Here's How You Can Join the Ranks of Pimple Free People
WASH using an oil-free cleanser and your bare hands (washcloths and sponges damage your skin), in the morning, after exercise and before bed no matter how tired you are.
LAUNDER your sheets frequently - don't lay that freshly washed face on a less than fresh pillowcase!
WATER is essential to clear skin. You've heard it before, but here we go again: Drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
EAT HEALTHY FOODS. They are just as important to skin health as they are to overall health. Fruits and vegetables provide vitamins and minerals; fish are full of essential oils; avoid junk foods. Research does not support the common myth that chocolates cause break-outs, but too much of any junk food is detrimental to your well-being, and is therefore bad for your skin.
SLEEP when you're tired. Sleep, and its counterpart, relaxation, are necessities, not luxuries. Physical exhaustion and stress are enemies of a clear complexion.
BABY your skin. Don't pick at pimples. Avoid touching your face unnecessarily - the oil on your fingertips belongs on your fingertips, not on your face. Moisturize and use sunscreen with at least a 15SPF every day all year long.

That's true. Chocolate is my favorite and I don't see any bad effects it does on skin. Thanks.

I also tried Olay. I tried the milder Olay Total Effects, the gentle formula but I'm not really satisfied with the result on blemishes, it's quite slow but I like the smell and it's SPF.

Good question. I have problem skin and its hard to find a great regimen. I use a product I found online to help control my pimples, but I still get a few but not as many. Blemishes will fade away with time. I would also like to try some natural products. I will keep an eye on this discussion to see what others say.

Oh very nice suggestion. I tried milk and lemon but turmeric? I better try that. Lemon, cinnamon, olive oil and brown sugar was suggested by my friend's dermatologist. Amazingly, it worked to remove her pimples. So this is what I'm using now.
