I think I copied this info from Cosmo magazine.....

ACNE TYPE
Blackheads
These are enlarged, dark pores stuffed with oil, dead cells, and bateria.

TREATMENT
A cream with salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or retinol will dissolve the pore clogging debris.

TRY
Neutrogena Pore Refining Cream,
$13

Whiteheads
A buildup of black-head-fighting white blood cells causes these white bumps.

Treatment
Use the cream plus an anti-bacterial face wash, which will help curb white blood cell activity.

TRY
Clearasil Daily Face Wash
$5

Pimples
They occur when a whitehead bubbles up with even more greasy goop.

Treatment
Spot-treat the blemish with a zit-bursting cream armed with benzoyl peroxide to kill bacteria.

TRY
Clean and Clear Persa-Gel
$5

Cysts
These hard, painful bumps form when a pimple burrows beneath your skin.

Treatment
If you suffer from cysts, see a dermatologist to consider a prescription-strength remedy.

cysts...wow. I didn't know that definition. I have a lump on the top of my finger and I used to think it was a cyst. Guess not...
 
I found out what it is, it's a callus from where I hold my pencil/pen whatever. It's really annoying, but it doesn't hurt. Odd that I never realized that you could get calluses from holding a pen. Heh!
 
My fiance made fun of me for getting a callus from painting with a roller. he says I'm too delicate! LOL
His hands stand up to pretty much anything!

Hey, I just noticed that there are adds for acne and stuff on this page. I guess they see everything we write huh?
 
LOL Christina that's too funny!

Calluses ugh I have one on both of my big toes in the exact same spot from taking gymnastics classes and walking barefoot on the floor and stuff. Ugh i bet you guys are glad i shared huh? They drive me nuts! I have cute feet otherwise LOL well, as cute as feet could be anyway!

Yes not all cysts are like that, that's for sure! I've had other types...NOT FUN trust me!
 
you're lucky to have cute feet. Mine are ugly! LOL Bet you wanted to know that huh? They used to be cute, but I'm was ALWAYS barefoot and I tend to walk on the sides of my feet causing bunyons or something... LMAO~

I'm gonna buy these face products and see if they work....
I also am buying some foot lotion! LOL called Bare Feet I think... It worked b4, nice soft feet. LOL
 
I have my dad's feet...wide...and ugly. With huge calluses on my big toes. I have hobbit feet, what can I say? :p

Christina and coastergirl, have you tried vitamin E gel for the skin? Mom found some at the dollar store, and every day I'd take a shower and scrub my calluses and then apply some vitamin E to them. After a few days they were really improving! Unfortunatly I keep forgetting to do that, so now they're hard and icky again. B^
 
oooh! I gotta go to the dollar store. Always nice to find a reason to go.
Phil HATES HATES HATES the dollar store.
Hobbit feet huh? Yup, mine are lookin a little hobbit-like!
LMAO
 
I like dollar stores if they're REAL dollar stores...like Dollar Tree, and Giant dollar.

I would say w00t for hobbit feet, but they're only fun if they're prosthetic...heh :D
 
Somthing that is VERY good for the skin is flax seed oil. (you get it at the health food store). When my daughter is taking it - her skin looks sooo much better.
 
all I hear is good things for Flax ....
