Off Topic - but I need help!

Not sure if there is another board that I should post this too...I'm getting married 8-29.  I'm hoping someone can help me...Fortunately I was blessed with good skin.  OF COURSE, with a little over 3 weeks to go my face has decided to break out like crazy.  Not only that, but I'm getting the ones that are huge underneath and very painful.  Since I don't normally deal with this I'm utterly helpless.  Does anyone have advice for anything I can use to help with this?  Thanks so much!!

I'm like you, I have very good skin but every once in a while in times of great stress one miraculously pops up under the skin.  I use something by Aveeno...it might be called Aveeno Spot Corrector or something?  It comes in a narrow tube, and you're supposed to put it on like 3-4 times a day, and it should help clear it up within 3 days.  I usually go a little more, put it on 5-6 times a day, and most zits are gone within 2 days for me that way.You can also try to go to a dermatologist, and they can give you a shot of cortizone at the actual pimple site to make them go away.

I know exactly what you mean! I get them in stressful times! Aveeno has lots of great products out there. I use a face wash in the shower and also a spot treatment.

OMG...My face has started to break out all around my chin. Its the ones like you described that are very painful. I'm getting married  in 14 days and I bought Neutrogena's Rapid Clear treatment pads. On the bottle it said it reduces breakouts in 8 hrs. I just bought it last night so I will see how it works and let you know. My face hardly ever breaks out. I may get one here and there when its that time of the month, but nothing like I'm experiencing now!!!
