right next to my nose, in the middle of my forehead, and on my cheek...oh and on my chin.

Pimples, I've had them all over the place, I still get them even though I'm 23, though these days they seem to be limited to the head.

fly_man 03-12-2009 03:21 AM

Thanks god I don't have pimple problems. I usually don't get any at all and if I do they're hardly noticeable. I would say that the strangest place I've had pimples is probably on my eyebrow. Either way, I use aveeno just as a precaution but I don't need it because both sides of my family have clear skin. I didn't know that water was good for preventing pimples but I'm glad I know it's just another reason to keep drinking water. I used to go through like 5 water bottles a night. Maybe that's a reason I don't have pimples?

omfg i attract pimples D: i have a ton of 'em. i've had them just about everywhere. i get them on my arms and legs, i've had some on my head under my hair, back of my head, neck, earlobe, near the eye, actually IN the nose o_O i have a few on my chest and stomach right now..and on my back. and i'm not so sure what to do about them x.x;

Kah Hilzin-Ec 03-12-2009 04:49 AM

The ones behind your ear are painful as heck! D': I once touche it by accident and I almost cried ;__;

@fly_man: I've had a couple on my eyebrow before xD And for some reason, there seem to always be a pimple between them @[email protected]

Great! Now there's a pimple under my nose! >_<*

I have had more pimples this month than in my LIFE. It is my sleep apnea mask. I just switched it out to a nasal pillow and think that will help. I use tooth paste on the pimples I have, it clears them up in a day or two.

Jennifer 03-12-2009 05:35 AM

Acne. :gonk: I used to have severe acne, it was terrible. And even to this day, if I don't maintain it, then it all comes back. My skin is just that poor in condition. And ya know what, I use ProActiv. It keeps the pimples and blackheads away. The crap isn't cheap though. I spent close to $60 alone on just this .33oz Advanced Blemish Treatment and the Face Mask. The three step system also costs me nearly $45 each month. But ever since they billed me three times and I have only received two packages...I canceled my account after demanding my money back from the product I didn't receive. Now I just buy them at the vending machine in the mall.

Seriously though, I'm a vacation spot for zits. u___u

I've had them everywhere, and I've even had a few of them turn into abscesses. One on my check is right now an abscess. While most abscesses are because of no bathing/washing an 'open wound' enough, I seem to be prone to them even though I wash my face 3x a day. I actually think it's because of the birth control I'm on.

My brother used Proactiv for a while and he had really bad acne, now he doesn't even really need to use it. Worked well for him. I haven't really tried it myself though.

I got two pimples on my neck once. I popped them and it looked like the cliche` vampire bite.

I got weird comments on that one >.>

Anna_Crackers 03-12-2009 05:12 PM

I used to get pimples everywhere.
Then I took a horrible/wonderful drug called acutane (it was like 6 months of torture)
Now I don't have any acne.

Salina 03-14-2009 08:30 PM

haha. this guy friend told me that toothpaste can get rid of pimples.O_O!

Café 03-14-2009 10:14 PM

I'm using this Proactive rip-off thing called Acne Free. I got it at Walmart for about $20. So far, it seems to be helping, but if I don't keep up with the system (that is, washing and applying all the crud 3X a day), new pimples emerge. O_O; It's a pain, really, but I don't see what else I can do. I'd rather not have to put make-up over them, because you can still see the pimple anyway. Covering it up won't make it disappear. I just want these things goooone. -_-;

I get really deep, really huge, really ouchie pimples on my chin, which annoys me to no end. Generally, I don't ever get them anywhere else - just my chin. Which isn't even an easy place to hide behind some hair, you know? Uhg! HATE them.

I think the weirdest place I've ever had a pimple is right at the very corner of my mouth. IT HURT. Eventually, I popped it and doused the whole area in toothpaste. It BURNED, but it went away eventually. ;_;

I -have- found that drinking ridiculous amounts of water and avoiding carbonated beverages really reduces the number of zits I get. Plain old water - who knew, right? =X

I usually don't get very many pimples, but I was recently in the hospital for a week and a half, and the air in there destroyed my skin. Now I look like a teen again. I've got a few bad patches on the sides of my head, right above my ears.

The worst (and strangest placed) I've ever gotten was on my shin -- I thought it was a spider bite or something until I poked at it and it popped.

For those who use toothpaste to help with their pimples: Is there a specific brand of toothpaste you use?

Tilly 03-15-2009 01:43 AM

When I was like 13 I used to get horrible pimples on my back and my face, but it cleared up pretty quickly, and now my skin is pretty good, considering I don't really do anything to it. My brother had them on his back too, so I was dreading what he has, because it's lasted for years and he has to take medication for it, still.

But I'm good now ~knocks on wood~

Weirdest place would be on the edge of my bellybutton.. It was so weird..

I hated and still hate popping zits. I leave them alone as long as I can.

Michelle_x0x 03-15-2009 02:23 AM

Ah! I hate them. D< If you have one before you go to bed, you can put tooth paste on it. O: It will help it dry up and in the morning it will be a bit better than it was. xD But it only works if your skin isn't that dry. The tooth paste has to be some kind of strong mint though. O:

Sally Sinema 03-15-2009 07:41 AM

In the ears is the most painful place I've ever gotten a pimple. Proactive always works best for me, just the face wash though, I never use the rest of the stuff the try to get you to buy, st. ives apricot scrub also works well, its also a lot cheaper.

Wait, your ears? D: I never thought you could get a pimple in your ears... That much really hurt. D:

Gaara_Silent_lover 04-05-2009 04:24 AM

The weirdest place for me would have to be on my scalp.
I was one day scratching my head, and then I felt this stinging sensation, looked at my fingernails, and saw blood.
._.
Kind of hard to get rid of when your hair is long.

jellysundae 04-05-2009 06:32 PM

I have one in my ear D: I found it yesterday by accident as I scratched in the shell of my ear and nearly screamed in agony. Popped it later because it was annoying me, it bled everywhere and the area around it/inside the flesh hurts a lot now : /

Captain Howdy 04-05-2009 08:57 PM

:| *puts down my sandwich*

... ... ... Thank you, jelly.

jellysundae 04-05-2009 09:06 PM

But...my ear HURTS! :cry:

Captain Howdy 04-05-2009 09:27 PM

*laughs* I wasn't really eating a sandwich. :P

... Poor jelly. *hug*

But i've had them in my ear as well. You push them a little and it's like someone's jammin' a screwdriver in your ear canal.

jellysundae 04-05-2009 09:48 PM

LOL yep, good analogy xD

Jennifer 07-21-2009 04:28 PM

I guess I'm allowed to post here since it hasn't yet been six months. D:

Anyway, I'm sort of needing advice on some products. If anyone could please give me their input. Right now I'm trying to decide between two different foaming cleansers. Has anyone tried these?
Product One, Product Two
