I have oily skin too and i found that mild scrubs worked decent, like apricrot scrubs. MILD!! Don't grate your face. I started using proactiv in January and it has worked great! Only had one or two breakouts since I started and it uses light scrubbing and benzoyl peroxide. So if you want to stay on the cheap side, try something that will scrub. Use it once a day and see how your skin reacts, and then up it to twice a day. And definitely use an astringent/toner, one without alcohol. If you can though I highly recommend proactiv.

1. You should use a chemical free skin cleanser every day. By cleaning your skin, you can help eliminate new blemishes from forming. Cleaning your skin every day is the best thing you can do to achieve healthy, acne free skin.\n\n2. Try to keep your hair and hands off of your face. Both your hair and hands contain dirt and oils that can clog your pores and let bacteria grow. While this is not a cure for acne, keeping your pores clear will be instrumental in clearing your acne.\n\n3. Drink lots of water, and eat a healthy diet. While there are no clear connections with acne to a person’s diet, your skin is the largest organ on your body and keeping your body healthy will naturally keep your skin healthy. \nDrinking lots of water will keep your skin hydrated while also flushing away toxins.\n\n4. Don’t pick at your acne! Picking at your acne causes an unnecessary transfer of oils that may cause deeper acne lesions that may lead to scarring. The best way is to get your acne under control using a natural acne treatment every morning and every night.\n\nThe above is the only natural way that completely cures acne.

If i am not mistaken, there are creams containing Benzyl peroxide (or benzyl hydroxide not sure which one) that helps getting rid of pimples.\n\nTalk to your pharmacist.

umm...well it depends on your skin type. but let's see. generally...\n\nfor small little pimples: you can try using the clean and clear acne treatment but if you have aggressive pimples, i.e. white heads or just big red ones, it wont work very well on those. works well for small pimples during the day because it has a clear solution\n\nfor blackheads: try "neutrogena blackhead eliminating treament mask". use at night. \n\nfor white heads/big red ones: try the "proactiv advanced blemish treament". it has benzoyl peroxide which helps to dry up the pimple. or any product with benzoyl peroxide will help but it should be high percent in it. use at night.\n\nor try  "neutrogena healthy skin anti-wrinkle anti-blemish cream" which gives you salicylic acid which also fights the pimples. use this during the day. \n\nphew. it takes alot of research to get rid of pimples! but we ALL have them. sucks.\n\nhope you get rid of those suckers!

NO NO NO. No scrubbing. That just moves the bacteria around the whole face and that's all you need. The face should be patted each night with a washcloth and hor saltwater to draw out the impurities. You can just lie it on your face and leave it for a minute or two. Then buy some witch hazel at the dollar stopre or wal mart for 3-4 bucks and some cotton balls. Take one ball to each pimple and put witch hazel on the cotton and use it once on one pimple t clean and get it in there pretty good. After doing your face let it dry. This is a natural astringent that also Ph balances the skin and does not burn. Then at night put a dab of antibiotic ointment on each pimpole. Do not touch but one, use a few Q-tips for this and throw them away. This should start to clear your face in a week, then as it clears you can start leaving off the ointment and just use the witch hazel. Then when it clears always use the witch hazel every day and when you gat a pimple go to that method for that breakout. Always dab the face, don't scrub and spread any bacteria around. Ok? good luck.

Wash face, use toner, use all-over treatment, use spot-treatment; respectively. Twice a day. If it is moderate or worse (not mild) then go to a dermatologist who will give you pills. And don't touch your face ever

You probably have oily skin. They're called pores. Use oil free makeup and moisturizers. and wash your face twice a day. See a dermatologist if you start getting pimples.

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.

no, no and no! acne starts on the inside, and to beat it, so should you! washing does help.\nwithout going to a perscription, start off drinking 64 ounces of water a day! this will flush the toxins from your system, and start clearing your skin. just washing will help, but it will not clear the acne!\nto get it nipped in the bud, go to your doctor, he or she can help you get it for the most part, clear. good luck!! :)

oh honey! this is the best routine and i guarentee wonderful results of clear, supple skin!:\n\nbp and salicitic acid will definitely dry out your face. the chemicals are very harsh. the dryer your skin is, the more your oil glands will react to remoisturize your face and they will product too much oil, causing more pimples! i suggest the routine i used to treat my mild breakouts as a teenager. first wash your face with a mild soap. glycerine rinses clean and is a natural moisturizer. then take a wash cloth and run it under warm to hot water. hold the cloth over your face and the heat will open your pores, allowing them to naturally drain out impurities and clogged puss. the heat is relaxing and feels amazing! keep reheating the cloth as it cools and reapplying until your skin feels purified. now that your pores are open and drained, dry your face and apply witch hazel, which is a natural astringent and much cheaper than the chemical astringents you buy at drug stores. whipe it on with a cotton ball. this completely cleans out the pore and moisturizes your skin. follow up with a light moisturizer with sunscreen and you're good to go for the day! or put on a lighter night cream. sorry i don't know if you're male or female, so if you wear makeup, wait about 10 minutes at the least unti your pores close again to put on foundation, etc. because you don't want that getting into your open pores. for spot treatment if you already have a pimple, apply tea tree oil. it's moisturizing but it will naturally "dry out" the pimple and help it heal. if you have an unsightly blemish that you picked open, use neosporin at night to speed the healing process.

Stop trying to pop it, it will only make it more irritated, and could even leave a scar.  Keep using the Proactiv.  The best way I have found to get rid of pimples in 2-3 days is Clean and Clear's Persa-Gel 10.  It works miracles.

Regular soap can dry up your skin, so preferably use one of those liquid soaps speciallly for acne. Clean and clear worked really well for me when I used it before in my teens when I was more prone to acne breakouts. Unfortunately diet is another important part of it. I always hear lots of water helps keep a nice fresh face.

u can try using witch hazel. its 100% natural astringent gently cleanses and conditions skin without removing essential moisture. it cleanses deep down to the pores. another thing is our hands, we must remember our hands are very dirty. and every time we put our hands in our faces thats only adding to the acne on our face. wash your hands as constant as possible. and keep them out of your face
