Natural Acne Cures – Clean and Scrub Acne breakouts start when excess bacteria and oil clog up the pores and follicles. So keeping the skin clean and the pores clear is very important. The problem is too many people (in effort to overcome excess oil) wind up over-washing and over-drying the skin causing even more oil production and more breakouts. That’s why you must use a pH balanced; soothing herbal based gentle face wash. Using harsh cleansers is the most common reason for acne to become even more severe.

In addition to a pH balanced cleanser, you need to exfoliate to get rid of dead skin cells and clear open the pores. One great natural facial scrub is a combination of baking soda and water or sugar and water. Mix small amounts of water to a handful of sugar or baking soda until you have a paste-like consistency. Lightly massage this paste all over your face about once week. Your skin will feel incredible! This is also great for acne scar healing and reducing the appearance of fine lines. It is advisable to test this out on a small area of skin first and see how it reacts.

Homemade Acne Treatments – Facial Masks Facial masks can be very healing for acne prone skin. Here is one to try if you have oily skin: Oily Skin – Egg White Lemon Acne Mask – Beat two egg whites. Then add 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. – Use a cotton ball to apply this mask where you have acne breakouts.

Severe Acne Treatment – Use Salicylic Acid Acne While all natural treatments are great sometimes we all need a more convenient natural acne treatment that we use daily or when we travel. Consider using a natural sugar based glycolic/salicylic acid acne treatment daily. These acids are very powerful (yet still gentle to the skin) in dissolving clogged pores, excess oils and reducing whiteheads/blackheads. They can also help to minimize pores and wrinkles/fine lines, and stimulate collagen production. Visit Natural Old Home Remedies for more information.
