Cosmetics
Avoid cosmetics that have isopropyl myristate, larueth-4, lanolin, sodium lauryl sulfate and C & D red dyes. READ THE LABELS. Like any oil, these ingredients are too rich and will clog your pores and inflame your acne. Whatever makeup you may use, it is better if you use less of it. Every night, thoroughly wash your makeup off your face. Make sure you have thoroughly rinsed the soap too with 7 or 8 rinses. Clinical research has shown that some birth control pills such as Loestrin, Norinyl, Ovral and Norlestrin can promote acne. You might consider switching to a different pill or using another method.

Clay and Vitamin E
Here is an acne home remedy that got rid of my blackheads and zits in only three days. So you do this 3 times every day. First scrub your face with a good cleanser. Use warm water and lather for several minutes. It is important to work the cleanser into your skin in a gentle motion using your fingertips. Then put on any clay mask that has bentonite clay or kaolin. Put it over your whole face and leave it to dry. Rinse off the mask by adding water and massaging the water into the clay so that it will easily rinse off. Get a good vitamin E oil – natural not synthetic. Work this into your skin by massaging it. Excess can by removed by patting with toilet paper or a towel. This will feel oily at first but it is great for your skin and acne scars will not form. I had really bad acne and doing this three times daily for three days made me look like a brand new person. I use Neutrogena oil free acne wash containing salicylic acid (which is in plain aspirin), Clarity Mask by Oil of Olay and a good vitamin E.

Avoid Constipation
Too avoid constipation and maintain a clean bowel, drink some hot milk before bed. Or eat some boiled spinach before meals. The toxins from the intestines can often lead to break outs and this will help in this regard. This is a good home treatment for acne.
***
Overwashing
Over washing the skin will cause dryness and aggravate acne.
***
Garlic
Garlic is one of the top 5 herbal remedies of all time worldwide. It is very powerful. Crush a clove of garlic in a garlic press and rub or massage the acne areas with this in the morning and at night. Garlic is a potent antibiotic and will cleanse the skin. Also, take 3 cloves of fresh garlic with meals each day. Do not take fresh garlic on an empty stomach. Internal garlic consumption will purify the blood thus keeping acne at bay. This is a very effective natural home remedy for acne.
