Usingg toothpaste to dry your zits over night is a really great way to reduce redness. and the overall size of your zit…All you have to do is just put a dab of toothpaste on your zit, rub it in slightly….and leave it on overnight, and by morning it should be decreased in size and redness. If you have very SENSITIVE skin do NOT use this method,!!!!! Hope this works for you.! <3

I had acne for about a year and tried different soaps, I tried popping my acne, I tried oils, I tried facecloths, I tried over-washing my face, but nothing worked. I finally went to my physician and he told me I had pretty bad acne. More towards the 7-8 out of 10. He put me on tetracycline 250 MG but that didn’t work. So I went to a dermatologist and he gave me 500 MG of tetracycline, Adapalene 0.1% Gel, and Benzoyl Peroxide Creamy Wash. But that still didn’t work. So Finally I added just pure Baking soda. And it worked almost instantly! My acne went away in a few weeks, and my acne scars from a year of popping my acne is almost gone after a few months. Here is what I do: Morning shower, wash face with Baking soda. Night shower, wash face with Baking Soda. Before I go to bed, wash my face with Benzoyle Peroxide, then use the Gel. And take the Tetracycline once in the morning and once at night. It works really well. If you can’t get those prescription drugs I would suggest at least using the Baking Soda! Scrub softly and twice a day when you shower.

I have acne, too-what teenager doesn’t? (except the lucky ones) i use proactiv, which takes FOREVER like 6-8 weeks but once u get past there it stays clear. but for a quick fix, try lemon juice or a baking soda mask.

Hello. ‘Im 12 years old, and i have bad acne. Its hard when you have pimples on your chin, for head, and around my nose. You don’t have any clue how much i want to just… die. I cry every time i look at the mirror and see my face. I hide my face from people at school, i wear a bunch of make-up (which by the way makes it WAY worse) and i never look up. I’m now starting to save up money to go and get laser treatment, but my family is broke and i’m scared to ask people. Help me, please? :’(

April 17th, 2011 at 6:39 am
i’m 18.
a guy.
things that work for me: i promise, i know how horrible it is.. these things WORK.
drink at LEAST 3 BOTTLES of WATER.
consume less dairy, sugary, processed, fatty, and “bready” foods.
eat lean meats, vegetables (especially greens), fruits, and whole healthy grains. UNPROCESSED foods are key.
use salicylic acid scrubs at night then wash face with water and apply benzyl peroxide cream for over night, then wash off in morning, and wash face with gently throughout the day.
and for guys specifically… try to masturbate less often. it stirs up your hormones cause increase in oil production. same reason with how birth control pills for women help acne by controlling their hormones.
keep your bed sheets (especially your pillow case) clean, you should wash your pillow case as often as possible.
all of these things will help a lot.
do a many of these things as possible, and you will notice a difference. it worked for me! i had it bad, now it’s clear except for the couple here and there. i really do hope this helps some of you.

Thanks a lot! My dad thinks it is ‘unusual’ to have acne and thinks it’s dangerous and that it will be there forever. Therefore, he keeps arranging appointments with the dermatologist. This really annoys me. I won’t let time take it away, I’ll just follow those simple steps.
thanks once more

