    Ever get a pimple right near your nose and it freaken hurts so bad that if you touch it your eyes water? And it's one of those kinds that don't have a head on it so there is nothing you can do with it but wait till it works it's self out. Or risk making it look even more red and painful?

    32 years old and I'm still going through puberty.


    What's your acne treatment? Any suggestions?

    DOWN WITH ZITS!

    I used to get them really bad when I was growing up...then I started having sex...and they disappeared...except for a few days right before my cycle. THANK GOD. They are a pain.

    I don't do anything with them...I just try and avoid touching them...they'll go away eventually.

    I just had one of those bad boys. Boy did it hurt. And I could feel it well before it showed up. But I left it alone and it finally went away

    I had one inside my nose last month... whenever I touched it, it felt like an incredibly sore bruise, I could barely even blow my nose without my eyes watering from the pain. Blarg, thank goodness I don't get very many pimples

    I normally get one big painful pimple right before my period. This time it hit me right on the side of my nose. Most times I do get them they don't have a head on them and they are under the skin. Hurts like crazy.

    Maybe I should be having more sex if that helps keep them away. I'll mention it to my husband. lol

    You get pimples because of hormonal imbalances. Sex certainly helps LOL.

    Dry Portland cement will dry skin until it cracks and draws blood.
    Wonder if it'd work for drying out pimples?
    Volunteers?

    I use all the normal acne products with the Sycillic Acid and Nature's Cure pillss, it works pretty well I guess
    sometimes I get breakouts though

    Light does help. My skin is healthier in the summer. I could sit in front of a lamp for 10 minutes. I better keep my eyes closed or I'll be blind.

    I know my hormones are out of balance. The've always been off. When I used to take bc my skin was better.

    Maybe toothpaste might work just as good as the cement idea.

    ugh, i hate it, i'm 20 and i STILL break out. although its far more mild than when i was in highschool or, worse yet, middle school. lately i've been breaking out on my face, but much more common is for me to break out on my shoulders. at least that can be covered with a shirt.

    Those are bad, but i think the WORST are ones that are right by your lip (no they aren't cold sores).

    i put tooth paste on them before i go to sleep... sometimes i put ice on them to bring down the swelling... i make sure i use toner/astringent and i dont touch them.

    I used to and haven't had one for a long time ever since i started drinking carrot juice and banana smoothies and wheatgrass shots...and limited my white flour and sugar intake. It's the carrot juice that's suppossed to be super good for your complexion. Carrot juice int he blender with vanilla rice dream 'ice cream' and almonds is the bomb.
