I struggled with acne for years and I finally found the solution that works for me. We have been fooled, tricked, deceived, and just plain lied to. It's time that someone put a stop to it, and everyone learn the truth!\n\nThose of us who suffer from acne have usually been given 2 choices and neither of them work:\n\n1. Over the counter remedies such as cleansers, creams, ointments, etc. These things have been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.\n\n2. Go see a doctor and or dermatologist. They will generally prescribe prescription drugs which include topicals and or antibiotics. This, too, has been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.\n\nI found a step-by-step program that cured my acne and it has never come back. It is amazing and doesn’t use any drugs or doctors. The truth is that acne can be cured…if we know the secret the doctors and drug companies don’t want us to know.\n\nThere is a great website: http://cure-my-acne.info/3daycure/ that has all the details. I really suggest you check it out and see if it works as well for you as it did for me.

Use an over-the-counter acne treatment that has 2% Salicylic acid or 10% benzoyl peroxide to treat the pimple, and something tinted to your skin-tone (or a lightly green-tinted makeup, as the opposing colors cancel each other out) to make the redness less noticeable until the pimple is gone.\nTry tinted Clearasil for both these problems, below @ drugstore.com:

use tea tree oil. I used to have major breakouts but since I used tea tree oil every time I have a pimple. It dries it and doesn't leave a mark. But if your having major acne try going to a health store and ask if they have supplements to clear acne. It's expensive but worth it. But if you are on a budget you have to undergo a major diet and eliminate/minimize food that causes acne. And always drink lots of liquids (water and fresh juice) everyday for proper circulation

You need to see a dermatologist, you might need a prescription.  There are also adult facial cleansers for acne.

Some body acne treatment with benzoyl peroxide should do the trick.  I have "acne-free" but it was a kit that came with face wash, lotion, and body wash - I haven't used to the body wash but the face stuff was awesome.  I think it's just a generic brand of the "Proactive" brand you see on infommercials.  I got it at Walmart.\n\nALSO - Most people get backne from the kind of shampoo they're using or products they put in their hair.  Try switching those products out.

There's not much you can do for prevention - it's just hormones going crazy and you just have to grin and bear it (we've all been there!) However, to get rid of your acne once it's there is different. Toothpaste is a quick and simple solution - just put a little blob on each spot before going to sleep and they'll dry up overnight, gaining a crusty head that is then much easier to pop. Hope it clears up soon (and it will - I had v bad acne from 16-19 years old but once it was over boy was I relieved!)

I would actually suggest going to a dermatologist to see what is up with your skin.  If you are prone to allergic reactions to over the counter acne medicines and soaps, I would think a doctor would be the best bet.  For home remedies, you can try swabbing your skin with a solution of black tea-steep a tea bag or 2 in some hot water, let it get nice and strong, cool it off, and wipe down your skin.  Also, remember that you don't need to apply a lot of pressure when you clean your face, just rub gently.  GL.

If i am not mistaken, there are creams containing Benzyl peroxide (or benzyl hydroxide not sure which one) that helps getting rid of pimples.\n\nTalk to your pharmacist.

For an acne medication, Proactiv is the best out there. For just a few blackheads, you can go to a local spa or beauty clinic and have a facial that normally costs under $50 CAN, usually around $25. they can extract the blackheads for you!\n\nBut picking at them and constantly using over the counter medications will only irritate your skin. just wash your face with a mild cleanser, first with hot water to open the pores, then rinse with cold to close them. steaming your face may also help open the pores, but make sure after you're done, you rinse your face with cold water to protect your skin.

The best thing you can do for your acne that i have tried is Proactiv. I have tried everything under the sun and that was the only non prescription solution that worked for me.\nBut be careful because some people have bad reaction to benzol peroxide.

From a person who has suffered with acne for years, and used hunderds of dollars in different products, the only thing that worked significantly for me was a perscription medication called Acutane.  I was perscribed it at the dermatologist, and there were no complications for me because I am a male, and most of the side effects are for females.  As far as over-the-counter-cheap-fix medications go, any medication with benzoyle peroxide as the active chemical works better than most salycillic (sp?) acid medications.
