Help with breakouts!?
I can't make it stop!! :\ It's like one morning I woke up and my face like declared war or something. I wash my face at least once daily and use special acne-spot treatment but nothing seems to make it stop. Any ideas on what I can do?? I don't use any styling products in my bangs that would clog pores, I pin my bangs back at nite and I really don't wear much makeup, on my forehead especially... except when I breakout and I just ose L'Orael concealer. HELP!!
SOS!!!

This will sort it out, I know as I too had bad acne, get a face wash with benzoyl peroxide 10%, this will kill the bacteria on and inside your pores, also cleans out the pores/black heads, just squeeze some onto your hand then put on each side of face, chin and forehead and message it into your skin especially the places with most acne, let it dry for about 2 mins, then wash your face in a sink of warmish water, its best to also wash your face in warm water before apllying the face wash, then pat dry, after this you will need a moisturizer perferably one which contains no oil ingrediants. I do this in the morning before getting a shower, but at night i would put a smaller bit of benzoyl peroxide on a wet cotton pad as it does’nt dry the skin as much and therefore no need for putting moisturizer on b4 going to bed.
I also use 10% sialic acid, put that on a cotton pad and rub into my pores all over face, this will be more affective than benzoyl peroxide but you should only do it once a week as it really removes the top dead layer of skin and lets the new skin underneath breath, therefore cleaning out the pores and preventing them from being clogged up, you will also need a good moisturizer for this.
If I don’t keep up this routine acne starts to come back, so seems to be working very well for me, you just gotta be 1 step ahead of the wee buggers :D

persa-gel 10! it works really well…the doctor recomended it for me and its cheap and a miracle worker…dont get the cheaper kind of persa gel, its crappy and makes you break out even more!

First of all keep up with washing your face with a gently non soap cleanser! When you break out try and go as often as you can without makeup (i know this can be tough!), instead of using a concealer, go to the drug store and find the oxy pimple cream which comes in a tan colour (so its basically a concealer but also helps to dry out your pimples). Also, a REALLY important thing is to make sure you change your pillow covers very frequently and you sweat and produce oil into your pillow which can further frequent breakouts. If you havent been to see a doctor i recomend you try it, you may be able to go on the pill which can do wonders for your skin, or be put on antibiotics if its bacterial!! Make sure youre drinking LOTS of water each day to flush out your system.
