I really like this kid and he noticed this zit on my nose ): I kinda got the swelling down but how can I make the redness go away? I've tried so many acne medicines ):

lost and lonely agony auntfor one keep your face clean use warm water to open the pores and dont use just plain hand soap, you should be using some sort of gliceren soap that is the best, and after drying your face apply some witchhazel, you can buy that in any store its in the isle with the rubbing alchole, and such, also keep your hands off your face, your hands have alot of oil in them and the fact that you touch everything, and then touch your face your transfering all the guck, and oils from whatnots, to your face, there is also rubbing alchol and also you can use proxiced on your face, just keep that out of the hair areas, especailly the proxicide , if your acne problems is severe then maybe talk with your doctor for perscription medications,,, but keep your hands off your face, and dont squeeze on your face, that just makes it red and then you will have scares and sores, on there,. and thats not a pretty site, good luck

You need to feel good about yourself.If others don't like you.who cares?Start developing this attitude.I am helping you out so that you feel good about yourself.

Okie.Here we go lil sis.But I would still say check if you are allergic to anything with your doctor before you do it.

I am assuming you either have combination skin or oily skin.A combination skin is where your T-Zone(forehead,nose,above lips,chin is oily).In case of an oily skin your entire face is oily

* Drink 2 litres of water daily(Religiously)

* Popping the black heads is a huge no no.Thats the reason your nose has become like this

* Acne can be caused by stress,dandruff on your head or at your age plain hormones

*Its just a phase and believe me it will pass.not too much to worry

* Keep your head clean.You get over the counter dandruff shampoos.If you do have dandruff Use them twice a week.Apply normal shampoos the rest of the week

* Do not stress yourself.Go for long walks,spend time in the park or do anything that chills you out.

* Every night before you sleep apply ripe tomato juice on your face.Keep it on for an hour.Do not talk to anyone during this period.meditate if you wish.As the skin may get wrinkles if you try to move your lips as the juice is drying off

*wash it off with gentle soap.you can also wash it off with 1 tbsp of orange peel powder.Its easy to make.Collect the orange peels.Dry them in the sun.When they have dried out fine,grind them in a processor and store it in an air tight glass container.Make it only for about 15 days.After which you need to make it fresh again.

*Never go to bed with make up or any lotion on your face.The skin needs to breathe.

*Thrice a week EXFOLIATE.Grind a walnut or an apricot.you get St.Ives Apricot/Walnut scrubs too.Mix it with water.Gently very gently rub it in your face.Move the tips of your fingers in circles.Gently probe the blackheads with the mixture.The blackheads won't come out in a single day.If you do it regularly for a month you will begin to see the difference

*Do not clean your face 10 times a day with soap.Wash twice with soap.Use face wipe tissues for the rest of the day.

*Please Please stop using all the creams you can find on your face.

All the best!!If after a month all this doesn't seem to create a difference consult a dermatologist.Also Please check for allergies before you try anything.

Good old ripe tomato from the kitchen is the right recipe for Acne.I am assuming you have combination skin.meaning the
