Zits.....

OMG , I have a face like a teenager !
At nearly 50 I have big red ugly pimples all over my face, what is going on ?
Has anyone else had problem skin whilst quitting ?
How long will it last ?
Desperate

Hi yes it does happen, it is the body detoxing and the skin clearing itself.

Hello, Yes yes yes that's me my face has lots of really sore big red pimples. They are large ones with lots of puss too its been horrible (apologies for description) I was going to ask others to see if they had experiences similar side affects. I had thought to myself it must be all the toxins. I'm hoping they don't scare too much. When they heal I will be getting a good microdermabrasion facial. I'm having a dry February too off the grog as Aussie Day I drank way too much and I don't think that has helped my system. Day 10 smoke free though so very proud, keep up your good work though, Im sure they will clear too :)

At least its coming out of our body that's one positive! Cheer up at least we are pimple faces together - I'm sure it won't last too long

Smokey2 after using nearly a tube of clearasil it seems to be clearing up slowly.
Thank god for makeup : )
