Pimples and blackheads from stress....what do I do?

[#1]

Hey guys. I have oily skin and noticed that a lot of black heads and pimples are popping up and it seems like my pores are kind of large. I'm using Clean and Clear right now but I'm not seeing results that I want. What's the best type of cleanser to use?

Hello, 

Looking for a new cleanser can be confusing becuase there are so many options. I like to use simple cleanser that remove makeup and get the job done. The most important thing is making sure you have removed all your makeup. I like Philosphy's Purity Cleanser. Its a make up remover, cleanser and toner all built into one. Its definitly worth a try. Hope this helps. You can always head to your local Sephora if there is one near you and try some samples of different cleansers before you decide. Hope this helps.

I have tried clean and clear and it did not work very well for me either so i currenntly use the clinique cleanser,toner,lotion. and OMG it is a miracle worker! It can be on the $$$ pricy side but worth every penny!!!

I personally have oily skin too and a homemade remedy I use for oily skin is once a week I cut and apple in half and rub the apple on the oily parts of my face let it sit for 5 minutes and rinse it out with cold water . For pimples and blackheads I mix salt with water and make it into a paste type and rub it on my face it does sting but that means its working then I let it sit for 10-15 minutes I would do this every other day . Hope it works for you.

Hi Chenelle,

Here's a great investment that has saved my skin, it's gentle and effective and perfect for those stubborn blackheads and break outs.

Plus it will help keep your skin looking clean and clear.

Hope you like it,
