Thread: What are some ways of getting rid of pimples?

I have some but they come and go so quickly. Im just like so happy when it leaves but then they come right back...

In my opinion, the best over the counter method of dealing with pimples is a product called Proactiv. Otherwise, make sure you wash the area twice a day with a mild soap

proactive works!

clinique is wonderful, but expensive.
the thing you want to do is prevent, not spot treat.

aveeno clear complexion foaming cleanser is amazing. i use it everyday and my skin is sooo clear. it's awesome. it's cheap too. hope i can help :]

I used tea tree oil gels from Body Shop and very mild cleanser (Cetaphil). I think Cetaphil has products for oily skin as well. It worked OK for me, but eventually the only thing that really worked was growing out of it

I think you should try out some cleansers and cream and see what one works the best for you here are some examples:
1) Clean and Clear
2)Proactiv
3)Clinque.
Good luck! Hope you find the right way.

keep a healthy diet, becoz i dont know about other people but when ive been eating unhealthy i break out lol. Try not to wear make-up and if you do wash your face when you get home, never go to slep wearing makeup. dont use soap either. i find it blocks paws and dehydrates skin. i use a mild face wash n i usually like minty ones because it makes me feel refreshed. also if you have a short fringe and its sometime on ur face i find the oils from hair get the skin going aswell. pimples are usually a part of puberty and because of hormones. so yer hope that helps =)

Arbonne International makes a much healthier alternative to Proactiv. It uses a salicylic acid instead of a benzoyl peroxide. It has zinc for faster healing, and a vitamin supplement to push toxins out of your skin. It also comes with a 45 day money back guarantee. Whatever you choose to use, stick with it for at least two months. Your skin is going to go through some changes before you know if it works. Best of luck!

i know this sounds compleatly crazy, but ive been trying tihis latly, AND IT DOES WORK!!!
what u do is get a disposable cup, some Q-tips, baking soda, toothpick, mouthwash(must kill germs)
put about 4tbs baking soda in the cup, add about 2 1/2 tbs mouthwash, stir with toothpick, and the consistancy should be a light paste. take Qtip, and dip it in the solution, dab on pimples. u should expect this to tingle a bit since it is killing all of the nasty bacteria in ur pores, and also drawing it out, along with greece. this works trust me from experence, but remember to rice it off in about 1hr!
in adition to this you should boil a pot of water each morning (or as many morings as you can), and wait untill it starts to steam, then put your face above the pot, but make sure you are a safe distance away from the stem (aprox 1foot), cause a burn dosnent look good either! after you have "saunaed" ur face, while your poors are still open rince ur face with ice cold filtered water (you dont need more bacteria buildup).
at night simply rince your face with ice cold water, dry ur face, then use the pimple solution agian, and rince off when u wake up!
happy to help
