I have combination skin and was wondering if scrubs are harsher for combination skin than cleansers.Also, are there any moisturizers or cleansers that you would recommend for combination skin? I was also wondering if body butter works well for combination skin too. Thank you!!!

 

 

Hey there, chica! I love scrubs- especially how clean they make my face feel. But, unfortunately, I've been told by quite a few professionals that they can be too harsh on your skin if you use them daily. I'd try using a creamy cleanser for every day, and maybe use a scrub once or twice a week. I have combination skin, too, and my favorites are Aveeno (for both moisturizer and face wash), and Burt's Bees (more for the face wash). I'm not an expert, my instinct would tell me that body butter would be too oily/heavy for your face (if that's what you were talking about using it on). As for your body, though, I'm sure it would be great.

I have the "Burst's Bees Natural Acne Solution Pore Refining Scrub" it works very well! I have combination skin too. In the summer my skin gets very oily and in the winter my skin gets super dry it's annoying! But I rather have oily skin because you can just use any Oil-Free wash.

Is it true that either lemon juice or vinegar can take away acne? I have quite oily skin, and I'm having trouble getting rid of my infected blister. I've been trying to use either of them, but I feel that I think it's getting worse. Do you have any advice that could get rid of it?

ok so im been using this thing on my face called stridex maximum it looks like its already working cuz i used it right now and do you know how long it will take to get it all my pimples from my forehead there already fading away but i still have some. thxs!!! Smile

Hey girl,

How long it will take your skin to clear up really depends on your skin and the product. If you aren't seeing the results you want, talk to your parents about going to a dermatologist for professional skin advice!

I have this genetic disease called polycystic ovarian syndrome and because of it I have HORRIBLE acne and I've tried pretty much everything to get rid of it, and I know it's probably because of the disease, but I was just wondering if you would have any suggestions, thanks soooooooo much! Smile

 

Hey chica!  Sounds like something your doctor might be able to help you with you issue.  Until then, try sticking to products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide and making sure you exfoliate your skin on a regular basis. Good luck!  xoxo

mod mod mod i had really clear skin before a few days ago now i have tiny bumps between my eyebrows&forehead what gives???

Hey girl,

It sounds like you have a lil' breakout, but it's nothing a little salicylic acid can't fix! If your forehead is sweaty or oily since it's summer, you might be more likely to break out. Try using a cleanser with salicylic acid and if you're still breaking out you can talk to a doc to get a pro opinion!

Ever since i was a little girl i've had these weird bumps on the on the outside of my arms and some on the outside of my legs no matter how much lotion i use they won't go away what are they and how do i get rid of them?




Hey girl!

I actually have similar bumps on my arms too! I've had them since I was younger. If you have the same thing as me, unfortunately, they don't go away. Visit your dermatologist. He or she can prescribe a lotion or pads to use on your arms daily to make it go away. If you stop using the prescribed lotion, the bumps will come back. If you don't want to do that, make sure you moisturize your arms right after you get out of the shower while your skin is still a bit damp.

I've tryed most of these facial washes but they really don't work any advice to help me get rid of my ache with facial wash and other things that can help clear any acne on my body as well
