Is there a facial to remove all my acne?
Prom is coming up and I'm wondering if there is like a facial or something I can do to remove all my blackheads and pimples and stuff.

well i don’t know if this will work for you but it did for me :D
i am 17 and a couple of months ago when i was on vacation in mexico i talked to this skin specialist (in her own mind because she never went to college or anything) and she told me that i should use…(don’t laugh!) tequila, i am NOT kidding, she said that wiping your face with like wipeups is the worst thing you can do because particals get stuck in your pores and cause more acne! so she told me to get a (white) piece of a pillow case or like an old sock, and then you just put some tequila on it (WHITE tequila, doesn’t matter what brand but cheap is fine so long as it is clear like water colored) and then rub your face with it for a while, and you would be amazed how much dirt comes off! (thats why it should be white, so you can see) it really took care of all my acne, after a couple of weeks. and if i see a breakout coming i just put some VAPORUB on the spot and it is gone by the next day!
so good luck, and hope you try this.

You can get a facial for acne. It won’t cure you but part of the facial is they extract all your blackheads. It can’t hurt to get one, your skin will feel and look great. Just don’t do it like the day before prom incase you have an redness or irritation.

So many things wrong with what Victoria said. First of all, this advice is from someone who didn’t go to school, unlike myself.
Alcohol will dry out your skin which will dry out your acne, but in the long run, it will cause more problems.
Vaporub is mostly petroleum, which will block any air from getting into the pore which is needed.
A facial would be great. Do it a few days before prom and they can extract whiteheads and blackheads safely and effectively without hurting the skin.

You never get rid of white/blackheads "for good". You have to get rid of them, then maintain a regimen to minimize their recurrence. You have a few options that I’ve used- Pore Strips, Blackheadmask-Before you use any method, I would recommend that you STEAM your face first. Be careful though. Get a pot, fill it half way with hot water, get it to boil. SHUT OFF the stove, and place your face above the steam. Again, be careful. You can also get a towel, soak it in hot water, and cover your face with it. Just make sure it’s not hot enough to burn your skin. Then, do whatever treatment you want to do. After the treatment/strip/mask- Rinse your face with COLD WATER, then close your pores with either 1.salicylic Acid, or 2. Benzoyl Peroxide/acne medication 3. Sulfur ( I use de la cruz 10% but it is very drying) 4. Tea Tree oil (I’m going to be trying this one soon) to kill the bacteria that causes them in the first place. Go to http://www.blackheadmask.com if you’d like to purchase the mask (20$) but shipping takes a couple of weeks. Hope this helps. Good luck!!!
