Since highschool, I have been dealing with my problem of having pimples in my face. Because of this, I lost some of my self-confidence. So, I went to the dermatologist for consultation. Good thing she fixed the problem and I started seeing my pimples go away. She said that I needed to have a facial every month and she prescribed me with lotion, soap, and toner for my face. From then on, I didn't have pimples anymore but it cost me a fortune for all the medication I've acquired. The doctor said that I need to maintain these so that I won't get pimples again. But these are very expensive. Do you know any cheaper or natural remedies that are effective for a smoother, clean and pimple free face? Any beauty tips? I am a guy and I don't know much about beauty tips or beauty products and cosmetics.

How about always wash your face before you sleep? Don't use soap, just a towel will do plus a hot water. Make sure that you don't get burned also. Then sleep, take a nap or a break whenever you feel tired. Less stress, less pimples. Eat vegetables and fruits. Less fat. Pimples develops on the surface of the skin due to oil and bacteria. If you're face feels like oily just use a cotton and a solution of Witch-Hazel to get rid of it. Tap the cotton with Witch-Hazel on your face. Do not be too harsh on your skin and prevent applying pressure on your face.

By the way, in washing your face using the warm water, massage parts of your face in a circular motion. Remember, do not apply pressure.

Witch-Hazel is a herb that is good for the skin. It's a good cleanser and has anti-inflammatory effects. What you need from this kind of herb is it's cleansing capabilities. Natural cleansers made from witch-hazel is already in the market. If you take the time to look around body shops, you might find a facial cleanser named Witch-Hazel there. I'm sorry! I must have accidentally pressed the response button instead of the comment button. This is where I'm supposed to post. Don't worry, I've already reported the response to the admit to be deleted.

Well i made a discussion here about simple home remedies on pimples, it is effective for girls and guys, here it is, this you may find useful.. Apply garlic paste over them or rub one or two cloves of cut garlic; this prevents infection. Apply egg white with a cotton swab, wash with warm water after 15 minutes; this prevents recurrence of pimples. Mix paste of sandal wood, tender neem leaves with rose water, apply at bed time, wash with warm water in morning. Apply paste made from powder of orange skin dried in shade and mixed in water, apply at bed time, wash with warm water in morning. Always avoid oily, spicy foods, keep your bowel clean.

I have no problem regarding my face. I am not using any beauty products because I am contented having no pimples, white heads, and blackheads. For those asking for my secret, I have a cheap remedy for a smoother, pimple free face, it’s just a lemon. Just apply lemon juice on you face 10 minutes before taking a bath.
