Every one, at some stage of the life, has to experience pimples and acne. If everybody gets it, it can't be a disease as such!

Acne is such a universal spread, it invites universal discussions. For, majority think that washing face a number of times in a day is the fitting answer to acne. This is a clear cut example, how the majority opinion can go wrong. Overdo the wash, and you cause more damage to your face. Soaps irritate the skin to the bottom, the roots of the hair, and in case the quality of the soap you use is substandard you are inviting more troubles.
So, when you have pimples, restrict the number of face washes to two. How do you wash the face? Be kind, it is your face, and it deserves a quality cleanser instead of hard soaps.

You need to take extra care about your cleanliness as well. There is no doubt about the fact that a spread of bacteria is the cause of acne and pimples. Therefore, take care about the basic conditions that support the spread of acne. Wash your hair properly, if you have long hair.
