Acne, or pimples, is a common skin condition caused by inflammation of the hair follicles and oil glands in the skin. Here are a few things you can do to help treat and prevent pimples:

• Cleanse your face twice a day with a gentle, non-abrasive cleanser. Avoid using harsh soaps or scrubs, which can irritate the skin and make acne worse.

• Apply a water-based, non-comedogenic moisturizer to your face to keep your skin hydrated.

• Avoid picking or squeezing pimples, as this can lead to scarring and further inflammation.

• Apply over-the-counter (OTC) acne creams or gels, such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, to the affected areas. These medications can help to unclog pores and reduce inflammation.

• If your acne is moderate to severe, your doctor may prescribe topical or oral medications such as antibiotics, retinoids, or hormonal treatments.

• Try to maintain a healthy diet, low in processed foods and added sugars, it can also help to reduce acne.

• Manage stress, as stress can make acne worse.

It's important to keep in mind that everyone's skin is different and what works for one person may not work for another. If OTC treatments do not work, it's best to consult with a dermatologist for personalized treatment plan.

Also, if you are using a product and your skin is getting worse, please stop using it and consult a professional before using any new product.
