Hey there! Can anyone help me?

I am a girl and you can understand it very well that how much it matters for me to have a clear skin. I drink appropriate amount of water and eat healthy food. Moreover I clean my face daily before going to sleep. I have a dry skin but never let it dry. Even then I am not able to get rid of white heads and acne.

Please suggest home remedies only.

Thanks

I had very acne prone skin and could only keep it clear by slathering on benzoyl peroxide every night...that is until I gave up eating dairy. I have found any milk products (butter, milk, cheese, yogurt, etc.) will make me break out within a day or two of eating it. I came upon this discovery after doing what is called an "elimination diet" with my allergist looking for food allergies/intolerances. After doing some research, it seems the dairy-acne link is not uncommon. To do a true test, you would have to eliminate dairy for three weeks to see if there are any changes. It won't cost anything, so it is worth a shot.

You say that you already eat healthy and drink plenty of water. How about a raw vegan lifestyle?

Raw vegan lifestyle...Skin will GLOW and blemishes will be a thing of the past

Steam your face or put a hot washcloth over the area with the whiteheads. The heat will open up the pores and melt the sebum.

How often are you changing/washing your sheets and pillow cases? You should be doing so weekly otherwise that could be contributing to the problem.

Stay away from greasy fast food as much as possible: Burgers, tacos, fries, potato chips. When my son eats too much of it, his face breaks out.

Wipe down your cell phone often w antibacterial wipes or something like it. I prefer rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad.
