acne redness

is there any way to lessen redness & acne quickly without medication?
i really want to know. like a quick acne and redness reducer?
First of all.. do not pick at your acne.. it's a terrible habit and all it does it irritate your skin and worsen your problem. You aren't going to be able to do anything about a huge pimple, it's going to be red no matter what.. but washing with a mild acne cleanser and swabbing (with cotton balls, not toilet paper or towels) on a toner will help calm you skin down. Also, if your skin is sensitive and turns red easily, do not use a washcloth, all that's doing is exasperating your problem further. Use you hands (clean hands) to make a lather and wash.. I promise it's still doing the job. Using a toner also helps to prep your skin if you want to use other acne products (creams, etc.)
