Cystic acne is considered to be the most severe type of acne. Not only are cystic lesions unsightly, but they're also painful and not easily gotten rid of. According to Allure Magazine, cystic pimples don't contain a core of dead skin or pus. That means if you try to squeeze one, it won't work. Instead, you get trauma and more inflammation, leading to scarring and skin discoloration. If you can't run to a dermatologist for a quick cortisone injection, start by putting ice on the cystic lesion for a few seconds, then moisturize. Then, apply both salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide ointments. The former should be at around 1.5 to 2 percent. The latter should be at around 2.5 percent. Finally, top it off with some oil-free moisturizer, and mask redness with a green color-correcting concealer. Good luck!
Did you know that you have a garbage disposal living in your bed? People shed 15 million skin cells a night, which end up on your pillowcase and in your sheets. Dust mites eat these cells. And the longer you wait to wash your bed linens, the more they have to eat--and the more time they have to multiply. Yuck! Dust mites and their feces produce proteins that cause red, itchy eyes, and runny noses in allergic people. Fungus can also build up on bedlinens. One study found a typical pillow has as many as 16 different fungi. Another found dirty linens have several thousand times more bacteria than a toilet seat. Dirty sheets can also act as a giant, dirty makeup wipe. Oils and cosmetics that rub off on the pillowcase get transferred back, clogging the pores and causing acne. To avoid all this, just wash your sheets at least once a week, using the hottest water possible. That'll kill plenty of those gross creepy-crawlies. By the way, Business Insider reports one survey revealed 55% of single men between 18 and 25 changed their sheets just four times a year. Yikes!
