Lovely
I need a day time skin treatment and night time. I want to know what you guys think can suggest stuff to me. I have some tiny bit of acne around my cheeks and black heads on nose. Now I have a scar in the middle of my eyebrows help
Answer
I used home remedies with my acne. I started taking zinc for my acne. Here are some tips that might be helpful:
1) Tea Tree Oil
2) Lemon juice
3) Apple cider vinegar
4) Bamboo extract or Sarna lotion â good for rosacea, psoriasis, eczema
5) Bio Oil or BB cream for dark spots or scars
6) Toothpaste is very effective for acne leave on face for about 20 to 30 minutes then wash.
Applied lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to face or you can drink it through using it in water a few drops a day. Will help with both acne, and scars as well. Another way you can get rid of acne is by taking bamboo extract something I started when I had the problem really does work. Hope this works for you.
OR: Here are seven best methods to clear up blemishes.
Tea-Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is a popular home remedy for acne. An essential oil is diluted and applied topically to acne lesions. How is tea tree oil believed to work? Tea tree oil contains a constituent called terpinen-4-ol that's thought to be responsible for most of tea tree oil's anti-bacterial activity. Because tea tree oil can kill bacteria, applying topical tea tree oil to acne lesions is believed to kill Propionibacterium acnes, the skin-dwelling bacteria involved in acne.To treat mild, occasional breakouts.
How it works: Distilled from the leaves of an Australian shrub, tea-tree oil contains antibacterial and anti-microbial compounds called terpenoids that help kill the bacteria that, when trapped behind oil in a plugged pore, lead to acne breakouts. Try Burtâs Bees Herbal Blemish Stick ($8, burtsbees.com). A roller-ball tube makes for easy application.Studies testing tea-tree oil against the gold-standard acne treatment, benzoyl peroxide, have shown that while the latter works more quickly, tea-tree oil is equally effective over time. And it results in fewer annoying side effectsânamely, dryness and redness.
Sulfur
If you have sensitive skin.
How it works: A time-tested, gentle acne fighter, sulfur âacts like a sponge to draw oil out of blocked pores,â. This dries up pimples and keeps sebum production in check, helping to prevent future blemishes. Sulfur has a distinct smellâthink rotten eggs. Most preparations that use it contain a masking fragrance. However, to play it safe (and avoid scaring off coworkers), apply these products at night.
Salicylic Acid
To treat and soothe red, inflamed blemishes.Salicylic acid can have a calming, anti-inflammatory effect on pimples. âIt also breaks down the âcementâ between cells in clogged pores to help unplug them,â
Salicylic acid is less irritating than more potent treatments, so it may be better for those with dry skin. It also tends to work well on stubborn blackheads.
Retinoids
Nightly to prevent breakouts.
How they work: Retinoids, which include over-the-counter retinol and prescription-strength Retin-A, reduce acne by altering the oil chemistry on the skin. âThey help stop dense sebum from getting stuck within the pores,â says Gross. Without oil deposits, bacteria canât grow and cause blemishes. Since retinoids can make skin sensitive to the sun, doctors recommend using them at night (and being diligent about wearing sunscreen during the day). To avoid irritation, apply every other evening to start, gradually working up to nightly use. Bonus benefit: Retinoids have been shown to increase collagen production and plump fine lines, making them a good choice if youâre dealing with acne and wrinkles.
Blue-Light Therapy
If you want the latest preventive treatmentâand donât mind plunking down some cash for it.
How it works: Once or twice a week, you use a handheld device to aim a beam of blue light onto your skin. âIts wavelength hits and kills acne-causing bacteria,â so any brewing pimples never come to the surface.This method will not address existing blemishes. Doctors typically suggest combining blue-light therapy with other remedies, such as topical treatments. To make things easy, consider a blue-light device that comes in a kit. At-home devices are smart alternatives to multiple costly treatments at a doctorâs office.
Oral Antibiotics
If you experience painful bumps below the skin surface and your pimples leave lasting marks. âOral antibiotics act from the inside to kill the bacteria that cause acne,â says Keri. They also reduce the inflammation associated with pimples, so deep-seated blemishes hurt less and leave fewer scars.
Doctors usually prescribe them to get a severe condition under control and may then switch to topical treatments. Some antibiotics must be taken on an empty stomach, so read the label carefully.

