first, I should precise that in my
childhood I have suffered from redundant
skin problems eczema and others. Btw I am
a male
i was busy over the past 7 years, did not
take much care of my face skin, now it is
time to do something since I start to look
really oldie and scary even that I am only
27 y.O
first problem: on the tip of my nose,
there are considerable pores containing
spots of un-grown hair. How can I remove
these pores and these un-grown hair
roots?
Second problem: really my face texture
looks like having an upper skin layer
subdivided into small four-sided polygon:
quadrilateral, with sort a skinny spot in
the centre. Is there any product to get
rid of this problem, to soften and smooth
the skin? I have also a shaded brow with
remarkable furrows
being in mess, needing some advices and
products which could preferably purchased
from boots or superdrug
thanks to you all

Hi.Firstly may I say that it is essential
to take care of your skin because if you
dont it ends up looking a mess! I can
help with your first problem.I doubt that
what your seeing in in grown hair as
people generally dont have hair on their
noses! In grown pores (which is what your
referring to) are caused by a build up of
dirt which can (in time) be cured by
gentle exfoliation. By exfoliating (with
something containing walnut kernel or
something similar) the trapped dirt can be
released.Places such as boots/superdrug
stock many exfoliating products & I
know the st ives do a good facial
scrub-these products are generally aimed
at women but if you look in the men's isle
im sure you'll find something suitable.
Another recommendation (you need to get in
touch with your femmine side for this
) is to use a
facial steamer which work wonders in
opening up the pores. Also drink plenty
of water to hydrate your skin.I hope this
was of some use.I cant help with the
second problem only to say that perhaps
you should talk to a dermatlogist who can
recommend something.

Hi,
you might want to check out the eczema
forum for more info about that, but what
worked for my skin is 3 main things 1)
taking herbs (sunrider herbs. Check it
this product out online) 2) exfoliating
with a sponge (not on your face, but on
your body to get rid of dead skin that
clogs your pores 3) this one is important
wash your hair in the sink. I know you're
a male, but the chemicals in shampoo and
in some body washes can really irritate
your skin. Try dove soap and keep
chemicals off your body as best you can.
These things really helped me.
Good luck!
