well for future reference, dont pop pimples (scratching is worse). it makes a pimple, which normally clears up in two days on its own, last up to ten days. for the problem you have now, it is possible to get rid of them in the next 2 weeks, here's how- DO NOT TOUCH THE SCABS!! ignore that urge to pick at them. try some proactive, it really does work. also, try not to stress too much, as this can also irritate your skin further.
what kind of "natural" makeup are you using? i would only reccomend the mineral powders, or better yet, none at all until your face clears. exfoliate (using a gentle formula, not sandpaper!) and then moisturize at night before you go to sleep, but dont' use anything too harsh, the face's skin is sensitive. harsh products tend to dry the skin out too much, which will also irritate it, that is why moisturizer is so important.
Proactive carries exfoliator and moisturizer, and i am reccomending that you use that brand and nothing else, because the formulas in the different products they make are made to work together. I wouldnt mix a bunch of brands together if i were you.
hope this helps and good luck, just remember that if he is a good bf, he will love you even if your face is broken out! it happens to everyone!

buy some MUDD - it is a drying mask - the original 'mudd' will dry rock-hard all over your face. put it on thick and let it dry. take a shower and then do it again every day. The Mudd mask has a 'drawing' property - to pull everything to the top. It will make all the skin dry out & peel off faster than any sunburn and you can start over by taking proper care of your skin and using hydrogen peroxide acne med.

wash your face with nubian heritage cocoa butter soap or some other 100% perfume free soap or face wash (only cold water) www.nubianheritage.com
then when your face is wet, cut a lemon in half and rub it on your face, for some reason lemons make pimples go away as well as razor bumps). Rinse the lemon off with ice cold water then rub an icecube over your face (cold water closes your pores so they appear smaller and makes your face look smoother. This should work for you, if you can't do it all make sure you definately rub your face with the lemon rinse it off and use the ice cube to close your pores. I hope it works for you.

Get some Nivea Creme - it works well. I did the same thing to my acne until it was bleeding. I put un Nivea Creme every night and morning and they disappeared within at least a week. Don't put on cover-up or concealer if you aren't going anywhere - it clogs it up and doesn't help it heal. Good luck!

I have acne, and my boyfriend doesn't care, and if he cares about you so much he shouldn't either. You should order proactiv, cause it really works, and stop scratching them. It only makes it worse, and it could lead to permanent scaring.
