Acne
Acne is a common problem that many teenagers face. It can be very embarrassing for many teenagers who are at a very delicate time in their lives. With the many pressures teenagers face, acne can be an added burden that interferes with a young person’s self esteem and confidence. For some of us, acne was not much of a concern throughout our youth. I was one of the fortunate, clear-skinned girls in my high school. I never had to use any acne treatment or use topical medicine for outbreaks. I did get the occasional pimple and I always had the noticeable breakout right before a special event. The blemish usually appeared right on the center of my nose or right in the middle of my forehead. The blemish would sprout on the morning of a special event. TIP It’s not just for your teeth There is still no scientific basis nor findings yet that discusses how the toothpaste can actually lessen, if not cure, the spread of acne. In fact, it is one of the most widely used acne home remedy by people! It might be a result of trial and discovery that made the toothpaste serve not only to clean the teeth but also as an unusual acne home remedy! To use it, just apply it directly to your zits before sleeping. This is believed to help control the swelling overnight. Just make sure that it is not the gel but the paste. I had an acne breakout right before the Junior Miss Pageant and I think that this may have contributed to my being cut out of the final ten. It may have been the fact that I’m five-two and a little clumsy, but I like to think that the acne was the cause of the Junior Miss elimination. I may have gotten the acne because I was under stress. The blemish disappeared once I found out that I was cut. I wasn’t the least bit nervous before my prom, but suddenly, there it was. I found a huge blemish right on the tip of my nose. Covering it up with makeup only made it worse. I didn’t let the spot on my nose ruin my night, but it was so big that my eyes were beginning to cross, being drawn to the bright-red dot. I had a good sense of humor about it. I did put my gown back on a week later to get pictures taken. I wonder if I can crop my prom date into the pictures. Acne or no acne, I still had a great time. Today, I find myself in a new situation when it comes to unsightly blemishes. I’m approaching middle age and I use moisturizer. What I’m finding is that my skin tends to be a bit oily and I am having acne breakouts after moisturizing my face. I am very irritated that I need to combat wrinkles and acne at the same time. One of the things to look forward to as you get older is the absence of acne. I guess I still have a lot of growing up to do. |
