    I have been suffering from acne problems and sometimes they really get worse. I have tried many of the anti-acne products available but I am not satisfied with them as I feel that the results they give are just a matter of time. Can anyone suggest me a good remedy for this?

    One of the first things to getting rid of acne is to try to determine the cause. Allergies, stress, hormonal flucuations (i.e. PMS, weight loss/gain)can all contribute to acne break-outs. You may want to talk to your doctor or dermatologist just to rule out these factors.

    The rest I'm sure you've heard a thousand times and will all seem pretty common sense, but trust me, developing a routine and sticking with it are the only way to combat acne.

    *Change your bed linens at least once a week.
    *Use a fresh towel every day.
    *Stop using fabric softeners, fabric fresheners, etc. These all leave residues which may be contributing to your problem.
    *Wash, rinse, repeat. Twice a day. A simple skin care routine proves more effective than a cabinet full of pimple pads.
    *If you need an extra boost to clear up a break out, use a product containing tea tree oil. (Paul Mitchell tea tree shampoo can also be used as a face/body wash - not only does it work exceptionally well, it *tingles*, too!) You can even add a few drops to your regular face wash or dab it on the problem areas as a night treatment.
    *If you have long hair, wear it off your face/neck between washings, especially at night.

    Godd luck, hope this help! ^_^

    I use egg white to get rid of pimples.. What you do is seperate the yellow from the white then take a wire wisk and wisk the egg white until it looks kinda like foam.. Then take a cotton call and apply it to your face let it dry and stay on there for awhile, I have left mine on all night long before and the next day the bump will be alot smaller just repeat this until all bumps are gone...
    Let me know how it works for you. I hope that you have as much sucess as I did.

    Both my sister's husband and myself suffered from acne a couple years ago. He went to see a doctor about it, and was asked how much he touched his face during the day- he was extremely puzzled by this question until the doctor told him that many times every day we touch our faces without realizing it, and even though they look clean and dry- there is still bacteria, dirt and oil on them, and its all transferred to your face everytime your fingers come in contact. Try to not touch your fingers to your face, it worked for me; and yes, stress and anxiety doesnt help but i know that i end up rubbing my forehead or putting my hands on my face when i get like that also. give it a try-it might help more then you think!
