So today I had two people mention to me that my skin had broken out pretty bad. I was already feeling really self conscious about my break out, and although I'm not offended I just really wish that it would go away already. I recently re started my birth control and acne medications and my skin is re purging itself and I currently have some acne on the left side of my forehead, and I have a pimple between my brows. One of my closest friends birthday parties is on Saturday and I really want to get rid of at least the smaller ones and redness before hand but preferably all of it. I was wondering if you ladies could suggest any face masks from Freeman's face masks, and masks in general, or any other things I can do to make them go away. I have two cystic ones currently and two acne dark spots from ones that are going away and I would really like to clear my skin up before I go to her party. I would also love to know what you ladies do when you are feeling down about your appearance. Thank you so much in advance!

I love the oatmeal and avocado clay mask from Freeman's. Once is sucks up all the gunk out from the blemish, and is a whitehead or whatever, apply some diluted tea tree oil each night until it's gone :)

You need to try the clear improvement charcoal mask from origins, It really works & you can literally feel it sucking out the dirt & stuff from your pores it's amazing. I recommend this 100%

I rub Witch Hazel on my face before I put any other ance prevention products on, because it cleans out your pores and would take all of that other stuff off. Whatever people say, DONT USE TOOTHPASTE! I used honey for a while and it kind of helped for me. Hope I helped:)

Ugh I woke up with a massive spot on my forehead this morning. I wore a dark magenta lipstick (Soap & Glory "Pom-Pom") to distract from my skin 😂

Some tea tree oil, or a sulfur ointmen will help with your visitors. SPF is important so that there's no increased redness or irritation.
I would be careful with witch hazel as its processed using alcohol and can risk irritation.

I've used the liquid from a ibeprophen liquid gel and it helped the inflammation which helped make it not at noticeable

I would crush up ibuprofen and add a little water as a paste and add it to my spot or anything really red. It helped with that for me, and also helped my cystic acne. Whatever people say, do not try to pop your acne! Leave your cysts alone!

UGH, some people are so sick! I used to have people on the daily come up to me and talk shit about how bad my skin was. Grr, who do they think they are?? Anyway, the Clean&Clear advantage spot treatment (purple and silver tube) is amazing, I just bought my first bottle of tee tree oil, so I'm trying that out, and sunscreen is SO important! A really great facial sunscreen that shouldn't break you out is the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunscreen! Good luck, and don't let losers like that take you down! YOU'RE FLAWLESS, ISABEL.

I think that just not wearing make-up to conseal it helps best. And well, when someone says that you've broken out just say: jeez I'm sorry that my skin isn't perfect today. May I have a not-so-flawless-skin once in a while?! WHY ARE YOU CARE SO MUCH!!" Nah, just kidding. You shouldn't say that, that would be kinda... Odd.

Also, I've tried tea tree oil and it sucked. It didn't do anything. And for people who say that I haven't tried it for long enough, I've tried it for 4 months. It didn't even romove a little bit of redness. But that might just be my skin. Good luck!!

Your stunning! I currently got a really nasty break out along my cheek bones and I'm using apple cider vinegar to help dry them up and get the ph of my face back to normal. It's been working for me I hope this was any help 😶
