If your friend has never had acne before, this acne outbreak is probably stress related. Getting married does make acne prone skin suseptable to outbreaks. I do not think there is much she can do apart from following a healthy diet, cleansing her skin with appropriate products (not more then twice a day because overwashing will strip off the natural oils and it will compensate by producing more oils), and trying not to pick at any of the pimples.

first of all i dont know what has retinoic acid to do with getting married! maybe you can enlighten me!
if an alternative has to be taken recourse to, there are several herbal treatments available in the market. regular repeated facials done can also cure yr friend of her problem.
hope she gets a nice clean face for her wedding!
