Complexion Perfection: Fight Acne and Hide Pimples Like a Pro
Jack Miskell
Slide 1 of 6
Sweat and dirt can bring on breakouts, but that's no reason to bench your workout. Instead, try these skin-saving solutions from top dermatologists to zap zits for good.
Pimple Problem: Blackheads That Won't Budge
Clear Fix: Those dark dots, often found on your T-zone, "can be precursors to pimples," says Francesca Fusco, MD, a dermatologist in New York City. The oil in the pore attracts bacteria. Dead skin can further clog the pore, causing a whitehead. At night, sop up sebum and exfoliate with a pad presoaked in glycolic or salicylic acid.
What to Use: Glotherapeutics GloClear Complexion Pads ($34, gloskincare.com). Or use a mask that contains both ingredients (we like Dr. Brandt Pores No More Vacuum Cleaner, $45, sephora.com).

3/11/2010 11:21:03 PM Report AbuseSomething a little less expensive is the Neutrogena Blackhead Eraser. It comes with the little pads and it works wonders for blackheads AND pimples.
