Don't use oily cosmetics.
sually appears in the form of clogged pores, blackheads, whiteheads, and full-blown pimples. I remember as a teen being told not to squeeze them, to just leave them alone and they would go away. Unfortunately, I could never adhere to this rule, and I suffered as a result, with infection and some scarring. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
As an Esthetician, we are trained to do what we call ‘extraction’, which is basically an educated form of squeezing. With a little know-how, you can help clear up your skin without making it worse. You can speed healing, relieve redness, swelling, and pain of pimples and blackheads. Estheticians are trained to be extra careful; after all, if a client leaves the salon with a red, inflamed face, she’s most likely not coming back. Here are some tips to use when you’re up against the bathroom mirror.
Sanitize – Make sure your hands and face are germ-free. A blemish should be treated like any other wound. The fewer germs that are allowed to enter it, the faster it will heal. Always wash your hands before touching blemishes, and use anti-bacterial hand gel if possible. You can put hydrogen peroxide on the blemish to sanitize it beforehand. Benzoyl peroxide, an ingredient in acne creams, will serve as an anti-bacterial agent after you’re done.
Be Gentle – If it bleeds, you’re squeezing too hard. Use your fingertips, not your nails, to apply gentle pressure to the sides of the blemish. Sometimes a little rocking motion between your fingertips can ease out the hardened sebum contained in blackheads. To ease the temptation to dig in, use the sides of your fingertips. You can also use a blackhead remover (Tweezerman makes a good one.)
Know When to Say When – Don’t squeeze and squeeze, hoping for something to break forth. If it’s not going to come out, don’t force it. Squeezing too hard can cause the trapped sebum to penetrate further inside the skin’s layers instead of out, causing a scar. Avoid this at all costs! When you see a clear liquid come out of the pore, it’s time to stop. At this point, apply antiseptic and a benzoyl peroxide cream to the blemish to keep it clean.
During a facial, extraction may be performed before or after the facial massage. The cleansing, steaming, and massage steps soften the sebum, making it much easier to remove. At home, extracting after a hot shower can help. However, if you have major acne or rosacea, you should see a dermatologist, who can prescribe medication or a prescription acne cream.

clean your skin every morning and night, this pervents dirt buildup in the skin. Clean face with warm water to open up all your skin and wash it out and rinse it with cold water to close up the pours in your skin again. If you wish try clean and clear skin washes or tea tree oil face cleaners or little towel lets etc.
Hope some of these help this is what i use to do and still do and i only get like one pimple and thats around a certain time. Good luck

Unfortunately for many people severe acne is hereditary -- if one of your parents had a "bad case" of acne, you may well have inherited it. In addition pimples are perfectly normal for adolescents; it indicates body hormonal changes moving you to adulthood.
Good advice to keep them at a minimum: wash your face with a mild soap and water twice a day (morning and evening) and drink plenty of water (and keep your hair -- especially if it is oily -- off your face and forehead - especially at night). Try to avoid touching your face with your hands AND don't poke, prod and pop your pimples!! Good luck.

Herbal acne remedies: For making herbal acne remedies lavender, chamomile, juniper, dandelion root, burdock and bergamot are instrumental. These herbal acne remedies can improve the skin condition considerably. Other herbs like hazel an excellent astringent, red clover an estrogen, and pokeroot an anti-inflammatory are herbal acne remedies.
