I am 20 yrs old and I used to have an acne problem as well. It was pretty big but then I did homeopathy and now its all gone now except that I have a few scars from scratching. My skin is also a bit dry sometimes. So anyways this is what I do to mantain a clean face and my pimples have never come back ever since:1)Wake up in the morning :-O2)Wash your face with very warm water (not hot, dont wanna burn ur face!!) for 2-3 minutes. What this does is open up the pores.3)Use a non-fragrance face cleanser (I use neutrogena, its a fluidy paste). Apply cleanser all over your wet face (cheeks, nose, forehead, temple, upper neck, chin). Wait for like a minute for it to absorb.4)Now use warm water to rinse the cleanser off your face. No more cleanser should be left on the face. So now your pores have opened up, the cleanser has taken the dirt, and you have washed the cleanser away.5)Wait like 30 seconds and now wash your face with cold water. Now the pores have closed and your face is clean for the day.6) Use some face cream which will make your face look healthy. (I personally like nivea, expensive but good).** If you are advanced in your acne take homeopathy the best treatment ever. Personally I dont trust those acne treatments in the market. All they do is mask your problem while homeopathy cures it. AND never use soap on your face, only cleansers.Good Luck
