I found that putting a little bit of toothpaste on the pimple you want gone before you go to bed fixed my problem, but then again everyones skin is different.
Also, after I get burn on my cheeks or face my skin clears right up. I'm not recommending you go and get sunburnt badly on your face but if you want to get a little bit of colour and see if it works :)
6 things must be done EVERYDAY to reduce/prevent acne: 1)Wash, Tone, Moisturize Face 2or3 Times 2)Don't Let Dirty Things Touch Face 3)Eat Healthy Food, Limit Junk Food 4)Take Multi Vitamin Mineral 5)Drink About 64 oz Pure Water 6)Do 20to30 Min Aerobic Exercise. Doing 1 or a few of these will NOT keep skin clear as possible!
Use 3 things on face: Wash, Toner, Moisturizer. Do this at least 2x a day, morning & night (possibly 3rd time, midday, if super oily/sweating). Products that work for one person may not work for another person, so always do small patch test on face for a couple of days to see how skin will react to product! Don't quickly jump from product to product! Give skin a break before trying new product to prevent irritation! Natural & gentle products are sometimes more effective than acne medicine!
NATURAL & GENTLE: Wash face with warm water & Purpose Gentle Cleansing Bar by Johnson & Johnson.
