how do you guys deal with acne

[DarkBlade2117]

my acne is getting so bad that im becoming schizophrenic about washing my face and picking at my pores. does anyone have anything thats work for them? here is something for the people who complain about off topic posts: GTX 980

Go to a doctor, Mine prescribed me some AntiBiotics which took about 2 weeks and next thing I know the acne came pouring out. Not literally but it is very faint compared to the baseballs that were on my face.

Maybe they thought that ain't no acne, but a chicken pop!

good guess

Never touch or pick at it. Stop being sexually (real or mind or hand or other tools) active. wash face in lukewarm water. Do not use oily moisturizer or stuff in hair.. consume more veggies than meat chocolate creams and oily foods.. also check if it is due to any medication..reduce the stress as well..

Scare the acne away

[roastduck]

Get one of those exfoliating face washes and wash your face every day. Touch your face as little as possible. Put a towel over your pillow (keeps oil from building up at night).

Any time you do something that can add oil to your face, wash it. Wash your hands a lot, too. You touch your face more than you think.

[TroubleKlef]

Get a mild facial wash and moisturize everyday. Dry skin is unhappy skin.

 

If that is not enough, try a exfoliate. Remember to try the mild facial wash before this. Exfoliates are more irritating and you shouldn't be doing this every day.

 

If that is not enough, then try benzoyl peroxide and salisylic acid. 

 

also, get rid of the source. Whether it be stress, a dirty pillow, or bad hygiene. A bad diet can also trigger acne.

Also; shave every day, whether you need it or not. Shaving is GREAT for your skin

It causes slight increase in oils in face...and it will be there even if you stopped for 2 weeks. after that it will return to normal...

I dont really have acne. So I can say that doing so does not cause it.

 

because if it did, my face would be peeling off or something from an overabundance of acne.

I was just lurking because lunchbreak, and then this happened:

I use clearasil rapid action pads. They are just facial wipes that i rub on my face, i do it every morning and every night after i have a shower, they work great, IDk what they'd be called in your country. or if they are even in your country.

I just can't stop laughing at this.

From a person who suffers from moderate acne, this is what I suggest:

• http://www.amazon.com/Dr-G-Gowoonsesang-Brightening-Peeling-120ml/dp/B007TFW0B6 (peels off dead skin cells. You will feel flakes come off and your skin will turn whiter and much more softer)
• Salicylic Acid wash (2%) (helps clear up clogged pores)
• Benzoyl Perioxide lotion (3-5%) (kills bacteria that causes acne, shrinks size significantly if used correctly)
• Liquid toner and liquid lotion. (must be liquid)

If Salicylic Acid irritates your skin in any way, try another face wash.

There are also home remedies like the egg white massage (works).

 

Also DO NOT pick on your skin. Even if you want to get them extracted get them done by a professional with the correct tools.

I personally pop them myself, but I do them with the correct tools and knowledge. 

You can consider expensive methods like blue laser therapy, etc; but that'd be a waste tbh.

For me, my acne is starting to clear up significantly which is a good news for me!

 

Basic tips:

1. Sleep
2. Hydrate/Moisturize
3. Wash face often
4. Wash pillow/blanket covers often
5. Try making changes to your diet. (like there are studies that milk many encourage acne, but I can't live without my Starbucks)

 

P.S. You can't do much for the scars. I'm planning to get laser therapy/filler shots after my acne condition calms down, 

I'm still in my teens so I guess my hormones are raging.

70% alchohol, and just don't touch your face.

[Remilia]

A good dose of gasoline and a matchstick, I can guarantee your acne will go away.

Along with some other stuff, like your face, but that's not important.

[ObeseWalrus]

Don't fucking touch your face, ever. Except when you wash it off. You also need to change your bedsheets super often to keep that clean.

[JuztBe]

I was using some kind of medicine with alcohol in it. It was really effective.

Alcohol actually irritates your skin further. Even when you pop pimples, it is a bad idea to treat it with alcohol before you rupture it.
