Is there a home remedy that can quickly clear up my acne?

Tea tree oil: Tea tree oil works similarly to benzoyl peroxide but has less side-effects. Other home remedies are aloe vera, toothpaste, apple cider vinegar (diluted with water before applying), baking soda, green tea.

No: ..But 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Gel (e.g. Clearasil) is inexpensive, and widely available at drug stores and supermarkets.
