Pimples and Blemishes

u hate them??
me too...
already have 2 of acne on my face..siot!!
so, I want share something to avoid dat WOMEN'S ENEMY

to prevent it
1.Keep your face clean and don't overscrub it. This will only irritate your skin and make you more prone to breakouts. Wash your face gently twice a day with antibacterial or mild soap, perhaps three times a day for acne prone skin like me. Do not use harsh soaps and fragrances as they may aggravate pimples. can use ACNE-AIDS (no fragrance)..got it from tesco Watson

2.To avoid transferring bacteria and germs, clean your pillowcase, washcloths, towels, make-up brushes frequently. Try washing your make-up applicators in antibacterial soap or clarifying shampoo.

3.keep your phone mouthpiece and writing instruments away from your chin and clean them often.there all have germs...OMG!!

4.Avoid wearing heavy make-up and always wash it off before going to bed (I alwayz lazy to do it)..TIPS: use baby wipes,if u also lazy like me..hehe.tired n wants to go to sleep je. Buy make-up specifically designed for your skin type and throw it away after it's expiration date.

5.Wash your hands frequently and make a conscious effort to avoid touching your face during the daytime hours. This is when you're most likely to do it and you may not realize that it's a habit.

6.It's best to keep your anxiety level down and get your beauty rest. When you're under stress, do not neglect your skin care routine. Take the time for preventive maintenance or your pimples will return with a vengeance.that why women get more acne during exam time or stress!!..i hate STRESS

Stopping Pimples and Blemishes
1.Use the preventive maintenance above, along with some pimple drying techniques to shorten the life of your blemishes and breakouts.

2.If your skin is oily, use an over the counter cleanser that contains salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to start the drying process.I using BREVOXYL (suggestion from aaina). If you're experiencing one of those painful "under the skin, cystic" pimples, put a warm compress on it to drain it first, then dry it up with benzoyl peroxide. Sometimes putting a small piece of tape on your blemish overnight will help draw out the fluid and infection.

3.Another overnight home remedy for zapping a zit is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. also done it before but do not put it too much, the toothpaste will dry out ur skin..Calamine lotion will have the same drying effect.

4.It's not recommended to squeeze a pimple, but I still do it..geram bile nmpk..hehe. While doing this makes you more prone to scarring and skin discolorations, sometimes it's the only fast way to drain it. If you're at the point where you feel the need to squeeze, consult your dermatologist for treatment.
