Ok this is for people with oily skin only!
Have you tried, acne product after acne product and nothing works, well this used to be me, until I tried rubbing alcohol. I know this may sound silly but if you have oily skin this may work for you,
Take a cotton ball or bath tissue and apply rubbing alcohol to it, You will see dirt and oil come off your face and may need to use 2 cotton balls or bath tissues to make sure the dirt and oil came off completely.
do this as follows:
Once in the morning
once in the afternoon
once before bedtime
Dont do this more than 3 times a day if you do it will cause your skin to dry. Please only do this if you have oily skin, After doing this for 3 to 4 days you should know if it is working for you.
Before you ask:
Yes I do this myself.
yes it works.
No it isnt painful, some stinging may happen if you picked at your face before applying the rubbing alchol.
If you have other questions please ask I am just trying to help people that have oily skin and never seem to be able to get rid of the bumps.

Another thing to try is taking an Advil just when a pimple starts growing. I blew this whole theory off until last weekend, after whining about getting one and mom forcing a bottle of advil on me. It actually worked, I was shocked lol.

I do the same thing, but never on my face.
I do it on my chest and back and neck and your so right it does work, but you have to keep on it and keep it a rountine...which can be the hard part.

I used to do this regularly in my teens...until the pores on my cheeks started to open and it just messed up my complexion. I fixed the problem after years of trying to repair the damage but I do not recommend this at all !!! A very good cleansing solution are the Almay products with MEADOWSWEET. I've seen improvement in my face and my makeup lasts longer. Please stop using this method before you damage your complexion. Just an advice from someone who's been there. Take care!!!

i hope you dont mind me saying but this will destroy your skin , it will leave it tight and dry which may feel nice to start with but it leaves you skin with no moisture and you will wrinkle more easily. oily skin (i have it )may be a bit of a pain but you will have a younger complexion due to the excess oil you produce . dry taut skin shows wrinkles very fast . try only using moisturiser on the areas which are not oily. ley your T zone lubricate itself. or invest in a moisturiser for oily skin and use it for going out at night or at times when you dont want to shine.there are also good foundations which leave a nice matt finish and no oiliness.
