your a miracle worker is this actually works

haha more than 3 most are rally small but red

Answer 1

Proactiv does work really well! I bought mine for 60 dollars for the whole package. Soo Idk which one you want, the smallest one is 20$ for 1month works. Soo it does work.

Chammonaile Tea!

1.) Boil the water on the stove with a tea pot.
2.) Pour the water into a mug. (not a cup or else the cup will break. Also no little glasses).
3.) Put a facial Towel into the tea and then put the facial towel on your face and let it sit there for 10-15 minutes. Maybe more if you want.

Also ZENO works for acne Zapping. But of course it pays quite a few Cows.

It's 150$.

But at Sephora if you want colors. It's 185$.. But where I live there is no sales tax so yea. (colors Teal and PInk)
The only place I've seen those Zeno things were at Walgreens soo Try that store

Also if you go to Wal-Mart (not that I really shop there. Just for food). There are some scubs for your face. If you go to Sephora there is a Pimple Picker! It's about 15 dollars and you just put it on the pimple, then push, after it just squirts out the pus.

Foundation does work. Just get your skin tone. Almost every brand works. But I reccomend the Stick Foundation.

Also don't eat too much Chocolate. That can cause Redness and Pimple spots on your face.

Eat healthy Fruits and Veggies, at least 2 fruits and 3 veggies. Drink water too. Or Sobe Lean. Propel. Those drinks are all less than 10 calories.

The way to make your skin lighter is to use light colored bronzer. Or you can use some power stuff for your face. (not too much) Ask someone at Bath & Body Works.

Answer 2

Try to avoid soda if possible. Drinking WATER is the best way to promote healthy skin; you should see results within a week and your skin will probably continue to get better from then on.
Start eating more fruits and veggies; stay away from greasy stuff (not saying you can't EVER have it, but try to cut down).
Try an oil-free makeup; sounds like you need to get a few shades lighter anyway, so you might as well go buy a new bottle. Neutrogena worked well for me (and it's cheap). When applying your makeup, use a sponge instead of your hands (your hands have tons of oil and dirt on them even if you wash them beforehand). Make sure to replace the sponge every month or so.
Try not to touch your face excessively throughout the day, as this can also lead to oil and dirt being transferred onto your skin, which leads to breakouts.
And lastly, try a good facewash and lotion - I use Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser and Daily Moisturizer - it keeps my skin really clear!

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

People will tell you in a minute not o teat pizza chocolate etc but honestly after going to school for cosmeotology and to be estinician sorry i am tyoing fast i learned that what you put in you body will not so much as cause the acne as what you don't you should eat a balanced diet and drink more than your 8 glasses of water you should drink water(is the key to good clear skin) based on you wieght ck the internet webmd to find out how much. and wahs your face before bed and remove all makeup etc. use gentle soap mineral make up or go to a store lik MAC and have someone help you with chosen a bronzer for the summer and some nice glosses for you lips.

you can usea toner, mositurize, scrubs and exfoliators but you could aslo find a local hair school to get a facial - this bring all the pimples to a head and then you can take care of you skin you self try dove all in one wash cloths good luck

Answer 4

I have the same problem as you.

First of all make sure that you are drinking lots of water. It will keep your skin healthy. Also try not to eat greasy foods such as french fries and other fried foods i was told that it can cause breakouts
Sometimes you cant cover up a pimple or zit but try concealer over your foundation then brush powder over it.

I am also involved in sports. I have found out that sweat can cause me to break out more. Therefore make sure once you get done with your sport that you go home and wash your face.

If you do get a pimple here or there use a spot treatment gel(found at drugstores) containing salycadic(idk how to spell it) acid in it.

There is no way to lighten your makeup though so you just need to go buy new makeup to match your color. Sorry.

Hope this helped!

Answer 5

Okey, i had the same problem. I know once i tell you this you are going to be like "what?!?!?"(maybe) but just trust me.
Special birth control will prevent acne.(from personal experience)
i know girls that take it b/c of their acne.i take it b/c of my diabetes but i never got a zit after i took it and i use to be like you.
You need to talk to a dermatogolist also.

What i was explained to do is get these face wipes to wipe w/ before you get sweaty w/ sports. The last thing you want to do is wear makeup while you get sweaty. It makes everything worse.
After you get sweaty, then put your make up on. All i can recomend is that you use cover up and anything that will work in the mean-time.
I heard that scrubs will only make things worse. Theres stuff at walmart that comes with like 5 things in a pack for acne. What you do is follow the directions and use it in order and that should help.
You need something that will 1st open up your pores, and then something else that will take away your acne and then something else that will close your pores.
i recomend the tanning bed ( and do it w/o makeup on) and that will make your skin a little darker and that may help also.
As i got older i was told to drink alot of cranberry juice and vitamin C.

Good luck!
Leesha.

Answer 6

Drink lots of water. Exercise, and cleanse your face after to eliminate bacteria and sweat. If you can, don't wear makeup while working out. This will prevent the makeup from getting trapped in your pores when you sweat.
Harsh scrubs irritate breakouts. Try Glycolic Foaming Face wash by Mario Badescu (http://mariobadescu.com/productDetail.asp?ProductID=204). You'll get the necessary exfoliation without stripping and irritating your skin.
Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals is a great foundation for acne irritated skin. They have light shades for fair skin types.
Think positive and good luck!

Answer 7

Calm down. You only have three zits. You are obsessing too much. I don't think you get too much acne so you don't have to stick to these acne prevention routines strictly. I do b/c I break out every week. Just relax. Stress also causes acne. Wash your face with a light cleanser. Only wear light makeup and don't put it on on before working out. When your face sweats, makeup will get clogged in your pores and cause breakouts. Good luck. Relax and don't look at the mirror too much.

Answer 8

Try using Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Wash. It works quickly by penetrating deep inside the pore to unblock trapped dirt and oil to treat and prevent acne. It is oil-free, maximum strength, non-comedogenic and dermatologist tested. Drink 8 cups of water everyday to flush out impurities from wihtin and to have a glowing complexion.

Answer 9

Juice somethings are more healthy like....(100% Grape Juice,
100% Orange Juice, Superfood(tm) Energy/Health Drink.It is yummy,You can buy this at Sam's. This lady at Sam's She told me that this helped me lose 35 Pounds in Two Months.
Foods: Granola Bars, Salads, Lots Of Fruit and Veggies!!
Stay Away from things like McDonalds, High in Fat foods.
If it still isn't working try Lubridem( It cleans out your pores real good) or Proactive!!

Answer 10

Taking a vitamin B complex is supposed to lessen acne, also drink a lot of water.
MAC coverup is my favorite--it has the highest concentration of color and there are so many shades you're sure to find one that matches. make sure you wash your face before you work out (so that makeup and dirt doesn't get into the pores that open up as you sweat), and wash afterwards so the sweat doesn't clog your pores either. Use a mild wash, like Cetaphil.
