Answer 1

I stopped biting my nails intially by cutting them down to the nubs whenever I got the urge and made a general practice of it so there was no temptation. I also got manicures on regular basis so I started to want them to look as pretty as possible which forced me stop to achieve that. It's really something you do unconsciously when you're anxious, worried or just thinking really. That stuff you put on is really gross but if they aren't there there isn't anything to bite so try that first and move slowly into the manicure realm.

Pimples can be quickly cleared by any product with benzoyl peroxide. Look for it on the face of the product and it should list it's percentage. The higher the percentage the stronger the product is but it can be very drying so be careful. Develop an entire routine so you're cleansing, healing your acne and moisurizing without clogging you pores. Also, drink at least 64oz. of water and eating more fruits, veggies healthy proteins..less processed, packaged and high fat foods can help as well long-term.

Answer 2

I'll help ya out. Ok, firstly for the biting the nails thing. I stopped because I had braces. Aha, so that won't work, but there are ALOT more ways without putting stuff on them!
Ok, so here is the FIRST step. WHENEVER you see yourself biting your nails, SLAP your hand. You don't want that again, do you? Now, after that, keep doing this until your nails have grown. THEN, get a REALLY nice manicure. That way, you won't be tempted to ruin them. Also, do something other than biting your nails, like chew gum! Keep your mind off of it, as best as you can. When all else fails, you GOTTA apply some yucky tasting things on it so if you are about to BITE, you get a disgusting taste instead!
Now, for the pimple. This is what I do. I splash warm water to open my pores. I then put on honey for 15-30 minutes, and then rinse it with warm water. Then, I splash cold water to close the pores. BUT, you can skip the last one and apply toothpaste. It worked for me. Just apply it after you have washed it with honey, and go to sleep. Then in the morning, just wash your face with a cleanser with warm water, then cold water to finish! Good LUCK!

I found that people who are very proud of their nails, stop biting, so get them beautiful in anyway you feel you can afford, by either doing them yourself or by going to a salon and then show them off to everybody who wants to see. And tell them you want to stop biting, so they have to ask you everyday to see them and see how pretty they are. When its time to re do the nails, then do it, don't let them get tacky, that will make you want to bite again. So keep them lovely.

My son had bad acnee and nothing really helped until we went to a dermatalogist and got the medication - acutane - we bought the generic - Claravis - from wal-mart pharmacy and it was much less expensive - 4 months later he was off the medication and now has a lovely skin. That was the only stuff that had a lasting reaction.
