Yes! Honey is LOVELY! My hormonal acne always responds to things around the house more than chemicals...they usually seem to make it worse!
Masks made with yogurt, honey, lemon juice, tea tree oil, egg whites, ground oats, and probably a few other things I'm not thinking about always help things calm down. Followed with some baking soda to help clear it all off and some moisturizer, it helps clear a lot of it away within a week! For my skin, at least.
Another thing that might be helpful is a sulfur cream. Sounds weird, but it's SUPER effective at getting rid of problem areas, and those big blemishes you feel before you see!

Holding ice on your zit in a plastic baggy from 5-10 minutes will make it smaller and it will make the red puffiness go away if you have it!:) it's like the only thing that works for me! :))
