Lemon – Lemon is very harsh on your skin because of the high acid content so do not overuse it or it may make your skin dry. This is a great treatment for severe acne however. Fresh lemon juice works best. Just apply the juice over the area and let it sit for fifteen minutes before rinsing off. You can apply the honey directly after for a one two punch to those pimples! Do not use more than twice a week for best results.
Towel –
Yes, you read that right. A towel. The best way to reduce breakouts and help current acne issues is to sleep with a freshly washed towel covering your pillow. The towel will help to absorb oils during the night and keep your face free of dirt and bacteria that could be present on your pillows. Be sure to wash your face well before lying down, try not to touch your face, and if you can do not put any moisturizer or other products on your face before you go to sleep. That way your pores have a chance to breathe and the towel can absorb the natural oils without impediment. Be sure to get a fresh towel every night.
Eggs – Both the egg whites and egg yolks have great skin rejuvenating properties. For best effect, take two eggs and separate the white from the yolks. Beat the egg whites gently until they are lightly foamy, then spread the egg white over your face and let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes. The egg white helps to remove oils. After you rinse it off follow with the egg yolks. Mix them together until smooth and then apply to your face. Let it harden and then sit on your face for fifteen to twenty minutes before rinsing off. The nutrients in egg yolks help to regulate skin cell growth, prevent pores from becoming clogged, and regulate oil and bacteria production. This treatment can be used twice a week.

I've heard that honey works wonders for the skin but I didn't know it was used to treat acne. About the towel on the pillow, you could do that or you could just change your pillow case every so often. That will keep the bacteria from building up. Thank you for the tips, Sara!
