Hi Tweetie
Here are some real answers on skin conditions. Remedies at the bottom. Cleansing the body of toxins is the key. Especially a colon cleanse! Educate yourself on detoxifyng the blood.
Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - "What is your skin trying to tell you? Often the skin is a metaphor for deeper issues and a way for your body to send up a red flag to warn you that all is not well underneath. When our skin is unhealthy it is usually a reflection of the internal state of our bodies, and is often a sign of poor elimination of toxins and waste products. Most of us are embarrassed by skin problems such as rashes, boils or acne, especially in places where others can see our imperfections. The skin is the body's first line of defense against the environment. It has to deal with the effects of weather, sun , cold, heat, dryness, humidity, scrapes, bumps, soaps, detergents, chemicals, perspiration and dirt of all kinds. It is a wonder that our skin stays healthy most of the time! We can help our skin deal with this onslaught by optimizing our general health and by protecting our skin from harsh environmental exposure. Western medicine generally treats skin eruptions with either antibiotics, cortisone, or antifungal preparations. These medicines may alleviate the skin problem temporarily, or occasionally for good, but do not address the source of the problem. Putting a lid on skin symptoms without getting to the root of the imbalance may even result in suppression, that means the imbalance may be driven deeper causing more serious health problems later without ever strengthening the underlying vital force of the person. Fortunately, naturopathic medicine offers a wide vareity of effective treatments for skin problems."
Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - "Your skin is a reflection of how well your body is eliminating the toxins that build up on a daily basis. Chronic skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis stem from a combination of genetic factors, immune stress, dietary deficiencies or sensitivities, and the accumulation of toxins in the body. For our skin to be radiant and clear, it is very important that the other organs of elimination (kidneys, liver, lungs, and colon) are cleansing the body effectively. If not, the skin will be overtaxed, pores will become clogged, and eruptions of one sort or another will result. Here are a number of steps you can take to improve your body's overall elimination wtih specific emphasis on your skin."
Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin. Fasting is the world's most ancient and natural healing mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process that reaches right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body.

Natural Cures
1. Fruits and Vegetables for Acne: Carrot & spinach, celery & watercress, grapefruit juices are all useful to combat acne.
2. Unwholesome Foods: Acne, a prevalent problem among teen-aged boys would not be possible in our society if our foods were wholesome. A most sad and disgusting sight is the pus-filled pimples due to inner toxicity --- wastes trying desperately to escape through the face. This condition often turns a gentle face in the blossom of youth into a waste dump of pimples, pus and subsequent pock marks which can be prevented. The tons of acne medications and prescriptions sold annually act only on the effect of the harmful food, and not the cause of the disease, malnutrition. The traditional teenage meal, a grease burger, french fries and a milk shake or cola simply does not provide enough nourishment for anyone, let alone a boy going through puberty to adulthood. Our highly processed foods are devoid of hormones found in fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds. Must do a colon cleanse to rid of all the toxins in the body, which eventually get into the blood and cause acne and all other diseases.
3. Cabbage: Apply a lotion of freshly prepared cabbage juice preceded, if desired, by the application of leaves. The eating of cabbage leaves or juice is also helpful.
4. Lemon Juice: Skin problems such as acne... will often respond to a treatment of lemon juice. For blackheads rub lemon juice over them each night.
5. Black Walnut: Externally, Black Walnut is nearly a miracle worker in cases of ...acne, dandruff, boils, itch, shingles, ringworm--we could go on, but you can see that you can use Black Walnut whenever a skin disorder appears! The tincture is an excellent first-aid remedy for wounds.
Best of health to you

using johnsons clean and clear oil free face wash. Leave it on for a while in a thin layer all over your face then wash it off. Then use loreal pure zone lotion and anti-regreasing cream. Put 'freederm' gel on larger spots in a thin film, or even insect bite cream helps as it reduces the swelling as it contains anti-histamine. Also for women, going on the pill may help, as the hormones in it will reduce the oil in your skin.
I also find that by going to the gym and working out alot reduces acne. hope this helps.

Put windex on it!!! Lol Kidding that's from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"
But really, you should try putting toothpaste on it. But make sure it's white toothpaste, not coloured. It will begin to sting right away, but that means it's working. Take it off about a minute or two after the stinging stops.
It may take a few days to work, but apply it for a short amount of time about two or three times a day. Plus it gives your face a minty fresh smell!

time. Really. Just wait. But it also helps to wash the affected area twice a day, with water. don't scrub them. Try not to squeeze them, if you do, wash ur hands afterwards, also try to use a cleanser and face cream , without alchol. If its really bad, and u hate it, then go to the doctors, they can put you on these pills, but it takes around 6 months to work

Go to a dermatologist, get a prescription and listen what
he has to say about diet, food that you should not eat. Then
follow instructions. Acne usually is a hormonal change problem
and if you do not squeeze it tends to go away, however for
you own sake please do as above, and have a happy New Year!

I wouldn't necessarily call it a cure, but for me acne seems to flare up in periods of stress, so somehow trying to relax helps me. I hope it helps you.

What you put in your body is what comes out. Eat lots of fruits and mostly veggies. Vegtables come with different essential vitamins that most fruit dont contain which helps prevent blemishes. Eat high vitamin e and b foods (produce).
