also i recommend you buy a bottle of tea tree oil [it works trust me there was a big improvement in my acne the the first time i used it. you can buy it at CVS or Wal Mart or Walgreens. you put it on a cotton ball or cotton pad and put a thin layer of it on your face. (you may feel a tingling sensation on your face for up to a minute or half a minute [first couple times] ) and it’s cheaper than spending $30.00 plus shipping and handling on proactive

Zit Prevention Plan
Preventing zits…Steps to stop the eruptions
Here are some tips on reducing and preventing zits. But remember, even if you practice good hygiene and have healthy eating habits, chances are you’ll break out at some point. It’s normal.
1. Wash
Wash your skin morning and night with a gentle cleanser that cleans your pores without drying your skin (don’t use grainy, harsh scrubs since these can actually cause acne). i recommend you use neutragena pink grape fruit oil free acne wash.
2. T-zone
Some areas of your face, like your forehead, nose, and chin (often called the T-zone because it’s shaped like the letter T) might be oilier than the rest of your face. So treat it differently: wash it with a non-oily cleanser.
3. Water
Drink a lot of water. It helps flush away impurities.
4. Foods
Although foods cannot cause zits, some people find that what they eat affects their skin. So say hello to healthy food, like fresh fruit and veggie snacks and see-you-later to chocolate and greasy foods like french fries and buttered popcorn. If you think you get zits after eating certain foods, keep a list and avoid eating too much of them or eating them at all.
5. Relax!
Anxiety and stress can cause the adrenal glands to make more hormones, which can cause zits to suddenly pop up. You have a lot going on in your life, but try to take time out for a walk or yoga or whatever works for you.
steps for how to stop biting nails
1. Confront your problem. Get a camera and take some pictures of your bitten fingernails. Examine your nails, and list their problems.
2. Visualize yourself with healthy nails, and how great they will look.
3. Pick at least one nail to “protect” at a time.
* After a few days, an non-bitten nail will flourish and reward you. Do not bite it. If you must, bite one of the ‘unprotected’ ones. Sometimes it elps knowing that you have another nail to bite, even if you don’t actually nibble at any unprotected ones.
* Once you have grown your non-bitten nail for a while, start protecting another one. And another. And another, until every single nail is protected.
4. Record your progress in a notebook or photo album. Take “before and after” photos of your nails and put them in the book to keep you motivated. Recognizing that it usually takes three weeks to grow nails half a centimeter, chart out in the book how long you want your nails to be by a certain date.
*
o Example : Today I began protecting my index finger on my right hand. I am now protecting 4 fingers. I almost bit my nails when I was in maths period with Mr. McKenzie droning on about square roots. I played with a bit of playdough under my desk to stop it. My nails are 1.4 cm long and I want my nails to be at 1.7 cm on March the 5th.
5. Eat calcium and magnesium – rich foods so that your nails will repair and grow well. Not only that, but most of the reason that the human body wants to bite nails is the lack of calcium and magnesium in the body and the body needs that material back.
6. Push your cuticles back. Many nail-biters do not have “moons” on the base of their fingernails because their cuticles have not been pushed back. To do this, gently push your cuticles towards your finger to reveal more of your nail. This is easier to do after a shower when your hands and nails are wet. This makes the nail appear longer, and it gives a more attractive shape, which might also be a motivation to stop biting.
7. Find a habit to take the place of nail biting. Whenever you have the urge to bite, do that instead. Some people like to drum their fingers, or just stare at their hands. Just make sure it’s not a bad habit; choose a helpful one or one that doesn’t really matter either way. ‘Bitrex’ is a chemical that is put in products to make them taste foul, obtained from your local pharmacy. It’s included in nibble inhibitors that you paint on to your nails. Carry some with you at all times. Apply your nasty solution several times a day. If you get used to the taste, choose another brand.
8. Distract your mouth. Eat carrot sticks to keep you busy. Keep a stick of gum handy for those weak moments.
9. Distract your hands by taking up a hobby.
* A hobby to distract your hands might be making models or maintaining your house, knitting or crochet, running or other outside pursuits, or even nail care and decoration!
* For those whose nail biting is obsessive/compulsive it may help to approach your hobby obsessively.
10. Cover your nails. For females, fit artificial nails. They can really help. For guys, polish them and apply some shine/growth promoter or petroleum jelly. It’s harder to bite nails that are looking great!
* Keep gloves in your back pocket and wear them when you want to bite.
11. If you have any surplus growth, cut your nails back. Keep clippers with you at all times. You can’t bite if there’s nothing there!
12. Speaking about your nails will help to focus your mind on your goals. Ask for help from your partner(s). Keep talking about your goals.
* Show off your improved nails’, and get much-needed encouragement and praise from your peers.
13. Be proud of your improving nails. They will shine with beauty.
14. Go for a manicure, and chat with the manicurist about having great nails.
15. Keep looking after your nails, with cuticle oil, shine and growth promoter, and no biting!
Good Luck I Hoped This Helped!!!!!!!
I’m a hair stylist / cosmetologist. Here are some tips:
cleanse your face with witchhazel. it’s very cheap and works wonders. also, rub slices of cucumber all over your face. Cucumber is great because it helps tone your skin and reduce pore size, but also has a pH level of 5.5 which is also the ideal level for skin.
Also Queen Helene brand Mint Julep mask is great for drying out acne. :]
for nail biting, mix a small amount of tabasco into your top coat. it wont be noticeable, but when you bite your nail it will be! it’s a good way to break the habit.
hope this helps!
toothpaste did not work for me. go to the doc n get a prescription for BENZACLIN its amazing works soooo good. and cheap =) works really fast.
