Pimples really hurts specially teenagers but don worry there are hell lots of remedies for that:
1. After your afternoon meals or night supper you wash your hands right... then wipe your face or the pimple affected areas with that wetty hand, provided you would use your hands to eat not spoons.

2. don apply many types of creams thinking that you would get rid of pimples soon, insead stick on to one good cream.

3. wash your face for atleast 4 times a day with a mild face wash like clean & clear.

4. do follow the above steps and have a belief you will definitelt get rid of pimples..

Answer 3

Death tends to cure this - aging can as well. I am going to steal some information from someone else that posted some great stuff on how to get rid of it, so here goes:

Quick lesson on acne (to educate anyone that doesn’t know):

The skin is covered with tiny holes called pores. The pores have what are called ‘sebaceous glands,’ which make sebum (oil to moisten your hair and skin). If you’re lucky (unlike us), the glands produce the correct amount of sebum and no acne occurs. If you’re not lucky, the pores get clogged with excess sebum, dead skin cells, and bacteria.

Whitehead – a pore that gets clogged, closes, and bulges out from the skin

Blackhead – a pore that gets clogged and stays open (top surface darkens)

Pimple – a pore with broken walls, leading to a buildup under the skin

Hormones stimulate the sebaceous glands to make sebum. Acne is caused by the glands being overactive. Acne is not caused by the greasy foods you eat, chocolate, soda, or any of those other fun stories we hear about (unless you’re smothering these products into your pores!!)

What I learned:

Do not scrub the affected areas. This can make it worse by irritating the skin.
Use your hands instead of a wash cloth.

If you do find a moisturizer to use (or even with sunscreen), be sure to use oil-free products.

If you have long hair keep it away from the affected areas and wash it regularly (limits the amount of oil).

When you are stressed, your pores may make more sebum, so yes avoid negative stress.

When finished (or during) exercising or excessive sweating (gotta love _ _ _ ), wash the affected areas.

Try not to touch these areas (I also put sanitizer on my hands before messing with the fun of acne, which leads me to my next point – DO NOT PICK, SQUEEZE, or POP your acne.

Two ingredients to look for in products used to destroy this monster: benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid. The first one kills the bacteria that leads to acne and can reduce swelling. The latter causes skin to dry out and peel (which also helps rid you of acne). And again, we come to another point – DO NOT OVERUSE your acne products (follow directions exactly). If you use too much, your skin can become very red and very dry. Always, try a little before putting it all over yourself to check for any potential allergic reactions.

In researching acne, you may want to search for “acne vulgaris.”

Try a dermatologist – they can prescribe stronger medications than what you can get at the store.

By the way, this was posted by jennainhiding and received best answer for another question. I found it quite useful.

Answer 4

Benzoyl Peroxide is the best way to get rid of pimples. It's like a topical antibiotic. I used to have acne really bad and that is the ONLY thing that worked. That is the same ingredient that is in Proactiv. However, I wouldn't buy proactiv it is expensive and not only that you don't need the whole treatment. Go to the drugstore and buy benzoyl peroxide cream or face wash.

Answer 5

raw unpasturized apple cider vinegar..
the following 2 testimonials can be seen at http://www.earthclinic.com/cures/acne.ht...
Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a "very bad complexion". She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!


Cheryl writes, "My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up."

you can get it at the health food store, or in some super market health food sections.
good luck

Wash your face with acne soap and use pimples cream after wards. Both can be found at your local drug store.
