  Mix Apple Cider Vinegar, Tea Tree Oil, and Water.
  Add more water than anything else. More water for more sensitive skin..

  Put it on a cotton ball and rub it on your face.

  Don’t eat greasy foods. Nothing fried.
  No oily foods like chocolate or soda.

  Do drink lots of water based liquids.
  Do sweat a lot, it cleans out your pores. A good two mile run will work up a good sweat.

  If you have an oily skin wash your face twice a day in warm salty water. This should leave your face oil free without aggravating the pimples like soap.The secret of keeping the skin clear is to keep it oil-free and clean. If you have a dry skin honey is a great remedy for acne and pimples because the honey kills bacteria. If you have a combination skin when you wash your face, use sugar to scrub it, at least once a day, for two weeks to rid yourself of acne. More such solutions at

  i read on a magazine to use toothpaste, after i did it worked. im older now so i dont get them but i told my 15 years sis and she does it also, use the original WHITE paste not the clear ones or the ones with the strips, no blue or green has to be the white one. pat it on at night, u can leave on overnight, its used at a quick remedy. also, a good nights rest, this is no joke, if ur not getting enough sleep 7-8 hours your skin will show it.

  in addition, there is only so much home remedies can do, see a dermatologist and they will give u a cream which will certainly help.

  I started having really bad acne problems beginning when I was 14. I had acne on my back that was embarrasing. I tried Proactiv, Zyporex, Aceneticin, Oxycerin, and even the Asso Gold Cleaning Bar with so-so results. I wound up contacting a local dermatologist. After 6 months nearly all of my acne cleared up. I recommed you try calling a local dermatologist that can help.

  Hi Hjd,

  There are dozens of different home remedies that can be used to help with acne. Here, are a couple of examples:

  You could create an acne tea by using chamomile, stinging nettle and marigold flowers with boiling water. Another tea can be made from gotu kola with water.

  An acne lotion can be made by mixing withc hazel, tea tree, eucalyptus, lavender oils, and water.

  You can also reduce acne swellings by using a white toothpaste that is applied directly to the pimple or you could use lemon juice and apply it in the affected area.

  All of these herbs and foods are readily available at your local supermarket or natural foods store. The key here is to recognize that everyone is different and so the results of any one herb/food can vary from person to person. I recommend you start to try a few and don’t be afraid to go to some others if they aren’t getting the results you want.

  Best,
  Frank Miller

  There are no home remedies that work. Some OTC meds work on minor cases. If it is severe and is not responding to OTC meds, see a dermatologist. She will give you a Rx for antibiotics and if that doesn’t work, you might consider Accutane. A serious medicine but it will work most of the time. Avoid severe scaring and a lot of social stress.

  the most traditional way instead of buying products from chemists and supermarkets is to get a flannel and add soup and scrub and your face…but not too hard! Surprisingly, it removes dirt and pores, clearing your skin. There is not a immediate difference but eventually you will find that your skin will be cleaner and result with less acne.

  Boil lime peels in a big pot of water and hold your head above it with a towel holdin all the steam on ur fase.

  Keep your head in there as long as you can then go wash with soap and water.
