***

OTC Remedy

This year I am 22 years old and I have been dogged by this since I was 13.  I had imagined that my twenties would bring and end to this curse but it never happened.  I really tried just about everything but nothing was effective.  Several weeks ago while shopping at the local grocery store, I found a holistic preparation and it was a bottle of pills.  I bought this and in only one week my face cleared up totally and I was in the middle of my period to boot!  Everyone knows that a period makes acne worse.  The name of this is Nature’s Cure and I highly recommend it.

***

Dr. Bronner's Soap and Aloe Vera

Before bed thoroughly wash your face with Dr. Bronner’s baby soap (it is a pure castile soap) and then break off a piece of an aloe vera leaf.  Squeeze it till the juice pours out and work this in all over your face.  It works incredibly well and leaves all the skin glowing and clear. 

***

Rooibos Tea Acne Home Remedy

In a cup of boiling hot water soak a tea bag of rooibos tea.  When the water has turned dark, rub the tea bag firmly all over your face like you were exfoliating.  This works really good.  Also drink the tea for general good health.

***

Good Diet Lots of Water

The first thing to realize is that skin blemishes and pustules begin and end with what is on the inside – not the outside.  This means we have to change our eating habits.  Drinking lots of water every day will flush out poisons and toxins.  Use lotions on your face that have no oil. 

***

Lemon Rub

Before bed, take a half of a lemon and rub it all over your face and work it extra good where you have pimples.  Do this for a week and pimples will be no more.  It stings a little.  Another good one is to squeeze a whole lemon into a small bowl and then add a tablespoon of rosewater and a tablespoon of glycerin.  Wash your face well with this mixture.

***

Diet Is the Way

Your body telling you something is not right.  First thing to do is eat mostly whole grains, fruits and vegetables.  Cut the sugar way back or not at all (my sugar fix was mostly from Dr. Pepper), take a good multivitamin from the health food store, and drink a lot of water.  Then look at your attitudes about life that are negative and find a way to be positive.  Happiness is a choice not a right.  This is so important!  This will bring down your stress and you will have some peace of mind which will improve your health overall.  For years I suffered with "facial bloom."  I looked under every rock to find a solution.  The only think I could find was total body – mind health.  This problem is a flashing light that says something is not right and we should take care of it.  Acne is being out of balance on the inside.  Find that balance; that harmony.

***

Aloe Vera

Every night and morning use clear aloe vera gel on your skin.  Wash before reapplying.  It may tingle or even burn a little but this will go away by the time it dries.

***

Beta Carotine

If you take 10 Beta Carotine 15 mg soft gels (pro vitamin A 25,000), inside of 24 hr.s  you’ll notice a scab formation on the skin inflammation.  By the 48 to 72 hour time frame, the condition will be in an advanced healing stage.

***

Sea Salt

Wash your face and towel dry before bed.  Next make a salty paste of two parts sea salt and one part warm water.  Put the paste on the blemish, completely covering it.  Then allow the paste to dry.  This salt paste hardens and will remain on you face until you remove it the next morning when washing.  The bacteria in your skin will be killed and that nasty blemish will dry up by the salty mixture.  Go ahead and try this – it will work like a charm!!

***

Steam and Witch Hazel

A good natural treatment is to take a pot of water, allow it to boil and add salt to create more steam.  While not getting to close to the hot water or fire, allow the steam to hit your face.  Use two cotton balls and put some witch hazel on them.  Take these and wipe all over your face.  Witch hazel is also helpful in treating cuts and burns.  At least once a week clean your cosmetic brushes and applicators using an anti-bacterial soap.  You’ll be able to keep bacteria and makeup build up at bay.

***

Sunshine

If you lay in the sun or use a tanning bed, the sun or tanning bed will dry up the problem.

***

Glycerin Soap Cure

Alright then.  I have attempted everything under God’s sun.  I came upon this home remedy for acne and pimples strictly by chance.  This is really simple.  All you have to do is use glycerin soap.  It will do away with the zits, the itchy skin, dryness and essentially you wind up with comfortable, beautiful skin.  Since day one I have had issues with itching and dryness on my skin and the glycerin soap cured that also.  No more do I use lotion on my body or face to try to keep my skin moisturized.  I am not having to put any oil on my face as it is perfectly balanced and my makeup looks good all day.  My skin feels good instead of being painful and itchy.  I use no other toners or products at all.  It’s great!  The big soap makers take the glycerin out of their soap and that causes the dry skin and other problems.  The then put the glycerin in other things like lotion.  Basically the sell you a soap that makes problems and the lotion to cure the problems.  What a racket!

***

Shampoo

For many years my husband was afflicted.  Some people simply have it on their face and other people have it all over their body – this was my husband.  He tried just about everything. I took up the sword determined to find a good solution.  One day at the grocery store, I reached for a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo.  We found that washing his skin with this cleared up his face in just a few days!  It was a miracle!  My husband is so so so happy about this.  To use it as an acne home remedy, put the shampoo on any areas that have a problem and work it in.  If your acne is really bad, you can do this twice a day.
