Sudden Breakouts? help!

Hi!
So I am going back to school next week and my skin looked great until two days ago, I broke out and I have like 15 little red pimples on my forehead. I wash my face twice a day and moisturizer twice a day, and I always wash off all of my eye and face makeup. Do you know what could be causing this and how can I get rid of acne quickly, because I would like to go to school with a clearer face. :)
Thanks! Xx

Ps- the other day, I used a different face wash than I usually do, but it was just one time and I used the normal one the next day again. Could that have caused it??

There are multiple things that could be causing it like stress and hormones or if you ate a bunch of junk food recently that could be it or if you have food allergies that could be it too - regardless I would invest in a sulfur mask to use on your face at night to try and quickly dry out the pimples and you can even dab it on each pimple and leave it on overnight and that will be quicker too - aside from that I find tea tree oil works well to reduce redness and swelling if you can find a nice spot treatment with that in it that should help too.

I think the first thing you should look for if you see a difference in your skin is a difference in routine. To answer your question, yes you can and will break out after one use if you are sensitive or allergic to a product or if the product is comedogenic (clogs pores).
