Out of the blue for no reason at all I've turned into a walking zit and can't even apply my makeup without seeing them, any quick solutions to get rid of them? Thanks ladies :}

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion! The stuff is magical! It doesn't work 100% overnight but you see a huge difference the next morning!

Have you been eating a lot of junk? Like, a few weeks ago I ate like 3 bags of Doritos in 3 days and it was the worst breakout I've ever had. Drinking lots if water should help if that's the problem, it should go down in a week or so.

Savlon is my life saver when spots flare up! takes the redness out and stops them turning into white heads! also exfoliate twice a week and cleanse everyday. Use toner to keep pores minimised. Use a good moisturiser with Spf and remember take makeup off every night. For now don't wear makeup and let your skin breathe so it can heal. Face masks twice a week are a life saver too. Hope I have helped. x

How often are you cleaning your applicators? how old is your foundation?

Eat clean foods and I recommend Purity cleanser by Philosophy with their Hope in a Jar moisturizer. Always use moisturizer after washing your face! It balances skin ph. Many people make the mistake of not using a moisturizer. I also recommend the Clean and Clear spot treatment.

Get an acne treatment gel or a toner with salicylic acid or benzoyl.

Lol I doubt laxatives are the answer Lindsey. We all need to be aware of recommendations considering the age range around here. Laxatives shouldn't be involved unless medically necessary. Sheesh.

Okay so a month ago I had a crazy breakout situation. So the first thing I did was use an astringent to clean all dirt and oil on my face. Then I put a facial mask on. When I took the facial mask off, I splashed hot water all over my face (I like really hot water to open my pores). I then use my facial wash to clean my face and then use a soft exfoliating scrub. Once that's all done. I splash cold water on my face to close my pores. I do this whole routine twice a month. Everyday, twice a day, I do everything but the astringent and facial mask. I also leave my skin makeup free til my skin is clear. I also do a baking soda scrub once a week on my nose and forehead to reduce white/black heads and oil production.

Make sure all your brushes are clean. Also have a regular skin routine and apply an acne treatment on the spots.
