I'm a female teen and have trouble with breakouts. It's never been horrible, but for some reason, my skin just broke out. It's worse than it's ever been! My face is covered in red bumps, and I can't do anything. All the over-the-counter products make it worse, because it's sensitive. I need a home remedy to relieve redness, but that's super gentle. And post-acne marks are a problem, too...

  1. There is no quick fix for acne.  Your doctor may recommend some prescription medication.  Keep your face very clean.  Drink plenty of water.  Eat a nutritious diet and get enough sleep.  Try to reduce the stress in your life.  Probably the most useful and effective things you can do are to apply hot compresses to pustules and cysts and never to pick or squeeze pimples. Playing with or popping pimples, no matter how careful and clean you are, nearly always makes bumps stay redder and bumpier longer.   Here are a few informative links with additional home treatment ideas.

  2. You should see a Dermatologist about your face they will be able to help you find something that will work for your sensitive acne prone skin.  

    I would be afraid to use any sort of home remedy on my skin because, it might make it worse.
