Acne is the end of the world for most people including myself. I want
to stay home and away from everyone when I begin to develop acne! I
don't wan't to look in the mirror and I don't even want to be seen on
the street. For a lot of girls, acne is obviously interfering with
confidence levels and begins to play on their minds if they don't find a
solution. With Hormonal changes and other issues in the body, acne is a
part of the natural growing process and almost everybody suffers from
it at some point in their lives. When acne goes over the top, it makes
sense to look at some natural tips which can help your face clear out.
1)
Water & Lemon: I cannot stress enough how important water is as a
remedy for all your problems. Water promotes clear skin, weight loss,
healthy kidneys, good hair, strong nails, low cholesterol, normal blood
pressure and just about a thousand more benefits. Whoever, said drink 8
glasses of water every day knew what they were talking about. Start your
day with a glass of lukewarm water and the juice of half a lemon so
that your bowels have a chance to clear out quickly. A clean stomach and
intestines means good clean healthy looking skin. Apart from drinking
water, a water and lemon enema would greatly help your skin as well.
Over the years, gunk stays behind and collects on the internal lining of
the colon and lukewarm water with lemon juice will help cleanse that
out. Warm water with lemon will help the body get rid of dirt and will
automatically help the body to digest food better and also accept
nutrients from food more easily. This will help with revitalizing the
body and clearing the skin.
2) Keep Everything Clear Of Your Face:
Be careful when you hug and kiss people with acne. The painful truth
here is that if you get up close and personal with people who have acne,
the chance of them giving it to you is very high. Don't touch your face
with your hands and make sure your sheets, pillow cases and anything
that touches your face is clean. Expensive creams and facials will only
help if you keep your face clean and clear of others who are infected
and dirty surfaces. Go to the extent of not even touching your own face
with your own hands. There is a possibility that a pore on your skin may
be open and bacteria is transferred from your hands onto your face.
3)
Turmeric: Turmeric root is antibacterial and anti fungal. If you can
find the root in the Indian store, pound it with a pestle and mortar
with some water till it becomes a fine paste. Make sure you apply it
only onto the head of the pimple with a cotton swab and leave it there
for a few hours. Turmeric will color your skin yellow so only dab a very
tiny bit where you need to.
4) Raw Garlic - No pain no gain!: You
have to be careful with this one. Chop a clove of garlic into half and
rub it on the affected area. Garlic is antibacterial and will clear your
skin out in no time. Be careful because this remedy is going to burn
badly for the first 20 seconds. If you can tolerate the pain, by all
means try this out because it is very very effective.
5) Apple
Cider Vinegar: ACV is the star of all home remedies and has multiple
benefits. Take some on a piece of cotton and smear it onto the pimple
affected area. ACV is used on the skin, in hair and is drunk too.