Hope all of your problems Vanish!!!
May 29th, 2011 at 4:16 am
i m 16 and i have pimple problem from 15 . my skin is so sensitive that n o more products works and there are soo much darkspots on my face even on forehead also , so pls recommend me the naturall way to get rid .
May 30th, 2011 at 1:16 pm
Try using plant stem cell treatment. It’s. Expensive but it might work. Idk know the website but odor it online. Google it. Thanks for the advice, I really needed it
May 31st, 2011 at 1:07 am
Heey,
I’m almost 16 and I have pretty bad skin. I have acne, freckles, uneven skin tone, and oily skin but when I use acne products my skin gets dry and flakey….My dad says it’s all part of being a teenager. I understand this but I believe I can help/prevent it a little. Every one has different skin, so products work differently on everyone. I’ve tried many things, they seem to work then after my skin gets used to it and stops. I want to go to a professional, but my parents don’t have the money for it! Please help, I don’t know what else to do!
June 1st, 2011 at 5:19 pm
Please Help!! I have nearly flawless skin everywhere, except for my forehead. I have tried so hard to get rid of it, but I just can’t. I am switching schools next year,(high school sophomore.) and i want to make a good first impression on everyone. I also have a bad habit of touching and picking my face, and i don’t even realize i’m doing it. So how do I get rid of acne, (redness*) blackheads, and how do i treat OPEN PIMPLEZ?? PLEASE HELP! IM TIRED OF MY FEDORA!!
June 1st, 2011 at 11:51 pm
hi I’m 11 and I’m sort of an early bird… I already have a crap-load of acne, and I hate it! everybody else in my school has 0 acne
it’s really awkward… I have about ten zits on my forehead, more then I can count on my nose, and a few on my cheeks… I’ll try the toothpaste, but my sis said toothpaste dries out your face…
June 3rd, 2011 at 2:05 am
ok i USED to have bad acne… then i looked on websites and stuff like this and i used some stuff. It cleared it up over night… You can actually see the difference.
First you must wash your hands as aften as possible.Try not to touch your face alot too. Next you need to put your hair up in a pony tail when you go to bed. When your asleep oils from your hair go onto your face.
Also you should not put a bunch of makeup on. Makeup can clog pours and cause wrinkles haha. Also wear non greasy sun block. The sun can dry skin and do other bad things. Greasy sunblock can put well grease on your skin.
June 3rd, 2011 at 2:13 am
kk and their are other ideas…….. get cetaphil cleanser and wash your face in the morning with it. Get Dove wash and wash your face through out the day as often as possible. Every night you must get Sea breeze face cleaner and use it. After that put on a healthy Avecodo mask.
mask ingrdiant…
Avecado mashed up
just a little tiny bit of warm milk
a drop of lemon
and a pinch of sugar
mix all ingrediants together. make sure mixture is smooth. Leave it on for 5 minutes and rinse of with room tempture water.
June 3rd, 2011 at 9:06 pm
hey i got acne since i was 7 or 6 and i still have it and people make fun of me and i just 10 years old and they dont take offfffff
June 4th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
One thing that worked pretty well for me is: Wash face throughly and gently with warm water. Use cotton pads with a little water on them to remove dead skin cells. Apply lots of spectro Acne Care 2.5% Benzoil Peroxide Cream. Rub it in gently until it is dry. Apply a moisturizer to counter-act the drying effect of the benzoil.
Note: avoid getting the benzoil on the skin near your eyes. I wash around my eyes after with cotton pads, then apply only moisturizer.
June 10th, 2011 at 2:23 am
For all you people going on dates and don’t want to look really bad, I have 2 things to say: your date should take you as you are. But it you still want to fix the acne issues, I would try neutrogenas oil free acne wash. Use that twice a day, and although it may take a couple of weeks, it does work. It worked for me. I hope this helps!
June 14th, 2011 at 6:51 pm
Im 12 years old i have some acne so i tried cutting a tomato in half and rubbing it on my face,left it on for 5 min the washed it off…I did that it worked pretty well .i tried honey it worked good for a few days then it irritaded my skin ..proactive does NOT work very good *if your going to use honey use all natural honey*
June 14th, 2011 at 9:51 pm
dont worry bout your spots peeps other people dont notice it as much as you do and your spots will go away after your puberty
June 15th, 2011 at 5:52 pm
Milk of magnesia really helps leave it on overnight it reducees redness
June 19th, 2011 at 5:00 pm
Hey guys so I have like this horrific acne on my cheeks, forehead, and chin .. What I do is wash my face with warm water and neutrogena blemish free skincare wash, then spot-treat with neutrogena moisturizer. Drink LOTS of water(helps flush your body of any un-needed bacteria) and eat a healthy diet consisting of veggies/ fruits/ whole grains etc.. It REALLY helped me … For dry skin moisture is the key .. For oily skin you might wanna spot treat throughout the day, :d hope this helpsss!
June 21st, 2011 at 9:10 am
guys u should have sex more times ..so it ll be clear soon
June 22nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Hey I have some advice for you all.
Either use sudo-creme, tea tree oil but not toothpaste of perfume.
Drink at least 2litres of pure water a day.
Wash face 2 to 3 times any more is damaging, wash in hot with lemon and rosemary then rinse with cold to close pores again and stop any dirt entering.
To get rid of scars use lavender oil.
If really oily exfoliate everyday.
If really dry use honey and yogurt face mask every day.
Eat healthily with fruit and veg.
Abouslutely no chemicals just b natural.
Try avoid liquid based make-up. Try not to wear any at all.
drink 1 or more cups of green tea a day!!!is quite disgusting but really really helps.
I hope this advice works for you, remember everyone’s skin is different so what works for one might not work for another. All this does work though.
Take care of you skin and best of luck

hi i’m a 17 year old girl and i have mild acne and i’m searching for ways to clear it up i’ve had it for about two years now and i have tried a number of things but they DON’T work..so does anyone know remedies that wil help me get rid of my acne?..in the meanhile i can list things that i’ve tried but absolutely din NOT work on me….to start off putting plain toothspate on your zit to vanish it won’t work..it only makes it aloot more red and noticible i learned that the hard way..secondly clearisil is just a waste of money it did nothing to get rid of my acne at all…also clean and clear advantage acne control kit did nothing for me either and it was $20.00….i haven’t tried proactive yet but i have read alot about acne articles and alot of people claim that proactive works but takes a while and once you stop using it your acne comes back alot worser..soi guess it’s up to you if you want to take the risk..also instead of wasting your money on expensive wahses that don’t work most of the time search up home remedies that work and find the one that works for you because not one will work for everyone since we all have different skin types..also do research on what causes acne and maybe your doing something that causes your acne…so now some of the remedies i have read online that are supposed to work are lemon juice mixed with rosewater and then applying it to face..and also honey mixed with cinammon….i still have to try these but i hope they do work..alos to manage your acne you have to splash your face with WARM water to open your pores then apply what ever you do to clean your face then use exfoliater to open your pores and get rid of dead skin cells which clog pores and are one of the causes people get acne…also remember that you don’t have to exfoliate everyday but do it 3-4 times a week..then rinse with cold water so your pores close up and nothing else gets in them like bacteria…..i hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!
June 23rd, 2011 at 4:42 pm
also before washing your face you MUST! wash hands first or else you’ll contaminate your skin because you’ll move the bacteria from your hands to your face.
June 24th, 2011 at 2:06 am

