Any tips for the face to be radiant and pimple free?

I have really lots of pimples on my forehead and my facial tone looks dark. Any simple way to get rid of them?|||Take plenty of raw vegetables and fruits and do deep breathing exercises. You can also consult a skin specialist.|||what people fail to realize about skincare, the old sayings you are what you eat, and it%26#039;s written all over your face are true. if you are eating greasy fried foods, lots of chips pizza, drinking lots of soda even chocolate it%26#039;ll show up as zits, breakouts. So eat more fruits and veggies, get plenty of rest and drink water like it%26#039;s going out of style. That being said sometimes you need help...and I suggest Clinique skin care regimen. It worked better for me than Proactiv, and I my skin actually %26quot;felt good%26quot;|||Chemical peels are the way to go. They range from being very light with no visible flaking to peeling. Find a good medical spa and ask about their training. Peels will remove the accumulated dead skin which clogs pores and makes the skin look dull and lifeless.|||as much as one doesn%26#039;t want to believe it acne is sometimes linked to diet...so you must have the willpower to avoid foods like chocolate which contain stimulants and sugar(carbo) whcih causes one to breakout...at least in my case..





secondly drink plenty of water to flush out impurities





thirdly face hygiene..keep it clean and refrain from touching...do not wash too many times like over 3 times as that will lessen your oil on your face which makes your face produce more oil and cause more breakouts





lastly stress does affect it to some extent as it causes hormone imbalances so stay happy





those are the basic stuff..


hope your acne gets better and be patient...|||read just the other day on here about cider vinegar..haven%26#039;t tried it though. I personally take vitamin C when I have an outbreak, it%26#039;s a fix-it for me, as well as a mineral clay mask product on the spot. I like the Zia brand (found in Fred Meyer, Bartell, or health food sections). What kind of cleaning products are you using?? I have used them all!! ProActiv, all the antibiotics from the dermatologist to Acutane...found that Philosophy%26#039;s Purity is a Great product for me!





Good Luck : )





Hope that helps : )|||PIMPLES


Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin鈥檚 pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one鈥檚 parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.


The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.





GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.





1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .





2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.





3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don鈥檛 when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.





4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic


quality.





5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.





6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.





8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.





9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and


pimple scar.





10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.





11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.





12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and


yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.





13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.





14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.





15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.





16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.





17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.





Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.|||Try drinking 1 cup a day of aloe vera juice for at least 2 weeks to see results.

What is the difference between a blackhead and a pimple?

They are both clogged pores right? Then how are they different? Is a pimple the same thing but gets infected?|||Yes, a pimple is a blackhead that gets infected. The lining of the pore gets weak and breaks. Lots of white blood cells flood the area to attack what they think is the foreign invader. The white blood cells is what forms the pus that you see with pimples.|||A blackhead is a yellowish or blackish bump or plug on the skin. A blackhead is a type of acne vulgaris. It is caused by excess oils that have accumulated in the sebaceous gland%26#039;s duct. The substance found in these bumps mostly consists of keratin and modified sebum (an oily secretion of the sebaceous gland), which darkens (resembling dirt) as it oxidizes. While A pimple is a result of a blockage of the skin%26#039;s pore. It can be a pustule or papule.|||Exactly, a pimple is infected. Also dont listen to Diety, blackheads ARE easier to get rid of. One simple push and their gone, you dont even have to break the skin. While pimples, you have to break the skin if you want to pop it (which you shouldnt because you%26#039;ll probably just reinfect the area) will leave scars.|||A pimple is a clogged pore. A blackhead is a pimple that has collected dirt on top of it, making it appear dark. It tends to be dried out compared to pimples, too.|||Blackhead:

Nothing is wrong with you. What makes all young people feel insecure about their looks is their lack of security in who they are. The image you see in the mirror cannot ever reflect the heart mind and soul of the entire person you are.





Don%26#039;t let the media make you feel bad. No human is perfect, in weight, size, complexion, ethics, morals, or intelligence. We all have one saving grace, we can love. Do that as best you can and you won%26#039;t ever feel bad about yourself.|||How do stars get flawless skin? Makeup, airbrushing.. more makeup.

Now, to have good skin what you do to the outside of your body will only go so far. Good nutrition, taking a good multi-vitamin, drinking plenty of water, etc. is important to minimize toxins in your body. The best skincare system in the universe will not do a darn thing if you eat loads of junk food and don%26#039;t drink enough water.





