Don't pick or press your pimples. If you do you will spread the bacteria under the skin wich will promote swelling and increase your risk of scaring.

Wash once or twice a day. But go easy, washing with soap only removes the oil from surface and not the blocked pores. Use an oil free anti-bacterial face wash containing salicylic acid such as clearpores.

Don't use oily products like oil-based skin cleanser and moisturizers.

Don't use cleaners with granules such as exfoliating soaps or wallnut hulls.

Facials do more harm than good. And try to use water based make-up.

Try avoiding touching your face, like resting your chin or cheeks in your hands. Fingers are very oily and full of bacteria.

Use herbal supplements to fight the acne bacteria from inside where it grows. Dandelion root, aloe vera and yellow dock a a few of the herbs wich rebuild cells and can help reduce inflammation.

Try to avoid products containing benzyl peroxide this ingredient is quite strong and reduces skin moisture and causes skin irritation and severe redness.

Use a water based product containing salicylic acid(2%) and SD alcohol 40 (1%). These medications are used as skin treatments to treat acne, remove warts and to treat psoriasis and other skin conditions. Dermatologists recommend 2% of salicylic acid as the perfect amount to treat acne.
