Hi There!
In today's post I will be talking
about few home remedies for acne. I have been using these for my face on daily basis. Acne is one
of the worst nightmares for any woman & I'm going through same. Suddenly my
skin is breaking out. So acne have been haunting us since our teenage days and
sometimes even after. They use form on the face, back, shoulders, neck and
chest. When the pores of the face gets clogged up due to the accumulation of
dead cells and dirt, it leads to acne. It’s pretty common for oily skin types,
but even people with dry and normal skin sometimes face it.
So if you currently suffer from acne and breakouts, try
these home remedies :
1. Sugar scrub - Mix together 3 teaspoons of brown
sugar in 1 teaspoon of honey. Apply all over the face and scrub gently in
circular motion. Once dry after 15 minutes wash off with cold water and
pat dry.
Brown sugar is one of the mildest natural exfoliater. It
removes the dead cells, dirt, sebum and impurities from the pores, which causes
acne.
2. Orange peel pack- Grind a
few pieces of the orange peel to from a paste. Apply all over the face and
leave it for 15 minutes. Rinse off with cool water.
Orange contains large amounts of citric acid and vitamin C,
which refreshes skin and relieves the acne. The orange peel as well as its
juice can be used to treat acne and pimples.
3. Lemon juice
Cut a few lemons and squeeze out the
juice. Apply the juice with a cotton ball directly onto the acne scars on the
face. Allow it to remain for some time and then wash with plain water.
This tends to have a bleaching effect on dark scars. Regular
use of lemons – both internally as part of the diet and externally on the skin
– can help keep your skin healthy and free from scars.
4. Aloe Vera
Wash a leaf of aloe plant and peel
out its outermost green layer to reach the inner jelly-like substance. Scoop
out the jelly with a spoon and apply a little quantity directly onto the
scarred tissue. Repeat this twice a day, leaving the gel on for about half an
hour each time. Wash it off every time with plain water.
The gel-like substance obtained from
the leaves of aloe plant has a magical ability to heal skin problems.
Until next post,
