It is about my skin. If you scroll down it's not that far back and then you can read it. I can type it all out again because it's long and I have a picture with it.

I'd go see a dermatologist. I've had something similar to that when I use a razor to shave my 'stache but it went away in a matter of a week. And I've had them around the side of my face and hairline that again went away on it's own after a couple weeks with daily cleansing. So for you to have it that long, I'd see a specialist

I have a feelig that's not acne I'd deffinently go see your GP or a derm. Is it painful or itchy at all?

Might be allergic reaction. I would use apple cider vinegar, witch hazel and green tea to wash your face. try doing a mask of oatmeal, lemon and honey until you can see a derm. feel better!! I uses to have the most sensitive skin and was so embarrassed about my reactions :(

If it is itchy or painful, I think it would worth a try to take a Benadryl or try the Benadryl cream.

Thanks everyone. I use witch hazel occasionally and my seaweed toner has witch hazel in it. I will try the apple cider as well. I will also consider seeing a dermatologist. In the meantime, has anyone used benzoyl peroxide? I've heard it opens the pore and kills any bacteria but because my skin is so sensitive I am cautious about using anything that will dry it out.

Lynzie and Raylene no it doesn't itch at all but when I put makeup on it is REALLY noticeable and then it gets dry which is why I exfoliate.

BP may be harsh for your skin right now because of your current skin reaction. I would also try organic cold pressed coconut oil for a ton of benefits. I would stay all natural until your dermatologist tells you if you are sensitive to ingredients in your current products (bring them with you too the appt!). oatmeal for now will be really soothing

Thank you so much Valeria! I will try what you said for sure. I have coconut oil on hand so I will try that. Thanks again :)

Too add- the green smoothie recipes are incredible for skin- they contain a big mixture of fruits and veg lots of recipes on the net. My sis has similar problems and the smoothie helped incredibly.

That's another thing to consider, not just what you put on your skin but what you put in your body, I'd research green foods and such. I hope it clears up :)

Have you used a mask? You need to extract that stuff out of your skin. When I get clogged pores I will use a mask (mint mask or glam glow) wash it off and then use a gentle cleanser and clarisonic afterward.

Yes Sara I have used masks. I try to extract the bigger bumps with a tool from sephora and that only pushes it deeper and causes it to become red. And Miiso I got a blender for Christmas and make a smoothie a day with lots of greens and also ginger and lemon which are supposed to be good for skin and inflammation. This is why I am so frustrated. I seem to have tried everything and nothing is working. I refuse to try proactiv after the reviews I read online. I called the derm near me but they are not accepting new patients right now and my old derm is over two hours away..
