hi PJP! i really hope you can help solve my problem.
to begin with, i am only 15 and seeing as i'm in my teens, it is only common to suffer from break-outs and pimples. i have a lot of pimples on ym forehead - nowhere else. this is probably seeing as my t-zone is oily and my cheeks are dry. therefore, i have been using a rich moisturiser daily - is this wrong?
secondly, i have been applying honey-lemon on my face regularly.. but the lemon doesn't seem to get rid of the pimples? pleaseee could you give me some advice on what to do!

much appreciated XxX PJP replied. hi aisha,

the one best way to keep pimples away is to keep skin clean. dont ever let dust and dirt gather up on your skin. that is the reason why you are getting so mush of pimples, specially on the forehead, as it not only is oily, it also sweats. the dirt, the sweat, the oil alltogether is just enough to develop a few pimples. so, wash your face every third hour with a very mild soap. apply an astringetn everytime you have to step out of home. astringents are inexpensive and available easily. effective on oily skin too. for the pimples on the forehead, apply the paste of neem every morning and night. in the morning, leave it on for 1/2 hour or so and at night, leave it overnight and wash off in the morning. at your age, this will be just the thing to cure pimples and stop recurrence. yes, lemon and honey application will work in due course. mix neem, lemon, honey and turmeric and apply. this also can be good.

all my love,
priya.
