Using Home Pimple Remedies
One of the best and most practical home pimple remedies is to take a vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) supplement using a dosage of no more than 1 gram a day. Vitamin B5 prevents fat secretions from traveling through your sebaceous glands and makes your pores smaller.
Make sure you consult with your doctor before putting anything inside your body because it’s possible to harm yourself by taking high doses of vitamins. You can get extra vitamin B5 in your diet by eating whole grains, meats, eggs, and several other foods.
One of the quickest home pimple remedies that’s very effective on minor pimple outbreaks is through the use regular toothpaste. Grab a Q-tip, place a little bit of toothpaste on the end, and apply gently on each pimple. Wait till they dry completely, then you’re in the clear to go to sleep. Be careful though! In the morning you may be shocked to find the pimples are disappearing!
Cleaning affected areas with regular oatmeal is also one of the most effective home remedies for pimples, especially on the face. Take a half cup of oatmeal and mix it with warm water in a cup. Rub your face with the oatmeal and water mix softly, then rinse your face with warm water.
Here’s the best of pimple remedies I’ve always counted on; and yes – I saved the best for last. Garlic acts like a topical antibiotic to combat pimples. All you have to do is take a head of garlic and while using a garlic press, put the pressed garlic into a cup. Spread it liberally on your affected areas and leave on for 15 minutes before rinsing.
By using the garlic pimple remedy you just might never have to visit a doctor for an acne problem!

I’d maybe go talk to a Dr about some anti-biotics…
Or a chinese Dr, they have some good theories about causes of acne, like stomach heat, lung heat and an unbalance of yin and yang.
Some natural remedies I personally have found help people…
1- Omega 3 capsules can clear acne altogether in some people (really wd try this)
2- Saw Palmetto – acts as an anti-androgen, androgens are a main cause of acne and male pattern baldness in men, especially the beard area (as you described)
3- Magnetic Therapy is good, you could purchase a magnetic pillow to sleep on, it can really improve you skin, they also do face masks and a wand so you can magnetise your water.
4- Sometimes acne that lasts so long can be a sign that you’re allergic to something you’re eating, so if you feel you break out more after you’ve eaten dairy for example.
Some links for you at the bottom for you to read about… good luck, feel free to email me, acne scarring can only be corrected once the acne has gone and for that vitamin k creams works wonders.

What is the best way to cover up spots?
Foundation is okay to use and may give you more confidence if you’ve got a hot date, but remember to look for oil-free one. Whatever you use to put on your skin, wash your hands or sponge before applying foundation.
Use some rubbing alcohol and apply a VERY small amount on your pimple. And if you’re kinda embarrassed where some of your acne is appearing from, you can disguise it by use a Q-tip or cotton ball and apply it on. Oh and try this! Mix olive oil and salt together and apply it to your face. It really works! I know “oil” but trust me, it works. Don’t use products like Proactive…IT DOES NOT REALLY WORK! Oh and another way to zap pimples is toothpaste and shaving cream! Use toothpaste and apply it to your pimple and cover it up with a band-aid. Shaving cream works too, apply it on and your acne will dry up immediately….but don’t forget to wash your face even though it’s gone. Dab garlic juice on your face. It works too, and tries smashing an aspirin tablet and mixes some lemon juice with it and applies to your face daily. Don’t stress out and try to keep your hands and hair away from your face! I hope it helped how it helped me!
