What are some quick easy cheap ways to get rid of acne scars and blackheads? And a few pimples here and there! Thanks so much :)I don't have really bad acne- it's just the scars and blackheads!?
Try something like Proactiv. A great idea is a facial. You can take 3 avocados and scoop out the stuff inside and discard the pit. Put a squirt of lotion (any kind) and mix with a whisk. Sometimes you may want to put a hint of citrus (with a lemon being most recommended). But not to much or else it will get sticky and not good for your skin. Aloe works too. You can use like a butter kind of lotion and apply to acne. Sometimes it can come from the sun if you live in a hot, hot place like florida. Just make sure you put sunscreen on if you live where it gets hot and maybe you'll get smoother skin with no acne. Sometimes rubbing honey on will get them gone. Just make sure you leave this mask of honey on for like say about 30 minutes or 45 minutes. A doctor/dermatologist is always good to go too. Try nose strips for black heads also. If you like the idea of a facial here are a few recipes. Honey Facial * (warning - do not use this if you are allergic to eggs!)
1 tablespoon honey
1 egg yoke
1 teaspoon olive oil
Beat the egg yoke with a fork, add the oil and blend well. Add the honey using a spoon that you have rinsed with hot water and blend well again. Smear it all over your face with your fingers, except do not cover your eyes. Leave it on your face for 15 minutes, then rinse it off.
Cucumber Facial
1 cucumber
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon witch hazel (you can buy this in any drug store)
1 egg white, beaten with an electric beater until fluffy.
Peel the cucumber and run it through a blender or a food processor. Pour the cucumber pulp into a colander or strainer and force it through, catching the liquid that comes out in a bowl underneath. Combine the cucumber liquid with the lemon juice and the witch hazel. Stir it and add the beaten egg white gently. Put it on your face and leave it on for 15 to 25 minutes, then rinse off.
Refreshing Fruit Facials
PEACH TIGHTENING MASK
1 Peach, ripe, peeled, pitted
1 Egg white
Whip the peach and egg white together in a blender until smooth. Gently pat the mixture all over your face. Relax for 30 minutes, then rinse it off with cool water.
APPLE MASK FOR NORMAL SKIN
1 Apple, cored %26amp; quartered
2 T Honey
Drop the apple pieces into a food processor and chop. Add honey and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Pat the mixture onto your face with a light tapping motion, tapping until the honey feels tacky. Leave it on for 30 minutes and then rinse.
CUCUMBER MASK FOR OILY SKIN
1/2 Cucumber
1 Egg white
1 T Lemon juice
1 tsp mint
Puree everything and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Apply the mixture to your face and leave it on for 15 minutes. Rinse with warm, then cool water.
STRAWBERRY DRAWING MASK
1/2 c Strawberries, very ripe
1/4 c Cornstarch
Mix strawberries and cornstarch together to make a paste and apply it to your face, avoiding the delicate area around your eyes. Leave it on for 30 minutes and then rinse it off with cool water.
CITRUS FRESHNER
2 cups boiling water
1 vitamin C (a preservative)
Lemon peel (zest) from 2 lemons
Dissolve the vitamin in water. In a glass bowl put the lemon zest and pour the water over them. Let it sit over night. Remove the zest and put in a spray bottle. You can use any type of citrus peel.
BLEMISHED SKIN MASK
1 Tomato, ripe, chopped
1 tsp Lemon juice
1 T Instant style oatmeal or old-fashioned rolled oats
Blend everything until just combined. Apply to skin, making sure the mixture is thick enough to stay on blemished areas: cheeks, forehead, or chin. If necessary, add a bit more oatmeal to thicken the mask. Leave it on for 10 minutes, then scrub it off with a clean washcloth dipped in warm water.

