I use to have it kind of bad actually. It came from ketchup that I put on fries/chicken. I used alot xd

I stopped and it cleared up alot. I still have some really minor ones, but that's normal.

You get it from poor hygiene and eating a lot of junk food or fast food.
I dont think its because of poor hygiene as I have always been clean, I have never washed my face, not even as an adolescent, but pimples never came out.. Dont know why they are know..
20 is barely getting out of adolescent to adulthood, so 20 is not far from an adolescent.. thats probably why.. And I dont eat junk food.. I do eat A LOT of tostada chips, and soda though..

I have recently have been asking this myself.. There is the myth that its because when you get really excited, and dont take out that sexual tension, pimples come out(that thats why teenagers are the people that mostly have them), there is the hormonal change, and the its what you eat that gives you pimples theory.. So, which is it? I am 20 years old, and when i was about 14-18 I never had a pimple problem, but now at this age im getting more than when I was in my fifteens
Pimples accure either from stress, from not washing your face/body thoroughly enough, through genes ( naturally oily/sensitive skin), or hormonal change (which can not only come from puperty but also stress etc). Pimples can even form from your diet. Like chocolate is said to cause out breaks/make them worse, as well as being over hydrated. Even though you are 20, you are still growing. Men are not fully grown until about 23 (if i remember correctly). You could be under more stress then usual or you may not be washing your face good enough, thus clogging your pores and creating pimples. There are many reasons on why you are breaking out more. Also you CAN pop them, you just can't pop one that isn't 'ready' if its a white head it doesnt take much force to pop- thuse it will not scare. Being a girl- I pop mine I get them and then wash my face. So far I have not had scarring because of it. But anyways- if it really bothers you go to the derma. they can give you meds/ ideas on what to do to make your break outs not as bad/ go away.

if they are going away without much effort on your part then they are probably from stress.

Wow yeah, everyone has pretty much said why they appear. If they really bother you that much or you're embarassed at having them at your age, you can get creams or like... Meds of some kid to reduce/ get rid of them ... If you want.

They are caused by oil on the face, like having long hair and it continuously swiping your face and making it oily.

You can also get it from too much hair product.

If you wash you face with cheap soap then it should help as cheap soap does not have SPF in it, so it doesn't keep your face moisturized, it actually dry's it out.

I also heard that the cream pro active works miracles for people. I'm over the pimple stage but i wish we had the stuff that there is now, way back then.
