tea tree oil, applied to each spot with a cotton ball, is really good for acne. (I use glycerin soap with tea tree oil as my bath soap.) I have also heard that regular Head and Shoulders shampoo is good for a temporary solution because of the zinc.

Toothpaste is not suitable for all, plus there are soo many varieties available that you just don't know. I've been taking homeopathic treatment for acne. The doc says after 6 months of treatment the acne will go forever. Have been into it for 2 months already and it seems to work, coz now i am not getting any more new pimples. I also apply a face pack which works out just fine. It includes honey + few drops of lemon + grounded nutmeg. Apply it on the face for 20 mintes daily. \nAlso, keeping your head free of dandruff works. \n\nApplying lemon juice on the scars for 10 minutes daily also helps.\nDo not expect immediate returns. It will take some patience.\nAll the best.

Refined carbs/sugar = more insulin = more hormones = more sebum (oil) = more bacteria = more acne\n\nWe're always being told that a diet of pizza and chocolate doesn't cause acne, which may be true to a certain extent, but certain foods can aggravate acne. Simply by cutting down on the foods that can aggravate acne and eating more foods that can help alleviate acne your skin condition will improve.\n\nPeople with skin that is susceptible to acne can benefit from eating a wide range of fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts and seeds. These foods have been found to be beneficial in helping reduce acne.\n\nFor good skin health, you need plenty of antioxidants (vitamin A (mainly from beta-carotene), vitamins C and E and selenium), B vitamins, vitamin D, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, chloride, magnesium, zinc, iron and sodium. A diet high in beta-carotene and zinc can be especially beneficial to acne. Men with acne can also benefit from extra selenium. Having plenty of the right minerals and vitamins will also help your skin by speeding up the healing process and spots and scarring will fade more quickly. \n\nDrink at least 2 litres of still mineral water daily. Drinking plenty of water helps reduce acne by flushing toxins out of your system and keeping your kidneys, liver and bowel functioning effectively. A sluggish digestive system is often linked to acne. Drinking plenty of water and eating lots of fibre in the form of fruit and vegetables will keep your insides healthy. Water will also help keep your skin supple and hydrated. Dehydrated skin can become dry and flaky, the skin's natural exfoliation slows down and pores become blocked which in turn can cause spots.

The recommended way to treat a pimple is by using salicylic acid treatments during the daytime (usually 1-2%) and benzoyl peroxide treatments at night (5-10%).\n\nHowever, good quick spot treatment is to use toothpaste (not gel) on the blemish and surrounding area. Leave it on until it dries. Then rinse it off with cool water. That will reduce the redness.
