How to get rid of pimples fast?

Honestly, I don't use any makeup for school. I just put a lip glose that's it. I do put makeup at special occasions like someone's wedding. So I can say I almost don't put makeup on. So there is no reason why I should have pimples because of makeup. I have really small pimples in some places on my face and 2 bigs ones. I just wash my face with warm water and I use a cleanser. I put lotion on afterwards. I barely eat oily food as it can make your face have more pimples. I don't use any medication for my face as I am not allowed. I have these pimples since 1 year and they won't go away. My dad just say not to use any medication or anything for my face as it can be harmful for my age as I am only 15 almost 16. I did try toothpaste for a month but it didn't work!

How can I get rid of these pimples fast? Please don't tell me to put toothpaste on them because it doesn't work because I have tried t once for a month :(.

Please help!

Thanks!

    Unfortunately, at your age, it's hormones that cause breakouts if you're taking care of your skin as well as you seem to be. There's not a lot you can do. You may want to try Pro-active or one of those similar products that are supposed to reduce acne. I understand why your dad wouldn't want you to use anything medication in it, but what he's referring to is Rentin-A or products with a Retinol type of product. Pro-active doesn't have that as far as I know, but you could check into it. Products with retin-A can make your skin susceptible to sun damage. You may also want to try an astringent like lemon juice but I think it's probably hormones. Sorry. :(

    Baking Soda Works Wonders instantly.. Trying Baking Soda with a couple drops (2) of Honey (for added moisture) This is the new thing and very cheap too. Mixed with water, you want it to become almost like pancake batter and then you will need to rub on your face in circular motions.
