The first rule of acne elimination is to not pick, press, rub, squeeze or manipulate your pimples in any way. Doing so will simply aggravate them, increase the chances of spreading, and increasing the chances of scarring.

Washing the face helps, but don’t over cleanse. Over cleansing may lead to you irritating the sensitive skin.

Maintain a healthy, balanced diet with plenty of vitamins, minerals and fibre. Make sure you include plenty of zinc in your diet as this is a fantastic acne eliminator.

Use a mild soap and rub lightly with your fingertips and warm water at least twice a day.

Use a water based make-up.

Having a facial is not recommended. If you have acne, stay clear from facials.

Exposure to light also has proven to help in the fight against acne. Getting out in the sun is one of the best natural ways to cure acne.

Exercise regularly. Exercise helps in improving blood circulation and helps to eliminate toxins.

Keep your stress levels as low as possible. Stress worsens acne flare-ups and your overall skin condition. There many natural methods to reduce stress, such as regular exercise, relaxation techniques and herbal remedies.

Going on any cleansing or detoxifying diet will help clear up acne, but remember it can sometimes get worse before it gets better, because your body starts pushing toxins out faster once you start a cleanse.

Change your pillow sheets as often as possible. The bacteria gets on the pillow sheet and spreads when in contact with your face, causing more acne breakouts.

Adequate sleep is an essential requirement for health, and especially for healthy skin. Get your full quota of rest each night to reduce acne breakouts.
