READ ALL THIS BELOW (My lazy butt didn't write all this for nothing LOL)\nHey, I don't blame you for not wanting Proactiv Acne Solution. I am almost positive that their product will not work effectively b/c they seem fake-They even have to pay$$ celebrities to lie about their product! My friend used it before and said nothing happened but it only irritated his skin. Oh well, Not everyone's skin work the same *!*!*!* Anyway, I know the best and only solution to remove acnes. You need to use "PanOxyl Bar 10%." It works fast and makes sure that pimples do not ocme back. Trust me, I have used this before and I was very suprised and satisfied. What it does it suck and kill all the bacterias athat are in the pores and removes oily skin. Read the directions in the bar soap to understand fully. I love this product. I get one acne every 2 months or so and they hurt and I use this product and I am always satisfied. Here is the link to purchase this product: http://www.dermadoctor.com/product.asp?productID=83&WID={1934F3FD-72EC-48A4-8943-A16692544559} (There are of course other websites where you may get this cheaper but make sure you do get this if you want a clear face sweetie. I am living proof that this works lol. I have told the ones I love about this so they can use it when they even have one pimple that they want out quick! I also use "Rugby Benzoyl Peroxide lotion" just incase I am on the go and I have only 1 huge acne. I use that product. it is like the soap but in a lotion form. You apply a dab of lotion right on top of the acne. It works quickly. Buy these two products and they are not over the counter or need a prescription so you can purchase these anywhere and they are cheap. I would purchase this product on this website: http://shop.store.yahoo.com/physlabs/10037125.html *!*!*!*

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!

Pimples are a result of a chemical imbalance in the body this is sometimes brought on by stress, not eating right, and even lack of exercise.  Take a multi vitamin daily, wash your face twice daily and use an acne clenser or follow up with an acne fighting astringent.  This will help keep the skin clensed and keep new ones from forming.  As for the current ones use a "sopt fighter" at night and this will help shrink them.  If this dont work you might have to go to a dermatologist to get something stronger.  Good Luck!

first u have to make sure if they are just pimples or inner facial pimples. but most important, u have to keep ur face clean (less oil), clean daily and dont always touch your face by ur hands since u got more germs in hands than any other parts of ur body. if they r inner pimples, better see someone who is professional. ur eating habit is very important too, less fried food and sweet. more water and fruits.

Apply a paste of fresh methi (fenugreek) leaves over the face every night for 10-15 minutes and washed with warm water. This will prevent acne, pimples, blackheads, and wrinkles.\n\n4. Place strawberry leaves on the acne, the alkalinity helps to reduce the swelling. \n\n5. Extract juice of one lemon and mix with equal quantity of rose water. Apply this mixture on the face and let it stay for about half an hour. Wash the face with fresh water. About 15 days application helps cure acne, pimples and reduces blemishes and scars. \n\n6.

Proactiv has always really been fantastic for any type of acne. They sell a body scrum that you can use on your back that should help clear it all up. Good luck!

Clean your face with a mild natural soap. Use lavender oil (100%) and it will heal acne and pimples very quickly. Put the oil on each blemish twice a day. A little goes a long way. Go to your local health food store to find the oil. I even mix some in with my face and body lotion.

Go to a dermatologist. :] I get my ointment and stuff from there, and it works.\n\nBut seeing that you have the dance pretty soon, I suggest washing your face with a good facial wash (I use celeteque), and cleasing it with a toner afterwards twice a day will do.\n\nOh! And watch out for what you eat.\n\nAnd what my mom used to do with her pimples was apply some toothpast (preferably colgate, I think) unto the pimple, and leave it there overnight. It dries out. However, the downside is you get dark spots. So if you do this one, prepare yourself with whitening cream. I suggest "magic cream" my parents use it. :] Seems to work.\n\nAnother tip I read from a magazine was that you crush an asprin and mix it with a little water to form a paste, and then smear it unto your pimple. I think you leave it there overnight as well. I've never tried this, or seen anyone try this, so I don't know if there's a downside to this.\n \nHope that helped. But you know, if you can't get rid of those pimples in time, try a concealer and such. Ask somone there. Hehe.\n\nWATCH WHAT YOU EAT!!!\n\nBut, I don't really think that this girl will dump you just because of pimples...

Don't pop 'em!  That can actually spread the problem. I kept my face clean, stayed away from all the "trigger" foods, took medication.... I hate to sound like a commercial but I've had acne for ...well...years and nothing ever worked until I got Proactiv.  It really works.

Alot of different things work for alot of different people. One thing might not work on someone else. Consult a dermatologist if it is bothing you, persistant, or severe. Proactive personally didn't do anything for me. I also don't drink milk which can aggrevate some people's bodies without them knowing it. I wash my face only twice, too much can dry your face out causing you to produce more oil and also irritate your skin. I frequently wash my pillow cases, which can build up bacteria and may casuse you to break out. Also, don't pop or pick! This can lead to scarring and spread bacteria under the skin causing more pimples! Hmmm...did I leave anything out?
