Constant forehead acne

A couple months ago, my forehead went from nearly clear to covered in bumps and pimples. I've used every type of topical, spiro, I've also done a weekly 20% salicylic acid peel and nothing has helped. Some of the spots will clear away quickly and not scar if I pop them, but there is literally 2-3 new ones every day. I also get pimples in my eyebrows and frequently around them and in between them. I've included pictures with and without flash. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Use Benzoyl Peroxide every night, on top of that use the AHA creme from acne.org :) 

Also be careful what sort of hair products you are using, they can cause it too.

Do you get you eyebrows threaded or waxed or anything? Do you tend to put eyebrow pencil on?

What have you been using specifically in the past 2 months to treat them?

Your acne is still quite mild so don't worry, it looks fine. We just need to try and stop them from recurring.
