transThis may be kinda OT since it's not directly trans-related..but I was sure I could get help here seeing as I know there are members on hormones and giong through a "second puberty", if you will.
I wanted to ask about pimple treatment.
To start off, I'm not on hormones of anykind.
See, I've always had decent skin, but a few pimples here and there, the usual. But on friday morning I woke up with mountain sized zits all over my face. Like.. in all 100% seriousness, Over night I got a good 7-11 huge, disgusting pimples all. over. Like forehead, upper lip, chin, nose. Like this is vile and I've never even had one pimple like this, and I have no idea why they should just come *pop* over night.
I have one thought - maybe it's that I'm not used to the weather? I left Canada in Spring, went to New Zealand where it's been winter, and returned here to immediate 30 + Celsius weather non-stop. Could that have something to do with it? Whatever.
Also... I was on meds for a kidney infection.. but had an alergic reaction and got hives, ew. I thought that's what was on my face, but hives don't get big chunky, crusty white-heads right?
I know there's someone who's probably frustrated with their hormone-induced acne as well, so ahhh someone, what is a good product/what can I do about this? It's seriously really bad and it literally happened over night. I shower daily and wash my face daily but I've never had to use any actual acne treatment. This is really gross and it's never happened to me so I really need some advice please?
