Controlling break-outs before the big event

• Drink plenty of water
• Get loads of rest
• Avoid fatty and sugary foods

If you do have a breakout:

• Don’t use anything oily on your skin like an oil based moisturiser
• Try Benzoyl Peroxide, Retinols, AHA, BHA and Stieva-A Cream
• Drown the blemish in whitening or red-reducing eye drops
• After extracting a whitehead, immediately apply Hydrogen Peroxide (7-10 percent strength). If you apply this twice on the first day the whitehead appears, it will sterilize the area, preventing further infection. Apply with a cotton bud for 10 seconds then wash off.
