I have a bad case of Eczema, which is really bad dry skin. Lately I've been having it under control, I esspecially didn't have to deal with dry skin since I started trying to get waves. My hair is always moisturized so I don't have to worry about dry skin or dandruff at all. Now I have another issue because of this.....

I'm getting pimples and red bumps around my nose/cheeks. It isn't horrible or anything but for a good lookin bright skinned n**** it kinda stands out. I'm not sure what's causing this problem.

a. It's either my teenage hormones and I'm just growing up and getting the normal acne that other teens get...but that kinda seems odd for someone who has eczema

b. I'm putting to many products in my hair. I put in Coconut Oil once every other day and I put in Carrot Cream every night, and I put in a good amount. This might be clogging my pores and causing me to get pimples..I'm not sure.

c. I haven't been drinking enough water to flush my system.

I'm tellin yall I never EVER had to wash my face before I started takin good care of my hair. I always had dry skin and I didn't even have to worry about gettin pimples..but this changed once I started takin good care of my hair. Now I'm washin my face 2-3 times a day.

Do you guys have any Advice or Suggestions for me so I can clear up my face? I'm tryin to hit it off with the ladies and these damn pimples ain't helpin!

Part of becoming an adult is facial care. Go check out my movement thread. But I'll answer you right here. You gonna have to wash at least 3 times a day and then medicate with Benzoyl Peroxide cream/gel. And then moisturize. I recommend You start using Cetaphil for everything aside from the Benzoyl. I would recommend just buying a tube. Its sold everywhere. And don't pick at that sh*t. You'll have scars. Let it heal and medicate on its own. If you get white tips on them heat up a needle and gently pop it open and drain it of the puss. When blood comes out stop and cleanse and medicate.

And drink a gallon of water a day minimum. You want to flush all impurities out.

I guess it was an automatic reaction to seeing a ugly pimple.

Willie, can you please post a link to your movement? I want to see if there are any alternatives to Benzoyl Peroxide, because last time i used that my face broke out in hives/small little bumps.

Cop some neutragena use it twice a day and get some noxema triple clean pads and use that after you've wash your face with the neutragena. Don't drink soda. Drink fruit juice and water.

Its the thread called the Skrilla Blah Blah Blah Movement. I'm allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide so I don't personally use it but check and see the percent of Benzoyl Peroxide in the tube. Anything over 2.5% is unnecessary and you're spending extra money on  nothing. If you still break out then you're allergic to it and need to pick up a cleaning astringent like Sea Breeeze with Salycic Acid.

Yo, if ur still havin face problems, consider this:

1. Are u cleanin ur bedsheets and pillow sheets consistantly? Every dermatologist has told me that is a big contributor to acne and breakouts

2. Are u gettin sufficient rest and diet?
 
3. how old are u? u right. It could be age because teenagers go through so much physical changes, their hormonal levels are high which results in an imbalance of natural oils.
 
If none of the above don't apply to u, seek out a Dermatologist immediately before ur acne worsens. Cetephil is a nice face aid but i think that Pro Active is THE MOST effective facial medication against severe acne.
 
Ps, U could also be havin an allergic reactions to the products u are using. This is more reason to visit a dermatologist, physician asap. Find out the root of ur problem.

well i had the worst eczma around my face especially mouth
i suggest you use....
 
Hydroquartizone- it like a cream that comes in a small tube
 
Sudocream- this will dry up the rash coz i had a nasty one which bliatered out of the blue, (down there)  I put that on and i was fine in days
 
BUT FOR YOUR EVERYDAY MOISTURIZER USE E45 CREAM THAT IS MUCH BETTER THAN ANY COCOA BUTTER OR ANYTHING BUT GET THAT 1 FOR EVERYDAY AND SUDOCREAM TO DRY UR PROBLEMS
