Wash your face early in the morning, afternoon and in the evening. Use a reliable facial cleanser. You should not tou ch or pinch the pimple at all. If you do this, the pimple will get infected with ba cteria or you may leave a scar on your skin. Besides skin care, you must make sure you follow a healthy diet. Take plenty of fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water and avoid fried or oily f ood. One more thing to remember is to avoid the hot sun. I hope this e-mail helps you with your problem.
