home cures for acne please!

Grow out of it. Worked for me.

 

Drinking herbal teas is one of the simplest natural remedies for acne. They are quite effective in improving the condition of your skin if you drink them every day. For example you could drink

one or two cups of chamomile tea on a daily basis. Chamomile has anti-inflammatory properties and will reduce the inflammation of the skin caused by acne.
To make the tea combine 20g of dry yellow dock with 40g each of dry red clover and ribwort plantain. Pour boiling water over 2 teaspoons of the mix and infuse for 10 minutes.
Herbal tinctures can be applied externally. To prevent spots from growing apply neat calendula (marigold) tincture directly onto the spot with a cotton bud. Do this 2-5 times a day.

 

if you have greasy skin, my advice is egg whites. my sister has always been pretty unlucky and did this - i tried it and not i will use the method is i break out ever.

just break and egg, and remove the yoke. whisk the egg whites, then apply it on your face. just leave it to dry

i know it sounds weird, but it is a great way to keep greasiness at bay. furthering this, is does help dry up some pretty bad spots.

if anything - this method will help stabilise, or cease breakouts whilst you deal with what you have. vitamin a is good face your face - the only drawback is it feels awful when drying.

edit: this is an old thread. didn't realise - hopefully you grew out of it lol.

 

I ve also read somewhere that cleaning it with oil works. by olive oil
So i ve also heard its not healty to wash it often getting its natural oil. And plus those cosmetics just dont do anything good. Chemicals in them are another problem.
I ve recently started baking soda myself, and vinagar (thats apple cider vinegar) I dont wash it with soap anymore (sebamed was what i used and it was ok for me though)

 

white flouride toothpaste zaps 'em, just put it on before you go to sleep.

 

1. drink plenty of water
2. stop wanking so much
3. stop using any kind of soap on your skin
4. wash your face when necessary in warm water, a little as once a week is sufficient depending on what climate you live in.
5. using sweet almond oil to moisturise it, occasionally with a little tea tree oil. Massage it gently into your skin after washing in lukewarm water in a circular motion with the palms of you hands. This will get the blood flowing and allow your skin to cleanse itself naturally
6. exercise regularly and let your skin naturally sweat out all the bacteria which causes it
7. avoid too many sugary drinks/snacks
8. make sure you are getting enough salt in your diet
9. ignore all face creams on the market which claim to cure acne

tea tree oil is the best

 

Its Good Recipe For Your Acne Problem
You should only ever use a maximum of 5% essential oils so it isn’t too strong for your skin. A great acne serum recipe is 1 Tablespoon of almond oil, a tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil and a few drops of tea tree and lavender oil.
Apply twice daily as an excellent acne remedy

 

I struggled with acne for years. Problem is, for most of it I would just blast my face with strong acne medications with salicylic acid.... this would dry my skin out but do little to curb the outbreaks.
This is what worked for me;
first off, drop all the special face washes and creams and foams and products!
drink LOTS of tea and water; can't stress this enough, the important part.
Don't SCRUB your skin, or use anything abrasive; this just irritates the skin which makes it want to break out more.
If you must wash, use a gentle soap and soft washcloth. Only wash in the morning and/or night, or whenever your face gets especially dirty/greasy from sweating, touching etc.
