that could work in a few daysAny solutions for acne and blackhead problems?
To get rid of acne. Try a gentle cleanser. One that is glycerin or sorbitol based will be good and it does not need to be expensive. Cetaphil and Neutrogena has some pretty good ones. Try Cetaphil庐 Gentle Skin Cleanser.
Proactiv works for some people it clears up for a while but acne may come back. It is also very harsh on your skin and may dry it all up, definitely not for people with sensitive skin. My friend said it corroded and bleached her metal sink so if it can do that to the sink, think of what it is doing to your face. So Proactiv is a no no.
Wash your face at least twice a day and everytime after you perspire. If your skin is the oily kind, you do not need to apply any moisturizer, your skin oils are enough to keep it hydrated. If you really must apply a gentle light oil free one. Cetaphil庐 Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 or Cetaphil庐 Moisturizing Lotion is quite good
Apply pimple cream to the acne area. Try benzoyl peroxide low strength(2.5%) first. Don't pick poke scrub or pop your pimples unless you want scars which are really ugly. Scrubbing cleansers or washes are also no-nos because it equals picking and poking and makes acne worse Treated pimples gently.
To get rid of blackheads. Try steaming your face over a pot of boiling water. The steam will open up the pores making it easier for exfoliation. However be careful not to oversteam or you will burn your face.
Exfoliation goes a long way. Try st ive's blemish and blackhead control apricot scrub at least once a week. Use it on the nose and areas with blackheads. DO NOT use them on areas with acne as the scrub is pretty harsh and may scratch or hurt the acne area making it worse.
Another way could be buying a comeodone spoon. One of those metal sticks with a loophole at the end at any beauty store. After steaming your face, use it to press gently on your nose to tweeze out those blackheads.
Eat healthy. Make sure you drink plenty of water. Cut down on sugar and carb intake. Foods like chocolates, coffee, soda drinks, bread, rice potatoes or anything starchy and sugary are no-nos. Cut down on oily and fried foods also. Go for grilled, steamed or baked food. Make sure you eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Ensure that your diet is rich in vitamin A, C, E and Omega-3 which are important for the skin. Less stress and sleeping enough is also important. Not having enough sleep is like putting stress on your body. Makes sure you sleep at least 8 hours a day.
If you are a smoker. Try to quit. Smoking causes a lot of damage to your skin because it introduces toxins to it. These toxins can clog the pores or make the skin harder to breathe and that鈥檚 when the acne bacteria set in. The toxins also cause longer healing of the acne as well as the marks and scars left behind by acne.
If all else fails and your acne is still very bad, it is time to see a dermatologist. The pills and medications do work but you may have to take them long term to suppress the acne as it is not a cure and acne is a chronic disease. However the pills are not miracles and you won鈥檛 see results in 2-3 days. It normally takes about 2 weeks to see the difference. However not all dermatologists prescribe pills unless your acne is really bad. The pills will include antibiotics, accutane and contraceptives. If your acne isn鈥檛 that bad, dermatologists will prescribe topical creams first. If you are really going to a dermatologist, I suggest asking about a product known as Retin-A that treats acne and acne marks and heals the scars.Any solutions for acne and blackhead problems?
Depends on the degree of acne. If mild-apply Benzoyl Peroxide 5%, Moderate to severe: topical antibiotics like Clindamycin or Erythromycin will dry up your acne in 2-3 days. You can get these over-the-counter.
Use a toner with salicylic acid for your blackheads, and a glycolic acid soap for oily skin. Do not forget to moisturize.

I've answered several Acne questions and it pains me to see so many people having similar problems. I tried Proactiv, it made my skin break out worse because of my sensitive skin. I had acne through puberty and an additional 10 years after - which I later discovered was hormone related. I had been to a few dermatologists but they just wanted to dry my skin up to the point it was flakey all the time or red with rashes. I did a lot of online research and tested many many products of my own, I can tell you that there is no pill or cream out there that you can use overnight or for a week and it will forever get rid of your outbreaks.
I finally discovered something that I believe has not been widely publicized because no company can patent it and make lots and lots of money off of people like you and me. It's called Pantothenic Acid - a fancy name for Vitamin B5. Go ahead and Google it...you will see a lot of references to curing acne. I was skeptical as with everything, but my skin has never been so soft and clear since I was probably 12 (I'm 26 now).
The one thing you have to remember when taking this vitamin supplement is that you must take it in high doses. You can buy it at any vitamin store, but only buy it in 1000mg (1gm) per pill strength. I found it online the cheapest.
To start, the recommended program starts you out with 3-5 grams a day for about 5 days. This helps your body get acclimated to the vitamin. You should start to notice a difference after 2 or 3 days, smaller pours, healed blemishes, and I even noticed increased energy. After 5 days increase your dosage to 10 grams a day. I know it sounds like a lot, to take 10 pills a day, but think about how much you want clear skin and that should get you past it. The recommended program has you taking 10 grams for 3 months before backing off to 3-5 for maintenance. I actually only took 10 grams for a month and now am just maintaining with 5-6 grams a day and its working just fine. I did miss a day of pills and immediately started to breakout again so this is one of those things you must be faithful with.
Expect to shell out about $25 a month on 1000mg Pantothenic Acid. A small, small price to pay when you think of all the money wasted on the products out there.
There are very little negative side effects. The only thing I would recommend is to take 3 pills with each meal, and one with a snack, otherwise you may get a little gas or slight diahrea. Nothing major though and by taking with meals it eliminates that problem.
If I help just one person with this recommendation, writing this would have been more than worth it. I know how frustrating it is to have acne, but it doesn't have to be for any one else out there who trys this simple yet effective treatment.
clearasil products are good...but so you won't get black heads and reduce your acne try do use a daily face wash...and moisterize...it has helped me

