Okay, im freaking out. I have 2 days before i go back to school (australia) and yesterday, i had this gigantic zit on my left cheek, and another one on my right cheek, and seeing how everyone said that putting toothpaste on would make it smaller, so i put some toothpaste on my cheeks, and it really stung badly, but i didn't wash it out until 30 minutes later XD And when i did, my face was all blotchy like a million mosquitos bit my face, it was horrible, i wanted to cry. And then it just hurt whenever i touched it, and it was all sore, and i put some aloe vera gel on it, and went to bed, and this morning i woke up and my face is all... scabby, it hurts and its all pink and horrible. How can i get rid of this before school, in two days ? It's really horrible, i don't even want tot go out. And i don't have makeup =[ My face hurts when i yawn or wash my face, and it stings lightly even though i don't have anything on it right now, and also, should i wash my face with my cleanser or not, because im scared it'll sting and what about a facial ??? It looks like i have a bad case of ex ma (spelling?) I... don't have any of the things you guys mentioned =[

Get some camomile teabags and wash very gently with a cold/luke warm tea made from these on a pad of cotton wool - . Or get some Calendula oil if you can - this is agreat soother. You probably 'broke out' due to a bit of stress about going back to school. It should settle very soon - maybe not quick enough for your return - BUT don't mess with it or it could encourage infection.

You need to get the refining mask from proactive. It'll cost about 27 dollars by itself. It's an on the spot treatment. And don't EVER EVER EVER put toothpaste on your face. It just irritates your skin.Another thing you can do is make sure that whatever you lay your face on at night is squeaky clean and make sure that your hands are clean when you touch your face. Also, use a non-oily moisturizer on your face. I use shea butter cuz it's not greasy. That proactive is really what you need. Use it everyday, twice a day if you want to. Your skin WILL improve. Just be gentle with it and keep it clean and moisturized.
