to prove that to u get a bar of iory soap and some other bar of soap and put in the bathtub full of water, which one floats? i recommend getting ivory soap with aloe in it. it will be a green bar or if u get the liquid it will be a green liquid. i use ivory. it helps control the oil as well. theres two kinds of ivory regular which i white and the aloe which is green. get the aloe cuz itll heal ur skin. the ivory soap and alcohol will make ur face really soft. feel after ur through!! chocolate and sodas have nothing to do with it thats all i drink and i eat all kinds of chocolate things. i never drink anything but sodas. i dont gorge myself in chocolate but i do eat it and it does nothing to my face just do what i said and u can eat anything and drink whatever k!! the chocolate thing and soda thing is just a myth so dont worry. accutane can damage ur kidneys and kill ppl. i never touched that stuff.Im getting a bunch of zits over this?
    eww why are you having acne problems maybe you should tell the girls who think ur ugly to get a life or have ur friends do it
    Get a skin routine going. There are lines designed especially for males. You can start out with just plain water and a drop of shampoo and see how that works. Get store products if your condition worsens.





    And you know what? Screw those girls that think you're the ugliest thing to walk the planet. If you've got others who are in love with you anyway then...put it together, k?





    E me for more info. Hope that helped!

    I used to have really bad acne, so I went to my dermatologist and started taking accutane..it has a lot of side effects but it really works, but you have to be really dedicated to take it. I had bad sckin all my life and now I hardly break out.
    you'r only 13 dont worry about a thing have self-confidence or u can try Murad it's for all skins types without hurtin the skin try not to buy acne products with (benzoyl peroxide) it will really mess up you'r skin
    i,am a mother of 7 kid,s and i would say to leave the all kind,s of soda pop,s alone.you know don,t drink them and i would also leave all the choclate candy and cookie,s to. and wash your face about 3 to 4 time,s a day with dail antibacterial soap.hope it work,s for it did for my kid,s good luck to you. i,am mc badboy wife.
    work on your self confidence. that will make you more attractive to girls than any cosmetic product available. if you date a girl who will only date you if you don't have acne, you're asking for what you WILL get out of it.

    Is there any home made remedies for an occasional zit?

    I rarely break out so I don't have any acne stuff but I got this zit over the weekend that is really annoying me and it's starting to hurt. Do you know of any home made remedies that I can mix together that will get rid of this thing?Is there any home made remedies for an occasional zit?
    putting toothpaste onto the zit overnight will cause the zit to dry out and therefore heal faster .





    Home remedy for Pimples using Orange peel


    Homemade zit Treatment using Orange peel has been found very effective. Pound the orange peel with water on a piece stone and apply to acne affected areas.





    mixing nutmeg and cold milk to be applied to pimples





    lemon or lime juice also works as well .Is there any home made remedies for an occasional zit?
    I've actually heard that putting a dab of toothpaste on a zit is a quick fix. It's because the ingriedients dry it out. I don't know how well it works, but it's worth a try.
    toothpaste
    Tea Tree Oil is obtained from the Melaleuca alternifoliais tree from Australia. It is very effective against Acne as it contains bacteria-fighting substances called Terpenes. Acne is often caused by bacteria and the Terpenes either outright kill them or weaken them enough to be destroyed by protective antibodies. There are very little side effects from using Tea Tree Oil.


    The watery gel from Aloe Vera plant is also a highly effective natural cure against Acne. The enzyme-rich gel has very soothing anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. It can also be taken internally and helps clean up and detox the digestive tract. This in turn can help clear up the skin.


    Zinc is taken in the form of capsules. It helps to strengthen the human immune system and to repair the skin.


    Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective Acne cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.


    Vitamin E also helps in countering Acne. It is a natural antioxidant and beneficial for the skin. Vitamin E comes in soft gelatin capsules that contain Vitamin E, Soybean Oil, Glycerin, and Water.
    Dab some toothpaste directly on the zit, let it dry, and go to bed. When you wake up, it will be much smaller, and possibly gone altogether.





    Another remedy is Milk of Magnesia. It's a white liquid that people take when they have diarrhea. It comes in a blue bottle and you can dab a bit on the zit, let it dry, and it will dry the zit out in no time at all.





    Good luck!
    Hydrogen peroxide on a cotton ball is a great alternative to astringent, isopropyl alcohol is great to dry it out during the day so you haven't got goop on your face, and a dab of some plain and simple toothpaste on it at night will definitely shrink it. Also, if it's really painful, you can try running a clean washcloth under some scalding hot tap water and put that over it for a few seconds to bring it to a head so it will pop. Just remember to put some rubbing alcohol on it afterward so it won't get infected.
