Having acne can be pretty depressing. Especially if you are an adolescent. Being a teenager can be hard enough without a breakout of angry red spots to contend with.

So here’s a light-hearted quiz , which will hopefully provide some useful info for those of you who are suffering from the dreaded acne monster!

1. You are planning an evening out with your friends and you expect a boy/girl you fancy to be there but you’ve got a nasty breakout of spots on your forehead. Do you

a) Plaster your forehead with concealing makeup
b) Go out anyway, wear a cap and hope that the meetup place will be fairly dark
c) Stay home and feel sorry for yourself

2) Every time you eat junk food it makes your skin get worse, but you love all that McDonalds & Burger King stuff. Do you

a) Try pizza instead because it’s not quite as bad for you
b) Decide right now that you’re going to stop eating that junk because it makes your acne so much worse
c) Eat more of it because you like the taste of it so much and you’ve resigned yourself to the fact that you’ll always be spotty

3) You keep hearing from people about natural acne remedies, so do you

a) Go around the kitchen and the garden gathering up fruit & veg, mush it all up in a bowl and plaster the resulting goo on your face
b) Go to a health store and try and find an acne remedy containing all natural ingredients
c) Ignore the advice and eat another donut

OK, so for every question where you answered a give yourself two points, for every b give yourself 5 points and for every c minus 10!

How did you do?

10 to 15 points: Excellent, well done! You should be well on the way to clearing up your acne and if not, at least you have a positive attitude!

0 to 15 points: Hmm, well at least you’re trying, although you might be a bit misguided. Don’t worry though, things will hopefully improve.

-30 to 0 points: Oh dear. Console yourself with the fact that there’s worse things in life than acne!
