How to clear up acne on chin?

Question

I started a twice daily facial cleansing regimen, and it is working wonders on my forehead. My forehead is completely clear, but my chin is still pretty bad! It is getting a little better (i think), but the pimples are very red,and i think i have some reddish scarring. I tried putting toothpaste on some of the bad spots, but it didn't reduce the redness or size. School is coming up, and my chin is so unbelievably red. The acne doesn't bother me as much as the redness does. Please help me! If you know anything that would help clear up my chin, or even just reduce the redness, I would really appreciate it! ~Thanks~

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

A couple of home made remedies, they work, I promise. I use them. They might sound weird, but they are for real.
1: Buy uncoated cheap aspirin, it is available at CVS. Take a handful into the shower, drop a few drops of warm water on them in your hand and make a moist paste. Apply this to chin/facial areas as a little mask while in the shower. You can even lghtly rub it around as a scrub with the water on your hands from the shower. (I do this about once every two weeks all over my face for maintenance) It will reduce redness and get rid of the unwanted pimples. Don't do it too often, but at first every few days is OK, but then back off a bit as it is drying!

Another thing to do, I like it after the aspirin, is to use philips milk of magnesia (no off brand) Put it like lotion on your face. Rinse off after about 20 minutes, and you'll be amazed. Some of my friends even sleep in it, though I don't.

Another thing, to be done separately and not when you have NOT done the aspirin routine is to use a mix of raw apple cider vinegar (VERY important, only the kind you can buy at Whole foods or natural markets, not Heinz, as they are too processed and will not work) The brand I use is Bragg's, look it up online for info. Mix some water with the Bragg's, then use a cotton ball to apply. It smells bad, but trust me, it is a miracle. Reduces the appearance of pore size, calms redness, etc.

For a moisturizer, try something light and natural. Don't buy it at the drugstore, but a place like whole foods. Even oily skin needs moisturizer. A very crucial point to great skin.

Lastly, VEVER use rubbing alcohol on your skin. I am amazed when I read people writing that. It is awful for your skin.

Niacinamide face cleansing pads are effective and simple way to keep acne away. Just place a pad on the pimple and watch it fade away. Lavender Oil helps prevent skin drying. Niacinamide pads are also known as Vitamin B3 pads or Nicotinamide pads. Works on body acne too. Give them a try and you will be pleasantly surprised. Niacinamide also helps diminish skin-hyperpigmentation (acne scars).