If you do get a sudden breakout, one of the best fixes I read about is to put hemaroid cream on the zit; it will help to reduce the swelling and reddness. I was very skeptical but I%26#039;ve tried it and it really works. :o)

How can I get rid of or at least reduce the size of a big red pimple?

Oh btw it%26#039;s not swelled anymore cuzz I used a teabag to reduce the swelling.|||Hi there! well do not worry it is not infected it is just gona burst very soon! u can use tooth paste to dry it out at night, ! and to cover it up first use some sun protection and then with cover up put a little bit on it and done! dont touch it let it go away on its own believe me!:) good luck!!!=)|||Some people like to pop them when they%26#039;re white, although dermatologists discourage that. If you MUST pop it, my dermatologist once squeezed lightly with Q-tips, pricked it with a clean needle, and put some medication on it...although I wouldn%26#039;t try that, because she is a professional who%26#039;s been trained for that haha.





(If you%26#039;re a girl) If you have pure mineral powder make up, you can use that for coverage, because it is healthy and won%26#039;t clog pores or irritate your skin, in most cases. (Bare Minerals might, because it has bismuth, so I recommend Everyday Minerals instead).





You really cannot make it disappear overnight in most cases, but any acne medicine (just the drugstore variety) with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide can treat it if it%26#039;s infected and make it go away faster.





Best of luck to you!|||yeh i need the same thing!!

Secondly, you should stop looking because





A) its photoshoped


B) TONS of make up that makes their face 1 inch thicker


C) no one has that great of a skin





have you seen stars liek Vanessa hudgens and Hayden Panettiere who%26#039;s a neutrogena model without make up? Lots of red spots and dark acne spots.|||depends on what kindof skin they have, everyone assumes that if you have acne that your skin is oily but that can not always be the case if you have sensitive skin you have to be extra careful about what you use and if your skin is dry you should moisturize often to stop pores from splitting and creating black heads and as for oily skin an alcohol based astringent usually works all ways you can get healthy looking skin:)

Hope that helps : )|||PIMPLES


Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin鈥檚 pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one鈥檚 parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.


The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.





GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.





1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .





2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.





3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don鈥檛 when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.





4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic


quality.





5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.





6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.





8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.





9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and


pimple scar.





10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.





11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.





12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and


yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.





13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.





14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.





15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.





16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.





17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.





Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.|||Try drinking 1 cup a day of aloe vera juice for at least 2 weeks to see results. It has a bitter taste, but it has done wonders for my skin b/c I use to break out real bad but when I started drinking that my skin started clearing up and people would ask me if I had makeup on b/c my skin looked flawless.

Best product to use to get rid of pimple scars?

I have some pimple scars on my forehead that I really want to get rid of. What is the best product that I can get from a store (like Walgreens/Walmart/etc) that can speed up the process?|||First, let%26#039;s be clear. Exposing unprotected skin to direct sunlight will NOT cure acne. When you expose your skin to the sun, you MUST use a sunblocking product. The problem with many sunscreen products is that they have ingredients in them that actually irritate acne. There is, however, some good news.





Today there are a variety of good, non-irritating, and non-comedogenic sunscreens on the market. These sunscreens are great moisturizers and excellent sunblockers. They help to prevent aging (think wrinkles) as well as help to protect the skin from drying. Drying can exacerbate oil production and make acne scars look worse and become more permanent.





Twice (at least) daily skin cleansing is essential to help prevent as well as treat acne. Hard scrubbing does not equal good skin cleansing. You need to remember that scrubbing your skin hard can actually CAUSE acne. The hard scrubbing that stimulates the sebaceous glands causes greater production of sebum and sebum is the big acne villain.





Gentle but thorough facial cleaning with a mild soap and using only your hands (no wash rag) at least twice every single day can help to prevent acne as well as help to heal acne. Don%26#039;t RUB your face either with a washcloth or with a towel. Gently wash your face and then pat it dry. Wait about a half hour and then apply moisturizers and/or acne medications.





There is nothing that you can eat that will cause a zit to form 鈥?not greasy foods like French fries, not carbonated drinks, not even chocolate. There is no food that causes acne. Now, the LACK of certain nutrients can certainly contribute to the acne problem. There%26#039;s no proof (for far) that the lack of nutrients actually causes acne, but there is proof that adding nutrients can help to clear acne. Eat fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, whole grain foods and take a daily multivitamin/mineral supplement.|||Pro Active , it works. It does work i didnt believe it at first but it actually worked.|||dont use proactive. it%26#039;a bad. try tea tree oil. but im not sure.
