Depends how quickly you want to get rid of them, but Clearasil face wash actually does the job it says it'll do and clears up those nasties in 3 days.

i think you will find that they will go away if you leave them within 3 days without the aid of clearasil..

Use nose strips, usually found in the skincare range in most chemist departments.
General acne advice

On body: Glycolic acid 7% lotion & benzoyl peroxide 2.5% lotion

On face: benzoyl peroxide 2.5% lotion & moisturiser

Remember to exfoliate lightly beforehand
