Non-medicated– meaning not containing salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, triclosan or any other medication.

Any one had success using ONLY a cleanser OR ONLY a cleanser and toner to clear acne.

What did you use?
How did you use it (regimen)?

Would it be bad to put Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide (10%) on zits to clear them up quickly?
and if not could I put them both on at the same time?

I am 17 years old..
I have acne.
I would like to go to the store today or tomorrow and buy some things to help it..
And I need some suggestions.
Not proactive or acne-free.
No harsh chemicals to subdue it.
I need to cure it.
Vitamins/foods/healthy skin wash without benzoyl or salicylic acid.
Anything will help.
Please!
Thanks guys(and girls)

Above my lip, there is an area that is red and slightly bumpy. I KNOW a zit is just waaaiiting to sprout. How can I stop it dead in it's tracks?

*I have tried salicylic acid, toothpaste and rubbing alcohol in the past. (Did not work)
