Hello,
I have tried this obvious method consistently and the pimples still show up. Even if I thoroughly wash my face and the mouthpiece. I would not consider myself a person with excessive acne (I have some like most teenagers) but when I play tuba it is almost inevitable that they will break out. I assume that it must be the mouthpiece's fault because it is VERY scratched up but I want to make sure. New mouthpieces are expensive.
Besides, the problem with all-states that I'm worried about is that I will not get to wash my face often because the band will be constantly practicing for 21+ hours throughout the course of two days. This obviously will make the problem ten times worse than on the average day. I was hoping that there would be some method (maybe a product) I could use during the rehearsal while the tubas are not playing to clean my face or the mouthpiece. Any new input?

Thanks,
Fei Huang
