6 Natural Home Remedies That May Help To Improve Your Acne

 

You you have been struggling to cope with your acne by using over the counter medications with little or no success, you may want to consider the following all natural home remedies.

 

Not only may any or all of these remedies improve your condition, but they will only cost you mere pennies as opposed to tens and hundreds of dollars.

 

If you have no success with any of these treatments, do not get discouraged. I know that it is easier said than done. But the only way to finding a successful treatment for your skin condition is to keep searching.

 

In any event, I hope that you will find some hope in one of the following remedies.

 

Good Luck.

 

Baking soda and toothpaste
These products are often recommended as quick home remedies for acne. While some find they work like a charm, others have negative reactions, so use them with care. If you have sensitive skin, try baking soda first. Just take a little baking soda/water paste or plain toothpaste (not gel or whitening toothpaste), dab it on your blemishes, leave it for fifteen to twenty minutes, then gently wash it off. Don't try leaving it on overnight before you know how skin will react, though. Some find this treatment tingles or burns a bit, but if causes real pain,  wash it off immediately because it can leave burn marks or even scars on some skin types.

2) Mint
Besides smelling nice, mint also works as a gentle and quick home remedy for acne. Pick up some fresh mint leaves from a grocer or farmers' market. Squeeze the juice from the leaves and apply it to your face before you go to bed. If you have trouble getting the juice out, mash the leaves into a paste with water and leave this paste on your face for 15 minutes or so.

 

3) Lemon and rosewater
Another natural home remedy with a pleasant scent is lemon. The simplest way to use lemon as a quick acne remedy is just to rub a piece on your face. For a stronger treatment, mix fresh-squeezed lemon juice (from a lemon, not from a bottle) with rose water, which can be found in Middle Eastern foods shops, and apply to affected skin. Leave this on for half an hour, then rinse it off. Lighter cases of acne may clear in a few days, while tougher cases may take a few weeks to completely disappear. Some people mix in cinnamon or coriander, but use these spices with caution as they can irritate sensitive skin.

4) Green tea and carrots

Green tea has anti-bacterial roperties and the antioxidants it contains have a proven ability to prevent acne. To take advantage of this, boil a carrot (also know for their antioxidant properties) until it's soft enough to mash. Then make a cup of green tea and mix the tea and mashed carrot to form a paste. Put this paste on your blemishes and leave it on for approximately 15 minutes.

 
5) Oranges and eggs
To turn orange peels into a quick home remedy for acne, grind the peels and mix them with water to form a paste. Apply this paste to the affected parts of your face and leave it on twenty or thirty minutes. Another acne treatment using oranges is a mix of orange juice (again, from an orange, not a bottle) and egg white. Apply this to your face for 15 minutes to help clear the pores.


6
) Garlic
Garlic both disinfects and acts as an astringent. This natural treatment works even on persistent forms of adult acne. Just cut open a garlic clove and rub it gently on your skin to cover the blemishes with juice. It may take a few treatments for the acne to disappear, but you should see improvements within days.

The above remedies may be great for treating some acne symptoms and clearing your skin temporarily, bu they may not serve as cures.


Acne is treatable for the long run. But you have to discover WHY you have the condition. Once you get at the root of the problem, then you can set about truly curing your condition.

 

You should never stop trying to cure your acne. If you stop treating it you can be left with scars and no one wants that.


Although there are many pharmaceutical medications out there that treat acne, none are really presented as cures except maybe Accutane which is very toxic and it may on me a temporary fix.

 

You should consider serious diet and lifestyle changes as out lined in the ebook Acne Free In 3 Days.
