Does the neutrogena wave cure acne and make your skin clean and soft?
I just got it 2 days ago, so im not really for sure how well it works. It says to change the pad every time you use it, but I use the same pad in the morning, and then before I go to bed, and then I change it. So I change the pad after 2 uses. But I love Neutrogena Wave because it makes my skin soft and clean, its easy to use, and to me it smells good. But the pads can be expensive though, its $10 for a thirty pack of pads for it. But yes, I think it works great.
Why do pimples appear on my butt?
Moisture is often a cause of pimples, clogged pores. If your toddler has pimples on the buttalks, I would suggest using a anti-bacterial soap on the buttalks only. Make sure to change diapers frequently to prevent extra moisture. Sometimes pimples can be caused by a rash, it can be caused by the brand of diapers, or laundry soap even. It's best to leave the pimples alone, do not scrub or bother them, and wash the buttalks often, with the anti-bacterial soap to clean and dry them out.
How can you get rid of the scars left on your face from where pimples used to be?
There are numerous things that are available nowadays to help get rid and even conceal red marks "scarring" left over from mild acne. The most powerful and effective is dermabrasion. (A dermatologist will exfoliate your upper dermis to help rid you of scars and create a more even skin tone). You can purchase at home kits (not as effective, but WAY cheaper and gentler to the skin). Using skin care products that promote evening out of the complection is also a good start. Concealers that have a green under tone help rid your skin of redness while waiting for your face to improve. ( ask the cosmetics dept). Last but not least, time will eventually improve your skin"s tone with proper care. You will also want to avoid alcohol, acids, and chemical solutions. Alcohols, salicylic acid, Retina-A, and benzoyl peroxide, actually dry the skin; and because they are synthetic, acne-causing bacteria become immune to the chemically created solutions. Why? Because chemical solutions are created to treat the type of bacteria they sought to treat that was in existence when the solutions were made. Unfortunately, bacteria are living organisms and they learn to mutate quickly. When mutation occurs, salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide fail. They also are harsh on the skin and create more scars.
Scars are made up of fibrous tissue, which is a result of skin repair. It is still live tissue, but it is not as good as the skin that was there before the injury.
Are there any kind of non-steroid anti-inflammatory topical acne cream?
no its just spotts dont worry they probly not gonna go If your acne is severe use Differin. If its mild acne you can use Retin-A
Anything you smoke cause's acne. It clogs your pores and could harm your complection, not good.
yes weed does have its medicinal purposes, which is mostly from the THC. When you smoke it though you are smoking so much other crap that's not important so that can be very bad for your health. This is why making cookies or brownies is better for you. Also a vaporizer is much better than actually lighting the weed because a vaporizer only heats the weed to a very high temperature, thus creating vapors for you to inhale, which is much better for the lungs as well. Maybe when if I get clear from Wai's diet, freeacnebook.com , I will try smoking some weed, then I will compare the results to cooking with it.
Ahh.. getting high for educational purposes.. Don't try this at home kids...
As far as I'm concerned, marijuana smoke has nothing to do with acne. Unless one has poor hygiene, acne shouldn't depend on how much marijuana is smoked or consumed. So no, it does not cause acne.
no you just stress about it because its illegal and the stress gives you it.
No.
Traits do. So, if your parents had it, then you will too. It has nothing to do with eating or smoking bad things. But you shouldn't smoke marijuana anyhow
There are no studies that have linked acne to marijuana. Nevertheless, always keep your skin clean
Marijuana aggravates acne because it lowers testosterone levels then raises these levels producing an imbalance in hormones.

