Answer 2

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

Quick way? Home remedies are not really quick but of course, more natural. If you want it quick, use Retin A cream, also know as Tretinoid. It's just Vitamin A actually. Available in most pharmacies. Before that, you have to identify whether yours is pimples or acne, and what type of acne. For some milder forms of pimples, it's much easier and quicker to get rid of by using benzoyl peroxide. Best is Neutrogena's On-The-Spot with only 2.5% benzoyl peroxide. Others maybe too harsh on the skin and make it worst. For other types of acnes or severe acnes, Retin A is proven (on myself) to be very effective, that also gets rid of the acne scars at the same time. You can see more benefits of Retin A or Tretinoid from internet and how it actually works to clear off the acne.

If you want home remedies, these are some simple ones:

Pimple remedy - Ripe lotus seeds are believed to be useful. Remove the black skin and mix the white internal part with some cold water, and apply on affected areas. To clear a pimply complexion, steam some carrots till tender and mash into a soft paste. Pat the paste over your face and leave for 15-20 mins. Rinse and pat face dry. For better results, add the water in which the carrots were cooked, to the paste.

Acne treatment - A treatment for acne which is highly thought of in the Middle East is to apply a mask of plain yoghurt each day. Leave it on for 10 mins, then rinse off. The enzymes in the yoghurt act on the bacteria and clean the skin. Garlic also has antiseptic qualities. Use 1 clove garlic, 1 teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon carrot juice, and the white of 1 egg to make a mask. Beat the egg white to a froth, then add the other ingredients, including the clove of crushed garlic, beating all the time. Use this to apply to affected areas.

Others, you have to know is NOT wash your face too much as it will make your skin surface dry and therefore, your face will produce more oil to replenish back the lost skin moisture. Use mild cleanser (water base or for sensitive skin, without mineral oil as it clog pores) and just wash twice a day, morning and night. Simple cleansing regime will do, wash, tone, moisturise, twice a day. Apply pimple cream (On-The-Spot or Retin A in this case is recommended) before moisturiser. Don't use cleanser, toner or moisturiser meant for oily skin or oil control, because it doesn't really help, but makes the skin dry and thus producing more oil, and make the problem worse.

If you need to use cosmetic, always look at the ingredients, and make sure that it's oil free, does not contain mineral oil or lanolin, non-comedogenic and is water base. Don't buy products that doesn't tell you the ingredient, as most of it contains mineral oil, such as blusher, eyeshadows, concealers, etc... I'm actually surprised to see that some compact powders or loose powder that is supposed to be meant for pimple skin or control oil, actually contains mineral oil that clogs pore. E.g., the clean & clear oil control powder. So just be careful before you buy something that is put on the face directly.

Well, then others also plays a part. Drink more water, healthier lifestyle, sleep earlier, etc....

Acne is due to hormonal changes ,bad diet and unhealthy skin care habits . It is very common in teenagers . Sometimes, dandruff in the hair can also cause acne. Effectiveness of these home remedies varies from person to person. Some of the home remedies for preventing and treating acne are:



1. Apply slices of tomato on your skin ,the pulp of the tomato has astringent properties which can prevent acne.
2. This pimple removing lotion will help to get rid of pimples on the face.
Multanimitti (china clay) powder – 1 tsp, Honey – ½ tsp, Carrot juice – ½ tsp, Garlic paste – ¼ tsp
Mix all the above items to form a lotion, and apply the mask on the pimples. Leave it on for 15 minutes. Wash off with lukewarm water and then wash with cold water.

3. The juice of basil or tulsi leaves heals the skin and acne scars are not formed

4. A good face pack of neem leaves with a pinch of turmeric is also very good for acne prone skin

5. Another face pack for acne prone skin would be that of honey (1 tsp) with 1/2 (tsp ) of cinnamon powder. Apply for 15 minutes. Due to the antiseptic properties, bacterial infections in the skin are treated.

6. Aloe vera pulp is useful for the skin or use a readymade aloevera gel . Many brands are available in the markets ( biotique is good) and you can also try a gel based sun screen (lotus herbals have it)

7. Make a paste of jeera (cinnamon) seeds in water and apply it over the pimples.

8. Application of the milky juice of unripe papaya, will remove pimples.

9 Make the paste of Rakta-chandan ( sandalwood ) and Turmeric with milk, and apply it over the pimples.

10. Include green leafy vegetables and fruits in your diet. Drink a lot of water regularly to flush out toxins. Avoid deep fried snacks.

11. For black heads you need to steam your face. Then use cotton to remove your black heads. Do not use make up for some time as it tends to clog pores more. Just apply an alcohol free toner after you wash your face .



12. It is important to use skin friendly products and not pinch the pustules so that there are no scars formed. A good soap like Neutrogena or Cetaphil is recommended. Mild oil free skin creams should only be used after you have washed your face.



13.Do not rub your face vigorously as this could damage the skin



i hope these remedies solve ur problem

Answer 5

I'm sure you are looking forward to this special date. You are beautiful just as you are, That special person didn't even see your acne, and if he did, he still asked you out, didn't he? My advice is to drink lots of water and keep you face clean. Don't put any make up on your face until Saturday. Cover the acne with foundation (if you are a girl ^_^) for the date and take it off right after it. You will look gorgeous!

Answer 7

It isn't a home remedy, but Clean and Clear Persagel works well. You can find it at drugstores for about 6 bucks. Or you can make a paste of crushed asprin and water and apply it to your blemishes. My niece did this and it worked pretty good. Have fun on your date,sweetie.

Answer 8

This worked for myself and my son. Forget the special soaps. After finding that lava bar soap removed acne from my back, my son started using it on a face rag with exceptional results. The pumas helps cleanse the skin and it also has lanolin to keep the skin soft.

Answer 9

Take soap...any kind of soap...don't wet the soap...take the residue that is left on the bottom of soap, scrap it up with your nail and pile it on the zit. Do it a few times. Once it is dried up, wash it off and then apply again.
I learned this from an article I read from Jennifer Lopez and it has worked for me. This will only work if you haven't played with it at all.
