Question for girls on... Pimples...

[Quercus]

Touch subject huh? At least for me.
But anyway..
Iv battled acne since I started puberty, and nothing at all seems to help.

And iv always wondered.. What do you girls think about guys with acne? Does it make you cringe at the sight? orr does it not really matter?

[heykay]

It depends on how much there is and where its at. A ton on the cheeks slightly disturbs me. Anywhere else I don't really care though.

i would like to know the answer to this too:)

As long as the guy takes good care of himself otherwise (i.e. shaves, showers, combs his hair a few times a week), acne isn't that big of a deal, neither are acne scars. If you're self-conscious about your zits though, try sleeping with a freshly washed towel over your pillow every night. I can tell you from personal experience that this works better than ANY acne medication I've tried.

I've got a bit of acne too, particularly on my chest. I've never done anything about it until now. It's started to go away, especially on my jaw line. I'm sure the towel over the pillow everynight would work wonders. Imagine how much skin oil build up on a pillow case laying on it for 8-10 hours.

Also try natural oils on your skin. They don't dry as much as salycilic acid but help acne tremendously. Mix jojoba oil, tea tree oil and aloe vera gel together and rub it on your skin.

For acne scars, use a combination of vitamin e oil and rosehip seed oil. Both work wonders getting rid of scarred tissue.
