I'm 26 and I'm Italian.I love LANCOME, it's high-quality and even if is French and I should like italian products is the best for me.Tresor is a fantastic parfume and every kind of woman would love it instantly and the products for the face also lancome especially if she's over 30.These are serious products, trust me!

Does anyone know how to get rid of pimples without any facial skin care products?
i have a couple of pimples on my forehead,i need to get rid of them by Friday can anyone help me please?Does anyone know how to get rid of pimples without any facial skin care products?
I am a Registered Nurse and I specialize in skin care and teen acne.
After 12 years in this profession I find that most of my patients who deal with acne or brekout problems DO NOT SEE RESULTS from commercial products sold at drung stores or the mall. They usually contain too much benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid or sulfur which tends to OVER DRY the skin and cause itching or irritations.
Also, home remedies such as lemon juice or alcohol or toothpaste SHOULD NEVER BE USED because they cause small tears in the skin and leave the skin more susceptible to bacteria that causes pimples or acne.
Your question is very broad and you need to get professional advice. I will explain why it's a broad question!
Your age plays a role! Do you always have breakouts?
However, acne can result from several factors such an increase in hormone levels. In males testosterone or androgens. In females, androgens respectively. The increase in androgen levels can stimulate the oil glands to become enlarged and thus more oil production is produced. An increased oil production can clog the pores with oil or sebum ( white thick substance) which cause the cell walls of the pores in the skin to breakdown. This process allows bacteria to form and thus breakouts develop.
Genetics may also be a cause. It is a myth that greasy food or chocolate causes breakouts.
However, using make-up sponges that are not changed or washed often can contaminate the pores with bacteria which may develop into acneic breakouts.
Teenagers going through hormonal and growth changes are prone to acne.
If you have severe breakouts than you might need medication. There are many factors.
The most important thing is that you need products that are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every age group has different products appropriate for them. If you are young than you need milder products as to not dry out your beautiful young skin.
The problem with commercial skin products is that they are manufactured for MASSES OF PEOPLE and are not specifically made for different peoples' needs.
Your skin type is different than mine and your age differs from mine so how is it logical that we both use the same skin product for breakouts. We need different strengths of cleansers and toners. Do you kind of understand what I am getting at?
Here is my STRONG SUGGESTION for you. I refer all my students and patients to this website:
www.aboutyourskincare.com
You need to consult with professionals and on this website YOU CAN ASK QUESTIONS FOR FREE AND A SKIN EXPERT/PHYSICIAN WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. It would be a shame if you dont take advantage of this free service.
Lastly, they have incredible products for breakouts and they make them specifically for every kind of skin type. That means that if your breakouts are more severe than mine, than while we both will buy the same product yours will have stronger ingredients than mine will.
They have a mild glycolic acid cleanser that's great for your type of skin and also a DRYING LOTION ( I have 3 bottles) that you put directly on your breakouts and the next day it's gone. It's truely magic in a bottle.
A basic guideline for properly taking care of your skin is this ( now if you're a young girl you will need fewer products than this):
Night time:
1. Exfoliate the skin
2. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser
3. Mild Glycolic Acid Toner ( cleans off the excess debris and balances the PH level of the skin).
4. Drying Lotion used only on breakouts
5. Moisturizer
Morning:
1. Mild Glycolic Acid Cleanser
2. Moisturizing cream
The above is a standard you may need to only use one or two products. Visit: www.aboutyourskincare.com

Good Luck to you,
MichelleDoes anyone know how to get rid of pimples without any facial skin care products?
when ur in the shower rub ur face while shampooing. i do that and have had a clear complexion since doing it for like a year now. oh and dont put ur hair in a poy tail because it causes ur face to become oily for some reason but at the same time keep ur hair outta ur face
Have u tryed not washing your face with anything like me i have to not wash my face just get a wet wash cloth and wipe it off good but dont use anything but u can still use make up but no soap or lotion or anything and my face has been acne free since i was 13 cause b4 then i had the worst acne ever i swore i looked like a pizza face lol but now its all good smooth and pimple free
hi dear. just follow old is gold technique. A mixture of saffire, alovera, turmeric powder, rose water or soya milk gives best results. use it as a face pack daily, before u sleep. wash it off after 15-20 min. result may b slow( 2-3 weeks), but it prevents acne completely.TRY IT......*,*......
lemon juice and basil or toothpaste. the lemon juice and basil stings, but it works. The best thing is really just getting a sun burn. Even though it's bad for you, it's a fool proof way to get rid of pimples fast.
wash your face 2 times a day, and dont wear any make up, and get lots of sun on your face. it will clear up right away.
and of course, you might have to pop them int he sun doesnt clear them up.
i guess you could try hydrogen peroxide on them, it drys the area out and hopefully kills the pimple, that's all i know that could work..good luck
Wash your face with a mild soap and don't touch them because oils from your hands will get on them.
drink lots of water it should make your skin less oily and the pimples should dissipate.
Baking soda and water. :)

