I use products with salcylic acid in them and it helps.





I haven't tried proactiv, but it's for sale at wal-mart, so it might be worth a try.Im starting to get alot of pimples, i cover them with makeup but how do i stop it before it gets worse ??
Contrary to what many may think acne is not caused by eating chocolate or by caffeine. Rather it's a bacteria that causes it. The combination of this bacteria and dead skin cells clog your sebaceous (oil) glands which results in a pimple. Try not to wash your face too often (about twice a day is good), since then you will only be spreading more of these dead skin cells which could result in more acne.





Use a towel specifically for drying your face and have it washed, regularly.





One should expect acne when going through puberty since it involves hormones.
your making it worse by putting make up on it. I use stridex when i have break outs like from when its the time of the month! haha age really has nothing to do with it, im 15 as well . Eventually they will go away, so stop wearing like all that makeup, it ages you plus it makes it worse!!!
wash your face before you go to bed. and when you wake up.


your makeup should be oil-free and it would help


to have retinol in it.
If you don't want to give up the makeup, Clean and Clear has an anti acne product that is clear and covers the zit with layer of medication. You apply a thin layer and it dries quickly and you can apply makeup over the protective layer. I use that and use Neutrogena foundation. It has salicylic acid in it also. I also use Maybelline's concealor stick. It's a skinny stick that has salicylic acid in it as well. I hardly break out, but when I do have one, I use all of that and it clears up real quick.


Good luck!
Well, your probably going through a stage, mine don't go away either, but accept yourself for who you are. And if your parents had bad acne when they were littler its probably in your genes, but dont worry it will go away sometime. Try eating healthy too. and not junk food soda, etc.
less junk food, better exercise and when you go to sleep change pillowcases everyday or other day.





good luck chuck.
its funny that people say to use moisturizer and water and all that. I used to have acne and i went to the dermatologist and he told me to never use moisturizer or anything that will make my face moist (lol). He said that one of the three things that make acne worst was moisture, lol i forgot about the other three.
Maybe try Proactiv and when applying make up use good brands.
I heard eating a lot of choclate helps them appear.
It's perfectly normal to get them now...one word though: WATER!! It's real importatnt to keep urself hydrated. Along with that be sure to wear mineral makeup if you wear any...any type of makeup that is breathable is the best to stop real bad breakouts...Also, wash and moisturize ur face regularly. Be sure, that if you wear makeup, u wash it off every night..too much make up on the face causes breakouts if not washed properly..use, nice washes like neutrogena, biore, or clearisil..they r usually pretty cheap and work pretty well on the face...also, try to use oil free moisturizers....GOOD LUCK!
