at the age of 12, how can you stop your face from breaking out when you have your period?

Im only 12 and my face breaks out alot when I get my period. and I have it this week. does anyone have any ideas on how I can stop it before it starts?

there isn't really any thing you could do....you have break outs because of the hormones in your body.....you can take the pill but you are a bit too young for that

if you wash your face regularly, that helps a little. but hon, hormones play a huge role in pimple breakouts when you're on your period. sorry. i know that may sound harsh, but i've had to deal with it since i was 12. i feel your pain. in fact, i'm going through the same exact thing right now! just wash your face every day (don't overwash it, that will make it dry out) and try a spot treatment that contains salicylic acid. that helps a lot, too! =)

Drink at least 2 litres of water a day (gradually. just always have water to sip around you!)

After shower, get some baby powder and poof a little onto your face. This helps soak up the oil and leaves your face nice and dry for a longer time.

Avoid using cleansers/moisturizers/facials, this will ALWAYS make pimples worse!!! If you do insist on using one, stick to only ONE and use it forever... changing too much will fuck your skin up :)
