ok well you can wash your face alot, tooth paste, clean and clear blackhead removale is really good. but if you dont want to go to the store just keep washing it with soap and water and put tooth paste on it! ]
Some of these I'm sure will sound crazy so I'm including the links I got these from at the bottom.
Fresh apple juice (not from the store) applied to the skin will help any inflammation. Just cut an apple in half and rub the cut side on your face.
Grated cucumber mixed with tomato juice will help clear up any skin eruptions.
Fresh lime juice mixed with a glass of boiled milk is a great natural face wash for pimples, blackheads, etc.
Grated potatoes applied to the skin will help clear up blackheads, pimples, etc.

Soak a tea bag in warm water then apply to blemishes for about 5 minutes to help clear up blemishes.
To shrink enlarged pores, mix 1 egg white with a few drops of lemon juice and apply to face. Leave on for 5 minutes then rinse with warm water.
A soothing eye mask can be made by grating 1/4 of an apple and a small raw potato and combining them. Apply mixture to eyes for 15 minutes and cover with a warm washcloth.
You can make a homemade toner by blending 1 peeled kiwi, 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice, and equal amount of water. Apply to face with a cottonball. Refrigerate any left-over toner in an air-tight container.
For a homemade lip toner, saturate a black tea bag with warm water and press over lips for 5 minutes.
For flaky skin, mix 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves (check the spice rack) and apply to face. Leave on for 15 minutes then rinse well.
To remove redness from a pimple, put a few drops of red-removing eye drops (Visine, etc) on a cotton drop and hold on area for 15 seconds or until redness disappears.
A natural astringent can be made by mixing 10 drops of lemon juice with 1/2 cup cold water.

I have also heard that mixing some oatmeal with warm water and applying to face will help gently exfoliate your skin as well as draw out excess oils.
A cool cucumber slice placed over your eyes for 10 minutes will reduce puffiness. ]
1. get lots of sun- but wear sunscreen- ya dont wanna burn- if you never burn sun can get rid of zits
2. dont use lotion
3. wash face at LEAST twice a day- three if you put on sunscreen in the morning before you do anything in the afternoon
4. DO NOT (i repeat) DO NOT use make up (especially base, CONCELER (however you spell- that is the WORST for acne) although wearing a little mascara or eye liner wont hurt
5. dont change your diet--- that can make your acne come up by the hundreds! (at least for me)
6. if you have any way of getting to a store-- really do try getting acne wash-- it might burn a little for a couple minutes after you use it, but it works like magic
7. try not to stress over this, stress just makes more zits and thats never good!
i hope i helped!!

tooth paste. ]
have the sun shine on your face for a little while. the radiation will burn the top layer of the pimple and dry it up. dont try to overdo it by staying in the sun too long because too much sun radiation can a lot of damage to your skin.
also try to clean your face with water or a cleanser in the morning and night. i kno that what you eat cant affect how many zits you get because I've heard from that many doctors and read that from many websites, but my friend told me that when she stopped eating chips, the number of zits she had reduced dramatically. so maybe you should stop eating a lot of greasy things.
*oh and I kno you should do this, but this helps me a lot. when you get a zit, and when the time is ready, like when you see a white thing in the center, use a toothpick or a pin to pop it. and then apply a spot treatment. but if you cant buy a spot treatment, you can try toothpaste.. i think
hope I helped :) ]
Wash it with warm water and use some sort of astringent. I have heard toothpaste works on zits, but I have never tried it. ]
I have had good luck with putting a little antiperspirant (solid or gel, not aerosol) on each blemish. Swimming in a chlorinated pool can also dry up the skin. Popping isn't too bad, but then you need to keep clean, dry and keep your hands off and your hair pulled back, off your face. Use as little makeup as you can. Don't fuss with your face too much and don't stress! Wash your pillowcase and use a clean washcloth each time you wash. Use a deodorant soap, too; it also dries. Stay away from too much sugary or greasy foods and drink lots of plain water. Good luck! ]
Make sure you keep your face clean and that you don't touch it except when cleaning it. Don't eat sweets or things with a lot of oil. And don't try to pop any zits
If you keep your face moist (facial moisturizer), that will probably help as well. ]
i heard that an egg works...i cant remember if it was the egg yoke or the egg white..but it works. sorry i cant remember which one it is. hope i helped at least a little! ]
Ooooh!! The only home remedy I know of is toothpaste!! Just keep applying it, first it'll make the redness go away..but it should take a few days to get rid of the pimples. Mm, just wash your face with soap and water before you go to bed everynight, and try not to put lots of makeup on. (It clogs pores, causing more pimples to form)
