Treat Back acne with home made products?

Hello! I was wondering what some products at home can treat back acne. I was happy that I treated my chest acne, It was a pleasant sign :) I tried to use the same method on my back, But it only removed Some of them, But they just keep on popping up. If this helps i live in Cali, Where the heat is unbearable :S. And i've heard that the heat has to also do something about it. Can someone list some home made things to treat acne and actually worked on you or someone you know? I WILL GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!! Like really. Someone really special will be coming soon and I'm trying to look my best :) THANX AGAIN!!!
Thanx for all your answers!! :) I'll see which one I'll get =D and if it helps i use a Loofah. Is there anything better than a loofah?

How do you get rid of chest/shoulder acne?

I never had it in high school, ever. But since going to college, I've experienced acne on my chest and shoulders. It's pretty mild but enough so that I won't wear tank tops or anything that shows my chest at all.
I've tried all sorts of treatments and used an exfoliating loofah and all sorts of things, but it seems like it might actually be worse.
Aren't pimples supposed to be less frequent in your twenties than in your teen years?!?!

Is this a good morning routine?

Well, Ive never really had to do any acne treatments because i never really broke out at all and i really kept myself clean. Well surprisingly now im breaking out in whiteheads and small pimples. im like NO! im also trying to lose about 15 pounds that i gained on my vacation. Those buffets sure get ya! hahaha. well heres what im planning to do:
Wake up at 6 am go on elliptical for 20 minutes.
Take a 10 minute shower. Use Noxzema Deep Lathering Cleanser in shower (ive always used this)
I use Hydrating Teatree Mint Shampoo and Conditioner. I also deep condition with Garnier Fructis 3 Minute Masque once every two weeks. I use a loofah to exfoliate my skin, does that work? So if im really breaking out i use my proactiv renewing cleanser on the spots with most zits. Then i get out and comb my hair and then apply Biosilk Silk Treatment to my damp hair. I then use my stridex acne pads. Then 3 times a week i moisturize with either aveeno clear complextion moisterizer or proactiv oil free moisturizer with spf 15. Then i get dressed, let my hair air dry, and eat a fruit for breakfast. When my hair is dry, i straighten it. I put it in layers and use my Pantene Shine and Heat protection spray on each layer. Either i straighten it or curl or just leave it or do something lol. After that im pretty much done and just apply my usual every day makeup. I get my stuff together and then go on the computer or something and then leave for work. I dont eat lunch all day other than maybe a water, juice, and a granola bar or something. Then i get home and eat a nice healthy dinner. Sounds good? My coworker who i am very close to pointed out that i was getting a few pimples and i freaked. (we are really good friends lol) im glad she pointed it out. But what i noticed by myself is that i went for a good 120 to 145 in 8 days at my resort! CRAZY!!! lol so thanks in advance plz helP!

How do you treat acne spots?

I have deep acne spots on the back of my shoulders and it is from my detangler and heat protectant after my shower. Now I know how it started I wear a tshirt when I do my hair and not a little undershirt

In general though, does anyone know how to fade those ugly spots. Is there a loofah, a treatment to fade them?

How to get rid of bacne fast!? (back acne)?

My grad is coming up in June and i NEED to have an acne free back by then, so i can wear my dress.
I have pretty severe acne, but not cystic. It's on my shoulders, lower back, upper back, and neck. I hate it. It's disgusting and no one else has it! Facts: I shower everyday, i use head&shoulders shampoo, i dont condition my hair, i use a scrub and a loofah on my back, and i use a spot treatment on horrible spots. I can't wear a tank top let alone a friggin t-shirt! PLEASE HELP ME!!
I'm looking for home remedy type of cures that will get rid of my bacne for good within atleast a month or less! (: Don't just respond telling me how to prevent, i would like a cure too! And don't say accutane, proactiv, murad, etc. Any miracle cures that worked for you!? PLEASEEE do tell! :D

Acne on chest and back — what should I be using?

I use face wash on my chest for acne there (it's mild -- tiny whiteheads and red bumps), but for my back I usually either just scrub with something like St. Ives facial scrubs or I scrub with a loofah and my regular bodywash. My bacne is worse; large, red, painful bumps. How can I eliminate both of these? I shower daily and scrub at least every other day.
