How to Rid Yourself of Acne

Have you ever had acne before, and wondered how to cure it? Well, many people have and don't want to spend a ton of money on a dermatologist. Here's a foolproof way to rid yourself of acne.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Rubbing alcohol
• Soap that you're not allergic to
• washcloth/loofa
• something to keep your hair out of your face

1. 
   Hair Clips

   Keep your hair out of your face at ALL TIMES! Make sure that it's not touching your face or anything, because grease/oil could get into your skin and clog up the pores, causing pimples. So keep your hair out of your face 24/7 for a week. You can't let it down even once.

2. 
   Dove Facial Foam

   Wash your face three times a day. If you think you have a reaction to the soap, then switch or use a different type. Scrub with cold water and soap in the morning, when you get home from school or the afternoon, and before you go to bed. This should probably make it go away.

3. 
   Rubbing Alcohol

   If the area where you have acne is really oily, try putting rubbing alcohol on it every night. Not too much though, because it makes it really dry really fast.

4. AVOID POPPING PIMPLES. It causes other pimples to come up and can permenantly damage your skin.

Tips & Warnings

• make sure not to use too much conditioner when you wash your hair. It can get on your body and make it more oily.
• If your acne is too serious to be cured by washing your face every day, then you might want to consider seeing a dermatologist.
• Don't scrub your face too hard if using a washcloth or a loofa. It could cause it to get raw and make the acne worse.
