Benzoyl peroxide gel and salicylic acid gel: These two over the counter gels are very effective to get rid of acne and pimples within 3 - 4 days. Just apply any one of them on the spot and leave it overnight. Wash in the morning.
Don't touch your face: Touching your face too often tends to transfer the dirt from your finger to get accumulated in the face and clogs the pores and due to this pimples breakout occurs.
Don't over clean your face: Washing your face twice a day is much better than washing it 5-6 times as this leads to over production of oil and breakouts, unless your job is such which demands for frequent cleaning.
Avoid processed food: Processed foods have unhealthy fats and oils which results in excess oil in the body and which results in acne breakouts. Avoid them for healthy skin and body.
Keep your cholesterol in check: High Cholesterol also leads to skin breakouts.
Exercise: Exercise regularly as it not only benefits your body but also helps to flush out toxins from the body with sweat and thus helping the skin.

Home remedies to get rid of acne and pimples
- Home remedies to get rid of acne and pimples
Acne has always been a problem amongst teenagers and some adults. It is not always necessary to spend money on acne products for clearing up pimples. I have compiled a list of the top acne treatments using ingredients found in most households.
A natural homemade remedy is the right way for your skin because they are not just simple to make but are cost-effective as well. Some people find it hard to adapt because of the mind set created by commercial instant products but surely they should be adopted because they come with no side-effects. What you put on your skin is just as important as what you eat. The main concern for commercial products is that more often then not they contain chemicals that are absorbed by your skin finding their way into the bloodstream which can be harmful to your overall health.
Toothpaste - Probably the most common of acne home remedies, toothpaste is know to reduce the swelling of acne over night. Simply apply a small amount of toothpaste (paste, not gel) to your pimples.

Lots of useful information in this lense. I've struggled with acne for years and finally found some things that worked for me, I wish that when I was younger there had been better sources of information (and, frankly, better acne products).