How do you cure a pimple or acne without buying medication?
In my opinion it has nothing to do with chocolate, sex, etc. There are many medications now for the treatment of acne, they are available from your family doctor of dermatologist. Topical antibioitcs is often the first choice, systemic antibiotics (Tetracycline or Vibramycin) are most commonly used, topical retinoic acid also works(signicant redness and irritation initially are common), of you are female certain oral contraceptives show dramatic improvement (specifically Ortho Tri Cyclen or the generic equivalent is often my first choice in women with no contraindications to birth control pills. There are few side effects, unlike many of the other options and the results are usually significant improvement. Sometimes more than one drug must be used in severe cases. The other option is Accutane, it dries the oil glands in your skin, but has a list of side effects a mile long, including serious birth defects. Many people notice improvement with use of tanning beds, this also dries the skin, but cannot be used with certain antibiotics and other medications.
Some recommendations: Proactiv is a relatively new over the counter medication, some people report success with its use. Proactiv, I use it and it has done wonders for me not only does it clear up your acne it makes your skin soft and moisturized also. It is relatively cheap and very worth it. Other than that I suggest washing your face regularly with a hot, wet towel and then after the hot towel use a someone cool, wet towel on your face because this closes the pours and helps to keep dirt from getting inside.
Zenmed's Body Acne Combo Kit which is a botanical treatment which is specifically meant for clearing body acne. The kit contains two products, a botanical mask and a botanical acne wash. The mask is applied on the affected region before a shower and in the shower the mask is washed off with the acne wash and water. One to two weeks of using this treatment will see the back clear of any signs of acne. Remember to have a shower if you sweat too much as sweat can clog the pores and make your acne worse.
Remedies For Acne on Your Back: If you are sweating a lot, wash back more often. Also, if your conditioner is really oily, it might increase the 'bacne'...try using a foam conditioner or washing your back after you condition your hair.
Another Suggestion: If "Proactive" can work on your face there is no reason it can't work on your back. My girlfriend had a terrible outbreak of acne on her face for the very first time (in pre menopause) and she tried everything. She finally tried Proactive and it's working.
Take oatmeal baths, and apply apple cider vinegar to bacne about twice a day to get rid of it.
When taking a shower, don't scrub too hard. put any kind of toothpaste over the area. i have tried it and it feels good. I don't know if the toothpaste does anything because i tried it today and i haven't looked at my back since then.
Some people try a tanning bed (but there may be a risk of skin cancer).
Research findings now show that diet is the deepest "cure" for acne. To learn more about this, and what foods you should avoid, see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
What are treatments for acne scars?
I had severe acne, i had to go through great pain with my face for over three years. I went to the GP and asked about it, he started me on a cream for 6 months- didnt work at all, he then gave me some tablets(they werent for severe acne)- so they didnt work after 1 and a half.. Until! He told me to see a dermatoligist finally, so we went to see him and he gave me two choices, the pill, or orratane. Its now 12 months later after many blood tests and quite bad side effects..BUT my face is perfect now, and theres a 80% chance it will never come back. I never expected to because it was so bad, and scaring you can somtimes fix with special creams. == Okay, so I've had acne for the longest time ever, since, like fifth grade, I think. And I've found that the best way to get rid of it, is naturally, because I swear to god I've tried every single product [[pescriptions, over the counter, et cetera, et cetera]] until I got this natural remedies book that had a section on acne. So I was like, whoa this is great, I'm totally gonna start rubbing food on my face all the time. Just kidding...but seriously: Wash your face twice a day, once in the morning when you wake up, and once before you go to bed. But, I always wore foundation to try and cover up the fact that I had acne, so if you wear make-up then wash it off sometime in the afternoon, after school or work. Don't use medicated facewash at night, and preferrably just in the morning. And another thing that works very very well, is Apple Cider vinegar. If you dab it on your acne before you go to bed [[for best results once of twice a day]] and leave it on, it works beautifully. But it does burn a bit and makes your eyes water. Also, aloe vera gel, before you go to bed, or lemon juice, or rubbing papaya skin on your face. Just alternate these random things, don't put them all on your face every night. That would take forever and I'm not sure how well it would work. And, there are several other things like honey, honey works really good. But I've tried sleeping with it on my face...It was all over my pillows by the time I woke up. Mixing honey and cinnamon together and putting that on your face for a while, at least thirty minutes works good. Or honey by itself. And even tomatoes. If you dab the excess tomato juice off and leave the slices on your face it works as a toner. Oh yeah and Witch Hazel [[an astringent used for cuts and rashes]] works really well and gets rid of scars too. Actually all the other things I named get rid of scars too, especially apple cider vinegar [[it worked the best for me]]. And vitamin E oil, you can get it at beauty supply stores or health stores like GNC, if you leave that on your face for a long time daily it works well. Even though it feels greasy and gets you all paranoid that it's gonna make you break out, it totally doesn't. Just don't touch your face while it's on there, that probably would make you break out. Also if you mix nutmeg and unboiled milk into a paste and put that on pimples it gets rid of them, leave that on for about thirty minutes. And cucumber juice [[straight from cucumbers, I guess]] prevents acne, and makes your skin all fresh looking. And I guess I wouldn't recommend this for a lot of people who are not that immune to pain, but Horse Radish Sauce clears up your skin really well, but do it about once a week, just put it on your pimples and leave it on for about thirty minutes. Although it burns A LOTT for a few minutes and makes your eyes water insanely. And I also have tried putting soy sauce on my face, that works too. But you can also drink things that make your skin clear up, and if you drink them continuously, I'm sure they keep your acne from springing up. If you drink about 2 table spoons of apple cider vinegar about three times a day [[mixed with cranberry juice b/c it's disgusting without]], and drink green tea a lot, about 3-4 glasses a day, preferrably decaf. That works insanely well, it clears it up b/c of the anti-oxidants and prevents it, and it makes your skin tone even and clears up scars, also. And you can conveniently rub that used warm tea bag on your face and that works really great on acne and tightens pores and makes your face pretty, somewhat like a foundation. Also, I know it sounds cliche but drinking eight glasses a day. Idk, I think it has something to do with keeping your liver dehydrated which gives it more time to actually work better and clear out toxins better. And all of these things together can actaully help you lose weight too, without even dieting. It's crazy... But try not to dry your face out too much, don't go insane and start torturing your skin with this newly learned information. == Try these simple remedies: Wash your face with lukewarm water. You could opt for Neem based soap, Neem is known to be a good remedy for all skin related problems.
Apply fenugreek leaves paste over the face every night for sometime and wash with lukewarm water.
Usage of Aloe Vera is also suggested for Acne
Make sure that you wash off all the make-up cosmetics that have been applied before going to bed.
Applying paste of honey & cinnamom powder before sleeping & washing it off the next morning is also a good remedy
If your skin is not sensitive, you could apply lemon juice overnight and wash it of the next morning.
Wash your face with unboiled milk & gram flour
Avoid using hot or cold water on your face. Facial skin is one of the most sensitive parts of your skin and should never be washed with anything else than lukewarm water. Hot water will burn the outer layers and cause the pores to open up too much, thereby exposing yourself to even more danger. Cold water, on the other hand will force the pores to contract and you will no longer be able to clean them, thus defeating the purpose of washing. Read the full article by following the link below.

