I have a bumpy forehead full of zits?

Question

My forehead is full of zits. It's not red or anything, but it looks extremely bumpy. I want to know how to get rid of them and prevent them.

Is there anything I can use at home? If so please tell me.

I don't really want to spend a lot of money.

Thank you! =D

Answer 1

use toothpaste  

Answer 2

use Clean & CLear 100% of ppl lost acne in one day you can but it anywhere

Answer 3

Exfoliate! If they're not red and inflamed, it means they're just caused by clogged pores. Try using sugar as a gentle exfoliant.

Answer 4

make sure you wash your face with a gentle face wash and exfoliate at least twice a week. facial masks will also help.

if you have bangs, keep them OFF your face. the oils from your hair contribute greatly to acne.

Answer 5

I would go to see a dermatologist. I have had this happen to me before and after a couple of weeks, they went away on their own. However, if you have had them for a while, I would make an appt. to see the doctor.

Answer 6

Wash your face with Cow Poo. Trust me it works. The more fresh it is the more it works.

Answer 7

1) Clean & Clear's Advantage Acne Control Kit.

2) Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Complete Acne Therapy System.

I'd recommend those two products because they really worked for me and I was very satisfied with the results. They're not too cheap, but I think they're worth the money.

Answer 8

neutrogena oil free acne wash works wonders. i've been using it for over a year and my face is really clear. make sure any face wash you use is oil-free. if you want to spend a little more money you can try pro-active. i've never used it but my friend says it works.

if that all fails see if your health insurance will cover a dermatoligist. you can get generic brand perscriptions for a low price.

Answer 9

Rub sugar on your face or use the Neutrogena Acne Control kit.

Answer 10

nope you cant do anything at home, you have to buy thos prooducts like clean and clear.

Answer 11

rubbing alcohol sometimes works to dry them out but be sure to moisturize, preferably w/ an organic or natural product that won't irritate the skin even more.

Me and my friends have had some luck with Clear Acne.

Answer 12

u need 2 wash ur face a lot  

Answer 13

well i had that problem so i clipped my fringe away from my face as much as i could and used clinique products which really helped :) they do cost a bit but last and have good results

Answer 14

I agree with Brit, go see a dermatologist and a course of antibiotics will probably help.

Answer 15

I had a brother like that, he banned grease food and sugar from his diet.  BAM!     ALL GONE   2wks!     (no chips, sugar drinks, icecream, candy, pizza, cheese etc.)    Just plain old regular food (baked, boilded, meat) (fruits, vegetables, nuts, low fat yogurt, lowfat milk) water.

Answer 16

Try using biore, but make sure you find one thats right for your skin type and don't touch your forehead. Make sure you always keep your face moisturized so it doesn't get dry and sensitive and havinf spf in the lotion is better. Hope this helps.

Answer 17

I had the same thing when I overdosed on sugar. As soon as I stopped eating candy and drinking soda, and switched to Splenda to sweeten my drinks, they all went away

Answer 18

I am a Registered Nurse and I specialize in skin care and teen acne.

Your question is very broad and you need to get professional advice. I will explain why it's a broad question!

Your age plays a role! How old are you? Do you always have breakouts?

However, acne can result from several factors such an increase in hormone levels. In males testosterone or androgens. In females, androgens respectively. The increase in androgen levels can stimulate the oil glands to become enlarged and thus more oil production is produced. An increased oil production can clog the pores with oil or sebum ( white thick substance) which cause the cell walls of the pores in the skin to breakdown. This process allows bacteria to form and thus breakouts develop.

Genetics may also be a cause. It is a myth that greasy food or chocolate causes breakouts.

However, using make-up sponges that are not changed or washed often can contaminate the pores with bacteria which may develop into acneic breakouts.

If you are a teenager ( which I assume that you are) your hormones play a definite role in your breakouts.

If you have severe breakouts than you might need medication. There are many factors.

The most important thing is that you need products that are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every age group has different products appropriate for them. If you are young than you need milder products as to not dry out your beautiful young skin.

The problem with commercial skin products is that they are manufactured for MASSES OF PEOPLE and are not specifically made for different peoples' needs.

Your skin type is different than mine and your age differs from mine so how is it logical that we both use the same skin product for breakouts. We need different strengths of cleansers and toners. Do you kind of understand what I am getting at?

Here is my STRONG SUGGESTION for you. I refer all my students and patients to this website:

www.aboutyourskincare.com

You need to consult with professionals and on this website YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS FOR FREE AND A SKIN EXPERT/PHYSICIAN WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. It would be a shame if you dont take advantage of this free service.

Lastly, they have incredible products for breakouts and they make them specifically for every kind of skin type. That means that if your breakouts are more severe than mine, than while we both will buy the same product yours will have stronger ingredients than mine will.

They have a mild glycolic acid cleanser that's great for your type of skin and also a DRYING LOTION ( I have 3 bottles) that you put directly on your breakouts and the next day it's gone. It's truely magic in a bottle.

A basic guideline for properly taking care of your skin is this ( now if you're a young girl you will need fewer products than this):

Night time:

1. Exfoliate the skin

2. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser

3. Mild Glycolic Acid Toner ( cleans off the excess debris and balances the PH level of the skin).

4. Drying Lotion used only on breakouts

5. Moisturizer

Morning:

1. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser

2. Moisturizing cream

The above is a standard you may need to only use one or two products. Visit: www.aboutyourskincare.com

As I suggested and click on the ASK FOR FREE section send them an email and you will get free expert skin care advice.
