Answers:
Typically acne scars fade after a few years (take it from somebody who knows)!. If you want them to fade faster, you'll need some extra-strength topical scar medication!.

Mederma is a clear topical gel that you can use on any type of scar, even acne scars!. It's expensive, but you can buy it in almost any drugstore (even Wal-Mart)!.

Keep in mind your scars will fade on their own eventually, but over a long period of time!. The Mederma will speed up the process, but it sometimes can take more than 6 weeks of daily applications!.

In the meantime, try cover-up!. Find a cover-up that is one shade lighter than your skin and use it OVER your foundation!. I recommend cream cover-ups -- liquids are too messy and can smear!. Check out the links for both Mederma and some good cover-ups:

1!. Leave your pimples alone!. Do not pop a pimple or scratch it, this will cause the scars!. Instead, leave them alone, and you will reduce scarring to your face!.
2!. Keep your face clean!. Wash your face with a facewash twice a day and apply moisturizer!.
3!. Wash your face with a facewash or scrub, at night with warm water, then splash with cold water to close your pores!.
4!. Pour a small amount of tissue oil (try using one with natural ingredients in it) on a piece of cotton wool!. (You can also put the tissue oil on your hands, but make sure they are clean!.)
5!. Apply the tissue oil to your face, applying it equally to each part of your face!.Massage it in for 5 minutes, and then leave it until you go to bed!.
6!. Before getting into bed, take a tissue, and dab your face to remove the oil
