   Hi there! I Know this answer is really long.! But trust me, it worked for me and hoping you too!
   1.Drink plenty of water. It goes without saying that water is healthy for the body in many ways. It cleanses the body and flushes out harmful toxins. It has also been shown to improve the complexion and help eliminate acne. Drink at least 8 glasses a day to get the most benefit from it.

   2.2
   Make yourself a home remedy. Mix cucumber juice with the juices of lettuce, carrot or alfalfa and apply to your face. Leave on for about 10 minutes and rinse thoroughly.

   3.3
   Go out and buy yourself a tomato. Now crush it up and use its pulp by applying it directly on the acne. Let the pulp do its work for about a half an hour and then rinse it off with warm water. This is how to get rid of acne naturally without the expense.

   4.4
   Crush up some mint leaves to obtain their juices. Apply the juices on your face and leave on for a few minutes. You can also do the same with toothpaste; however, do not use the gel variety.

   5.5
   Avoid picking or squeezing your pimples. This will cause more acne and actually worsens your skin. Besides, this doesn’t do anything to get rid of the problem.

   6.6
   Learn effective ways to manage your stress level. Acne breakouts are generally due to hormonal changes in your body, which is why so many teenagers going through puberty are affected. Make sure to get plenty of sleep and exercise as well. Learning how to get rid of acne naturally doesn’t even have to involved the use of a product.

   7.7
   Mix water with baking soda until it turns into a paste, then gently massage it on your face for about 30 seconds. Rinse the scrub off thoroughly. This works as an exfoliate which removes dead skin and oil that causes acne. You can also use plain oatmeal for the same affect. Simply cook the oatmeal, let it cool, and apply to your face for a few minutes. The oatmeal absorbs the oil from your face.

   8.8
   Apply some tea tree oil directly on your acne spots. The tea tree oil will kill bacteria because it works as a natural antiseptic.

   9.9
   Take nutritional supplements that are high in vitamins A, B6 and B3 as well as zinc. You can also control your acne by eating healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables. Also, you should try to avoid caffeine and chocolate as much as possible. Not only does eating healthy help with acne but it also helps you maintain a glowing, vibrant skin.

   10.10
   Trying to figure out how to get rid of acne naturally doesn’t have to be a problem for you any longer, simply by follow some of the tips above.

   NOW! this is a daily basis. I Have noticed when i used paid proscriptions like proactive it makes skin blochy and even worse! Hope this helped muchly!

   My friend gave me a facial recipe a few months ago when I was breaking out really bad due to stress. It worked SO well and the next few days my face was clearing up. It was amazing haha :) Here is the aspirin facial recipe:

   . 2-4 uncoated aspirin tablets (you can get them reallly cheap at like target or whatever. They MUST be uncoated, although sometimes the bottle says clear coated. Uncoated aspirin should look white and chalky, not smooth or colored, this means they are coated.)
   . 1 teaspoon honey
   Place aspirin on plate or in a small bowl. Using your finger, place one or two drops of warm or hot water on them so they dissolve. After a few moments, they should be soft and grainy enough so you can mush them up with your finger. If not, add another drop of water. Now add your honey, and stir with your finger. Apply to face (best if it’s clean–as in no makeup) massaging gently in small circles. If any area of your face is broken out with inflammatory (red, sore, or swollen pimples) don’t rub hard and apply carefully so that you do not irritate your skin and inflame it more. Leave on for 10 to 30 minutes (the longer you leave it on, the better it works. My friend sometimes sleeps in it but that would be super messy.) then rinse with lukewarm water. (Not too hot! It can irritate sensitive skin.) It’s easiest to rinse it off in the shower in case you’ve gotten honey in your hair (I always do…) Use the mask 1 or 2 times a week.

   I have acne problems too =[
   my mom told me a trick that has been working for me, maybe itll work for you too.
   she puts a squirt of lotion on her palm (we have st ives)
   then dash a little salt in it not too much but enough to mix them together.
   mix them with your finger then apply it to your pimples.
   keep it on overnight and wash it off in the morning.
   its really good at reducing the size and redness.
   recently my mom started using neosporin and salt instead of lotion and she said that combo worked even better but both are good.
   try it and hopefully itll work well for you too, good luck! :]

   # Become well-acquainted with baking soda. Seriously, it may seem odd, but baking soda has become one of my best allies in fighting acne. Simply make a paste of baking soda and water (you want to aim for a slightly-thinner than toothpaste consistency) and rub it gently on your skin for about 30 seconds after you have used your facial cleaner. Then, rinse it off gently with warm water. While you can use this two times a day (morning and night), I recommend only using it at night, as it can irritate sensitive skin. As we all know, irritation can only make acne worse.

   __________________
   Acne treatments such as benzoyl peroxide, topical antibiotics, alpha- and beta-hydroxy acid creams, and tretinoin
   For acne-prone skin, try one of these:

   * Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Cleanser
   * Topix Benzoyl Peroxide 5% Wash
   ____________
   Best Practices
   # Wear protective clothing and hats as an additional measure of protection.
   # Avoid the sun during peak hours (10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.)
   #Apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes BEFORE you go out into the sun
   If you go into the sun immediately after applying sunscreen, stay in the shade for the first 30 minutes.
   #Reapply your sunscreen about every 2 hours.
   #Use an SPF-containing lip balm whenever you are out in the sun.

   Tips for Preventing Breakouts
   * Choose "noncomedogenic" hair, skin, & makeup products.
   * Avoid touching your face with your hands. Hands can spread bacteria to facial pores.
   * Rinse off soon after working out to help prevent sweat and skin oils from mixing and clogging pores.
   * Avoid overwashing or using harsh scrubs. These can cause excess oil production.
   * Keep stress under control. Stress doesn’t cause acne, but it may lead to overproduction of skin oils.

   Acne Prevention Tips
   1. Cleanse regularly 2. Exfoliate
   3. Use salicyclic acid 4. Use benzoyl peroxide

   "Its a process of the pores getting clogged, bacteria growing in the pores, [and pores] getting inflamed," Things you need to do are deep cleansing, using benzyl peroxide & using salicylic acid.

   Natural Acne Remedies
   The most effective means of treating acne-prone skin is to employ varying water temperatures. Washing your face with warm to hot water removes dirt, oil and makeup and opens the skin’s pores; rinsing with cool water will then shrink pores and stimulate circulation.
   "Cool water is actually a bit of an anti-inflammatory,
   additional acne treatment: pumpkin.
   Mix 200 grams of pumpkin pulp with 1 tablespoon of non-fat sour cream and apply it to your face. Leave it on for 20 minutes and then rinse with cool water. This will cleanse your face, open up your pores and give your skin a glow!

   For another simple pimple remedy, recommends soaking a chamomile teabag in warm water, then applying the teabag to the affected area for 15 minutes. The teabag works as a warm compress and contains flavonoids and bisabolol, which have anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe the pimple and reduce redness.
