There are pictures down below but long story short, in middle school i had pretty good skin and now i'm in highschool and i have such horrible texture skin. I have these bumps on the side of my face and some are colorless and some are red??? I don't know if it's acne or clogged pores, and i have no idea how to get rid of them, someone please help me. And I don't want to go to the dermatologist bc it costs money so i would love reccomandation on products!!!:) thank you.

Ugh I feel you. I don't know how much this will help you but I will try. For years I had these white bumps (probably like 20) all clustered under my eye. They wouldn't go away no matter how much I scrubbed or exfoliated. They were just...there. So finally when i was 17 (I had them since I was 13) I went to the dermatologist. He told me it was calcium build up in the skin and long story short he had to numb the area and get a tiny needle and poke each one then pop them. They came out like rock hard white heads. They looked similar to some of the spots on your face. After that I've maybe had 4 pop up under my eye again (I'm 22 now) but I've just popped them myself. Disinfected the smallest needle I could find and gently poked it then popped it out. Sometimes it just dries on its own and you can literally scratch it off like a scab, but it won't scar. If that's not the case, try using a chemical exfoliate, not the St. Ives scrubs or anything with sandy texture. That might irritate it even more. I'm sorry I hope this kind of helped.

It really looks like congestion...blackheads. Have you tried the Clarisonic? I've heard it really helps with blackheads and congestion. Also, make sure you are using a decent face wash. No sulfates. Check the ingredients lists for other pore-cloggers too. It's painstaking, but there is a lot of garbage on the market that says it's "non-comedogenic" on the label.
