How to treat mild acne?

I have a normal complexion (some oil on my T-zone, but not much), and I get lots of whiteheads on my forehead. I also have tons of blackheads on top and on the sides of my nose. I usually have 2-4 pimples on my forehead at a time.

Mild acne can be treated with over-the-counter products





# Wash twice daily (in the morning and before bed) with a facial cleanser containing salicylic acid, which helps clear the pores. Or, use a cleanser with triclosan, which combats acne bacteria.





# After washing your face, apply a gel containing salicylic acid to your entire face. Let dry.





# Dot on benzoyl peroxide cream only on any current blemishes. Use the 2.5 percent cream. It works just as well as the 5 and 10 percent creams but will not be as drying.





# Apply a light, oil-free moisturizer, possibly one containing sunscreen. Or, apply sunscreen following the moisturizer. Look for a sensitive-skin formula or one with zinc oxide to avoid irritating the acne.





# Once a week, use a clay mask, which helps draw out impurities and dry up acne blemishes.How to treat mild acne?
i used to have a huge acne problem when i was in college. it got really bad during times of stress, like around exam times. i found that the major reason for my breakouts was stress and poor nutrition.





the best thing you can do to prevent acne, is to drink lots and lots of water. tap water is the best. it detoxifies your system. fruits also help a lot; especially citrus fruits.





don't go for soaps or cleansing agents that claim to get rid of your acne. they just dry up your skin. excess oils may cause acne but your skin still needs the oils. don't over wash either for the same reason.





i tried a lot of products from the internet because i was desperate for an acne-free face, since i was in college. the girls just didn't dig it. nothing worked as well and as fast as Acnezine.


here's the link to their site
