uhh what is this?

I have normal skin, never had a pimple/zit, get about 2 blackheads every other month, pretty sensitive skin, and lots of pink under tone in my cheeks, but I have these little red patches on my lower cheek (one on each side, there about 1/2" by 1/2") there not a huge deal but I want to know what they are and how to get rid of them?! Thanks!

Those red/pink patches are most likely this thing called rosacea. It's when someone has natural pink spots, it's not harmful and I don't think you can get ride of it. But just think, you'll never have to wear blush! :)

its probably an allergic reaction to something. Think about the products youve been using lately

I have this too, if your talking about what I think you are then it's something called keratosis pilaris. I have them on my cheeks and on the backs of my arms. The thing that stinks about keratosis pilaris is that you can't get rid of it completely ( at least it was that Way with my cousin hopefully it will be different for you), but you can reduce the appearance of it drastically. You should look into seeing a dermatologist and getting a prescription. Like i said my cousin has this and she went to a dermatologist and now the only way you can see this on her is if you look really closely at her. Hope I could help, good luck!!
