***Aloe Use aloe vera juice or gel to counteract infection and promote healing. Use the ointment on pimples and sores. For acne scars, using aloe vera juice morning and night for as long as necessary (perhaps six months or longer) will help reduce the scars and improve skin complexion and color. It is drying, so if you have dry skin, use an aloe-based moisturizer. The pulp of the aloe vera plant is an excellent skin cleanser. Break off a portion and rub the pulp directly on the skin.
***Apple cider vinegar/lemon juice Clean your skin and apply either lemon juice or apple cider vinegar with a cotton ball. The acid in these kitchen remedies helps flush out the pores and keeps the skin looking beautiful. Vinegar acts as an astringent and helps remove excess oil, kills bacteria, and normalizes the skin's pH. This remedy should work quickly.
*** Another method using apple cider vinegar is to "steam clean" the face by putting it over a pan of boiling water with a towel over your head to trap the steam. This will loosen the dirt and oil. Then apply the vinegar with a cotton ball to remove the dirt and oil buildup. Repeat twice, then dab more vinegar on the pores to close them. Use this method once a week.
***Basil For acne that hasn't responded to other remedies, brew 2-3 teaspoons of dried basil leaves in 1 cup of boiling water for 20 minutes; let cool; apply to affected area with a cotton ball.
Beans Make a tea by boiling a handful of green beans in a quart of water for 10 minutes; add 3 tablespoons of dried chamomile flowers to the tea, cover and steep until cool; strain and bottle. Use as a face wash at least three times daily.
Carrot Juice The essential oils in carrot juice will aid digestion and help stop

I don't know about acne, but for pimples and zits I've read this in GL and used it ever since. I take a q-tip and put it in water and mix it with baking soda so its like a pasty consistency. Dot on the pimple and leave it over night. It dries so it might flake and fall off, but by morning my pimples are usually gone. Or go for the toothpaste. It dries it up

After cleansing your face, pat dry and use egg whites on your face to tighten your pores. I did this as a teen and it worked. Also a spot of toothpaste on a blemish will dry it up.

You can open your pores by leaning over a sink of hot water with a towel on your head. Most of all just keep your face very clean. Don't pick at it. It will scar. You can remove blackheads by squeezing gently with very clean hands. It's best to leave blemishes and white heads alone. Good Luck.

Ok, this depends on your age, but the pill can help if your acne is not too bad...
Unless you are still a kid, try cleansing your skin once or twice a day.
Use some creams to clean your pores as well.

I have the same problem. Read somewhere it s good to dab some honey overnight, and then stick a plaster over it. Tried it yesterday, worked well. Now have plasters all over the face too.
