Besides using store bought solutions. what is a good way to clear up acne?

Besides what fizixx said,(washing often with warm soapy water) drinking alot of water instead of sodas, tea, etc. and having a healthy diet will help alot too. Stay away from greasy foods and snacks.Besides using store bought solutions. what is a good way to clear up acne?
Unless you have a stubborn case of it, most acne will go away by itself. If you have a bad case and are worried about scarring or how you may look on your next date, see a dermatologist and follow his/her advice.Besides using store bought solutions. what is a good way to clear up acne?
Very warm soapy water.....OFTEN.





Wash 3-4 times a day. Don't touch your face with dirty hands.





Wash and keep clean. Believe it or not this works, and it's free.
I started buying glycolic acid for my face (10%). It works so well! You can't buy it in stores. A lady I know does facials and she sells it. Your skin will REALLY look better.


Good luck and stop drinking soda.
pop them.
hey i just wanted to let you in on a lil trick proactive is dial soap so just wash your face with that twice a day...my sis dermatologist told her that last week
I agree with most of the other answers. I would definitely use anti-bacterial soap though. Drink alot of water also. At night you can put a dab of liquid anti-bacterial soap on the pimples you have now and that will clear them up quickly.
Plese see my page on natural remedies for acne
Popping is NOT the answer. It forces the sebum and infection into other parts of your face, causing new pimples in a few days, and can cause scars! Washing a lot with soap is not NECESSARILY the answer for you, either! If your acne is caused by oil, then dehydrating soaps could cause your oil production to go into overdrive! I personally have to combine a (non-greasy) cleanser with a (non-greasy) lotion afterwards. You just have to experiment with different washing routines until you find one that works for you. Sometimes a dot of alcohol right on the zit (like Sea-breeze or rubbing alcohol or anti-bacterial hand gel or even stuff for mosquito bites) will make it go away a lot faster. I do know this for sure, however ... drinking a HECK of a lot of water is a MAJOR factor in improving not only your complexion, but a whole host of other things, too.
Make sure you wash your face everyday, change your pillow case often, got an aloe plant? Break off a small amount of stem and apply the juice of the aloe to the acne.
go to a dermatologist.My daughter is seeing one.. .Dr. prescribed an antibiotic and a facial cleaner and her complexion is perfect.She did try several antibiotics until the dr. found the right one for her.
Whoa don't pop them this causes scars! Washing your face too much can dry your skin out which can also cause acne. And Dial soap will really dry your face out it is not what is in ProActive (Benzoyl Peroxide and Salacylic Acid). If u have acne that is not controlled with store bought stuff try a dermatologist you may need Accutane or Retin-A
A proper diet would really help. Making sure to drink enough water and get enough rest as well. Foods like Salmon are supposed to be very good for skin ... giving it a healthy glow.
