Cordelia	Here's one that really works on those nasty bump-zits. Simply slice some Garlic thinly and place over the zit with a bandaid when you go to sleep. The next morning, it should be gone or greatly diminished. Also, take Zinc and msm orally. - I use the stuff that dissolves right in water so no pills are needed. Was this answer helpful to you?

sweeta :	Dandelion Yellow Dock is a natural way to go. It's in a form of a capsule and can be taken internally. It's safe and is helps to clean your blood. That can be purchased with supplements at your local health food store. Also, use warm water and non fragrant soap, and a Gentle moisturizer. Wash your face twice per day, and don't touch your face with your hands unless you wash your hands first. Reduce caffeine intake, and avoid greasy foods. It would be good to find out if your break outs are due to hormones, though. If hormones are the reason, then you might need help from a dermatologist. Some people get on the pill to adjust their hormone production. That sometimes takes care of the problem. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mary Lee	Yes, there are some home remedies for acne such as the following: • Wash the face twice daily with a tea of Calendula officinalis, • Mix 1 teaspoon lemon juice with 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder. Apply this paste on the pimples and wash it after 20 minutes with warm water. Repeat for two weeks, • Use aloe vera juice on the pimples morning and night for as long as necessary (perhaps five months or longer). • Make orange peel paste by grinding it in some water. Apply on and around pimples. • Rub Garlic on and around pimples.

Sian Bella	Hi there, I definitely agree with some of the comments below. Firstly, it depends on where the acne is and what type? If you are just talking a few spots, then diet, lifestyle (i.e. reducing stress, smoking, caffeine, alcohol and increasing water and excercise) can do wonders! If you have acne on your chin and upper back, or even around the neck / throat area, this can be more indicative of hormonal disturbances. In which case, I can't go into that here. When the liver and kidneys are working hard, your biggest organ - the skin! - takes up the slack. Try some hot water and a good squeeze of lemon first thing in the morning (or before your main meals) to stimulate the liver and digestion. Cheap and easy! Vitamins A, C, E and Zinc are specific for skin repair and many of us do become low in Zinc. Nuts and seeds (not peanuts) may be helpful and especially pumpkin seeds which are a good source of Zinc (unless you're into oysters?) as well as green and yellow/orange veg and fruit and dark berries which would also be helpful for you. Increasing water intake is also a cheap and easy way to improve your skin. Good luck :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

TJ21	i wouldnt really suggest it, but a well known (i don't believe it) home rememdy is your urine. Specifically the urine when you first get up in the morning. (people would drink and/or use it on their face.) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
