I had the same problem, for years. It really pissed me off that I should have been more popular, except for the pimples. I am smart and funny, but they just ate away at my self-esteem. I was determined to get rid of them by hook or by crook.

I tried a whole bunch of things like proactive and others but nothing seemed to work. I tried a few different books and ebooks and nothing helped. Then, I read an awesome e-book that will teach you all the home remedies that you will need to get rid of acne permanently. At first I thought it was too expensive, but then I realized that I pay this much like every month for pimple medicine and washes, and this was a one time thing. Best decision I ever made! They explained exactly what was causing the pimples and how I could stop them and get rid of them. My doctor told me that he knew ome of this stuff, but doctors never like to tell you natural stuff. they only like to tell you about medicines. Not only did it help me stop getting pimples, it also helped clear up my onld pimple scars, which were really pissing me off!

I tried some books from my dermatologist, but they didn't help me, plus I kept on forgetting to return them to the library. The best thing about the ebook is that i downloaded it right away, and i had the copy forever.

toothpaste is ineffective for acne...you're better off disolving plain aspirin in a small amount of water. make a paste out of it and dab it on the affected areas...at bedtime. wash it off in the morning, and then moisturize. aspirin is salycilic acid. the main ingredient in mostly all of the more expensive topical acne medications. it will make the dead skin peel off, so keep moisturizing every morning.
salycilic acid comes from the willow plant, so you can also make a poultice out of willow leaves and put it on you acne also. either way, it's much cheaper than buying acne products. most products take 3-6 months to work completely, so stick with it for best results.

Toothpaste doesn't work for getting rid of acne. Instead, try using products w/ salicylic acid to clear your face. And, you are right in using moisturizer! Often dry skin can cause acne so continue using it!

dont use toothpaste to treat acne. buy a good facial cleanser and use it at least twice a day. you should get a better one, like Clinique or Aveda. they are more expensive, but they are better for your skin. you need to also exfoliate your skin to get rid of dead skin and clogged pores.

if you have dry skin, you may use a moisturizer before bed. however it should be "non-comedogenic" so as not to clog pores.

go to a dept. store, (ie macys or bloomingdales) cosmetics dept. and ask for a good cleanser for your skin type.
