I heard from a friend that toothpaste helps clear acne. Is this true?
Also, what are some other home remedies for clearing acne?
Thanks!

I have cystic acne, and my doctor told me that I should definitely try Accutane. The only issue is that my insurance doesn’t cover it and it would cost over $1000 a month. I’ve been using the Murad acne process and that’s been working well for me, but that doesn’t work for the cystic acne under the skin, only the blemishes on the top layer. Are there any other medications or products that have worked on cystic acne that you know of? Thank you times ten in advance.

Well, I was thinking about putting lemon juice on my forehead to clear up my acne. I’ve heard it works, but I’m scared it’ll dry up my sin like toothpaste did! (I used WAY too much, but still..) Are you supposed to put it all over your face, or just a little bit on the zits? Does it make your face flaky, discolored, and what do I do if it does?? As you can see I’m kindof nervous about trying it, but I really want to.
Something extra: A few tips & home remedies for acne I’ve found over my teen years that have worked!
*Potatoe slices (Just used them today! Work great!)
*Visine red eye drops to take down swelling/redness
*Oil absorbing sheets
*Ice to take down painful swelling
*Toothpaste
*Egg whites
*The product AcneFree…I’m almost sure it’s the afforable remake of ProActive, and so did the store manager. I use the “Severe Acne” which comes in and orange bottled set. After about a year of searching, this product did it!

I am currently using a acne product and on the back is says that it may bleach your hair or eyebrows and other stuff. How does it bleach your skin and hair? Does it bleach it when you don’t wash it off completely or is it another reason?
Thanks
