Question

Answer 1

I use this clean and clear advance, it's in a kit that has the soap, lotion, and like this medicine if you have like some zits that you want to have go down. it helped clear up my face, but i didn't have bad acne. but you can try it to see if it helps. oh and also you can get this bottle by the same brand it's also the advanced thing and it just cleans up any oils that are left behind. that works too. hope this helps. =]

Answer 2

A lot of models do a lemon juice facial

wash your face with hot water the work in some lemon juice

it will probably burn ... that means it working

the bumps on your face may be from dry skin so use a really good moisturizer - Clinique is good!

also go for a facial every once and a while

they will be able to offer great advice and products designed for your skin type

Answer 3

Don't pop them.  That is the worst thing you could do, and will make them worse rather than better.

Often fewer products are better.  People often make their acne worse by using too many products.  There is no quick fix for acne.  Your doctor may recommend some prescription medication.  

Keep your face very clean.  Drink plenty of water.  Eat a nutritious diet and get enough sleep.  Try to reduce the stress in your life.  

Probably the most useful and effective things you can do are to apply hot compresses to pustules and cysts and never to pick or squeeze pimples. Playing with or popping pimples, no matter how careful and clean you are, nearly always makes bumps stay redder and bumpier longer.   Here are a few informative links with additional home treatment ideas.
