    pimples are caused by blocked pores. Inside the pores are body oils and dirt from the atmosphere. Keeping your face clean helps, but some people are natural oil producers, so each night, if you get a hot (not too hot) wet face washer and place it on your face for a little while, then wash with a mix of fine ground oatmeal and water (perhaps a little lavender oil added for clearing infections), then rinse with cold water, this should help. Avoid deep fried foods and takeaway (some is okay but most of us eat way too much) ,keat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, and, above all, drink 1-2 litres of water a day.

    Wash your face three times a day with White Dial soap. After each washing wipe your face with a cotton pad saturated with witch hazel. For the times you may not be able to wash your face during the middle of the day take witch hazel pads with you and wipe your face and then wash with White Dial when you get back home. This is inexpensive and easy and worked great with my children. Also, lay off the fatty foods.

    Likely different people have different triggers for acne. Balanced, high fiber diets supposedly help.

    www.acne.org has a regimen that may people say works well.

    If you have serious problems, see a dermatologist.

    Yes, yes. Sleep definetly helps. For some time I've been only getting 6-7 hours of sleep and I exploded with pimples. Then I started sleeping early and getting 8-10 hours of sleep and the next couple of nights, about 60% of it was gone! Products that may be good : Clearisil Benzoyl Perioxide Cream/Pimple blocker pen/Vanishing cream. OR Neutrogena Oil free pink grapefruit Acne wash, Neutrog. Rapid Clear spot gel for acne prone skin (results in 8 hours), or Neutrog. Acne scrub stuff.
    Personally, I love Neutrogena! Visit the acne section on its website : http://neutrogena.ca/en/products.asp?cat=1&sub=13&display=1

    One of the possible causes would be the soap you are using. Try milder soaps like dove. ( http://www.dove.ph )

    Another cause would be stress. Get enough sleep.
