Wash your face twice a day if your acne is just starting out. For the advanced stage acne, use pumpkin mask for your face. You can apply this on your face every other day for twenty minutes. You can then remove it with warm water.

Garlic also works fine for large, red pimples. Just slice some garlic and rub it on the zit. The next day, you’ll find the pimple decreasing.

Look for the ingredient salicylic acid in your cleansers. Aside from the ingredient, you’ll find that there is no absolute acne remedy for everyone. Medications for acne are strictly taken under prescription. Of course, home remedies for acne scars are also available much like commercial ones.

Still, try to remember what was said earlier. Stick to one method first before judging the effectivity of a treatment. When using commercial products, test it out on your skin first for allergy.
