   This may sound wierd but…try green tea. It’s an old method that some asians use when we get some pimples. Don’t wash your face with any kind of soap, cream, etc. Just use some water and a towel, no bare hands please. Pat your face dry. Find an unused toothbrush or something that has soft bristles and dip it into a cup of warm green tea. Scrub the areas that need reduction. It makes your skin feel great and there aren’t any harsh chemicals and such…It may work for you, and it might not. People have different skin types, but it’s worth a try.

   wash your face often with a hypoallergenic cleanser to get rid of oil, clogged pores or makeup. pat dry with a towel, and make sure in the shower you rinse your face completlely clean of any soap or shampoo residue. even a little drip on your face can clog pores and create large pimples. diet also may be an issue. scientific research shows that lots of sugary or oily foods can cause acne.

   If there were such a non-medicinal cure for acne, everyone would already be using it. Unfortunately, there’s not. Green tea has some mild anti-bacterial properties (just as tea-tree oil does), but it’s not a cure. Nothing is going to ‘cure’ acne quickly. You can control it with consistent treatment, but the only thing (so far) that comes close to a cure is Accutane. Some laser and light treatments also provide long-term relief, but they are also not cures. Good luck!

   Acne is a bacteria that needs to be killed. Witch Hazel is also works great.. it is a little smelly, but you can use a cotton ball or wash cloth. It will tke away the oiliness. `Tea Tree Oil will kill out the bacteria or weaken it enough not to bother you. Apply it to the effected areas with a q-tip or cotton ball after you have washed.

   You should get a good multivitamin(highly suggest) with vitamin a,c,e,d and zinc.. this should help tons! Eating carrots also helps.. there is beta-carotene (Vitamin A) in them which helps prevent acne and repair the skin. Take zinc, zinc is a antibacterial agent. Make sure to drink plenty of water and get good rest at night.

   Azelaic Acid is a great natural acid that reduces the growth of bacteria, restores the skins cells and reduces inflammation. Try using a topical with Azelaic Acid in it.. it is safe.

   Also, change/wash your pillow case and sheets every other day.

   There are ways to put moisture back into your skin and heal it, such as: drinking lots of water, making sure you are eating enough fat/omega-3 oils. Lotions with mineral oil can dry out the skin, use one with out it! Emu Oil ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_oil ) contains vitamin A and E, Sapogens ( makes skin softer), and Oleic acid (a skin cell regenerator, anti-wrinkel agent) – walgreens sells emu oil.. i would think walmart would as well.
