this works for me...
wash your face very often
as much as you can
plain water will work
wash until you no longer feel any oil on your face
heres a tip...
wash face with water, rinse hands, rewash face, and do it over and over until your face feels either dry or oil free. If it gets too dry, moisturizer will help. They also sell some cheap products at the store for 8 bucks a tube and they work pretty nice if you use them on a daily basis. another technique as a home remedie is to use a lemon or lime to rub it on your face in a shower, leave it on for a while and then rinse, or do it right before you go to bed and leave it there. and rinse in the morning. but make sure your eyes are closed lol. have fun and i hope this helps

If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.
Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

Rubbing alcohol on the zits when they are actually there
A good face cleaning with a hypoallergenic scrub
Make sure you clean your make up off every night
Exfoliate your back with a good loofa if you have zits there as well
You can go to the dermatologist if you have insurance, and get a prescription which would be cheaper than the over the counter creams.

As far as home remedies go, I've heard that making a mask out of egg yolks works. Personally, I like Desert Essence Thoroughly Clean Face Wash with Tea tree oil. Proactive works well, but if you don't want to order it, you can find somewhat similar products at the store.

Is your face worth saving a few dollars? I mean really... home remedies work for removing glue, stains on carpets and pee smell from puppy accidents... I don't think it's worth trying to save a few bucks when your complexion is on the line. My wife was a JW (forced into it by parents) and she has some pertty deep scars from her acne. "God will provide"... my ****! That's why her sister and husband live with her parents, lol... losers!
Spend the money... don't take chances with your pretty face!

Wash your face with the hottest water you can stand then rinse it in the coldest water you can stand.
The hot opens up the pores and cleans them right out and the cold shuts the pores fact so no more dirt can get in.
You will see results within a couple of days.

First you have to figure out what kind of acne do you have--is it oily-face related, or just on your hairline because of hair-styling products, or is it due to rosacea....related to diet? related to adolescence and/or hormones?
And if all of that is too complicated, just wipe your face down with witch hazel a few times a day, drink lots and lots of water and watch out for fats (food).

keep the skin clean, when you sweat massage dry the skin with a dry towel.
use oxy pads.. noxema, keep the skin from over drying...
and eat a more balanced diet, cut out the processed foods and drink more water.
cut out or decrease the soda intake... candy, fast food.
get a bit of sun on that skin too.

The easiest and cheapest things you can do - is what I do, and my parents did:
Wash your face constantly AND wash your HANDS constantly - and I do mean CONSTANTLY. I find I get zits when I eat something greasy and then touch my face.
Rubbing alcohol, however drying to the skin, DOES often kill bacteria too.

Wash your face about six times a day. I have the same problem and I use dove sensitive skin bar. Works for me. Good luck!!!!!