Over 30 skin care routine?
Labels:
zinc skin care
mimster
I need a skin care routine that deals with combination skin over 30, more prominent wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, and quite a few blackheads on the nose. A step-by-step routine with product suggestions would be appreciated!
Answer
Combination skin can be tricky and one of the best ways of dealing with it is to use the method which the German skin guru Dr Hauschka advises. It's very simple, effective and cost efficient: only moisturise your skin during the day and leave your skin bare of any products at night. By leaving off your skin cream, the skin will produce its own natural moisture and in so doing, balance your skin better. It may take a couple of weeks for you to see a difference and any dry areas may feel a little tight to begin with but persevere and eventually, you'll find that your skin balances out better.
Because you won't be moisturising at night, you can be generous during the day. For combination skin, I recommend you use Mir products which are rich in anti-ageing ingredients but light on the skin and non-comedogenic (which means they won't clog your pores or aggravate your blackheads). Part of the product line is argan oil but don't be alarmed, this is not a greasy or clogging product, it goes on silky smooth and your skin will absorb it easily. Everyone I've recommended it to raves about it and has seen a difference in their skin in a matter of weeks. You simply mix a drop or two into Mir moisturising cream. Alternatively, try the Mir Skin Silk lotion which already contains argan oil so it's been pre-mixed for you.
Eye creams are a con - a way for cosmetics companies to sell more products so don't waste your money. But you do need an ultra gentle, high quality product that will not cause your eyes to puff up - which is usually a reaction to the chemicals in skin creams or eye products. Mir skin products are so gentle that they double up as eye creams so you can use a single product over your whole face.
Cleansing is of vital importance and there is a beauty secret to achieving perfectly clean skin, free of blackheads but without drying it or stripping it. I've written about this at length in my blog and it has transformed my own skin so I can't praise it highly enough. Go to www.sofarsoyoung.com and look at the post entitled 'How Clean is Your Skin?' in which you will find details of my secret solution: microfibre cloths. These were invented by doctors so you can rest assured that you are using something safe, effective and kind to skin. Your skin will be cleaner and clearer than ever.
Toner is not necessary if you cleanse correctly but if you want to use one, Mir do a good toner for combination skin which contains natural rose water - this is a gentle but effective astringent for combination skin but won't dry the skin out. Caudalie do a very nice toner for sensitive skin too (which you can use to remove eye make-up gently) but if you use a microfibre cloth, you won't need toner or an exfoliating product as the cloth will do all that for you and will help balance your combination skin. Exfolation is very important, especially in clogged areas (where you have blackheads). A micro fibre cloth will exfoliate your skin like nothing else and will do it ultra gently without any risk of damaging the skin.
If you go to 'Our Star Selection' on my blog, you'll see other product recommendations and the website for Mir products.
Finally, to prevent further wrinkles, wear a high sunblock every single day. SPF 15 in winter and SPF 30 in summer. And don't forget to pat it around your eyes to stop any further crows feet. 85% of skin ageing is caused by the sun so an SPF is your skin's best friend. They can clog pores so only use mineral powder (the best is Jane Iredale and she does a mineral sunblock, you'll find sources for Jane Iredale products on my blog) or try the Australian brand Invisible Zinc, as recommended by Elle Macpherson, Jerry Hall and Georgia May Jagger.
I don't sell anything, these are simply my own recommendations based on experience. I'm almost 44 and I don't have a single line or wrinkle on my face so trust me, my method works!
Good luck.

skin care problems?
lildominic
I have horribly oily skin, and i have to wash my face AT LEAST 3x per day. My skin (in terms of pimples) is not THAT bad but its been a while since it's been completely pimple free. It always seems like when one is going away I get another one. Are there any creams, ointments or even vitamins that I could use, that have worked well for someone you know? I've gone on accutane 5 years ago (taking the lowest dosage 1x day) and because the sideaffects are bad I'd rather not take it but if that looks like my only option then I will do it. Anyone have some suggestions?
Answer
Zinc, Vitamins c a and e help acne.. (skin)
I would suggest any three step regime [wash, toner acne cream twice a day] and carry the stridex pads that are like 'wet ones' now on the go for a mid day wipe down -
Before bed take a hot compress to your face to draw out the oil and dirt and also use a shampoo for oily hair (Proactive makes a shampoo) but rinse/repeat -
