Hello Nairalanders,
I have always checked this forum since 2010 and i registered sometime last year so that I could enjoy the benefits of being a member of this forum. I went through all the sections and I realized that a lot of us suffer from pimples. I also suffered from pimples, bad big pimples that will stay on your forehead and people will me if i hit my head on a wall. It was like my trademark. My pimple struggles started when I hit puberty and I tried everything to make it disappear. I will go on goggle and search for different ways to get rid of pimples naturally or DIY (Do It Yourself) treatments to get rid of my pimples. I will mix baking soda with water and apply on my face, I will sleep with honey on my face and ants will be crawling on face while i slept. I will wake up, yank the ant off my face and continue sleeping . Plus I had to be extra careful not to get my sheets stained with honey.
Still the pimples refused to go. Then I graduated into pinching the pimples and I was left with scars. Didn't mind the scars that much at least the pimple swelling sort of reduced. I went to the Dermatologist and I was given Antibiotics. It didn't work, I was distraught. I was a self conscious teenager. I though I was going to outgrow it since it was a "teenager's disease". I was in for a surprise, my pimples didn't move an inch. I had periods of clear skin and then the pimples will just come back again with full force. Chai! my village people dey my matter o.

I eventually invested in buying eBooks and paying for pimple program online, it was run by an american and I had to pay in $$$ but I didn't mind as long as it made my pimples disappear for good and my pimples did disappear for good.

The essence of this thread is to enlighten us on some of the little things we can do that can clear our pimples naturally in 6 weeks or less just like i got clear and became pimple free. I will update the thread daily God help me.
Who is with me?

I am following.

You can use honey and coconut oil for clear skin. It is very helpful to remove pimples. Donot use makeup very much.

From first hand experience I can tell you that it didn't work for me and it hasn't worked for most people. I don't use make up. it is too much work for me.

So tell us na. We are eager to here it. And maybe you used fake honey,as you said ants visited you. Ant do no usually disturb real honey.

Good morning
Hope our night was lovely? I know we are all in a hurry to get the information because "this pimples" issue affects almost everyone. The aim of this thread is to allow others with the same skin problem learn about how to get rid of pimples themselves so we will be doing a lot of unlearning and relearning. Let's face it about 80% of the world population have had pimples at one time or the other in their life. With so much people struggling with this issue and the amount of creams/lotions/soaps and even drugs marketed to solve this issue why do we still have it so prevalent? You can give an answer you feel is appropriate but my answer is that cosmetic companies are using "our pain" to make money. Everyday in the world about 5 people visit the dermatologist to get treatment for pimples but it is still the most common skin condition.
There is no miracle product that will cure pimples. If you are still investing your money on creams/lotion/soaps that claim to cure pimples. hmmmm. issokay. Like i said earlier the aim of this thread is to educate fellow "pimple sufferers" so the information will come in bits. I don't want to have a situation where there is information overload because there is so much information to be shared. I beg you please keep an open mind. I will be talking about things that you think are not relevant but scientific evidence shows it is very very important and Doctors don't even acknowledge it.
Let me end on this note
The great Chinese warrior Sun Tzu said:
…if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss. If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

Over the next long posts we will be learning about our enemy and we can deal about it. Come armed with your questions and invite your friends. There is enough "fineness" and clear skin to go around. Please remember that we are clearing our pimples naturally and holistically

Let's start with getting to know our enemy

You’ve probably heard many different things cause pimples. Doctors say it’s caused by bacteria and blockages in skin pores. Many natural health websites say diet and hormones cause pimples.
Truthfully there are different cause pimples but let me break it down like this.
The immediate cause of pimples is Bacterial overgrowth in skin pores, Skin cell overgrowth, Too much sebum, Too much keratin, Inflammation in the skin pores. This is like a cycle. To get pimples your skin is producing too much skin cell, sebum (oil), keratin. Then the bacteria that causes pimples gets into the action and your body will try to protect you through inflammation. Inflammation is the response of the body to injury or foreign bodies. It is a protective mechanism. That is why you find pus in pimples. Your body is trying to protect.
But there are things that set these cascade of events in motion and they can be a combination of factors or just one factor. The factors include Hormonal imbalance, Insulin resistance, Systemic inflammation, Genetics, Improper diet, Too much stress and Gut problems.

So in order to get your pimples under control you have to first get the factors mentioned above under control. You have to ensure that your Gut is in tip-top shape, your hormones are balanced, you are not contributing to inflammation in your body, you are not stressing yourself out, you are eating right among many other things.

My next post will be about knowing your Pimple type. Knowing you Pimple type is very very important. I am sure you have a friend that tried something or a Do it Yourself remedy at home and it got rid of her pimple but you tried that same remedy but it didn't work for you. You will know why it didn't work for you and how to determine your own Pimple type. This information will save you a lot money, stress and heartache because you know exactly what to focus on to clear your pimples.

