Best Natural Cures For Pimples

Author: Trying to treat acne naturally is a popular choice. Consider the fact that many of the natural treatments today can be found in your own kitchen. Other products can easily be purchased in grocery stores or natural food stores. For most people, trying a natural remedy to cure their acne is inexpensive and without side effects. Always be careful about the methods and products used to cleanse your skin. Consider the following in curing your acne naturally.
Today, we can find soaps that contain aloe vera, tea tree oil, olive oil, green tea and many others. These ingredients have become well known for their healing properties. For instance, green tea extract possesses anti-inflammatory properties. Aloe vera is known to be a soothing ingredient even helping sunburn. Soaps containing sulphur can help to dry out the sebaceous glands but don’t overdo it. Over washing the face can lead to the sebaceous gland producing more sebum and in turn repeating the vicious cycle of oily skin. Vinegar can be an excellent cleanser when it is mixed with a little salt and massaged lightly on the acne or pimples.
We also know that certain juices can be excellent astringents. Lemon juice used sparingly can help reduce oil on the surface of the skin. A mixture of one part of honey to two parts of lemon juice can be massaged on the affected areas with a cotton ball. Papaya juice can also be applied to acne for a refreshing treatment. I have read instances where mint juice is applied overnight also.
Some of the best natural cures for pimples are ingredients from the kitchen or bathroom. These can be used to make a paste. A mixture of toothpaste and milk of magnesia can be dabbed on the skin for a mask. Leave on until paste dries and then wash off with tepid water, scrubbing gently. Magnesium helps to regulate sebum and can be quite drying. Only use twice a week on dry skin but it can be used almost daily if you have oily skin. Milk of Magnesia can reduce oil production and usually takes the redness pimples cause out of the equation. It is also not a very expensive product and is easy to find. If you don’t have Milk of Magnesia, try calamine lotion with the toothpaste instead. You can apply this mixture to the pimple and leave on overnight.
Always be careful about the methods and ingredients used in curing acne naturally. Choose on the side of gentle cleansers and never scrub too harshly. Remember not to over wash the skin. Pay attention to your diet making sure to get lots of minerals and vitamins like B, C, and E. Be sure to always drink lots of water.

Hi, I’ve found your stuff pretty helpful but you can improve it by answering my question – )) Does lemon and sugar really work to cure acne? Watched a video on youtube that said washing your face with organic lemons and sugar (any kind) accelerates the removal of dead skin cells and helps to keep skin bacteria off of the face to cure acne. My question is if you have gotten any results. If you can answer the question please give some details. Thanks in advance.
Hi-
I have used lemon juice as an astringent and it does work to remove oils. The lemon juice/sugar mixture is an excellent exfoliant but you must be very careful if you use it on your face. I have only used this scrub on my hands. I honestly don’t know if it is a cure for acne as I think it takes more than that. Facial skin is tender and you must be careful when using any scrubs on your face but mild exfoliants are okay. Again, I have only used this mixture on my hands – it’s wonderful.
