FakePlasticTree 0 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Hi there, I have a big problem with White head around my mouth and my jaw, Basically where I shave.I always have white head in that area, like 10-15 . Either i pop 'em and apply anti biotic + pain and relief on them, or they just pop by themselves and i apply the cream.. However THey always COME BACK!Maybe my skin is too dry in this area from shaving. I've tried applying BP in this area but then i get even more white head and bigger ones. ANy help would be appreciated thank you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VtGuy69 0 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I find that tea tree oil prevents the whiteheads I get and I usually get alot of whiteheads. I'm using ActivClear which has tea tree oil in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stephsteph 0 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Try using a hypoallergenic shaving gel or cream for a while, the combination of the soap + razor could be making things worse. It's hard for me to know what will work with faces and shaving, for obvious reasons (me being a girl and everything). But with shaving my legs, I can tell over a period of time that shaving gel/cream leaves my legs with much less irritation and ingrowns than with soap (including gentle facial soap etc).
