Multiple cause: A few factors cause acne. See link below. If OTC medications don't work, or your acne is severe, see a physician for prescription meds. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/acne/basics/causes/con-20020580

Pimples: At age 18 your pimples are probably due to acne caused by your raging hormones. You can use benzoyl peroxide for two weeks. If no relief consult a dermatologist
