on 11/22/2005 Use cornmeal to exfoliate your face - it's awesome. It helps eliminate blackheads, and I rarely get any blackheads now because of cornmeal. Also, Neutrogena Clear Pore works really well in preventing breakouts.

on 11/22/2005 Drink lots of water! Always keep a bottle of water in your car, in your purse or at your desk. Also, try to stay away from processed food. Eat food that is alive - fruits and vegetables are very good.

on 11/22/2005 You should drink water. You don't have to drink water all the time, but some would help.

on 11/22/2005 Raisins cleanse your body naturally, and you only need to eat a handful a day for them to clear up your face.

on 11/22/2005 I have tried it many times and it always works! Just apply some toothpaste (doesn't matter which brand) before you go to bed right on the pimple and the next morning the pimple will be noticeably smaller and dried up!It really works!

on 11/22/2005 Unless your skin is super-oily, always use a moisturizer after drying out your face. Sometimes your worst acne is on dry skin, so go easy on the alcohol.

on 11/22/2005 If you are a girl and you wear a lot of makeup, then listen up. If you know that you aren't going anywhere for the weekend, don't put any cover-up on. Give your skin a chance to breathe for a while.

on 11/22/2005 Try not to scrub your face. Trust me, it only makes it worse.

on 11/22/2005 I'm now 15 and have had acne for years. ProActive is the only product that I've tried that really works. My skin has been clear for over a year; this stuff is great!

on 11/22/2005 All you have to do is take a washcloth or towel and run it under hot water. Then place it wherever the pimple is. The steam makes the pimple smaller. Trust me, it works!

on 11/22/2005 Applying Visine (redness reliever for eyes) to a pimple will constrict the blood vessels and minimize the redness.

on 11/22/2005 I am 14 years old and have had bad acne since I was 10 or so. I have tried everything. The only thing that has worked for me is PROACTIVE. My face has been almost clear for 2 months. I don't wear foundation anymore!

on 11/22/2005 Two or three hours prior to going to bed, wash your face, then dab a little toothpaste on the entire pimple. Let it sit for at least 30 min., then wash away. Repeat this for a few days. You'll notice it will go away faster than if you just wash it.

on 11/22/2005 Dab orange juice onto your face with a cotton ball. It works! Don't wash your face with harsh soap; keep your face moist, not dry.
