The best method, in fact the best thing for skin full stop is Oil Cleansing Method (OCM) - this is where you use oil to cleanse your skin.

Most people start with a 50:50 mix of Extra Virgin Olive Oil : Castor Oil, EVOO is moisturizing where as Castor Oil is cleansing – some people will use other oils (I personally use nothing but Jojoba oil) and will change the mix to perhaps 75:25 or 25:75 depending on their skin type (i.e. if your skin is dry you would use more EVOO to moisturize), and some will also add essential oils such as lavender or tea tree oil (both help prevent and treat spots) – one advantage of OCM is that it is totally customisable so if your skin type changes, as it does very often, you can change the mix to suit your skin.

You put the oil onto your face, then take a facecloth that has been into hot water and rung out and put the facecloth onto your face, leave the facecloth on your face for a minute so it is similar to steaming your face to open up your pores, then wipe off the oil – follow with a toner such as Rosewater to help clean off any small excess oil and tighten your pores after they have been opened by the heat of the facecloth.

Reason it works is because it does not strip your skin of it's natural oils – when you wash your face with washes or soap it strips the natural oils that help keep your skin healthy and help keep your pores clean, so your skin is not only not as healthy as it should be but your skin also produces a load more oil to make up for all it has lost.

Reason for OCM being so good is not only is it VERY good for your skin, but it is also very customisable, cheap, easy to get a hold of, easy to use, does not support animal testing (as many commercial products do) and does not contain a load of toxic chemicals (as many commercial products do).

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.
Source:
A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.

The secret is never to touch the spots

there is a reason for achne do eat a lot of chocolate or crisps. this badness comes from within to start with so eat plenty of greens leave off sugery things. Drink plenty of water. eat as much fruit as you want. now on the supermarekt drug stores there is Tea TREE
astringent great after washing to keep the germs from the pimples and Tea Tree creams very soothing and the Tee Trea oil which you could apply to the really serious parts. All the best my dear and you notice this problem more than anyone else so try to forget them. Mysticmo.

Dont exfoliate at all, it just irritaes the skin, If your a girl try the pill, Dianette, its stops the testostarone in our bodys with causes spots, Pro Active and Retin A.
Retin A is perscribed by your Gp, but be careful you must moisturise as it really drys out your skin, and the first week of aplplication your skin should peel and new fresh skin will coem through.
i use all of the above, istill have a few on my chin, but that is my problem area, it ownt sure acne but it sure helps!
good luck sweet heart

Try using a mild cleanser WITHOUT acne medication. Sometimes the drying effects of the medication can cause you to break out more.

See a dermatologist.

Try either Proactiv or Clinique's 3 Step System! And keep a healthy diet. Cut back on greasy foods and drink plenty of water. Working out also helps cause you cleanse your pores when you sweat. Hope this helps, it worked for me.
Good luck! :)

If you have very bad acne prescription medicine would be best
if its minor then something like neutrogena facial wash would be best .... try proactive i heard if Deff works but if it doesnt then something prescribed
