Well I always use toothpaste and it seems to work. The trick is you are supposed to wash your face with a scrubber to remove excess skin and then put the toothpaste on so that it can get into the zit. But only do this at night. In the morning after you wash your face off of the toothpaste let your face "breathe". The main thing is to keep your face clean so that the excess oils can come out of the zit.

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.
Source:
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
Tips on how to treat acne and achieve perfect clear skin in as little as 7 days?

The military used to have the soldiers let soap dry on the zit. Better to use store bought stuff since this may dry the skin, but it works.

Wash your face 2x a day with a mild soap and swipe your face with witch hazel as well. .Try to sleep so your hair isn't on your face. .I use an old t-shirt sleeve.. That should help.... Oh DO NOT PICK>>>Good luck

I do not know anything about home remedies besides trying to pop them, but the best way is to use clearasil or accuve, and it should clear up in a few days.

here is a way for free!
it's a total zit zapper!
Zucchini Zit Zapper

Blend 1 baby zucchini 3-4 inches long with 1forth cup of water in your blender until smooth and pale green.
strain.
in a coffee grinder or dry blender grind 5 tablespoons of oatmeal til coarsely powered.
in a small bowl mix liquid with 1 to 2 tablespoons of powered oatmeal and thickin for 1 min.
spread this paste on your face and allow to dry for 20-30mins.
rinse with warm water.
it works better then any treatment i have ever done.
i am soo serious it works really really good.
a simple one:

then wake up and wash with cold water.
costs 0 dollars and works well!
