Acne Tips

Hi,

I have conquered all the zits I used to get and at first glance, I have really
clear skin. But, there are blackheads in my nose, on my chin and just above my
nose on my forehead (my T zone). I have tried absolutely everything there is to
try if it is available over the counter at any store within 50 miles of my
house. Still they are there. I have become obsessed with them lately. My husband
thinks it’s like some sort of compulsion. I will spend literally hours a night
in the bathroom squeezing and picking my face. I get lots of them out
everynight, but it isn’t really doing me any good. If squeezing and picking did
any good, I would be free of them by now. The only thing I accomplish by doing
this is making the skin on my nose peel and the skin on my chin feel sore and
irritated. I am going to totally ruin myself if I don’t find some sane way to
get them out of my face. I can’t get anyone in my family to really think it’s a
big deal, they all say they can’t even see them. But believe me, they are there.

When they come out, they are white to off-white and have a paste like texture.
Some are fat and some are skinny. They are all totally disgusting to me.
I would appreciate if anyone could give me some advice. I always had perfect
skin as a teenager, when I should have been going through this. I have gotten
bad only as an adult.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hi,

That is hard, when you job takes so much out of you and it shows on your
skin! Unfortunately, like everything in life their is usually no short, easy
way to good health. I really like the advice that _yoganinja@aol_
(mailto:yoganinja@aol) gave about eating right, exercing, and de-stressing,
and daily
face care. Those are the foundations for health and healthy skin.

There is only one shortcut that I know of that can help you with the "eating
right" part. Like most of us, I’m sure its almost impossible for you to eat
the recommended 9-11 fruits and vegetables a day. The supplement that my
doctor recommended actually takes 17 fruits and vegetables, juices and
dehydrates them, and puts them in a capsule. This has done wonders for my
skin.
Write me if you want more info.
