I've been using Head and Shoulders for my hair for the past two years, and my hair looks healthy. But I don't think it would affect the pimples on your face all that much ._. Cause it never did for me.

It's what a dermatologist would tell you to do if you went to see one, so, yes, it works.

If your face ever get's dried out or red from acne treatment, stop the acne treatment for a while and use a cleanser with either Almond oil, Oatmeal, or both in it. It makes your skin smooth and shiznit as well as fights bacteria.

Oh. and when all else fails on those pesky ones. Get a needle, dip it in benzoyl peroxide to sterilize, then put a straw over the puncture. put benzoyl peroxide in the straw, and blow on it to force some into the pimple. it burns. it dries out the skin. but it kills the pimple.

Stop drinking as much soda, wash your face every morning, pop them then clean your face.... Proactive?

Soda has nothing to do with acne. The whole "sugar causes zits" myth is an old wive's tale to get kids to stop eating so much sugar. It's a problem that's caused by oil and dirt clogging pores. Sugar has nothing to do with that.

Well i was watching a science video on puberty and pimples. Once you have finished going through puberty they will go away if you don't pop them



That's not true. You can still get pimples when you are an adult, they're just extremely rare and mainly happen on people with oily skin. (you want oily skin. it makes you age slower)

@Gamechief: here is a quote from someone ive talked to.

Reguardless of what doctors or professionals might say, if you're an individual that already has any case of acne then Coca-cola, Chocolate and dairy products do infact make your acne worse. No it doesn't directly "Cause" acne, but it does make it worse. I have very mild acne, but i do know giving up coca-cola , chocolate, dairy and other junk food has largely improved how my skin looks. Whenever i drink a can of Caffeinated soda ( IE: Coca-cola) i notice the next day effects. No they're not huge, but i do know this is because of the soda, i've tried it many times and every day after i drink a can i'll notice something. So do i believe it causes acne? No, if you don't have acne and you drink a can you won't get it, but i do believe if you have acne and you drink excessive amounts of Coke and consume Chocolate and dairy products on a regular day bases you'll notice your skin mysteriously getting bad, switch to diet with no dairy and only water and you'll see the difference.

But i do infact know that certain foods stimulate acne to get slightly worse, but no if you don't have acne go ahead and eat and drink whatever, if you do have it drinking water and juices will give you considerable noticing differences.

Try it.


Soda does make your acne worsen.

I stopped reading right there.

PROTIP: I've tried sugar-free dieting to prevent acne, and it didn't do shit. A skin doctor who went through med school backed me up by stating that it doesn't do shit.
P.S. It doesn't do shit.

Neutrogena scrub.
A scrub with salyclic acid.
Those "cleansing" wipes with salyclic acid.
3 times a day.
#52
1)Wash your face with proactive or anything thats kills acne.
2)If you pop a pimple put tooth paste on it so a bigger pimple wont grow back.
3)thats just my method of anti acne.

That sounds both painful and plain old wrong. o.O


Ya, that leaves scars...

Use Benzyl Peroxide or a Moisturizer...

Use em at different times and see what works for your skin type...

(Benzyl drys btw... Most people don't know that for whatever reason...)
#54
dont laugh but this actually works pretty well or getting rid of them:

Get a paste (not gel) toothpaste (the white paste stuff) and dab a little of that on one. it dries them out overnight. learned that trick from a friend and it works.

I use neutrogeuna.
The stuff in a orange bottle.

And like, i use it maybe once a week?


This is probably the best way to not get acne, listen to syd, she has perfect skin.
#56
I use the same thing as Sydd, plus I eat healthy for the most part
#57
put toothpaste on a bandaid
or go and buy something like clearasil
#58
Super hot showers could cause excessive oil to be produced as it dries out the skin and tells the body to make more. I use Oxy pads and they work rather well at keeping my skin clear. Head and Shoulders is good for getting the grease out of one's hair; I know, my hair gets really greasy. Touching the face is baaaaad! I desperately try to not lean on my hands but habit says otherwise and I notice that's where I break out. Don't pop; go with a needle. Cleaner, faster, and leaves less noticeable mark while it heals.
#59
i just use this stuff called clean and clear, it works really well, just put a tiny bit on in the morning and before bed.... its simple.., hope that helps! :P
#60
I rarely get them, like I'm near immune to them. But on the odd occasion that one or two do come through. I just pop it, funsies.
#61
1. No Oily Foods
2. Wash your face regularly
3. Dont touch it.

That works for me
#62
I just started using the Clean and Clear kit that they show on T.V.... It works and i recommend it for people with Red marks or acne in general

I agree with you sugar DOES NOT affect acme. No matter how much or how little sugar Iget everyday it never effects my acme

Again another old wives tail unless you stupidly keep picking at it after popping it.
