Does touching your face give you more acne?

I do it all the time, but I never realize it until I’m breaking out!

Mod I'm pretty dark complected to the hair above my lip is really noticeable. I was to lazy get it waxed like normal so I plucked it and now I got a few huge breakouts what should I do.




Hey girlie,

It's probably irritated, so treat the area with a small dab of Neosporin (or another pain relief/medical ointment) until the bumps and redness go down. Now you've learned a lesson at least - plucking isn't for you! Especially if your skin reacts in such a violent way, it's best to go to the professionals Smile

Mod mod mod!!! I have acne, go figure but not just on my face. I have pimples and blemishes all ove my legs shoulders and back too. I know it shouldn't be too problematic, but I'm embarrassed to wear even tank tops and short shorts. What should I do? Why does this happen to me, yet none of my friends have any acne at all? Is it maybe because I'm only a middle schooler? Thanks!!




Hey chica! Acne on your back (back-ne) is totally common. There are a ton of exfoliates and other acne products that you can use to help. Just make sure you're really cleaning your body every time you take a shower. Actually scrub your body with a product and then again with soap to remove the excess oils from your skin. Everyone's skin is different, just because your friends don't have it doesn't mean you won't either. You can talk to your doctor also about a prescription acne cleanser, one with benzoyl peroxide (that's what really kills the bacteria that gets clogged in your pores!) xoxo

hey everyone! i have some advice for anyone looking for some blemish solutions.
for the past week, i've been putting 5 drops of oregano oil into my orange juice into a small amount of orange juic in the morning. it's supposed to clear up acne, and is taken by many people as a preventative oil for many other things. it also cures sore throats and stings, as well as many other things.
i've been keeping track of the amount of blemishes i have on my face, back, and chest, and i realized that they have become less inflamed and i've stopped getting as many.
i've recently stepped it up to two times a day with 5 drops (still in orange juice), but i haven't noticed any progression yet.
also, if you want to try this natural solution, i would reccomend pouring a larger seperate glass of juice, water, or something to drink so that the taste doesn't stay in your mouth. it tastes really bad, that's why you have to chug it hahaha...
well, i hope this helps some of you! Smile

Right now, my face feels like sandpaper!! I was wondering if there is a way to moisturize my face without causing breakouts. Some things that could be contributing to my dry skin is:
I just started using a topical acne cream with 10 percent benzyl peroxide.
I am visiting family in the mountains where the climate is dry.
My skin feels terrible, so please help!

Mod~
Hey! So I have the normal/combo type of skin and I was just wondering 2 things...
1) I've heard that makeup can cause acne, is that true? And do you know of any water-based concealer-type products?
2) I know what pores are, but I don't know what they look like... call me crazy hehe Smile Could you give me a description of their appearance?
Thanks so much!!!
xoxoxo




Hey chica,

1. Makeup can cause breakouts because it lays on top of our pores, just like dirt. But that doesn't mean you have to stop wearing makeup altogether - just be sure you wash your face clean each night to let it breathe! Water-based concealers are a lil more pricey than other kinds, but Ulta sells a concealer by Studio Gear for just $15 that could do the trick!

2. Pores are basically holes in your skin...I know, it sounds kinda gross but they're so tiny you can't even tell! They let air, liquids, etc. pass through your skin - and when they get clogged up, you get pimples!

i wash my face day n night and put on medicine so i dont know my mom says its hormones but is really irritating so what can i do to cover it up n to most importantly to clear it up !




Hey girl, it's hormones, trust me, and we all get pimples. Understand your face may not be clear right now, but the best you can do is keep it clean to prevent new acne/keep things under control.