My Dog Has A Blackhead Pimple?
My ';Sheltie';, has a pimple on her rear to the right. I noticed it 3 weeks ago whe I went to pet her. It's real small and I can see it when I seperate her hair because she has a lot of hair hiding it. It doesn't appear to be puss filled or getting any bigger. Any suggestions? P.S. I do use ';Frontline Top Spot'; for fleas and ticks. Could it be a bite?My Dog Has A Blackhead Pimple?
not likely a pimple... probably a small skin lesion.. Dont press it or mess with it at all. If it grows, gets filled or anything take her in to the vet to have it checked. if its right on her bum it could be a swollen anal glad. Just keep it clean and an eye on it.My Dog Has A Blackhead Pimple?

Pimple Or a Blackhead im concerned what comes out of it.?
i got this area on my cheek blackheads, pimples i don't know
when i pop it it comes out this dot which looks abit like a sesame seed
:S can someone tell me what this is? and at the tip of the sesame seed look alike its blackPimple Or a Blackhead im concerned what comes out of it.?
Its a blackhead.
Best solution.
Cleanse (I suggest Clarins cleansing milk) tone and moisturise twice a day and swap a standard cleanser to exfoliate 2 -3 times a week.
will work brilliantly and you will see results in a couple of weeks
Hope this helps,
SugarplumPimple Or a Blackhead im concerned what comes out of it.?
its a black head, you need to clean you face and pours thouroughly steaming your face works very well( pour boiling hot water into a large bowl and with a towel over the back of your head put your face closer to the water like a steam room then after 5 miins use a cold flannel wipe your face down) This opens up your pours and allows them to be cleaned
its a black head, and the stuff that comes out of it is probably dried sebum (oil) and dirt :)
best way to get rid of them is to use clearasil sea salt scrub :)
it works really well. :)
hope i helped :)

I Have One Blackhead In My Ear And I Was Wondering How I Could Get Rid Of It.?
Pop it.I Have One Blackhead In My Ear And I Was Wondering How I Could Get Rid Of It.?
You need a blackhead tool!
---%26gt;http://blogs.smarter.com/beauty/2008/03/鈥?/a>
Don't listen to the article for your ear, warming it is good for your FACE!
But, just with normal skin, have someone take the tool and pop it. It might hurt, but only for 20 seconds or so, not even. Then just rub the now gone black head with alcohol.
I just had to have my mom pop one in my ear for me like, last week, icky %26gt;.%26lt;
but it works ! so do it! (you can get that tool at like, cvs, drugstores, wal*mart, ect.)I Have One Blackhead In My Ear And I Was Wondering How I Could Get Rid Of It.?
It is probably a keloid, if you have an ear piercing get it cleaned
well, you can't get rid of it in like a week, even a month. you have to wash it with soap each day 2 times. take showers each day and scrub it. don't pop it, it will hurt and come back as a scar (happened to me) so like i said, scrub it.
see the doctors, it might be dangerous to just pop it or somthing

Just try Pro Active or the generic Acne Free, that can be purchased at Wal Mart for about 16.00..You would have to order Pro Active and it is expensive, worked great for my daughter and most other people.==What are the best types of blackhead remover?
Hi!
I actually found a facial oil that slows down your skins oil production, clears up pimples/ acne and dissolves black heads within 4-8 weeks I put all the info on my blog as it's quite detailed:
http://beautymoi.blogspot.com
I also put a full article of how to extract blackheads and steam your skin.
Black heads are basically a hardened oil mixture that was secreted from your pores and oxidized (which makes the outside part black) and since water and oil don't mix, no water based product can ';clean'; your blackheads away, just try say putting certain foundations or makeups on the mirror and if you wipe it with water it smudges all over but put a little baby oil and wipe and tada! it comes off super clean AND dissolves it. So this is basically how this oil works. It's composition is such that the skin accepts it as a healing oil and it does not clog your skin but rather protects it while the plant extracts inside go down into the pores (this absorption is made possible by applying the toner to the skin before applying the oil and then applying the dabs of oil over your moistened face), it then penetrates into the pores.
I put where to the name of the oil and prices in stores versus on eBay as well as how to apply it on my blog:
http://beautymoi.blogspot.com
Also be sure to check out all the links on my blog as they have lots of info!!!
For acne you may want to Google Drying Lotion by Mario Badescu.
Take care and good luck!