No, peroxide doesn't get rid of acne. Over time, it will make the pores too dry and prevent healing.

Yes. When you rip it off it is going to bleed. This blood will contain the wart virus and you may spread it elsewhere. Also it is going to grow back. Warts have a very deep root structure. You need to see a doctor to have it frozen or zapped.
The above is not 100% true. First, warts to not actually have 'roots' - rather, they grow via blood vessel, hence the reason why they bleed so badly when you rip them out. I have ripped warts out of my foot, and they never came back. Also, I have seen a doctor regarding my wart problems (all over my hands) and he told me to keep doing what I am doing (trying every method in the book, including wasting my money on Dr Scholl's and using apple cider vinegar) He told me that every time I do a 'treatment' of any kind, I am killing more of the wart. So no, you do not HAVE to see a doctor.
How do they make an elephant disappear at the circus?
Magicians do not reveal how it is EXACTLY they perform their art, but usually it is an illusion. This means it is a trick of the eye. Having the elephant on a drop platform, or turning vehicle of some sort. The magician then makes a flutterof his amrs then at the same time, as he distracts viewers, he turns the vehicle the elephant is on, making it look like the elephant has disappeared. Even the use of mirrors can create the illusion of something being there one minute then gone the next. Its all up to the magician, and they don't reveal their secrets as no-one will come back to watch them.
What acne products does Miley Cyrus use?

yes there is a thing called puppy warts. They can get them on their faces around their mouth. This is common in Boxers and other short snouted breeds. It is called canine papilloma virus and is contagious, but like the chicken pocks in humans once they have it they cannot get it again. it looks just like a wart we would get with a cauliflower like head. Most websites will tell you they will go away in 4-6 weeks, but the problem is they can spread, and the issue is it can go into their mouth and into their throat. There is a natural remedy to get rid of the warts that you would buy in any natural food store. Lysine, is what it is called. depending on the size of your puppy you just have them take a pill a day and it helps remove the warts. please check with your vet if you have any questions....
What causes white film on tongue?
My mom and I both have this problem and when she asked her dentist, he said it is an allergic reaction to SLS's which are anionic surfactants used in whitening toothpastes and among 90% of personal care products that foam. If your mouth is doing this is means you are allergic and you need to switch to a product that does not contain any form of Sodium Lauryl/eth Sulfates. Our dentist recommended sensodyne pronamel. There is a great website called Skin Deep www.cosmetics.org that breaks down every product you use on your body and tells you what's actually in them as toothpastes don't have to list all ingredients. Hope this is helpful:)

Do girls care if a guy has a couple of pimples?
A couple meaning two or three or a couple meaning a couple here and there and over here. Depends on the girl. Why not try this little trick and its right in your bathroom. Use a washcloth and soap, pat dry your face and apply toothpaste. The white kind works the best. You can do this before you go to be and they usually dry up in a few days. There are medicine's at the stores astringent pads, that have alcohol on them to dry up the pimples and creams, too. I wouldn't care. I mean, if you have a cute face underneith, it sometimes makes me feel empathy for a guy and there's even more of a chance that I'll think he's hot. seriously. as long as he doesnt let it affect his self-confidence
Oil is a lubricant that is used to reduce friction, heat and dirt. It can be used to perform work in the case of hydraulics. The properties of it are:
1. Liquid
2. Viscosity (and this can be changed.)
3. Slippery
When it is produced by natural processes and brought out of the ground, it has none of the properties that are needed for practical use. It has to be refined and chemicals are added to achieve the desired specifications.
