I have a really important event coming, so i have to cover some acne on my forehead.. what to use to cover them without making it even worse? helppp

Scientific Rx: I see that you are already using a combination of Azelaic Acid and Erythromycin solution on your forehead, and that this is not working adequately. Your physician may switch you to a systemic antibiotic and/or increase the topical treatment. In the long run, you may be cleared by the oral contraceptive pill if you can take it, or added topical spironolactone. Best wishes.
