the best home remedy for baby acne is TIME. just keep baby's face clean with a washcloth, some water and maybe a wee bit of mild soap. It will clear up on it's own soon enough. Baby doesn't mind.

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.

A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.
The secret is never to touch the spots

If it's on a baby, it's probably not acne, but molluscum. It looks a lot like acne, but is self innoculating. It's actually small bumps of viral matter. The only way to cure this is to either let the body fight of the virus itself, or you can gently scrub the affected areas once or twice a day with betadine for about five minutes. Worst case, a doctor prescribed trans retinoic acid topical cream.

Let it go, and your baby will still be just as cute and lovable, with or without acne. It will go away eventually.

As my doctor said "leave it alone and it will clear up on its own". My daugther had it for a little bit, went away just as fast as it came pretty much. Just keep her face clean, and it will go away.
