"Pimple are caused by the over production of sebum oil, which lubricates the skin and hair. I'm Jackie, with how to get rid of pimples. When the skins pores become clogged with sebum, pimples can form. Talk to your doctor if your acne is serious, or if you're unable to control it. To get rid of pimples and care for your skin, wash no more than twice a day with warm water, and a mild cleanser specially formulated for oily skin or acne. Try over the counter benzoyl peroxide products if you have pimples. Wash your hands often, and try to keep them away from your face. For girls, wash your make up brushes and sponges often. Talk to your doctor if your acne is serious or if you're unable to control it. For a natural solution, try baking soda. Wet your skin, and pour about 2 tablespoons of baking soda into your palm, add enough water to make a paste. Apply the paste to your face in light circular motions, like this, for about a minute, and rinse well with clean lukewarm water. Pat lightly to dry, and apply a benzoyl peroxide product only to the blemishes. Allow that to dry, and dab a little of the baking soda paste to the spots, leave it on over night. Remember, to get rid of pimples, wash your face twice a day, use a baking soda paste, and check with your doctor for serious conditions. I'm Jackie, with how to get rid of pimples. Have a beautiful day."
