The Best Homemade Acne Treatment

By: shawn parker Home | Health-and-Fitness | Beauty


I think that we can all agree that the number one way to maintain a nice complexion requires keeping your skin clean, proper nutrition, exercise, and lots of water. Even though these techniques do help to prevent acne there are just times when it's inevitable and you need a Homemade Acne Treatment. Thousands of teens as well as adults are attacked by this disease every single day.

Over the counter medicines have dramatically improved over the years but sometimes their cost can be out of reach for a lot of people. Not only that, some of the chemicals that are in these medicines can irritate skin, making the acne condition worse than when it started. Some of the over the counter treatments just don't work for some people. There are a number of different Homemade Acne Treatments available and I'm going to share some of them with you now.

The best Homemade Acne Treatment is to keep your skin free of oils, makeup, dirt and bacteria. Make sure you wash your face twice a day and as a special measure try using a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol to clean your face before bedtime. The alcohol does two things; it helps to dry out the skin and also kills bacteria causing elements. We all know that bacteria is the major contributor to acne so keeping it away from your face is very important.

Be careful not to over use alcohol because it can dry out your skin which can backfire and cause more acne. Most of the time we can feel an outbreak before it has come full circle. In this case make sure to use alcohol on that area only 3 times a day.

There are facial masks that you can make out of things that most households have. The first is an oatmeal mask that is made by adding water to it until you have a thick mask which you should use one in the morning and once at night. Another effective Homemade Acne Treatment is a mask made from honey and apples. Once you have the apple grated into a fine pulp add four tablespoons of honey and apply to the infected area for 10 minutes.
