What helps acne?

Answer 1

Keep your face clean. If you rest your cheek on your fist, you grind the infection into your face with your fist. You will see a lot of people with acne all over their cheeks resting their cheeks on their fist! Then I got rid of mine finally by doing something I was told not to do. When I started shaving, I put shaving cream on my pimples and shaved them off. Then I put iodine on where I had removed them. That I do not recommend.

Answer 2

Anti bacterial handsoap, just that soap you can find in a bathroom.It may sound cheap and it may sound like it would never work in a million years, but i hat like a hundred zits at once and it cleared all of them in 1 week. Just warm up a wash cloth and put some handsoap on there and you should be good!(apply every knight for a week)

Answer 3

• Differin really worked for me, but now I just wash my face with Aveeno Facial Cleansing Pads and they do a really great job cleaning off make-up and dirt. If your face is oily try using an Astringent. I used Clean & Clear's Astringent and it worked pretty well, but dried out my face a little. If you're looking for a good lotion to stop dryness try Clean & Clear Finishes: Pore Perfecting Moisturizer. I could probably help more if you told me what type of skin you have. Oily, Dry, Oily/Dry, etc.

• A dairy-free diet (no dairy products whatsoever). Read the 'Dietary Cure For Acne' by Professor Loren Cordain (you can buy it or borrow it from you local library. If your local library does not yet have a copy ask them to get one for you to borrow). Read about the scientific research by Dr. Cordain and his colleagues, which has brought a new understanding of how acne is influenced by diet. The 'Dietary Cure for Acne' works by preventing the four immediate causes of acne.

Answer 4

Well, I have severe acne. It is in my genes, but recently I have been using a homeopathic for acne. If you don't know what a homeopathic is, a homeopathic is a type of natural medicine. You can't overdose on it or anything.

So say you have been really itchy lately. If you take a homeopathic for itchiness, it is an extract of poison ivy. Since your body realizes this is in your system, your body fights against it harder. So really the medicine isn't doing anything. It's making your body work.

Anyway, usually you can get them at natural grocers like The Whole Foods Market or Vitamin Cottage. They do not sell them at Sprouts. You can also order them online at Walmart. They aren't that expensive at all.

Usually you take the tablets and put them on or under your tounge and wait for them to melt before swallowing them. It depends on their size on how many you should take. The bottle usually says how many you should take and how often.

To help the tablets even more, I recommend using any face wash and washing your face in the morning and at night.

Well, I hope that helped some! <3
