Home Acne Remedies
Acne is one of the most hated enemies of pre-teens, teens, and adults who suffer from it day after day. The acne remedy industry however benefits greatly from the pain endured by the above mentioned. Billions of dollars yearly are spent in hopes of finding that one true miracle that will once and for all end the acne battle. What many don’t realize is that instead of spending money on over the counter and even some prescribed treatments for this annoying problem, the best acne remedies may just be in their homes. The best natural way to try healing your skin may sound like a cliché but, it starts from within.
- Try removing oily foods from your diet for one to two weeks and test this theory yourself. Removing excess oils will eliminate the promotion of hormone imbalances that cause breakouts.
- Another home remedy that will cost you little to nothing is a proper daily cleansing of your face. A mild face soap and water is ideal for this. Avoid using soaps that don’t have moisturizers and that are not intended for your face because they strip your face of the natural oils that are produced. Just like too much oil can be unhealthy for your skin the same can be said for too little oil.
- Plain toothpaste applied to pimples and left to work overnight can sometimes act as drying agent, absorbing excess oils, and promoting clearer skin. One of the best active ingredients in over the counter product is salicylic acid; another acid that can help with acne is citrus acid.
- Try using the juice from a lime to cover your problem areas before heading to bed and then wash it off the next morning. Be careful with this if your skin is sensitive.
- Finally, drink more water. This brings it back full circle with starting from within. Drinking water is not only healthy for your body it is also healthy for your skin. Get in the recommended eight cups of water daily and you will more than likely see a decrease in acne outbreaks. Unfortunately acne is something that most will deal with at some point in their lives; the fortunate part is that you don’t have to go broke to treat it. Before contributing to the already rich OTC industry try these home remedies instead. You just might discover your acne cure in a counter in your home.
