Answer 1

we have the same problem! right now i'm using a tea tree soap to lighten the blemishes and to prevent break outs and i'm also applying a benzoyl peroxide gel. i'm not sure if this will work for you and if it will calm down your blemishes before friday, but this is what i'm using. but just to be sure, why not consult a dermatologist? it's your best bet.

Answer 2

Hi your skin and hormones change from time to time, and you will find that what you are used to using will make you break out more. Obviously if you body is run down then you will break out loads, Especially if your not eating and sleeping well. Your body is trying to cope and it cant. So unless you get back to sleeping well your skin will get worse. Have you ever considered your not sleeping well because your body his hungry you might not fell hungrey but you body is. Get use to eating at certain times of the day even if your not hungry, Try weetabix if you like them, there not fatty fill you up and gives you loads of energy.

In the mean time just wash your face with soap anytype or get Neutrogena 2 in one wash andmask, use the mask side of it when you fist get as this will dry the spots up and they should go down in a few days. dont moistures as I think this makes them worse and wash twice a day with just soap or water or use the wash side of the neutrogena nothing else. Then when you go to the party hopefully your skin will have nearly cleared up but use the mask side of the neutrogena before you go out and then moistuise and apply make up and there you go.

I know you cleanse tone and moisturies but this doesnt suit everybbodys skin and if you have skin like mine, I can moisturise but if I apply cleanesers and toners as well, I wake up with tones of spots. and maybe you pores have also gotten too clogged up as half the time I dont think th etoner even removes half of the cleanser for the skin, no matter how cheap or dear the product you use. So all i recommend is wash with a face wash or soap, and then moisturise, exfoliate with a facial srcb once or twice a week and also apply as face mask once or twice a week and then you will have clearer skin.

Answer 3

For some reason my skin is having loads of break outs as well. Maybe it the change in the weather. I use Sudocream (nappy rash stuff). Apply a thin layer before bed and you can see the redness has reduced in the morning.

Other that that you can get get tablets from the doctor, but not sure if these will help before friday.

If all else fails, clinque foundation offers a very good coverage. If your a lass of course xx

Answer 4

i have the same problem at the moment a breakout on my chin. Dermlogica products are really goods especially the clay cleaser and the medicated clearing gel. For a cheaper opition you could try clearasil blackhead scrub or clearasil four hours gel that reduces redness it has been working for me i put it before bed then when i wake up its all dried out.Try steaming your face and then applying a face mask calomine setting mask.
Its worth a try Good luck

Answer 5

I have the same problem. I have mild acne and I went to the doctors and my nurse prescribed for this Duac gel and it works very well. But over 2 months!!!! Your skin I don't think will calm down that quickly it took my skin longer than that anyway!

Answer 6

Hey you just need a good facial wash try the ones with micro beads in that clean and lift off the dead skin then use a gentle moisturizer to finish

Answer 7

Well, it could be the pillow you sleep on, or it could be the time of the month. but i would wash my pillow and stop wearing make up for till the big day, and just moisurise! :)

Answer 8

Clinique do a good anti-blemish night gel and it tends to clear skin overnight. hope it helps x

Answer 9

rubbing alcohol is great for making pimples smaller, almost over night. it also makes the epimples less red.just be sure to only put it on your pimples, if u put it on skin that is not infected it will dry your skin up. good luck!

Answer 10

No-one can be sure of the cause of this, I think you should go into boots, i'm sure they could recommend something for you.
