Nobody knows the real cause if we did there could be a cure.
But over productive hormones - oil glands on your face. During Puberty most especially 12-18 for some or older.
Some people get adult acne -
Bad hygiene -
The + is to get in to a regime of washing, toner and acne spot treatments - twice a day without fail - being lazy with this will not fight acne you must put up a good fight.
Some people must see an MD for harsher medication.
Acne Free, Proactive work for some but it's up to you and your face to say what works best -
Lots of rest, water, and you are what you eat kind of applies so eat well (veggies, fruits, protein) lots of vitamin a e and c and zinc help.
Diet, oil, and most of all dirt. Keep your face clean and use stridex pads to remove the dirt, and oil.
I think mainly oily skin.
Eating alot of junk food, oily, fatty food
Stress is a major cause of acne.
Dirt on the skin causes pimples.
Dry skin is more prone to acne development.
Use of cosmetic make-up leads to acne.
i was going to ask a similar question. i know that it's from oil and dirt on your face and certain fatty foods. i can't eat chocolates otherwise i spots which isn't much fun cause when it's your birthday everyone tends to give you chocolates. and i heard tomato sauce gives you spots and mayonnaise. only if you eat it alot.
pimples are dirt and oil under the skin creating puss
wash your face twice daily and dont eat greasy foods or chochlate

Last I heard...eating sweets/junk food as a cause of pimples was debunked.
The proven causes I know of are oily skin, clogged pores (from oil & dirt), ingrown hairs, and hormones.
For treatment...if you're lucky, soap & water and you'll avoid most of them. I did. :D
If you're NOT lucky, you're looking for medically prescribed topical treatments.
Then there is the old pop 'em or not... Popping them can cause serious problems as you introduce things you don't want in the blood stream, into it. Add in the fact that you will also irritate the area around the pimple.
The flip side is that it's gone - and if it's not a huge zit, it's over and done with. Plus, alot of men, first thing in the morning, end-up cutting them off when shaving. If it is a huge thing, you now have a band-aid on your face, since it is going to seep blood/serum for a couple of hours, then it crusts over and you have *that* to deal with for the next week. :(
Generally, pimples can't be "cured," but they can be treated. For non-prescription treatments, you have the earlier mentioned Stridex pads, you have home made or commercial tinctures with witch hazel in them, any one of a score or more cremes/ointments/pastes/etc specifically formulated for treating them...then there is toothpaste - one brand, and I can't remember which, is supposed to treat zits. Essentially, the treatment of acne is to "dry" them out...the astringent ingredients cause the "guck" causing the pimple to form to be expelled from the skin (possibly due to the astringent causing the pores to open wider).
In any case...you won't know what will treat your skin best until you try 'em.
Good luck!
dirt does not cause acne. diet is HUGELY responsible. what you put in your mouth affects your entire ody, including hormones. its been proven that too much processed, refined food raises your insulin levels (i.e stress) and can contribute to too much oil clogging production. natural oil however, does not cause pimples. most products out there contain minerla oil which does cause zits since its just crude oil. but a vegetable oil or any plant based oil does not in any way contribute to acne. they heal the skin and help restore balance in your body. I found that by eating more good fatty foods (i.e nuts, seeds, flax seed, fish) drinking lots of water my skin clears quickly. Chlorophyll also helps. not only is it natural, it clears your entire system; no longer do I have bad morning breath, B.O or pimples, becuase it purifies the blood. when the blood becomes blocked (becuase of bad food or too many artificial things in the body) toxins go back into the blood stream and exit throughout the skin, usually in the form of pimples.....so anything that cleans your system will also get rid of acne. theres still so much to learn..
