We can define a pimple as a tiny little infection in the skin pores a disorder resulting from the action of hormones and other substances on the skin’s oil glands and hair follicles. Pimples are small, hard, red eminences of the skin, rising gradually and then disappearing after light suppuration. A pimple begins to form when cells clump together causing a plug. Then the excess oil being produced starts to build up behind the plug.
WHAT CAUSES PIMPLES:
- Increase production in hormones “androgens”
- Pregnancy

- Changing hormone levels

Pimples can affect everyone, no matter races or ages. Around 60 percent of the teenagers get pimples but some people in their forties or fifties continue to have outbreaks.
HOW TO TREAT PIMPLES:
The best way to treat pimples is to follow a strict skincare regime every day.
Cleansing your face two/ three times a day with appropriate for your skin type products is crucial. There are many specialized acne cleansers, astringents, exfoliators and creams containing benzyl peroxide, salicylic acid, glycolic acid and glycerin that cleanse your skin in deep and “dry out” the pimples. Benzyl peroxide is a mild drying and peeling agent which is thought to help keep pores from clogging. Some products on the market can potentially be both drying and irritating to your skin.
Avoid using drying products containing harsh products because they can increase your likelihood of experiencing skin irritation. Nowadays there is a wide range of different cleansers for every skin type, from normal to sensitive.
The main purpose of the facial cleanser is to gently clean your skin without irritating it.
It’s crucial to select a cleanser that is appropriate for your skin type. If your skin is oily or combination it must be stronger, more drying containing oil-absorbing ingredients.
Remember overzealous cleansing of the skin can lead to irritation of both normal skin and acne lesions.
If you have pimples it’s essential to use a toner. I recommend you to choose a toner containing alcohol. A tonic containing alcohol will dry the pimples but use it carefully. Use specially designed tonics and lotion for oily and acne prone skin. 
The lotions and the tonics speed up skin cell turnover, dry up the oils and promote sloughing of dead skin cells. Before applying , gently wash the affected area with a mild cleanser, then pat dry. Apply to the affected areas of the face or to the whole face
Always remove your makeup in the evening and apply pimple-fighting medicine to remove all the impurities, oils and makeup residue. Not removing the makeup at night is the biggest deadly sin of skincare. It can be very damaging to your skin?
the makeup clog your pores and breakouts may occur more frequent and most importantly your skin won’t be able to breathe.
Most of the people prefer to squeeze or pick at a pimple because they think that it is the best way to get rid of pimples. I don’t recommend you to do that? squeezing a pimple causes the pimple to become inflamed. When squeezing a pimple you can easily spread the bacteria to other parts of your face. In more than 75 percent of the cases squeezing leads to scars. Squeezing pimples sometimes may even leave open holes on your face, that are very difficult to remove later.
Make sure that all of your skincare products and makeup cosmetics are noncomedogenic and nonacnegenic which means that they won’t clog your pores, cause breakouts and pimples