I really need help!!! my skin is oily and wear concealer at school, my friends say they cant notice them very much but i got asked by a boy if i had acne today. it lowered my self esteem and i have tried everything!!! i am sick of it and feeling like giving up hope. any suggestions on what to do?
June 28th, 2011 at 8:56 pm
heya everyone,
i know exactly how you feel ive had acne since i wass 11 and now im 15 =/
ive been bullied for so long & hide my face in makeup all the time
the bullies soon stopped when i stood up to them though
i went to the doctors and have had so many things prescribed- zynerite, dermol 500, epoduo, doxyciline ( which i was allergic 2 :/) some other cream i dont remember what it was called oxytetracyline anyway you get the idea i must of also spent over £100 on skin products and nothing works.
atm im on tablets called erothnricin (think thats how you spell it) and my doctor has refered me to a dermatologist so hopefully they can help fingers crossed
anyway toothpaste seems to reduce the size of them but wont get rid of them completely
i just recommend you ask your doctor for some medication because mine has helped a hell of a lot and just exfoliate, wash your face try to keep it clean also as weird as it sounds try using piles cream it really helped my skin and slowly getting there
sacrilic acid is supposed to be good to get rid of them but it has it in my veruca cream so yeah…=/
good luck guys

Tip 2: Mix honey and cinnamon until you get a paste and put a dap onto your pimple it really works . Tip 3: It might work but teetree oil or lavender oil might work if u just rub it in. hope it works.

Did you know that acne treatments could be found in your own home? Just look around you, chances are you have remedies right under your own nose. An effective home remedy for pimples can be found within a couple of minutes of perusing your own bathroom or kitchen cabinets.
Items in your bathroom like toothpaste, witch hazel, and Octagon Washing Soap and more are just a few things that can be used to treat pimples quickly and thoroughly.
Toothpaste can be dabbed individually on pimples and by morning, a visible change in the size and color of inflammation can be seen. The active ingredient of triclosan in toothpaste can be used to kill bacteria. Toothpaste can also contain menthol which can dry the pimples out and reduce oil production.
Witch hazel is a great astringent, disinfectant, and antiinflammatory. Astringents are used to close the pores of the skin after cleansing and can be dabbed on pimples and active breakout areas for quick healing purposes. Witch hazel is an old time ingredient that can be found in any drug store or grocery store. If you can’t find it, go to the pharmacy area of the store and ask someone behind the counter where it is; more than likely they can point it out to you.
Octagon Washing Soap is a lye-based soap invented in the 1920s for laundry. Before liquid soap was invented soap was made in bar form and was shaved with a grater for washing clothes. It has been attested to that a basic lye-based soap can help cleanse the skin and fight the P. acnes infection that causes acne pimples. Lye in soap was phased out in during World War I when the shortage of animal fats used to create soap occurred and synthetic soap powders were invented. Octagon Washing Soap can be found in stores like Walmart and can be used for acne treatment.
Finally, something in your kitchen that can fight acne is lemon juice. Lemon juice has disinfectant properties. Lemon juice does indeed help to clear up acne. When applied topically on the skin, the acid in lemon juice breaks down the main acne-causing bacteria, P. acnes. The citric acid cleans out clogged pores and makes them appear smaller. Acne products can be expensive. Lemon juice is relatively inexpensive and affordable to most anyone. The acne fighting effects should be noticed within a few days of use. It can also be used to disinfect minor wounds, scratches, and tears in the skin.
Home remedies for pimples can be found most places in your home if you look hard enough. Take some time to look in your cabinets to see how you can save money and treat acne at the same time.

If you want to get rid of acne, you just have to be smart:
1. Wash your face every morning and night, and whenever else it gets dirty or sweaty.
2. Make sure to have a clean pillow case.
3. Keep hair OUT of face. When sleeping, keep tied back.
4. do NOT wear a lot of concealer make up. It only clogs your pores and pimples so that they stay.
5. Stay away from excessive amounts of unhealthy foods; try to eat healthy.
6. Dont pop your zits it makes them worsen, redden, and scar.
7. Weekly face masks
8. Use hot water to clean acne, and cold water to seal it.
9. Press hot steamed washcloths to the face to make pimples un-reddened. And if you really need to pop the pimples, do so gently and use the steamed washcloth before and after popping to reduce the risk of scarring.
10. Don’t touch face, wash hands frequently.
11. Don’t sleep with makeup on, it worsens acne.
12. Reduce stress. Try yoga or some sort of physical activity that let’s out stress.
13. Stay positive. If you believe that you can get rid of your acne, then you can.
P.s: toothpaste and baking soda works for some people, you just got to find out if it’ll work for you.
