    Drink looooooads of water and get plenty of sleep. Going in a sauna everynow and then to sweat out all the bad stuff is good for you too. Oh yeah and maintain a healthy diet!

    use common sense. avoid takeaways and other fatty nasty foods. also eat plenty of fruit n veg. and drink lots of water. spots don't always come because of your diet, it can be because of hormones but your diet and lifestyle will be a contributing factor. also make sure you wash properly!

    Whether you shower or not, wash morning and night. Hot water and your choice of facial soap. Astrengent afterwards. Lotion after that. And always drink water. I've never found food to have an effect on my complexion. I eat crap and my face is always clear.

    me too tbh, i think having spots is just something thats in our genes, i've never really had a problem with them personally but i know people who are exactly like yourself and trying every which way possible to get rid of them. Just have to wait till after puberty i'm affraid!

    I agree!

    Though I know people well into their 30s that still have acne problems. There are now tons of products that work on both your acne and wrinkles :p

    I find diet doesn't really affect my complextion but stress makes my skin go haywire...so try to avoid stress to keep your complexion looking nice!
