I don't want anything but your happiness, so try reading through my answer.





None of these home remedies and treatments will work. You can try buying any of it, but it will not work. Because pimple is a natural thing on your skin. You, ME and some other unfortunate people have skin that is prone to pimples. Now, there is no way you can 100% avoid them, but there are a few things that you can do.





#1 Stop using makeup (any foundation, face powder, blush), only use in extreme occasions





#2 Wash your face with johnson baby soap once a day (NO MORE THAN THAT).





#3 Whenever your face gets oily, splash tap warm water and wipe off with a clean dry napkin / towel.





#4 Do not pop pimples.





#5 Have patience, the marks will eventually go away.
i think i would depend on the type of skin you have. oil itself doesn't cause zits. hormones cause the natural oil from your skin to get sticky, and that mixed with dead skin sells blocks the opening to your pores. then over time blocked pores get infected and that's when pimples get red and puffy.


sorry for being gross!! : )





but anyway, so when people use harsh, drying soaps on there face, there skin freaks out and over produces oil. and that gives you more of a chance of getting zits.





so anyway i think its possible!!


sorry again for being gross! : )


hope this helps.
If your boyfriend and his father come at you with a jar of creamy peanut butter... run away fast!
Honey, I heard that it causes it!
