Try bathing with soap and water, then put some witch hazel on them.

Pimples are caused by dead skin cells that are left behind and cause a blockage in the pores.
Bathing would definitely help, especially with soap and a soft sponge.
The idea of too much bathing is controversial. Bathing gets rid of the dead skin cells, but also makes your skin drier.

Yes, 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 . This link should provide more remedies.

i think this is caused by dry skin. take a loofah sponge, wash the area, then moisturize, i use baby oil directly out of the shower, then towel it off. i have the same condition. i am sure apple cider vinegar will help this too, but don't have my info handy, will update tomorrow..also, fish oil supplements, containing omega 3 helps too..
too much bathing will probably aggravate the skin more..
check back with this question tomorrow..

you should wash your face every day, to have clear skin and less oil on your face to cause pimples.
but also you should eat right and maybe buy some acne cream
