Gina, do you have any advice for stopping a pimple in its tracks? My complexion was getting better but I've grown a nice new, red pimple, which I know will leave a great big mark before it fades. What advice do you have for stopping a pimple when you wake up and see a red bump?
Also, in terms of my skin, I have something like a rash on mostly my left cheek. These are tiny little spots with a hard core. Sometimes when I squeeze the core out, it has a little hair attached. These have been there for a really long time, the bump doesn't fade like a normal spot, it stays bumpy because of the hard core.
I'm really sick of them and they're getting me down :( especially since growing a new spot on the weekend when I thought I was doing so well. I've never been for an extraction facial, would that help with the bumps?
sai123, have you tried rubbing a lemon cut in half on your elbows?
also athens_bride try rubbing ice on your spot, it may stop it from forming. especially if its a red bump
i wanted some help from u.. im pretty hand conscious..and ive noticed that some parts of my hands are getting a little dark..the knuckles .. and the area beneath the nails.. i think because these areas have joints etc.. but can u suggest a remedy to make them lighter? ive got fair hands, and so its even more prominent...and i aint liking it at all =(
also, how to make elbow lighter in color??.. we often neglect it..
secondly.. i dont have too much facial hair.. but i think ive got long hair on the sidelocks.. i dont know how to explain..and it makes me so conscious while taking a side pose picture..someone told me use 'chanay ki daal ka ata'...leave it for a bit and then scrub it off.. i did that for a while but i didnt show improvement so i left it..id be grateful if u could give me some suggestions..
Cut a lemon in half..and sprinkle with brown sugar.. rub this onto u're knuckles. Apply olive oil and massage u're hands.
A paste made out of milk powder, lemon juice and turmeric is known to lighten darl elbows...apply cocoa butter lotion several times a day.
That fine downy hair.. can either be bleached or threaded.. there aren't any home remedies to remove hair.. u may apply a wet piece of alum after u've threaded..this reduced hair-growth.

I don't know u're age, but if u're above 25.. go to a professional for a facial.. (make sure their equipment is sanitized) and ask them to remove blackheads for u. It's usually blackheads that erupt as pimples under-the-skin.

To stop a pimple, def tea tree oil :) please don't apply toothpaste! Do u know what's causing these tiny spots? If they're raised bumps, they can be infected hair-follicles.. PLEASE don't squeeze! It cud leave u with perm scars!
Buy fine fullers-earth and mix it with rosewater..chill this and apply it for 15 mins and wash-off. This shud calm the skin.. U shud show it to u're derm though, perhaps they'd prescribe an antibiotic cream.

Thanks Gina! No idea what’s causing the spots, I never wax my face so that can’t be it.
I use a soap free face wash (Avene) and anti-blemish cream by Avene too. It’s very light and non greasy, but to be honest apart from giving me a clean feeling it’s not really improved my skin. The herbal face packs, multani mitti etc are making it feel smoother. But it seems like nothing will get these stupid bumps to shift.
How long should I use honey and cinnamon to fade the dark pigment left from spots?
Try an anti-bacterial facewash then.. it's prolly infected hair follicles. ALWAYS seal u're pores after cleansing by using an astringent (for oily acne prone skin) or a toner (for dry to normal skin)
See how it looks with the multani mitti and anti-bacterial facewash..otherwise we cud try an antibiotic topical cream.
ginaa can u helpp... ive dun afew colours on peoples hair but it always happens the top bits are lighter and the botoms are darker.. whats the proedure to colour hair?? is it apply to roots and then the bottom and ends or is it bottom and ends first then the roots??
U have to make sure the overall hair-color is the same.. a person with lighter roots and dark ends.. will end-up having dark roots and lighter ends after the dye.
U usually start from the roots..and apply the color activator to both sides of the desired section. Any previously bleached hair.. will give a diff effect :)
Mona buy an antibiotic cream Bactroban is really good.. to calm the skin u may apply calamine lotion.
The skin will peel..and purchase Vitamin E capsules..prick them with a needle and use the oil directly to the affected area's. PLEASE stay away from creams with salicylic acid, glycolic acid, alcohol, acetate, menthol..these will aggravate u're skin furthur.
Yoghut, is great for such conditions..apply it directly to the affected area!
G what abt loreal's new face wash which has salicylic acid? their exfoliating gel also has that.. is it harmful?? i mst say i tried the facewash and man, ur skin feels so chilly, minty....!!
^ Yes that's good..but if u go thru this thread..I've given a remedy that uses red sandalwood, wild turmeric and lemon juice..that is by far the most effective for scars.
ginaaa i neep ur helppp pleasee.. i have started to drink water as im fed up of all creams ect on spots on my face... ive been drinking about 10 glasses a day since 2 days 2day is my 3rd day.. but i have cum out wid little sopts that have all yellow stuff in them... why is that happening... what shall i do to the yellow spots???? ive got fair complexion and they wasnt der b4 but since ive been drinking the water they have cum out allllllllllllllllllllll over the face....
Those bumps can't be caused by water :) just cleanse u're skin.. and keep it toned! If u are fed-up of everything, u shud see a derm.. don't give-up on u're skin..have it sorted-out!
Boil mint and neem leaves in 2 cups of water till it's reduced to 1 cup..strain and cool this and apply it to u're face several times a day.
