I am currently dealing with a super annoying patch of closed comedones on the side of my face. This cropped up about 2 weeks ago and I cannot seem to get any improvement. Using Peter Thomas Roth anti-aging cleansing gel daily, Murad Pore Reform every couple days, Origins charcoal mask twice a week. Suggestions? Solutions? This is making me miserable as no level of coverage with makeup can hide the texture problem on my face...HELP!

I'm no expert but all th products combined could be irritating you're skin or you may be allergic to one of those? I have oily and sensitive skin so I buy 90% aloe very gel which is quite cheap and I add a few drops of tea tree oil which I got from the body shop, mix it together and use that as a moisturizer as I can't deal with too much oil on my skin. If your products are new to you they may be the problem but if you've been using them for a while, maybe it could be your pillow case.

If it is your pillow case and if you're like me and can't be bothered to change it so often, you can use a scarf and use that to cover it every night, flippibg it over every night then putting it into the washing machine.

From what I can see they look cystic and that area on your jaw line is usually a hormonal breakout area which could be the reason they area taking so long to go away, cystic breakouts usually respond better to benzoyl peroxide products, and also try tee tree oil as a spot treatment
