Did you happen to use a new product at all?

That doesn't look like acne. There may be bumps but that can be a side effect of another condition.

You should see a derm asap to make sure it isn't something serious. Is your skin sensitive or dry feeling there?

It looks like contact dermatitis to me, not acne, something has irritated your skin. You could try some polysporin to calm it down, or ask the pharmacist who's working at your local drug store what he or she would recommend. Quite often the pharmacist is better than the MD at helping with products and drugs ( and my dad is an MD)

So I suffered from terrible bouts of acne as a young adult I tried everything from proactive and every makeup remover and acne medicine imgionable I swear this sounds crazy but please for the love of you skin use Windex you will see results within hours. I hope this helps I swear by it...

Uh, did he watch My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and take the dad's advice literally? The dad was obsessed with Windex, and even the star's boyfriend became in love with in, I think he put it on a scrape or something. Don't use Windex! Polysporin, and I had a consult with a plastic surgeon today, will spill all the skincare stuff tomorrow and the prescriptions, because they are old drugs, off patent, hence inexpensive. Amazing man!

Wether it was nice or mean megs right come on WINDEX??!! on the face please don't give stupid dangerous advice to people that's insane should we maybe mix a little antifreeze in it as well?? lol I'm sorry but no Meg was right and we're all adults here if you can't handle words then don't read them. it does look like contact dermatitis though I'd definitely go to a pharmacy and ask or go to a dermatologist do not put wind3x on your face lmao.

Meg, it's pretty dangerous to put cleaning products on your skin, I would have called him something far worse in my more refined moments, a word the Aussies seem to love to call their friends for some strange reason 😂

Your skin looks irritated. Could be an allergic reaction to a new product, or possibly the environment. Take a Benadryl to take the inflammation down.

Look, I don't make the rules, just follow them.
I'm not trying to say putting Windex on your face is a good idea, I agree, that is very unhealthy. It's one thing to say s*** but come on, don't be dropping an f bomb, I doubt you would like it if someone did that to you, just saying.

Sorry to cause drama, I just don't think that's right

It was King George's favourite word, man never stammered saying it. Upper Class Brits tend to use a great deal of salty language, I have dual citizenship, when I lived in London, some words were almost common speak! I'm one of the rare women with no kids so I have to be mindful when kids come over that I don't use some of my favourite expletive in casual conversation. Canadians swear like troopers too, I think many of our Prime Ministers have dropped the f bomb at the press etc, quite funny but not if you know what I mean!

I thought I remembered seeing it in the rules, maybe I'm wrong, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry to falsley accuse you, I meant no harm. Please don't talk about me like that, that was very rude.
