Acne Help!!?
I take a prescription for my acne and I left it at home and the nights that I don't put it on it seems to make my acne worse. Does anyone have any NICE suggestion as to what I can put on my face that I would have around my house that is just for 1 night?
Thanks so much

Hi CSIDude
Here are a few testimonials on how to heal the issue.
EUCALYPTUS OIL
11/24/2007: Vinny (highbury21@gmail.com) from Atlanta, GA writes: "A quick, cheap, & healthy way to prevent and heal acne is to use Eucalyptus Aromatherapy Oil. A big bottle is about $8-9 and can be found at GNC. Make sure you dilute it with water as it is very potent like other oils. You should have very good success with this and should notice HUGE differences within a day."
APPLE CIDER Vinegar AND ALOE VERA FOR ACNE
10/04/2007: Martha from Lawrenceville, GA writes: "I've always had trouble with acne -- I could never get my skin completely under control. ACV helped -- taking it internally -- but I still broke out in a monthly cycle. I started using aloe vera gel on my face a few weeks ago, and my skin has cleared up dramatically. I've not had one breakout, and my skin is getting to be so pretty! I just use a generic aloe vera gel that I picked up in WalMart."
COCONUT OIL AND ALOE VERA FOR ACNE
10/03/2007: Jennifer from Kirkland, Washington writes: "I have been using a mixture of coconut oil and aloe vera gel (4:1 ratio) on my face for my acne for only 2 weeks and it has almost completely cleared it up. I have had moderate to severe acne since I was 13 (I am now 37), and have tried everything under the sun to diminish it. Some things have helped more than others, but this is the first time my skin has felt so good and looked so good in almost 25 years
Best of health to you

well toothpaste would work to dry them out just put a little on the pimple enought to cover it and try washing your face often atleast once a day with soap but it preferable 3 times in the morning when you wake up because your pores are open and also in the shower and in the night

rubbing alcohol it may dry ur skin a little, but it works wonders. use it like a cleanser but leave it on for a minute or two, then rinse. i even use it a couple times a week!

whatever you do DONT use toothpaste!
some people think it helps, but no. its meant for your teeth. not for your face.
