Sudden Acne Breakout?

Aug 11, 2014

I almost never get breakouts. But recently I've been breaking out like crazy on my forehead and near my nose. School is starting soon, and I feel so self conscious! I haven't tried any new makeup either. Do you guys have any tricks to get rid of the acne?? Thank you!!

I drink about 4 cups a day! It's not really helping!

For my size it is, a doctor recommended 4 cups a day for me, instead of 8.

What's your "size"? If you're stressing, your going to break out worse ): Try not to. Wash your face earlier at night, eat real healthy, don't touch your face, and pull you're hair back as much as possible.

My size is 4'11 and 109lbs. The doctor said 4 cups a day is an adequate amount for me, but I will try to get up to 8 a day! And I normally wash my face around 9, so maybe 7-8? Thank you guys for your answers!

Have you gone on any diets? It sounds personal but if you have eaten more sweets than usual or eating healthier than usual can cause that o: I toke my weight and divided that by 2. And that result Is how many ounces I drink a day. There's 8 ounces in 1 cup c:

Tip: use warm water before you apply face wash, and after you use face wash use cold water to close the pores.
Also, most things that have a scent will typically break you out, stuff like pro-activ is okay. But if you have ever smelled Spectro-gel... Hope it helps c:

Washing your face 7-8 times will actually increase oil production in your skin which can exacerbate acne. Just wash in the morning and at night, avoid wearing any foundation or makeup to cover it, and get lots of sleep as well.

Thank you guys very much! @Jenna I have recently started eating healthier, now that I'm back on my normal diet, the acne does seem to be dissipating :) and thank you for the face wash tip! And @Shiro, do you mean washing it 7-8times in a row, or a day?

Try drinking 4 water bottles that's eggs I do. My size is very small I only weigh 96 , hight 4'11. Or just cut out sodas everything and just drink water when your thirsty or with food. Don't wash face a lot and don't switch up your face washes stick to one. Oh and try going to your drug store and get aloe vera gel it took my redness and shrunk my breakouts in like 2 hours.. ( the plant didn't work that good for me )
