Wash your face with anything that contains salycylic acid.  Neutrogena oil free face wash helped me out.

Some solutions that may help cure acne are already in your home.\n\n1. If a pimple appears, don't break it immediately.\n2. Before you go to bed, wash your face (liquid cleansers work the best and do not overdry your face).\n3. Pat dry.\n4. If you have any type of mint toothpaste, dab a little on your pimple.\n5. Cover the spot with a small band-aid.\n6. By morning, the swelling should go down and the redness should be almost gone.\n7. For extreme breakouts, there are many over the counter face cleansers. \n\n* All acne medications cause your skin to break out more than when you started because the cleansers are cleaning out your pores and bringing all the dirt and oil to the surface which in turn causes a massive break out. Give it about two weeks and you will notice a big difference in your skin.\n* Avoid eating lots of sugar as sugar causes outbreaks most of the time.\n* Drink lots of water. \n\n* Do not use too many different types of acne medication at the same time. It can cause more irritation and more acne than when you started.

Fellow 27/f here...I have a couple suggestions for you. I have struggle with this problem since my teen years and have literally tried everything!!  I finally went on Accutane at 18 and it was so horrible, but I stuck it out and it got rid of my acne, minus a break out here or there. At 26, my acne came back in Full force! I am determined never to harm my body with horrible drugs like I did when I was 18, so I am trying a more natural approach. \n\n1) Use hydrogen peroxide as an astringent after you wash your face. It will help kill off the bacteria on your face and eat away at some of that nasty stuff.\n2) I haven't tried this, but I read today that you could dab honey on a pimple and put a bandaid over it...overnight. Apparently, honey has something in it that produces hydrogen peroxide, so putting it on the pimple will basically release this stuff over night on your pimple. Interesting I thought!\n3) If you are looking for a great face line that will help you get that stuff cleared up, get rid of fine lines and other blotches in the skin, I know of a great one. So good in fact, that I signed up this month to be able to buy the products at wholesale, because they are that good. Probably on here, this comes across as a weird sales pitch, but I'm 100% honest when I say that this product line changed the way I looked at the cosmetics and health and beauty industry.\n\nDid you know that cosmetic products virtually aren't regulated at all? They can basically put whatever they want in the products, and they do. This includes animal byproducts...you said you eat organic foods, but what are you putting on your skin?  I just realized about a month ago, through research, that before I have taken 1 bite of food in the morning, I have put large quantities of dead animals on my skin. GROSS! So I made a switch.\n\nThe products I am talking about are by Arbonne International. You can look them up online. If you email me, I would love to give you more info and see if they might work for you too. I am not in this to make money, but I will "sell" you the products for the wholesale cost I get if you are interested in trying them. No pressure whatsoever, but it is worth looking in to. Best of luck.\n\n*******************************\nLisa, if you consider this "regulation" then you need to get your head checked.\n\n"Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act, cosmetics and their ingredients are not required to undergo approval before they are sold to the public. Generally, FDA regulates these products after they have been released to the marketplace. This means that manufacturers may use any ingredient or raw material, except for color additives and a few prohibited substances, to market a product without a government review or approval."\n\nThis is a DIRECT quote from the FDAs webpage. Source posted below. \n\nAs to having to go to a "Professional", I am and have been going to a dermatologist for years. NEVER to have my acne cleared up EXCEPT when on accutane. And if you read the testamonies AGAINST that, including my own, you will NEVER touch the stuff. My dermatologist, with all his medications, can't take care of my acne apparently...or doesn't want to, because it isn't in his best interest. Neither could the other 3 dermatologists I've been to in my life. So, I took it upon myself to research and research and research. I am providing what I have found...and miraculously, IT IS WORKING! So Lisa, keep you nose out of it, because obviously YOU haven't been through this. For all your KNOWLEDGE, you know nothing.\n\n*******************************\nI've also posted a link to a list of cosmetic "ingredients" that are or may be derived from animals. Now, you may not think too much about animal cruelty, or that may not be a huge factor for you, but think of it this way. Animals that are grown and bred for specific purposes are treated with antibiotics,

if your 16 and its just the odd spot and you dont have it all over your face then just wait till you grow out of it . all teenagers get spots its just part of growing up , but if it gets to the stage where yor face is covered with spots , go see a dermatologist and he/she will put you on a drug that will get rid of it within 3 months .

My old roommate had a bad skin problem and she used to put toothpaste on her pimples be3fore she would go to bed at night. It dried them up and made it better, but she did not get completely rid of her acne until she used Proactive Solutions. It really does work. Best of luck!

Just a few tips :). Wash your face no more than 3 times daily as washing it too often will only worsen the pimples. Try to stay away from oil-based make up; it can trap bacteria and cause EVEN MORE breakouts...\n\nIn terms of remedies---Do you have Aloe Vera at home? I know this sounds a tad mucky (it is), but if you do, crush to soften then rub it on the skin's surface. Leave it on for a few minutes...it works fairly well. \n\nHaving said all that. Why not try ProActive? It's really great. It has helped my skin tremendously; I'm sure it could work wonders on yours :).\n\nTake care. Hope I was able to help! :D

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!

Unfortunatley pimples caused by stress there is no cure for. I break out from stress all the time and they are painful and suck ass. Don't listen to people tell you about toothpaste and eye drops cause it wont work. You will keep getting zits when you are stressed out. For now use Biore Ice Wash, Biore heated mask and try Noxema Pads (like stridex but better). Do not pop your pimples they will scar. Take a hot wet rag and hold it down on your pimple till all the pussy crap surfaces and when it breaks (on it's own) put some peroxide in it. I promise this will work. And BTW you are WAY to young to be that stressed out, a locking up jaw is a very bad sign, ask your parents to take you to your doctor and tell him about the stress and jaw thing. He can prescribe you zanex and it will help you with the stress and your skin. Good luck to you - feel better

I would suggest visiting a dermatologist. One thing you can do is eat healthy. You know fruits, veggies and less meat. Drink lots of WATER it clears your skin. No soda sugar feeds your acne. Also use a good simple soup and shampoo(daily). Oil from your head goes down to your face. Hope i helped good luck.\n\nPS dont believe weird solutions? like banna on ur skin it can have bacteria in it how can that help?

Picking at them just causes the bacteria to spread so wash your face thoroughly and keep you face clean. Try some of the pimple/acne medication out there and if that does not work see your doctor about getting medication that will. Always keep your hands away from your face when working in places like McDonald's etc. Matter of fact just keep your hands away from you face unless you are washing it. If you are a teenager do not stress out. This is common and will pass in most cases.
