Is my acne really bad or am I overreacting?

[Anonymous]

One side of my face is clear it's weird

At your age that is absolutely normal, its not bad at all. Just make sure you don't use to much make up (can block the pours), wash it but not to much (if you have to much oil it can cause blockage, if you have to little that can cause the skin to dry out and get micro-abrasians which can cause skin infections that create pimples and things like that). But honestly, that's absolutely normal.

Your acne isn't bad, but your face is really oily. I recommend using a scrubbing face wash in the shower.

I was my face and I put on oils so that it could be shiny

[ShortCircuit]

I would advise against using oils, or at least using less of it. If your skin is too dry without the oils, you might be able to find an oil-free moisturizer.

Acne is just part of life. It sucks, i know. Yours doesn't seem that bad compared to stuff like cystic acne. Buy if it really bothers you that much, go talk to a dermatologist.

[desidoll]

No, you are overreacting. It is just mild breakout. Oh girl you haven't seen my acne when I was at your age!

[Iron_Man]

It's fine it's natural at your age if you didn't have acne then I would be worried because you're the only teenager in the world that wouldn't have had it

[Jaaaaade]

Actually even as a teenager it is possible to not have acne. You just have to do the right stuff and it's really simple stuff. Some of it include washing the face daily, not touching it, changing bed sheets regularly, drinking water, [...].

@Jaaaaade water is where I mess up

[Jaaaaade]

Get yourself a washable bottle, you know those ones you reuse? Usually it's metal/silver. Avoid plastic otherwise it will decompose in your water. Plus you can put warm or very cold drinks in it (depending on where you live, but I would advise normal water tenperature) and it keeps the temperature.

So keep that bottle of water with you all day and keep drinking bits by bits throughout the day. Always have it in front of you and reachable!

I've never seen a teen yet that never had a
Pimple yet

Seems like your about to have abs outbreak I would take action now also switch your pillow case after you wash your face that way the older oils don’t get back on there

[wankiam]

looks ok to me... wouldn't put me off in the slightest

[SlimeC0RE]

You haven’t seen a bad case of acne in your whole life if you ask this seriously.

[LiamSawyer]

It's not that bad looking but of course it would look better clear.

[TripleAce]

lol... curly sue
id say minor

it will go away soon in a couple of years max

[Emanon007]

No it’s not bad, it’s ok and normal, not really showing

[littlelofty]

littlelofty; Try using sand soup, or don't pot oils on your skin. Just wash your face with good old ly soup?

[Jaaaaade]

Do you sleep on one side only? If yes maybe check if you regularly change your bed&pillow sheets.
And to answer, I personally don't care about it. ^^

[BronzedAdonis]

is your acne cheek the side you sleep on?

[Asker]

I'm starting to think that now

[BronzedAdonis]

thats probably it, the pores become blocked during sleep

[EclipseoftheHeart]

Standard for your age.