Biore warming anti-blackhead cream cleanser works really great also. There are lazer treatments if it is that bad. Make sure you do not pop or pick them unless you want skin damage. If the nature of your scars is mild to moderate, then home remedies are sufficient. There are many lotions based on alpha hydroxyl acid and retinol. These lotions are very effective for the treatment of the acne scars. it also depends on the type of your skin. If you have a sensitive skin type, it will be better not to use lotions based on the above ingredients. They can harm sensitive skin. Also, try lemon juice.
To use the lemon juice treatment to remove your acne scar you will need to first wash your face with warm water. Then pour some lemon juice on a cotton ball, and then gently rub the effected acne mark area. For best results leave the lemon juice on your face for about 10 minutes and then dry the affected acne scar area. To start seeing results with the lemon juice it can take anywhere from one day and even up to three months. Results will vary depending on the seriousness of the acne problem. If you have heard rumors that eating candy and oils cause pimples and acne I think it's true. So you may want to go on a diet without any oils or candies. By avoiding the use of vegetable oils in your cooking, it has been reported that it can be one of the leading factors in clearing up your acne by 50%. Even in sever cases it has been said that that people who stopped using such vegetable oils, have been completely relieved of any future acne outbreaks. Believe it or not by drinking more than the recommended 8 glasses of water daily will immediately begin to see results with getting rid of your acne scars. If you are a severe acne suffer you should stay away from carbonated drinks, and caffeine drinks such as coffee, and sodas.Though the best way to remove blackheads is an area of contention, the most common method for getting rid of blackheads is to gently squeeze them. Removing the “stuff” inside of the blackhead helps the skin because you are relieving the pressure which causes the damage. We know it can be nearly impossible to leave a blemish alone so here are some tips for gentle blackhead removal:
Step 1:Use a mild scrub or exfoliant to remove any dead cells and expose the blackhead.
Step 2:Pat your face dry.
Step 3:Place a slightly warm compress on your face for approximately 10-15 minutes in order to soften the blackhead, making it easier to remove.
Step 4:Pat your face dry again.
Step 5:Place a piece of tissue on the tip of each finger to avoid slipping, which could tear the skin and cause further damage.
Step 6:Gently apply even pressure to both sides of the blackhead by pushing down, then up around the blemish. You’re trying to apply the pressure from *underneath* the blackhead.
Only attempt this once or twice. If it does not “pop”, you may bruise the skin, make the blackhead worse, and could cause scarring.
If you want to get rid of blackheads you're going to stop using oil-based makeup and skin treatments. I hope I helped and your acne goes away. Good luck!!I don't have really bad acne- it's just the scars and blackheads!?
toothpaste on the spot..overight..for acne

Biore warming anti-blackhead cream cleanser is pretty good!
but you should always go to the dermatologist

buy queen helene's mint julep masque from walgreens. its about $3-4 and works really well at getting rid of blackheads, tightening pores and shrinking pimples.
to get rid of blackheads- wash face with hot water, then---while your pores are still open from hot water---apply mint julep masque.
for acne/acne scars-- the home remedy i've found that works the quickest and with great results is egg yolk. spread across the acne scars and leave on until they dry [about 15-20 min]. then wash off. for best results, apply 2-3 times a day for 2 weeks. after one week, you should see significant results. even after one day youll see results. i saw more results using egg yolk in reducing redness than when using aloe vera.
egg whites can be used as a mask too
to tighten pores and dry up pimples.
also, theres a multivitamin at target.
this is a REALLY important way to get rid of acne for good.
its the generic brand of women's ';one a day';. i thnk its $10 or around there but trust me, its well worth the money. it contains zinc, vitamin a, c and e, as well as b vitamins. these are ALL good for acne and regeneration of skin cells [helps acne scars get erased]. you need this!
try lemon juice on the scars to lighten them
or coco butter
or bio oil
or aloe
try the clay strips you put on your nose and pull of for blackheads
alone with a blackhead eliminating scrub
they usually have a couple stuff
like that in the stores.
like nose strips for blackheads.
i use them sometimes.
i also use St. Ives Apricot scrub
for acne and blackheads. it refreshes your
skin and makes it feel renewed :]
HOPE I HELPED.
