Q&A: How to get rid of my stupid acne?
Question by LollipopxSweets: How to get rid of my stupid acne?
I am so sick of this. I’ve had zits here and there for a few years, but now it seems to be a consistent speckling of painful acne. I’m almost 16 and my face is oily in the forehead, chin, and nose. I get blackheads a lot and would absolutely love to get rid of those. I’ve recently started to get acne on my cheeks, whereas it is usually on the sides of the nose, the chin, and forehead.
What products could you recommend?
Any natural remedies?
Thank you!

toothpaste works wonders on your skin. drink lots of water. if you play sports, keep your hair off your face and most of all. Leave the Zits alone.

I wish I could recommend a miracle cure, but there is none. I had acne in my teens and twentys. The only thing that helped was getting my hormones under control. I take a birth control pill called Yasmin each day. I do not take the sugar pills and therefore my hormone level is constant and doesnt go up and down, which is what was causing my acne.
However, seeing you are only 16 a doctor may not recommend this to you. For me controlling my hormones was the only thing that made a difference.
Good luck, I know how terrible bad skin can make you feel.
Heres some steps to get rid of your acne:
Step 1
Natural treatment for acne can start with changing the diet. Replace the junk and processed food with vegetables and fruits. These foods help to improve the immune system which is a natural defense against the harmful bacteria that cause acne. The outside of the body reflects what is consumed so changing dietary intake is the beginning of naturally getting ride of acne. Ensure food choices are rich in vitamin A and E and include Pantothenic Acid. These vitamins are essential for keeping your skin healthy and preventing acne and the subsequent scars. Drink a lot of water will also keep skin healthy and helps to remove toxins from the inside out.
Step 2
Cleanse your skin with soaps that do not include chemicals and help retain the pH balance of your skin. Wash the face several times a day. Avoid ‘popping pimples’ or the acne can get more inflamed. Once the pimple is open dirt and bacteria are forced back into the pore making the infection even worse.
Step 3
Use food as the base for topical treatments for getting rid of acne naturally.
• Break and egg and save the egg white. With a disposable makeup sponge dab the egg white onto the acne affected area and leave on for at least 30 minutes. For best results leave on overnight. Wash off thoroughly. This will help dry out the acne.
• A natural treatment for drying out acne, without drying out the skin, is to rub the peel of a cucumber, wet side up, over the acne affected area and leave on overnight. Wash thoroughly in the morning.
• Mix 2 teaspoons of cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of vinegar. Apply on the acne area for 30 minutes. Wash thoroughly with warm water and a washcloth.
• Garlic is a natural remedy for many conditions and acne is one of them.
Add 1 teaspoon garlic juice with a little petroleum jelly and apply to the acne.
• To keep acne blemished skin smooth make a mixture of 1 cup plain yogurt and juice from one half of a lemon. Apply this natural acne cream each night before going to bed. Keep this acne cream in the refrigerator. Smoother skin effects should be noticeable in 3 – 4 weeks.

i have some natural treatments for pimple :
1. Tea tree oil is a popular home remedy for pimple. It is an essential oil that is diluted and applied topically to pimple lesions.
2. Zinc is another popular home remedy for pimple. A couple of research studies have found that zinc is somewhat effective.
3. Garlic juice is an effective way as a natural pimple treatment because garlic is a natural antibacterial agent. It contains sulfur which is nature’s antibiotic.
4. Honey contains potassium, which suffocates bacteria in pimple cells to get rid of pimples faster.
5. Dandelion is very effective in fighting pimple. Use the complete dandelion plant.
Worry, stress and lack of sleep also can upset the body and create pimple and skin problems.
i get many tips about pimple from this blog, http://lets-get-rid-of-pimple.blogspot.com/
My friend pointed me towards BadZits.com
They have all kinds of articles and links to products that should help.
Wash your face twice a day in warm salty water. This should leave your face oil free without aggravating the acne. Check out http://usefulinfo-acne.blogspot.com/ for more useful info.
Pro Active is good, but it can dry out your skin so use moisturizer regularly with Pro active.
$ 10 bottles of clean and clear cleansers are ok, but because they are cheaper they don’t work as quickly.
If you mix dry oats, honey, and baking soda together, then put it on your face after washing with soap. The baking soda will clean out your pores and the honey with actually make your skin glow, and the oats will help keep the mixture from being too runny.
However, the best thing you can do for your skin is drink water. About 3 litres a day is more then you need, but will drastically help your skin. Also avoid touching your face with dirty hands, or having your hair in your face. And avoid over washing.
I suffer from acne as well, and Pro Active has definatly helped. Make honey facials makes my skin glow, and I only drink water and cut sugar from my diet, and my acne is minimal to absent
hope this helps
I used to have huge cysts all over my face but I found an awesome online book that completely cleared my skin. You know how people say that there’s no Miracle cure? Well THIS IS A MIRACLE CURE!!! I had tried everything on the market and nothing ever worked for me except for this when I finally found it. It might cost a bit of money but it’s worth it! Below is the link.
I also do a clay face mask which just adds to the effect by getting rid of those nasty blackheads. Beware though that there are many different clay masks. There is Bentonite clay, Moroccan Red clay, and many others. The best one to use is GREEN EUROPEAN CLAY. What I do is since the container is usually so small that it takes me no time to finish, I mix this clay with the bentonite clay just to make it last longer. What’s also best about the GREEN EUROPEAN CLAY is that it’s good for all skin types. For oily skin you would just mix the clay with water and it literally draws all the oil and toxins out of your skin. You can actually feel your skin pulsate!!! The best brand that I use is the NOW brand for these clays. The NOW brand is all natural and usually is one of the best brands for anything you buy. You can purchase any of these things at your local Health Food Store. I put the face mask on once a day at night before I go to bed and I wake up in the morning with no oily skin! So a mixture of the pills from the book and the face max equals perfect skin. I hope this works for you as it does for me.
Good Luck!!!

My sister and cousin who both have major acne have tried the product and they both give it thumbs up. I have also heard many great feedbacks about this cream.
I don’t have a problem with acne, but it seems to have great results on my sister who has moderate to severe acne. Her acne swelling went away overnight.