me and my mom been using aveeno products for a couple of years now. and i highly recommend aveeno products for its active natural ingredients.
try using Aveeno products like:

My husband uses Wexler skin care line - you can find it at Bath and Body Works. They sell a starter kit for $49. He loves it and his skin looks good. I use clinique. I would just make sure you are using a daily moisturizer and a good eye cream. Make sure you exfoliate a few times a week - this helps the moisturizer sink into the skin and work better. Good Luck!
I can send you a free sample or Arbonne's RE9 Anti Aging system for men. It is great...and it was selected by Golf Digest.
Let me know if interested.
My husband and myself use a kit called ';10 years younger'; which are 3 products based on essential oils, pure plant extracts and are free from harsh chemicals. Have it a go! I would absolutely recommend it you may want to visit this website www.ecoflow.com/start
Try a very thick eye cream. Try the Oil of Olay regenerist line. If you moisturize, the lines won't seem so dark.
Also try getting a face scrub. Help shed those dead skin cells.
use olay or ponds miracle cream. they are available in all department stores and drugstores. its very effective. Goodluck!symphony

Which facial skincare products are best for sensitive skin?
I find it really difficult buying products for my face because i have sensitive skin what is the best skincare products that suit my skin type?Which facial skincare products are best for sensitive skin?
try to use natural organic skincare products.they really do make all the difference.try Liz Earle products, available on qvc,or ebay, among other places.Theyre very reasonably priced, and are absolutely amazing to use.She uses natural plant extracts and essential oils, without adding any of the nasty additives.youll be hooked once youve tried them.they are so gentle and effective.Which facial skincare products are best for sensitive skin?
I like Neutrogena myself, and it's a reasonable price. Also REN do a nice cream for sensitive skin but it's pricey... Also Aqueous cream from any chemist is good if your skin is really reactive and you can wash with it too.
i have sensitive skin and i use simple products - theyre great :D
I found ';Simple'; skincare to be really good if you have sensitive skin as they are unperfumed, Good luck!
simple products
Laura,
You should try Arbonne. They make a few regimes (one an acne line) another called Intelligence and for the 30+ an anti aging line. It's all botanical ph balanced so it adjusts to all skin types.
Simple are great for sensitive skin but I recently found the moisterisor doesn't do much for my dry sensitive skin so I swapped to the body shop shop vitamin E moisteriser so I now use simple washes and toner and the body shop cream.
Hey i suggest ';simple'; its a great product for sensitive skin, Its 100% perfume and colour free.
My friend has sensitive skin..And swears by it
You can purchase all of there skincare from 'Priceline'
Goodluck!
Any clinique skincare range is good
I start with cleansing with Johnsons 3-in1 face wipes then a tiny bit of nivea cream
I have incredibly sensitive skin with allergies and quite serious exzema. I use E45 lotion which can be used both on the face and the body. If my skin is exceptionally dry I use Aqueous cream which again can be used on the face and body and is available over the counter. Both of these creams are non scented and are designed especially for sensitive skin.
clinique stuff is good as most of it is perfum free

What are some facial skin care products that don't have petroleum in them?
My skin has become extremely sensitive due to GLOBAL WARMING and I feel very determined to change my entire skin care line from Neutrogena to a more trusted brand.. what's out there.. pure coconut, carrot, olive, shea, or something a long those lines.. thanks!What are some facial skin care products that don't have petroleum in them?
There's a range of skincare products called Miessence. They are 100% certified organic and definitely DO NOT contain petroleum. AND they are a carbon neutral company so they don't leave their carbon footprint on the world either.
They do their ordering on line and you get things delivered to you very quickly. I've had things sent to me in the States as well as Australia.
Also, if you check out the website (I've put it in the 'Source' section) there's a lot on other environmental information there.
Hope this helps,
