Over forty years! Don't trust what they say, do it Gods way!

Can acne heal in two weeks if you wash your face?

It depends. But here is something that cleared me up. There is a natural remedy I use call Barley Green in the powder form. The pills do not work. What I do is every morning I take a tablespoon of it, mix with a 1/2 cup of orange juice, and hold my nose and drink fast. It's gross, but since it's only a 1/2 a cup it's worth it. I did it for a month and was acne clear for almost a yr.

Reason for orange juice is b/c it's very strong and water makes me gag. I think you taste it more in water than you do in orange juice.

Also, holding the nose helps with less taste and smell. It makes swallowing easier.

Another thing I did two yrs after this was a chemical test and I found out that I was allergic to hair dye. Or to a chemical in the hair dye.

So also consider going to a dermatogolgist to determine if there is something that your allergic too that causes the pimples.

Also, last but not least, the barley green also helps keep your sinuses clear as well.

Papules - inflamed lesions that appear as small, pink bumps on the skin

Pustules (pimples) - inflamed pus-filled lesions that are red at the base

Cysts and nodules - large, inflamed, pus-filled lesions that are lodged deep and can drain, causing pain and scarring

An allergic reaction - may cause bumps

Common warts - Usually found on fingers, hands, knees, and elbows, a common wart is a small, hard bump that's dome-shaped and usually grayish-brown. It has a rough surface that may look like the head of a cauliflower, with black dots inside.

Flat warts, also called juvenile warts - These are about the size of a pinhead, are smoother than other kinds of warts, and have flat tops. Flat warts may be pink, light brown, or yellow. Most kids who get flat warts have them on their faces, but they can also grow on arms, knees, or hands and can appear in clusters.

How do you get rid of an ingrown pimple?

old wives tale that seems to work in our house -

warm some milk, put a small piece of bread in the milk and let it soak up as much milk as possible. Remove the bread, letting the excess milk drip out. I know this sounds disgusting, but tape the milk-soaked bread to the sore and go to sleep. In the morning there will be no more pus. The bread/milk works as a suction to remove any pus and liquid. This allows you to combat the rest of the infection (if there is any left) by an antibacterial ointment.

This trick works great on boils aswell!
