I've been struggling with acne for the past few years since I was about 14. I'm 18 now and it's never been bad enough to properly scar but has always made me self-conscious of my appearance. Anyone got any advice to get rid of those last 1-3 pimples I get a week?
I heard tea tree oil is good for it. Try making an egg white mud mask, with lemon juice, then do that.

Make sure to water the tea tree oil down, apparently you can make the acne worse if it dries out your skin.
I don't have acne, I just try to use natural stuff for skin care.

two drops of tea tree oil + in jojoba oil.
Make sure you clean your face properly with a delicate soap and moisturise.
Change your pillow cases, too.

Eat your vegs.
Exercise.
Don't touch your face.
Switch pillow case daily.
Avoid dairy.
Reduce stress.
If your acne is not severe, be careful when trying stronger skin care products. Like tea tree oil.

Grow up.
I mean that simply and literally.
90% of acne is the result of the hormonal changes of adolescence screwing up your body chemistry and generated lots of oil and sebum. (No more than 10% has to do with diet or cleanliness).
Sooner or later your body chemistry will settle down and the acne will stop.

Go to a fucking dermatologist.
He will give you some Benzoyl peroxide.
If Benzoyl peroxide doesn't work he will prescribe you antibiotics.
If antibiotics don't work he will prescribe you isotretinoin (roaccutane).
And isotretinoin always works.
But sometimes (in like 5% of the case) acne reappears after end of treatment and you're fucked. You have to do another cure.
tip : i'm a guy who had 3 roaccutane cures because of high testosterone and skin problem.
