Sorry, but don't listen to the people who tell you to use toothpaste. It can work for a pimple or two, but it's not for bad acne. (btw, if you do use toothpaste be sure to use plain toothpaste, some whitening toothpastes have acids or other kids of bleach in them for the whitening.) Anyway. Acne is caused by clogged pores caused by oil-producing hormones and bacteria. Here are the most basic steps toward clear skin:
1. Stop touching your face! Quit picking at that zit and don't even think about popping that pimple. You transfer oils and dirt and bacteria from your hands to your face when you touch it, only adding to your problem. Make sure you wash your hands before washing your face with them two.
2. Wash your face. You can wash gently twice a day if you'd like, but let your skin have a break sometimes too.
That's the most basic of plans. If that fails you have three options:
1. Try ProActive, I hear it's foolproof. (But be careful, when your acne clears up stop using it, you'll only be damaging your skin.)
2. Talk to your doctor about getting an antibiotic for your skin, if your acne is caused by bacteria, that's far more foolproof than any facewash
3. You can try birth control, which is known to clear up skin because it controls the hormones that cause oil and clogged pores and all that stuff. But a word of warning: your doctor can't 't prescribe birth control for acne, just as a contraceptive. So tell him you need birth control.
Good luck, I'm sure your acne will clear up in no time. Just have patience. And by the way, there may be no way to completely *cure* your acne, but you can control it.Does anyone know of any home remedies for acne?
Try these home remedies for acne:
鈥?Apply fresh lime juice mixed to a glass of boiled milk as a face wash for pimples.
鈥?Mix lime juice and rose water in equal portions and then apply on affected area. Wash it off after 20-30 minutes with only water.
鈥?Apply tomatoes pulp on pimples and kept up to 1 hour then wash.

Hey!
There are literally LOADS of home remedy treatments for acne out there.
One of the simplest and easiest to do is.. drink water! By drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day, you will flush toxins out through your kidney, instead of out of your skin pores, which could cause acne breakouts. For more information on how water can treat acne; http://www.acne101.co.uk/Drinking-Water-鈥?/a>
Another method is; Green tea (Camellia Sinensis) extract contains high content of Polyphenols. Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), a potent antioxidant is another most important component of green tea.
Green tea has proved to be anti-bacterial that reduces inflammation, decreases hormone activity, capable of killing the potentially deadly Staphylococcus Aureus and the bacteria that cause Bacterium acne.
Green tea's antioxidants have been shown to be highly beneficial to acne prevention. These antioxidants help your body to fight against free radicals that cause damage to cells and tissues in your body. Green tea therapy is less toxic and has fewer or no side effects as compare to other drug based products.
well i have nice skin thanks to my father, but whenever i get a zit coming up i get rubbing alcohol, and a q tip and put rubbing alcohol on it at night then right afterwards i put toothpaste on it. so in the morning it's dried out. or try proactive? i heard that works really well.
just make sure to not wash your face TOO much because your skin could get dry and cause more acne.
wash your face in the morning with some oil free acne soap. then buy some oil free lotion for your face just to moisturize
:]
Uhm, my dad used to have horrible acne when he was younger. When I first started breaking out he told me that this oatmeal mask works wonders. You just take a cup of Oatmeal and mix it with plain yogurt until it makes a mask and then apply to your face and leave it until dries. Then wash it off. I hope this helps you.
This remedy is very good! Eat a portion of watermelon, make sure to save the rind. Deeply cleanse your face with St. Ives scrub. Use the watermelon rinds to scrub your face for 2-3 minutes. Wash the watermelon juice off your face. Repeat every night until pimples are gone.
