A Clear Face in No Time – How to Cure Acne Naturally

December 29th, 2011 Comments off

So you’re in the store about to reach for that $20 acne treatment solution, but wait, why would you do that when there are so many other solutions you still haven’t tried? Well first things first put down the junk food! There have been plenty of studies that show that a healthy diet can improve the way you look and feel. So after you have put down all of the unhealthy snacks, you should look at another important factor, and that is exercise.

I know, I know, who has time for dieting let alone exercise? Well it’s as simple as thirty minutes a day, once you have developed your workout regimen just keep it up. We all know the hardest part of working out is just getting started. It only takes 21 days to start a habit, so if you continue to work out consistently for 21 days you are sure to keep it up because your body will have adjusted to a schedule.

Also going along with working out should be a consistent healthy face cleaning regimen. When we workout we build up a lot of oils and dirt on our faces from sweat. So while we don’t have to buy the most expensive soaps it is important to wash that dirt off of your face at least twice a day.

Many people have no idea that there is such a thing as eating something that can make your face break out, but there is. Sometimes this reaction is caused because of an unknown food allergy. There are many people who just can’t eat too many tomatoes because their face will break out the next day.

The other very important thing that we all should be aware of is our water intake. This is something that we should never be without; our bodies are made up water so we need to constantly replenish the water in our bodies. Drinking a lot of water keeps our face clear and glowing. I’m sure there are plenty of products out there to make a glowing face, but why would you waste your money when you could drink water for free.

Also if you have developed a pimple an old remedy is to use toothpaste or a lemon to dry out the pimple. You usually do this until the pimple comes to a head or until you can see that the pimple is ready to be popped. I know you are in a rush to pop that pimple but do not use your dirty little fingers. Always use two q-tips as you would your fingers to pop that pimple, this keeps all the bacteria under your fingernails from getting into the open area. When all else fails go to your doctor to see what he would recommend.

Clear Your Acne – Naturally!

December 29th, 2011 Comments off

Most people who suffer from acne go out and spend good money on common over-the-counter acne treatment products. The truth is, most of these products are full of chemicals that can actually slow down the healing of acne, and irritate your skin, causing farther breakouts.

When an acne product has 20 ingredients listed on it, it can be hard to know if one of those ingredients is actually stopping you from having success. It can be even harder when you can’t pronounce the ingredient, much less know what it is and how it is going to affect your skin.

Most mainstream acne treatments are not only much more expensive than common household items, but they also don’t always work as well either. With that in mind, I will list some basic household items that can work wonders on clearing up your skin.

Baking soda – A very cheap cooking ingredient that most people have in their homes already, baking soda can be used as a great scrub. The purpose of a scrub is to exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin that can eventually clog pores and lead to acne spots.
To start off, you’ll want to mix a small amount of baking soda with some water for form a paste. Baking soda is very effective as a scrub, so you want to be sure to be extra careful when applying it to your face. Gently massage the paste into your skin for ten to fifteen seconds. Then rinse the baking soda off, and pat your face dry with a clean towel.

Apple Cider Vinegar – Though most people that use vinegar to treat acne use the apple cider form of vinegar, you can also use plain old regular vinegar. Regardless of which type you use, vinegar can be very helpful with it comes to clearing up acne. It can kill off acne causing bacteria, balance your skin’s pH, and absorb extra oil on your skin.

Starting with clean, dry skin, apply diluted vinegar (eight parts water to one part vinegar) directly to your skin with a cotton ball, and leave it on. If you want, you can also use a stronger vinegar solution (say, 2 or 3 parts water to 1 part vinegar), and apply it directly to problem areas, rinsing it off after ten minutes.

Lemon or lime juice can also be substituted for vinegar. Both of these juices are rich in citric acid, and can exfoliate your skin very well, halting the growth of acne spots, as well as fading previous, non-active acne quicker.

Egg Whites – Rich in protein, egg whites can be used as a mask to heal and rebuild your skin. It can also help to absorb excess oil from your skin.

To start off, crack an egg, removing the yolk so that just the egg whites are left behind. Beat these egg whites, and apply them directly to your face. Let it sit for fifteen minutes, and then rinse the egg off.

Oatmeal – As odd as it may seem, oatmeal can absorb unwanted oil and draw out impurities which reside deep in your skin. Cook some plain oatmeal like you would for consumption. Let it cool off, and rub it over your clean skin. Let it sit for a while, like you would a mask, and then rinse off. If you do this on a regular basis, you should begin to start noticing results soon. It may feel funny, but it works!

Tea Tree Oil – TTO is a commonly used all-natural household antiseptic, which you can pick up at most drugstores or supermarkets. You can apply TTO directly to acne spots to kill bacteria, or, if you strongly dilute it with another oil (such as jojoba oil), over your entire face.
Tea tree gel can be easier to apply than the oil, and many are made for applying over large areas of skin, so they aren’t quite as strong as straight TTO and do not need to be diluted.

Pantothenic Acid (Also known as Vit. B5) – Pantothenic acid can be taken in large quantities for the benefit of acne reduction. B5 works by helping your body to metabolize fats which would otherwise be later turned into sebum (oil) and excreted through the skin. Small amounts of B5 won’t help though, and it has to be taken several times a day.
