I dont really want any tips about going to a dermatoligist or buying products. I want some homemade acne treatments. But if you know any products that are really really helpful, please list it. (: thanks

Toothpaste works great and fast for breakouts. Make sure it is minty and a paste (often white or pale green and opaque).
Also taking Zinc and vitamin A are very good for your skin. The results are very similar to or better than using typical acne drugs like Tetracycline and Accutane.
I used to use a scrub of lemon juice and sugar with a little bit of baking soda that used to help dry up my acne.
Tooth paste works well too. Just dab a little on the zit.
The most effective way to get rid of acne is through the use of acne cleansers and products (Clean & Clear works very well). If you do go to the store, look for acne face cleansers and body washes for your chest and back.
If you want home treatments, these are some of the ones I suggest:
* Cook oatmeal and apply on face for fifteen minutes, then wash.
* Apply equal amount of lemon juice and rose water with a cotton ball, leave for half an hour and wash. Repeat for 15-20 days
* Rub the acne with garlic cloves several times a day
* Mix 1 tablespoon of dried or fresh yeast with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice; apply on face, wait until it gets hard (try not to move), peel or wash with warm water.
* Mix 2-3 tea bags to some basil and cook in boiling water for 10-20 minutes. Then apply on the acne with a cotton ball.
* Boil water in a pan, add some apple cider vinegar. Cool, put a towel on your head and bend over the pan.
* Drink Carrot/ cucumbers juice or eat carrots or cucumbers.
* Squeeze cucumbers and apply the juice on the acne with cotton wool pads
* Apply some toothpaste on the acne. Do NOT apply on skin because it will make it dry, only on the acne spots
** Consume only limited amounts of dairy products as they will increase your acne. =]

I recommend using a tea tree soap bar twice a day. Then after apply Tea Tree Oil. It is natural and the oil is an antiseptic so it kills germs on your skin. It doesn’t dry out my face or clog pores. I have been using it for a few months and my skin is 100% different. Make sure you use it everyday. You will see results in a week. You can buy it at health stores and one brand I use is “Thursday Plantation”. It is about 15$. I highly recommend this practice. It really works and is good for your skin!
Good luck
take showers
Proactiv and tons of water. Also try to visit the swimming pool as much as possible; the chlorine in the water dries out your skin which reall helps to clear up acne.

Maybe you should try Proactive Solutions. It works for many people, you can order it from the tv and online I think. Don’t eat too many fried foods. Acne will eventually go away once you get older. I hope the best for you <3

Check out this site. It has some very helpful information.
ACTIVIA!!
drink lots of water
Put alcohol on your face after to take a shower. That’s the best advice I can give you in which you don’t have to buy a product for acne. The most effective way, however, is to buy an acne product, but if you do not wish to do so, or if you cannot afford one, alcohol, from my personal experience, is the second best way.
Swimming pool. really works…. and just wait it out maybe when you get older it will go away. go to the dermatologist see if its in your genes.
I use this really good acne treatment (sulfer) and it’s called Bye Bye Blemisih
1. take 2 showers a day- wash skin twice a day and hair once
2. after you wash your face and body in the morning use this scrub on your face,back,chest,and the rest of your body:
*brown sugar scrub
1 part honey
2 parts extra virgin olive oil
3 parts brown sugar
3. follow with a light lotion with sunscreen (same with back and chest)
4. wash your face at night and follow with a light moisturizer(same with back and chest)
The best way to get rid of acne is to stay away from greasy foods and drink at least 6-8oz glasses of water a day, I drink water all day and bake everything and drain the fat, Use egg whites, Remove the yolk, mix the egg whites, apply it to your face like a mask and it dries like one leave on for 20 or more minutes & peel off, Repeat every day and do not use hot water on your face ever! And don’t use anything else on your face if you want it to clear up nicely, I have told other people this and their acne cleared up & yours will too!

The tricky part about acne is that the problem can actually become worse if you overmedicate. That’s because acne medication can overdry the skin, causing a boost in your skin’s Sebum (oil) production. This results in…you guessed it – more acne.
So what’s the long term solution? Find gentler solutions or even natural acne cures that won’t shock your body into more breakouts. Here’s what I recommend:
- Use a glycerin based facewash. Glycerin is gentler and will balance the ph levels in your skin.
- For body acne, try using an antibacterial soap to slowly dry out the skin. If your skin gets too dry, switch to a moisterizing soap like Dove to counterbalance the effect.
- Wash your face only 2 times a day max and gently pat dry with a towel.
- Use a gentle face moisterizer if the glycerin based face wash drys you out too much.
- Eat almonds, fiber, drink lots of water and avoid excess sugar intake.
- If acne medication isn’t working or causing new breakouts, try applying egg whites to the pimples at night before bed. This natural remedy works great.
- One of my favorite natural skin conditioners is wearing an “oatmeal mask”. The oatmeal with smooth your skin while simultaneously absorb toxins and oils from your pores.
- Tea Oil works great on acne as well. Tea Tree Oil is an antifungal that will kill bacteria in the skin gently. You can pick it up at most drug stores and health food stores.
- Rubbing a slice of lemon on acne will dry out the pimple and balance the pH levels in the skin. Some people don’t enjoy smelling like a lemon but the solution does work.
- Put a dab of rubbing alcohol on pimples after you pop them. The alcohol will kill bacteria, shrink the pimple and dry out oily pores.

Best of Luck!
Drink WATER!
Not too much pop…
and maybe a little bit of fruit juice…but NOT too much.
Mostly WATER. =D
Mix equal parts of baking soda and water. Mix so the baking soda isn’t settled at the bottom of the container and use a cotton ball to add to your face. Sleep with it on and wash it off in the morning.
