Clean and clear or Proactiv. Sorry i couldn't help but saying proactiv because it worked so well on me. Or you can cleanse your face with soap twice a day to reduce the opportunity to get more pimples.

People might say this doesn't work, but I stand by it. If you've got just a few blemishes, before bed mix a thick paste of baking soda and water. Apply it just on the acne spots, not on any surrounding healthy skin because it can be very drying. Leave it on overnight and wash it off in the morning, then moisturize. Do this every night and you should start to see that your blemishes are healing faster.
Don't pick at anything! It only makes it worse.

Proactiv I swear by it! Also, if you go to your dermatologist you could get a an oral antibiotic that is very effective. Staphylococcus aureus is the main bacteria growing in your hair follicles where some topical solutions may not be able to get at it effectively and an oral antibiotic might be just the trick!

You could make Rose water from rose petals. One easy way to make it is to soak rose petals in water for a couple of weeks, with some alcohol added as a preservative. A speedier technique is to distill the flowers with water or steam. Try searching for for distilling or how to distill.

You can try mixing your face wash with some sugar to exfoliate your skin mechanically, and use sour milk as mask because milk contains an ingredient that is a good exfoliant. Or you can also try fruit acid (citrus), such as lemon or orange.

virgin coconut oil is really good. it's really famous in the philippines and is really proven to work. just apply it to your face every night and be consistent. my bro tried it before(his face was so full of acne and pimples) and his face cleared up, but he stopped using it so he got pimples again. hope this helps..
;D

try gel/lotion/cream with benozyl peroxide.. 10%.. i heard it will get worse(becoming dry) initially, however, it'll get better.
And! drink plenty of water to flush down the toxic in your body! I did that. :)
