As a teenager, we thought drying out our pimple prone skin would make the oil go away, thus, zapping zits too. Though the logic was there, the facts weren't.

Everyone wants a quick fix and a two-in-one product. We're happy to say in toothpaste, you might just have found your miracle product...

This one is a Style Lie. Sorry to burst your bubble but prolonged sun exposure is not good for your skin in any way.

Most women use foundation on a daily basis. However, many don't know that their product could be doing a hell of a lot more than they bargained for.

Find a foundation that not only matches your tone but also helps with your skin's most basic needs.

There is no denying the truth behind the phrase, "You are what you eat." A perfect example is the huge zit you always get after housing a greasy pizza. You can also put a positive spin on the saying and change the way you eat for good.

Summer is the best time to kick start better eating habits for your skin, hair, body, and even your mind. There is so much juicy fruit and yummy grilled chicken around that it's easier to say no to macaroni salad and the ice cream man.

If time has proven anything it is that Ponce de León was way off mark. Aside from the bikinis washed upon the shoreline of Miami the closest thing to a Fountain of Youth in Florida has big mouse ears on it. Those cars with the New York plates? Those people aren't young, Ponce.

No, the Fountain of Youth can be found on me -- on my face to be exact. You see, I'm closer to 40 30 than I have any right being, and yet I have enough blemishes and pimples to be invited to prom or tested for steroids. Sure, it's kind of fun being the guy that can buy beer at the dance, but testifying before Congress? That's lame.

That's why I tried Advantage Acne Spot Treatment by Clean & Clear. It is a salicylic acid acne medication. Yeah, that doesn't mean anything to me either. However, it also claims, right on the tube, that it "won't overdry skin," which is good. The only thing worse than having a big pimple on your face is having a big pimple on your lizard face. That's awkward.

All I know is that it works. Fast. I've got a tux to rent and a corsage to buy. I can't afford to worry about my complexion.

It doesn't matter how old or young you are, no one likes to get blemishes. Recently blemishes were practically attacking my skin and I had been actively seeking a skincare solution. I was able to find one miracle product; unfortunately that product seriously broke the bank. I needed something effective that I could afford.

Enter the most unlikely source of blemish relief, Neosporin. My best friend's aunt drunkenly slipped me a tube of the "white stuff" during a Christmas party and told me she 'just handed me the ultimate beauty secret.'

At the time I had no idea that her crazy secret just might work. A few days later I sprouted a nasty pimple on my chin and reached for my tube of "white stuff." I slathered the Neosporin on my chin and waited for a miracle. Two days later my blemish was history and with no scaring left behind.

Get this miracle in a tube at your local drugstore for less than $6.
