Hey frnds.. please help I have started breaking out again.. sorry for d nasty picture. but my cheeks are only problem area where I start breaking out again and again. and this time the they are really big in size and few are white n few are red.. they take almst a week to reduce there size if I dnt touch thm at all.
I am currently using Neutrogena facewash, Neutrogena sunscreen spf50 and cetaphil OS at night.. plse help as I really dnt know what to do.

I would stop using both the Neutrogena products, they're NOT non comedogenic. you could use 15 % tea tree oil on the zits, applied with an ear bud. Cetaphil OS is a decent face wash, you could continue its use. And I suggest you see a doctor and tell him or her whatever products you are using and your skin history.

Your skin looks pretty dry. The skin can also reproduce to much oil if it gets dry or dehydrated to take care of itself. Drink lots of water. I agree with Ame stop the Neutrogena face wash most likely it has salicylic acid and can be too drying for the skin. Agree on spot treat tee tree oil on breakouts. Also keep pillowcases clean if your a side sleeper. Wash at least every day or other day. I have broken out on my cheeks when I don't wash my pillowcases or make up brushes.

Yes tea tree oil is safe for oily and sensitive skin, I have the same. If you're worried, just test it on a small area before applying it on all your zits. It really works well.

Hey hun you just ask me this I told you to get tee tree oil to spot treat with or dilute it and use it all over,and neutrogena deep clean cream cleanser does not dry your skin out ,if you can get to a dermatologist I would recommend it.

You can make your own by diluted 100 percent tee tree oil and distilled water just shake it before use ,any brand will be fine if it says 100 percent pure.

It's safe but it is mixed with other things like castor oil it may irritate your skin but I can't say for sure hun it depends on your skin

Traci L.
And that one is just for spot treatment not your entire face ok.

Traci - great. thnx... should I continue using Neutrogena?
Jul 8, 2014
Traci L.
Yes you can still use it and use a tee tree toner and tee tree spot treatment the salicylic acid in the cleanser helps to keep your pores clean and the tee tree kills surface bacteria,

I use tea tree oil for spot treatment and it has really really helped me.. Body shop tea tree oil was bit strong for me ( I diluted it).. I used khadi tea tree oil and it worked wonders for me.. Its an indian brand and available online.
