I have suffered from acne pretty much all of my life. I first started getting pimples when I was about 11 years old. I was an early bloomer and along with that came pimples. My skin is very oily too, so along with the pimples came a face that was drenched in oil every single day, all day. Well, we are all told not to pop pimples, but who are they kidding? You cannot go around with a bulging whitehead about ready to explode. No, you must gently pop it the right way and then you can go about your day much more confidently. There are a few tips to help you to stop picking at those zits all together though. You can prevent pimples from even forming at all. Finally, in my late twenties I have discovered skincare products that keep pimples at bay. Now of course everybody’s skin is different, but hopefully what has helped me will help you too!
