Pimples & face wash

My 13 year old son is HIGHLY allergic to PG. He's just gotten his first pimple and I suspect more are on the way. Any suggestions for PG free products for both face wash and pimple cream. I grew up using "Clearasil"any time I got a pimple ... no idea what "natural" or PG free products might be out there. Thanks!

Because the skin is highly indicative of what's going on INSIDE the body, a clean diet is extremely important (especially one that avoids ALL glycols). I would go the essential oils route when needed who.com.au/essential-oils-f... Best wishes!

Tea tree oil and/or witch hazel (check bottle to make sure there are no glycols in it.)
