I get a lot of ance (it might be because I'm a teen) and I can't stand the zits and blackheads. Another problem of mine is picking. I want to stop picking, but i'm not entirely sure how, is there some sort of trick to it? Most of the acne appears on my forehead, but it also appears on the rest of my face. When I pick, I get a scab and then it takes forever for the scab to heal because I won't stop picking at it. How do I get rid of my acne? I have sensitive skin, so there's a lot of things that don't work for me. Please help >< I'm worried that I might get scars, if I don't already have them.

Simply stop picking! Every time you go to pick think how upset you are with your skin afterwards.

 

Would you rather have a few small bumps on your forehead that will eventually dry up or a bunch of bleeding scabs? You're actually drawing more attention to your problem area by creating wounds than just leaving the zits be.

 

Products that can help;

 

Thayers witch hazel toner with cucumber or rose water will work. All Thayers witch hazel toners and alcohol free. Any Thayers witch hazel toner will do.

 

Cerave hydrating cleanser

 

Cerave salicylic acid, vitamin D lotion with ceramides

 

You can spot treat with tea tree oil if you need to. If you have a pimple that's hurting you apply tea tree or lavender oil. Those both numb and fight acne causing bacteria
