Answer 1

there is literally no way to completely get rid of acne unless you use acne medication and you are doing everything you can to stop it. i feel for you, that must be hard especially since you are so young.  

Answer 2

Apply fresh mint juice every night to treat acne and pimples as this is a good home remedy for acne. More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/

Answer 5

Hi,

I had spots and pimples for about 20 years!

(1) a healthy diet keeps your skin healthy, but it won't affect your spots.

(2) Keep your skin moisturised or it will pump out loads more grease.

(3) I know when I tell you to stop hating them, you'll think I am crazy, but you really have to go easy on yourself.  

Go see a homeopath and they will treat the cause of your pimples (instead of normal doctors who just treat the pimples themselves.).  They are an outward manifestation of something going on for you regarding your own 'self image' (how you really feel about yourself).

I GUARANTEE when you change your thoughts and beliefs about yourself that are causing the pimples, they will disappear in a matter of days; it happened to me and I have seen the same happen for others.

I found Louise Hay's book 'You can Heal Your Life' really helpful as a starting point.   It lists a lot of physical symptoms and the emotional/mental patterns that cause them.  

You'll get through this!

Also, in the meantime, look up N-Lite Acne Treatment on the web if you feel that this is the way to go - no pills, no cream and fast!

Love yourself through this - I know how it feels.

UGH! im 12 and i get theses stupid bumps but they aren't pimples and i dont know what they are! i find the best way to get rid of them is to just wash my face alot, i dont know, thats what works for me!

Answer 7

Hey I'm 13 and I've got quite a few myself =/ BUT I've just found this awesome face wash that literally gets rid of them and makes em smaller...it called pHisohex you get it at pharmacies and even supermarkets.

You have to wash ur face with it 3 times a day, with rinse and repeat. If you can't find this facewash then DON'T WORRY there are still plenty of ways to make them a lot better.

I know that it sounds weird but putting toothpaste on them really helps. You need to get a NON-MINT toothpaste; the toothpaste can be mint flavoured but can not contain actual mint. Squeeze a little bit onto your finger and gently dab it onto the affected areas.

If you have sensitive skin, it's a good idea to ONLY leave this on for 10-15 minutes, because for sensitive skin toothpaste can sometimes make it worse, if left on for too long. Otherwise, leave it on for about half an hour, then wash it off thoroughly with just fresh water. Make sure your hands are very clean as you do this.

Well, I hope that will be some help to you. It helped awesomely for me =D good luck and sorry =[

Answer 8

Answer 10

I have pimples and i find that a good toner works and the new Neutrogena WAVE. I also use clearasil and its great to. It is specially formulated to treat pimples for tweens/teens

Answer 11

i used to have a million pimples and now they're gone...

with cleansers you have to find one that works well on your skin, doesnt mean that it worked well for most people it will also work for you. i used clearasil ultra and it worked perfectly, i have no more pimples!!!

also stuff that you do to your face also causes pimples, cleansers arnt the only things that make pimples go away, they just clean your skin....what happens to your skin between the times when you clean it???? you HAVE to wash your pillowcase every two days, you sweat the most when you sleep so you always need to sleep on a clean one cause if you don't you're face will be on a mob of pimple causing germs for the next eight hours straight.

For the same reason wipe your phone with face wipes coz they'll have germs too.

Also don't touch your face with your hands unless you just washed them, you use your hands for everything, they have alot of germs and once they get into your pores a pimple will probably pop up on your face the next day or in a few hours.

Also if you do sport you HAVE to use face wipes to clean your face, i recoment clearasil

i hope i helped....the last stuff is really important if you want to get rid of pimples

Answer 12

Sit back... this is a LONG answer, but I wanted to help you out! I know it can be frustrating. This REALLY works!! There are 3 people sent me an email saying to me that it worked for them!! This was also been chosen by 10 members to be the best answer because it worked for them too!! Proof, see my best answers!!

Gather all materials beforehand -- see "Things You'll Need" below. You might want to store them in a waterproof resealable bag, such as Ziploc. I'd recommend wearing either old clothes or a bathrobe over whatever you are wearing. There is a definite possibility this is going to spill. After you have found everything on you checklist, head to a large, flat, waterproof surface. This is probably your bathroom. Having this room be private is highly advised; you can't just say, "Get out, I'm flattening a pimple," can you?

Things You'll Need

- 3 or more cotton balls

- Lukewarm tap water

- Cup to hold the water in

- Salt

The Method

1. Salt the water thoroughly -- much more than you think it needs.

2. Dip one cotton ball in the salt water.

3. Wait for 30 - 60 seconds.

4. Squeeze out excess water out until it is damp, but not dripping.

5. Place the damp cotton ball over your large, oh-my-goodness-I-cannot-go-to-... zit. If you have several of these grouped together, try to place the cotton ball over them all.

6. Glance at your watch/clock. Wait exactly three minutes.

7. Remove the cotton ball after the time is up. The zit seems to be nearly gone, but it is only the top that has dissolved. Your acne is still there.

8. Take the other two cotton balls and place them on either side of the despised pimple.

9. Slowly, move them closer together until the tiny bump is flattened. Congrats! You've just conquered that giant of a pimple -- forever!

10. Apply honey on the infected area & go to sleep!!

Tips

*Don't forget the last 3 steps -- they are crucial.

*Be sure to follow these steps closely. Dipping a cottonball in fresh water as opposed to salt will not work, for instants.

* You might want to bring a book -- either waterproof or one that you do not care about being splattered in water. Those three minutes can get boring.

* This is your best bet for monster zits that simply sneak up on you. For long-term healthy skin, cleansing and toning is also important.

Warnings

* Please, PLEASE, do not assume this is permission to "pop" pimples. Doing so can cause major scarring. Please don't pop them.

* If you stop after the top is dissolved, I must warn you: it WILL come back! Maybe not in the next five minutes, but during the course of an hour, it will come back!

You can even try applying original Head & Shoulder Shampoo to clear acne!!! I WORKS like a charm!! Read all about it here including people's comment about it!

http://www.myhomeremedies.com/remedy.cgi...

If you feel new pimples erupting, ice it! Hold an ice cube over the area for about 5-10 minutes. It REALLY works!!!

For acne scars,

1. Lemon juice is natural bleach and helps in lightening the scars and blemishes of the skin.

2. Rosehip seed oil is also another home remedy which reduces acne scars. It is mostly used in the cosmetic products and used for acne scarring, facial scarring, surgical scars, sun damage, premature aging, burn marks etc. This oil should be massaged twice on the acne scars daily.

3. Application of Aloe Vera gel/juice to the fresh wounds prevents the formation of permanent scars.

4. One of the home remedy is that ice cubes can be rubbed on the acne scars for ten to fifteen minutes.

5. Vitamin E is considered best for the healthy glowing skin. Application of vitamin E oil or capsule to the scar will completely vanish the scar in few weeks.

6. The most effective remedy for the scars is application of honey several times a day. It will give a natural glow to the skin and will remove all scars.

If you have too many pimples/whiteheads/blackheads/ acne/acne scars/... I recommend you to try Carley's Clear & Smooth!! It's CHEAPER & BETTER than Proactive!! People are raving about this product!! Read their feedbacks/reviews!!
