So I'm 17 and have the normal stress most teens have; arguements with parents, relationship problems, school. I dont use anything other than baking soda or sugar with honey to expholiate my skin and i always moisterize after either with extra virgin olive oil or baby lotion . I put on weight the past couple of months and just started eating healthy and exercizing about 2 weeks ago.

My diet is I guess typical for a teenager. I eat lots of friut but I'm hispanic and my mother cooks very greasy foods. I don't drink coffee or soda. I only drink water and occasionally coolaid juice or milk

. Recently my menstral cycle has been so irregular and and around the time it come I've been breaking out more than usual and I blamed that on the hormones. But for the past week I've started breaking out so much .

First it was the normal kind I get and my sister told me to try this cinnamon and honey paste that you leave on over night.

The next morning the pimples were almost flat and I was so happy but the next morning they were very red so I used peroxide to reduce the redness . The next 2 night I used the paste but then I noticed that more pimples where appearing and I used even more of the paste . I got a bit of acne on my left cheek so I used the past on those pimples also but a day later I noticed that although it flattened the pimples it was leaving dark purple like spots and the pimple still weren't fully gone. Yesterday I uesd the past on some pimples on my forhead and the this morning they were so dark but flat.

Today I finally came to my senses and realized that the paste was leaving horrible spots and also causing me to brake out even more.

Currently I have lots of pimples on both cheeks most flat but super red of not almost a black purple-ish color them

I also have some on my forhead close to my hair line. Some almost look rashlike

I decided today to use lemon juice on the pimples and after I washed it off I applied extra virgen olive oil all over my face making sure to blot of the excess oil .

This is the firfirst time I've broke out like this and I don't know what to do . I'm trying not to stress out but I feel like a pizza ( sorry I'm known to overeact )

I need help .

Is this from my irregular period or the paste I used.? Or both.?

How do I get rid of these pimples that haven't gone away for about a week and how do I get rid of the dark spots their leaving.?