So eager here as well.

Pimple is a very complicated skin condition and it is treated the same way in western medicine. Once you have pimples and you visit a Doctor be sure that you are coming back home with one or more antibiotics. I have personal reservations about using antibiotics but that is not the topic here. The reason why antibiotics is the first treatment is because it kills bacteria that causes pimples but as you have seen in previous post bacteria is just a small part of the whole pimple equation.
No two pimple types are the same. Let's face it where Mrs A gets her pimples (location on the face) is different from where Miss B gets her own pimples. We can determine pimple types bases on certain characteristics that the pimples exhibit. Yes o, my people Pimples dey exhibit characteristics ;DPimple is a very complicated skin condition and it is treated the same way in western medicine.

Pimple types
1. Hormonal pimples affects women more than men and it is most common among adult fembody. It occurs on the cheeks.
2. Infectious pimples- looks like normal pimples but it is caused by a fungi instead of the bacteria that cause normal pimples.
3. Irritant pimples - caused by irritation. Which could be use of harsh skin care products or friction between body parts or an object e.g friction between your face cap and your head.
4. Inflammatory pimple - caused by inflammation in the body. Inflammation in the body can be causes by gut imbalance, digestion issues, allergy among other things.
5. Emotional/stress Pimple - People with emotional pimple are anxious and stressed because of it and spend a lot of time and money researching and trying different things. Stress and anxiety often aggravate acne, which causes even more stress and anxiety.
6. Mixed type pimple - for some people their pimple is a combination of more than one type.

The way hormonal pimple is treated is different from how emotional pimple is treated and when you treat it the same way you don't get the result that you want. It is like using paracetamol for running stomach. Join me tomorrow as we look at treatment plan for each pimple type.

Good morning
Hope your weekend was restful? OK so let's continue with the treatment plan for the pimple types
1. Hormonal pimple- treatment plan is to balance out the hormones. Get skin care products that don't cause inflammation or irritate the skin. Eat right this part is very very important a client once told me she took hormonal drugs to balance her hormones but the hormonal imbalance returned. This can happen either due to stress or eating hormonal bombs. Yes there are foods that cause hormonal imbalance some you know and some you don't.

2. Inflammatory pimple - treatment plan is to get rid of the inflammation which could be due to gut issues, stress or histamine intolerance. I once had inflammatory pimple and how able to get rid of it by getting rid of histamine intolerance. Sometimes you eat foods that shouldn't cause problems but then your immune system attacks it and the cycle begins. Only a high level of self-awareness, food elimination and diet journal will help you in this regard.

3. Infectious pimple - using an antifungal is the best treatment plan for this pimple type.

4. Emotional/stress pimple - this is treated by using different emotional techniques that helps you appreciate yourself and accept yourself despite your human defects. Also, self love and self care is the best treatment plan.

5. Irritant pimples - getting rid of the object that I'd causing irritation is the best treatment plan for irritant pimples. Sometimes it might be caused by that expensive cream/soap that you are using.

6. Mixed type pimple - depending on the combination just follow the treatment plan for each pimple type.

That is how to get rid of your pimples in 6 weeks or less. Determine your pimple type and follow up with the appropriate treatment plan because you know the weakness of your enemy.

Clear skin is the best foundation

Please this is not a skin care product. It is a self help skin care program that shows you what and when to eat for clear skin. How to choose skin care products that don't cause inflammation or pimples, how to deal with emotional pain caused by pimples, how to stop scarring which is as a result of pimples, how to take care of pimples prone skin, how to use law of attraction to clear your skin among other things.

Good morning
I have been quite busy getting ready for the boot camp. I am back. I have talked about pimple type and how determining your pimple type is the first step in getting clear.
Most people have the mindset that a skin care product maybe a cream or soap will get rid of their pimples. Well except your pimples is infectious or irritant pimples, you are just pumping money down the drain. The only way to be truly free from pimples is to take matters into your own hands. Nobody can take care of you the way you do. Stop putting your health into other people's hands. Most are just out to make money.
For instance if as a lady you have pimples on your cheeks, you most likely have hormonal pimples and only balancing your hormones with the right supplement, right lifestyle and dietary changes can you be totally free from pimples. I have a lady that joined the boot camp and has used hormonal supplements in the past but it worked for a while and stopped and that is because she didn't follow it with the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes.

It is said that doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is INSANITY and doing the same thing the same thing over and over again knowing full the end result is DENIAL.

We have organic products that cure pimples and dark spots

get ursef a medicated soap kasimo or premier cool will do
