   There are several factors that could contribute to persistent pimples on your forehead, even with a healthy diet and skincare routine. Here are a few possibilities to consider:

   1. Hormones: Hormonal fluctuations can lead to breakouts, especially around the forehead area. This is common during puberty, menstrual cycles, or other hormonal changes.

   2. Stress: High stress levels can trigger the production of hormones like cortisol, which may lead to increased oil production and breakouts.

   3. Dietary Factors: While you mention having a good appetite and healthy diet, certain foods can still trigger acne in some individuals (like dairy or high-glycemic foods).

   4. Hair Products: If you use hair products like gels, oils, or sprays, they can sometimes clog pores and contribute to forehead breakouts.

   5. Touching Your Face: Frequent touching of your forehead or resting your face in your hands can transfer bacteria and oils, leading to acne.

   6. Skincare Products: Even with a good routine, some ingredients might not suit your skin type or could be too heavy, leading to clogged pores.

   7. Skin Conditions: Sometimes conditions like acne vulgaris or folliculitis can cause persistent breakouts.

   If you’re concerned, it might be helpful to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and potentially develop a tailored treatment plan.
