Hello doctor, I am sristy and around 10 months ago I was having acne vulgaris. My face was covered with acne and cysts and I consulted a doctor for that. He game me some wonderful medicines that worked really good for my acne. after 2 months of use my acne was fully gone but I had acne scars so my doctor told me to go for salicylic chemical peeling and after that I no longer had any scar. Well my skin got extremely glowing and beautiful and I love my skin but recently I realized that whenever I put on makeup for just 1 day or 4-5 hours, comedones starts to appear on my face the next day. I do not know why this is happening. Please tell me what you think about my situation and how can I stop my face getting comedones every time I put my makeup. The medicines my doctor prescribed were: ?lacne foaming facewash ?tretinoin gel 0.25% ?erypton gel ? aquasoft fc moisturizer ? acne uv sunscreen. As per my doctor I got acne at the first place for clogged skin which was caused due to makeup and not cleansing it properly. So when my skin got rid of all acne I started to avoid makeup as much as possible. I only apply makeup on special occasions but I still get comedones on my face the following day.

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. These factors can trigger or aggravate acne: hormones, certain medications, diet, stress. To prevent pimples, eat fresh fruits, green vegetables, drinking plenty of water should be an essential part of your routine and intake of oily fried foods, an excess of sugar-salt should be avoided. Don't peal pimples, as they tend to leave scars. Stop using soap on face. Instead take a spoon of milk, add a pinch of turmeric (haldi). Mix n apply on face with the help of cotton. Leave for a few minutes then wash off. It?s a good cleanser. If skin is dry then apply moisturizer like coconut oil. For swollen pimples, gently apply ice for a minute or so. Just don't keep the ice on so long that it irritates your skin. Tea tree oil can kill bacteria. Some people use it to treat minor skin irritations, including acne. There isn't much research on how effective it is, but tea tree oil is safe to put directly on your skin in a diluted form. Try it on a small area first to make sure you don't have an allergic reaction. Simple honey mask--before applying this mask, rinse your face with warm water to open up pores. Then apply honey and leave it on the skin for 30 minutes. Rinse the honey off with warm water; then rinse again with cold water to close the pores. Yeast and yogurt mask for oily skin--oily skin is prone to acne, and this home remedy can reduce excess oil and help clear acne. To make the mask, combine 1 teaspoon of brewer's yeast with a little plain yogurt to create a thin mixture. Apply it thoroughly to all the oily areas and leave on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse with warm water; then use cold water to close the pores.Homeopathy is a very effective for this problem n has very encouraging results. For more details consult online.
