pimples spots and skin discolourations

Answer 1

Don't wear your makeup to bed. We all know it, but we sometimes do it anyway. Layers of foundation, powder, and blusher left on overnight can clog pores and lead to acne or folliculitis. Take it all off before bed with a mild non-soap cleanser. But don't waste your money on a cleanser with glycolic acid or AHAs: "It's not on your face long enough to absorb into the skin." These ingredients are more effective in your moisturizer.

Hands off those zits. Poking, prodding, and popping can prolong a pimple's life and make the problem worse. Scarring and the spread of infection are two possible consequences. To speed up healing, cleanse your face, then apply a warm compress, such as a clean, damp washcloth. Next, dab on an over-the-counter cream or lotion containing a drying agent, such as salicylic acid, sulfur, or benzoyl peroxide. Or if you have a tight budget use a simple astringent cleanser this will help dry them out.

Adopt "water, water, every day" as your mantra. Yes, drinking water does keep you hydrated, which helps skin look and feel better. Get in the standard 6 to 8 eight-ounce glasses throughout the day -- more if you're a heavy exerciser. Becareful, many of the new sugar substitutes are dehydrating, so drink more water if you're into low-cal liquids.

Get your shut-eye. Most of us don't get the eight to nine hours we need to avoid sleep deprivation. There haven't been any conclusive studies on how being tired affects skin, but the effects aren't hard to detect -- namely, under-eye circles. The solution: Budget in sleep time, including a short afternoon nap whenever you can manage it.

Unless you have an allergy to a particular food,cutting out the foods will not affect your acne. A few tips: -Steam your skin.This should be done for 10-15 minutes,as often as needed,preferably daily if you suffer from blackheads or whiteheads.Either use a facial steamer or boil some water in a pot and steam your face(after you've cleansed your face). -Use a mask once a week.Queen Helene's Mint Julep Masque is pretty good,considering it is very cheap and affordable. -Exfoliate 1-2x a week.St.Ives Blemish & Blackhead Control Apricot Scrub contain Salicylic Acid which helps blackheads in particular while exfoliating. -Use oil free,non comedogenic products,which means they will not clog pores. -Use a cleanser with Salicylic Acid twice a day. Visiting a dermatologist would be your best option,over the counter products rarely work to fix these issues(which sucks) I know,but a dermatologist can give you the right treatments and advice. A good once a week treatment to do: -Cleanse your skin -Exfoliate your skin -Steam your skin -Apply a masque to your skin

when you go to bed on a night rinse your face in warm water and a facial cleaser, this will open and clean your pores then towel dry gently then add neat toothpaste to the spots, it may sting but it reduces swelling and kills the bacteria. My boyfriends swears by this so good luck.
